OUR FAMILY
PJK Neighborhood Chinese Restaurant is the newest eatery of legendary restaurateur, Paul Fleming, and his wife, Jody Goodenough-Fleming. Paul and Jody made Naples their home in 2016. They were inspired to create a great restaurant in their neighborhood serving vibrant Chinese flavors crafted with clean, locally sourced ingredients and the bounty of fresh seafood available in their coastal community. Blending traditional craftsmanship and a commitment to scratch-made sauces, the PJK menu features delicate hand-folded soup dumplings, perfectly prepared local seafood, and the sweet craveable heat of traditional Chinese dishes like orange beef with spicy Sichuan sauce.
The Flemings believe that a great meal is not only what you eat, but how you enjoy it. Family-style sharable entrees, roasted Peking duck for two, dim sum, an extensive eclectic wine offering, and unique craft cocktails all deliver a dining experience, not simply a meal. Additionally, the open spaces, energy, and coastal breezes moving through the comfortable bar and patio create an atmosphere rich with the warm hospitality and relaxed nature of contemporary upscale dining.
