I am a fan of Beijing Duck, so I had tried many restaurants but I found this Restaurant served many sauces and duck was very crunchy and match with sauce. The sheet flour is a lot and good. I don’t know how to say more...but I really missing it now.More

Very good food and service at the Xihe. Really enjoyed the Peking Duck and the shrimp dishes were very good. Close to the Hilton Beijing (easy walk) and well worth the visit

Went here after visiting the summer palace. We were 8 in our group and prebooked a private room. The duck was great and many in the group thought this was the best of the 6 duck places we are in during our Beijing and China...trip. Service was great and we had a person in the group with gluten allergy and they handle that fine. Prices was reasonable. Would visit again.More

Some unique dishes, including flagship Beijing Duck. It's really impossible to appreciate the food, as the service is so rough. The sullen & unresponsive staff, some shouting to one another over the floor area sure to drive out the few individuals making an effort. Comical...at times, but sad really. Hesitant to return. NOTE: Cramped seating & small tables. Not suited to large group (6+ persons)More

Every time we come to China we try different places for Peking Duck and last night we got to try Xihe Yayuan. Place is huge and very crowded. The pre duck apps were mostly pretty good especially a mushroom carpaccio. The star of the show...of course was their Peking Duck. Super flavorful and spectacularly crispy crust. Served with both green and white pancakes which were plentiful. Their choice of sauces was excellent although I wish they would have refilled the hoisin sauce a couple of more times. Other dishes were good but the duck was the star. Of all the places I've been to, this was my favorite Peking Duck experience and I can't wait to come back. Pricey, but worth it!!!More

The duck they use is not as fatty as their branch in Singapore which uses Irish duck. But the preparation and presentation is similar. The duck liver sandwich cut into little hors d'oeuvres is also delicious. My only gripe is that they did not ask...the diners how they wanted the rest of the duck to be prepared, unlike in Singapore where they actually give a few options, such as deep fried in oatmeal.More

The food was freshly made, the atmosphere excellent and the service could not be better. Professional and also well priced.

A great place to try authentic Beijing Duck & Baijiu (a local distilled wine/liquor kind of like Japanese Sake). The place has large round tables with lazy susan tops that makes sharing food easy in big groups.

Firstly - book a day in advance, but get a Chinese friend to do it since the staff's English is variable, it's a busy restaurant because it's good especially on Friday - Saturday, we were there on a Wenesday and there were no free tables...until after 8:00. If you fancy trying a drop-in and fail, there are other really good restaurants in the area. The restaurant is built in the classical Hutong style with a large central courtyard surrounded by rooms, the rooms have been converted into private rooms for parties, kitchen and restrooms, the central courtyard has been glass covered and is used for general dining. The decor is classical Beijing with a painted and decorated arch as the central feature of the restaurant. It makes a very congenial space for socialising and eating. Eight of us went this time to celebrate a friend's birthday. As usual the service was very professional, the table comfortable, the restaurant was comfortably warm despite -4 degrees Celcius outside. The food is just delicious, as a westerner expect the courses to arrive when they're ready so don't order too much food because it will arrive before the duck and you'll be too full to really enjoy it. Likewise ask for the bones, the bones offer some delicious scraps for nibbling, they'll also have the head of the duck, split and placed on the table, trust me the brains are delicious - if you have the courage try them. We found that there was not enough wraps for the amount of duck and other fillings, ask for more they'll bring you them post haste. The only down side is it's a bit difficult to find if you are unfamiliar with the area, Baidu maps mark the spot but only in Chinese. If you are using GPS put the Chinese name 羲和雅苑北京烤鸭 into Baidu Maps (map.baidu.com) and you'll get a number of hits, the one you want is in the North West near the junction of lines 4 and 10. From Haidianhuangzhuang metro station it's about a 10-15 minute walk past the Sinosteel tower.More

The Duck was cooked and roasted to perfection. The aroma and fragrance of the wood is clear on the taste. Service was fantastic as well. Best Beijing Duck I have ever had.

My husbands co worker who is a local recommended this restaurant. Although he had never been it came highly recommend to him. It was a beautiful place. The duck was amazing. So crispy, so juicy. The duck came with 3 sauces which were all delicious....A thick soy sauce with what seemed like pop rocks, you had that with just the skin. It melted in your mouth. Amazing. Then the breast meat with a stone mustard. So yummy. Then the thought and legs. You eat that with a thin pancake and plum sauce. Oh so good. This is a not to be missed spot.More

This is a remarkably good Chinese restautant, with exquisite Beijing duck - by far the best I have ever tasted. Unmiissable!! All the other dishes are wonderful, but the duch is outstanding. Highly recommended
