Chinatown Has Waited Two Hundred Years For the Arrival of Yuxiyuan’s Authentic Beijing Roast Duck

For generations, Chinatown longed for an authentic Beijing roast duck—one crafted with royal technique, precise fire control, and the timeless elegance of table-side carving.

As early as the year 2000, while serving as the chef at the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco, Chef Han quietly made a promise to himself: “One day, I will bring true Beijing roast duck to this city.”

Yuxiyuan is the fulfillment of that dream, more than twenty years in the making.

A former national state banquet chef, Chef Han brought the most rigorous and authentic Beijing roasting methods to San Francisco, allowing the city to finally taste a duck that resonates with the true spirit of Beijing.

From our Caviar Peking Duck to Beijing-style cold dishes and refined stir-fries, every plate reflects the heritage of Beijing in a modern culinary setting.
