Arnold Palmer, half & half, tea... whatever you call it just don't call it nasty. Peter's has great food but the half & half is even greater! I grew up playing on Maple Ave and Peter's has always held it down. From crab sticks to 3piece wings and fries this is your spot to get a good bite for the right price.Service is always quick you won't wait a long time, and since it's a small carry out, there's standing room only. You order at the window and they'll call you once your order is ready. The interior walls has the menus enlarged for you to choose your food from along with the prices. You can also call and order ahead on the phone. Love them!

Chicken wings were good, service was typical Asian carry out, I didn't personally like their jumbo sauce it was too sweet and very bright red

Had not been to Peter's Sub Shop in many years (since moving from Takoma Park) and decided to grab lunch AND dinner there this week! This place is truly a neighborhood gem. They have a vast menu! Food is always fresh and on point. And the folks are always so friendly and gracious! I've loved this place for 25+ years!P.S: try their egg foo young entree - any meat option - so, so GOOD! Always my fav!

Always quick, always fresh and hot. Classic carry-out spot. I like to get Peter's wings every one in a while. Call ahead and pick up at arrival most of the time ( that type of efficiency is uncommon these days). They have tickets payment options. Not a good place to sit with a large group. Plan accordingly.

So I placed a phone order, I ordered 5pc wing with combination fried rice, 5pc wing with regular fried rice and another order of 5pc wing with regular fried rice. The lady told me 7 mins. I was like 7 mins. As soon as she said that in my mind I was like yeah I'm not getting fresh food. So my total was $53.20. I gave them $5 tip when I picked up my food. I wish I just didn't call them at all. When I tell you the food wasn't fresh at all. The wings were so old. The bones were snapping because they had been fried too many times. My rice was sooo hard and it was warm. My combination rice, the shrimp was soooo fishy like it had been sitting out for days. This place is truly hit or miss. If you order make sure you tell them fresh food. I'm definitely contacting my bank and telling them to dispute the transaction. I am so disappointed. I won't be eating here for a while!

Worst Chinese-American food I have ever had! I am 60 years old and have had a ton of great, inexpensive Chinese-American food in my life. I think of it as comfort food with lots of great flavors, but this was truly horrible. It was so bad that we threw out everything after just a few bites of each item. We ordered it through Uber Eats. The delivery guy did a great job, he got it to us fast, and it was packaged well.The high reviews are puzzling. There is no way they had the same food as we had. Either they did not have the usual cook last night, or they used old food that was not cooked well.Egg rolls: Very boring and not crispy at all. The inside was a bland filling of "I have no idea what this is." No discernible bean sprouts, veggies... just some white/yellow filling.Fried pork wonton: This should always be a nice contrast of crispy fried wonton surrounding a tasty meat morsel inside. However, our wonton was greasy, flimsy (not crisp), and the meat had an old, untasty flavor. I could not help but think this was either old fried wonton they took from the freezer and fried for 2 minutes less time than it should, then let it sit in the grease, or they took leftover fried wonton and popped in the microwave first. I could only picture Gordon Ramsay of "Kitchen Nightmares" screaming at the owners and throwing away the food after trying this.General Tso's Chicken: It is advertised as "hot and spicy." This was bland with no spice/heat whatsoever. It was barely distinguishable from the Kung pao chicken.Kung pao chicken: Same as above. Advertised as "hot and spicy." It was slightly better than the General Tso's because at least it had some more vegetables that added some variety. But we still had to throw it out. If you are going to be eating a lot of extra calories, it should at least be tasty calories.Chicken egg foo young: The grease was so dominant that it stole the show. Good egg foo young should be tasty egg with delicious onions, mushrooms, meat, etc, with a slightly crispy browned surface. However, like the wonton, it was just too grease soaked as if they made a whole bunch of these, let them sit in their grease, and reheated them as ordered.Fried rice: How can you get this wrong? First, the color was unusual. It was yellowish-colored rice. I thought, "OK, maybe they used saffron to give it some extra flavor." But no, again, it was barely tasty. We got fried rice instead of white rice because our white rice is often not used up, and we throw away the leftovers, while with good fried rice, you can pop it in the fridge and enjoy it on its own heated up. This did not taste good by itself at all.I doubt that there is anyone named Peter still associated with the restaurant. Otherwise, he would never allow such food to be served to his customers. I suspect someone bought it from a "Peter," he probably had a great restaurant, and now it is going downhill. I was hoping for some delicious food after reading all the reviews. There are some similar to mine (bland, greasy) ... I wish I had believed those and ordered elsewhere instead.We essentially threw $100 into the trash (at least some of it went to the driver as a tip).

Price 5/5I ordered the wings 5/5, the sesame chicken 4/5, Szechuan steak 2/5 and the egg roll 4/5. So overall, I put the food that I've tried so far at about a 4. I would definitely return for other menu selections. Food was prepared fast and was hot. Only complaint is they gave me no napkins or utensils. It's definitely a to go spot only.

I wanted to have some Chinese food for lunch, and the glowing reviews convinced me to check this place out. It was around 12:30pm, so I ordered the orange chicken lunch special and requested very spicy. The menus posted here are old, so the price was higher than expected, and unlike other carry out spots the egg rolls are an additional charge. My food was ready appropriately 10 minutes later. Pickup was easy and the service was friendly but the food wasn't as good as I was expecting based on the reviews. Everything was just okay, and it definitely wasn't spicy. The food wasn't bad, it just wasn't that great.

Newsflash to the employees working at this restaurant: Asian-Americans exist. Don't ask us if we are from China or where we are from if you don't know anything else about us. And when I briefly responded that I was from a specific region in the U.S., you said that I look Asian. No s***, Sherlock.My Asian appearance shouldn't have been the only thing you cared to know about when I simply ordered food, especially in my American-accented English! How rude and superficial.Good enough food for 4/5 stars, but that ignorant interaction I had with one of the male employees left a bad taste. I won't go back. I dropped the rating down to 3 stars.
