Simon's Peking Duck 197B Middleborough Road, Box Hill South, Victoria 3128

"The Peking duck set menu is delicious! Loved the crispy duck skin with the pancake, absolutely full of duck flavour, goes really well with the cucumber, spring onion and special sauce, all wrapped inside a thin pancake (the pancake was on the thin side tonight but I didn’t mind it because the flavour is all about the duck!) If you like spicy, ask for chilli oil, it takes the dish to the next level! The second course of stir fried bean shoot with duck meat had a wok hay flavour, yum! I preferred this over the noodles. Lastly the duck done soup was really flavourful and tasty, pieces of tofu inside the soup. Note: you only get one bowl of soup per person, even if you ordered more than one duck. Overall we had a great time. The waiter entertained us by throwing the pancake onto our plates, very interactive and entertaining! This is the busiest restaurant in the area so make sure to book ahead so you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommended if you love duck. Great service, will be back!"

"I love peking duck. I have just recently gone to Simon's for about 2 times. The 1st time I had lunch there and the duck was so delicious. The pancakes were thin but nice. But the 2nd time, we went there for dinner time, 8pm, the pancakes were quite hard, not tasty like the first time. Overall, should go there for lunch as less busy and better food."

"Peking duck was pretty good, guy who served it to us was nice and smiley but some of the other wait staff were not as friendly.. noodle serving size however was pretty dismal considering one serve was meant to feed 2-3 people, and costly too. On the bright side it was 90% veggies and 10% noodles? So while the atmosphere and decor here is better, I reckon Old Kingdom had a more generous serving of duck and noodles at a better price point. Check me out on insta @_chewrious for more food reviews!! :)"

"This is the best place for having peking duck. I remember back in 1996, Simon taught me how to wrap the pecking deck (3 o’clock rule!). I will always remember him as the entertainer and king of Peking duck!. The food, the place and the staffs are outstanding! Thank you"

"If there is a negative score, I would like to give a negative score. Trust me, DO NOT GO! The service is absolutely shocking, same as the rough food like street food level. Except 2 duck options on the menu 3 veggie dishes can be chosen, nothing else on the menu is available, at all! Even beer, one option only. I was served by the boss, who is absolutely the rudest witness i ever met. Even just only two duck options, she served the wrong one. And insist on I order the wrong one and want to charge me extra for fix it. Regarding the duck, I am highly suspect those people who wrote positive reviews was paid for the review or never have Peking (Beijing) duck before at all. The meat slices form the duck was out of shape just like did by my 8 years old girl. And the meat was way too thick as Beijing duck. The spring onion was not even sliced, but simply chops. The cucumbers……my god, do not known how to tell u how badly prepared. The duck is burned (see attached photos) All cup, bowl and dish are unhealthy plastic, oh, the spoon too, and they are chipped! The spoon used for sauce is 50/$2 disposable plastic spoon. OMG. There r just so much I want to say about this shop. I think they must get too much money from the VIC gov during COVID, and They should just be shut down."
