I've been going to PGI since the early 1990's. Whether you eat in or carry out you won't be dissapointed by the quality of the food. I love their Peking Duck.

I used to live in Northern Va. and have since moved to Augusta, Ga. You don't know how lucky you are to have such a good Chinese Rest. There is nothing close in this part of the south. I miss Robert and Eddie. They are the owners and really work at being the best.
