About Peking Duck House

Suburban Melbourne diners skip the trek into Chinatown for Peking Duck House’s generous duck feasts and cooked-to-order dim sum. The signature banquet cuts straight to the point: crisp skin and juicy duck meat carved onto a wooden serving tray, bundled into thin pancakes with hoisin, cucumber, and spring onions. The feast stretches further across second courses of wok-tossed duck noodles, crisp san choy bow, or shredded duck soup. Come the weekend, the dining room turns toward a relaxed, checklist-style yum cha where bamboo steamers arrive straight from the kitchen without the usual pushcart rush.

  • Multi-course Peking duck banquets: Peking duck banquets pair crisp, meaty carvings and thin pancakes with second courses like stir-fried duck noodles and san choy bow.
  • Made-to-order weekend yum cha: Weekend lunch features made-to-order dim sum ticked off a checklist menu across an unhurried, single daily sitting.
  • Attentive neighborhood hospitality: Staff keep tea pots topped up and deliver unhurried, patient hospitality for lively family tables.

  • Distinctive Table Carving & Presentation

    Carved with generous, meaty slices rather than pure skin and fat, the duck arrives at the table on a custom wooden duck platter.

    The wooden carrier tray, with the duck, is super cute and unique.

  • Cooked-to-Order Weekend Dim Sum

    Weekend yum cha operates from an ordering checklist where every dim sum basket arrives freshly steamed or fried rather than circulating on pre-cooked carts.

    Everything is made-to-order. Just tick off what you want from the menu and it comes out fresh and hot to your table.

  • Unhurried Three-Hour Yum Cha Sittings

    Unlike standard dim sum venues that enforce tight 60-to-90-minute table limits, guests enjoy an unhurried single weekend session spanning up to three hours.

    Unlike most AYCE spots that limit you to 90 minutes, here you actually get a full 3 hours to sit back, relax, and enjoy

  • Family-Welcoming Dining Dynamics

    Warm, accommodating front-of-house staff make family groups with young children feel immediately comfortable and welcomed.

    What really made the visit extra special was the staff, they were friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome with our little one.

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful presentation details and unhurried hospitality that elevate Cantonese dining in Bentleigh East.

  • Sculpted Duck-Shaped Serving Tray

    Carved duck cuts are presented to the table on a custom sculpted duck-shaped wooden carrier tray rather than conventional banquet platters.

  • Unhurried 3-Hour Dining Window

    Rather than operating on standard 60- to 90-minute table turns, weekend all-you-can-eat yum cha runs across an unhurried, single 3-hour sitting.

  • Checklist Made-to-Order Dim Sum

    Dim sum is freshly steamed and fried to order using a checklist system, avoiding the lukewarm holding times typical of roaming pushcarts.

  • Hands-On Table Hospitality

    The owner and front-of-house staff take time to visit tables, personally talk guests through the dessert menu, and warmly welcome diners with toddlers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the Peking duck set, and how large is it?

The signature Peking duck set comes with carved duck pieces and thin pancakes with condiments, plus your choice of two additional duck dishes, such as fried noodles, duck fried rice, san choy bow, or soup. The sets are generous enough to satisfy two to four diners.

How does the weekend all-you-can-eat yum cha work?

All-you-can-eat yum cha runs during lunch on Saturdays and Sundays. Instead of pushcarts, dishes are cooked to order from an order checklist. While Peking duck is not included in the set buffet price, half or whole ducks can be ordered separately.

Should I book a table in advance?

Reservations are highly recommended, especially for weekend yum cha sessions which fill up quickly. The restaurant is reservable for dine-in meals.
