We did not realize there was no in-place seating at this restaurant, so that was a bit off-putting. But np. We aint fussy and found a lovely park with picnic tables n pavilions nearby. Menu is slick, animated and well-lit. The whole area is crammed with boxes, deep freezers and debris. I get being carry-out only and not having to deal with the mess and annoyance of customers is absolutely preferable to in-house. However, the general chaos here just feels --- weird. Aside from that, I got the seafood delight. SO got the garlic chicken. He was vexed he'd inadvertently chosen chicken that wasn't deep fried *eye roll* the meals didn't take long to prepare. The owners/staff/IDK were exceptionally nice and offered plasticware and brought the meals to us soon as they were ready, so that was a very kind gesture. My shrimp was fab and I loved all the fresh crunchy veggies.

I selected this place because an UPS employee recommended it. THE FOOD IS AWEFUL!!! As a Chicagoan, I've had delicious authentic Chinese food from the city's Chinatown. Beijing is not delicious, tasty, nor is it authentic. The food was so bad that my 15-year-old son, who eats anything except olives, spit out the yellow rice and refused to eat more. I ordered beef fried rice for my husband. He said the beef 'is hamburger and never order anything else from that place.' No, they were not happy nor satisfied with their food. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I will.not be fooled a second time.

Originally I wanted Jade Garden, but found out they are closed on Sundays. I figured I would give Beijing a try and did a pick-up order. I went in and ordered, staff was very friendly, and they had the food ready in at 10 minutes. Everything was fresh and delicious, but it was a little pricer compared to some other places. I will definitely go back again. *Note: If you place an order through their own actual website, their prices are higher than if you just go in and order - that is why I gave 4 instead if 5 stars.
