Fodor's Review:

Juicy, whole ducks roasting in a traditional oven greet you upon entering this simple courtyard house. It's a small, casual, family-run restaurant far from the crowds and commercialism of Quanjude, Beijing's most famous Peking duck eatery. Li Qun is a choice option for those who enjoy a good treasure hunt: the restaurant is hidden deep in a hutong neighborhood. It should take about 10 minutes to walk there from Chongwenmen Xi Dajie, though you may have to stop several times and ask for directions. It's so well known by locals, however, that when they see foreigners coming down the street, they automatically point in the restaurant's direction. Sure, the restrooms and dining room are a bit shabby, but the restaurant is charming. Ask for an English menu and feast to your heart's content!

Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
