Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the generous portions and the friendly staff on the phone and at the counter. Praise centres on the salt and chilli chicken, tender meats and prawns, and fresh meat and veg, with one former Hong Kong resident calling the spices evident without overpowering. Several describe delivery and service as quick. The caveats are mostly about food quality and value. One reviewer found the special fried rice topped with meat like shoe leather, with dry rice and chips that were not fresh. Another got dry roast pork chow mein with undercooked onion, and a third found tasteless, tough chips and chicken balls that tasted of flour. A few mention price increases on the new menu, and one order came out higher than expected after a mix-up over portion sizes. A spring roll missing its meat was fixed right away after a call.

“Great staff but unfortunately the food lets it down badly! Chips were tasteless and tough, chicken balls tasted of flour so we didn’t finish them .”

“We ordered my 13 year old son Chinese for dinner. We wanted snack box 3 salt and chilli chicken with fried rice and curry sauce separate which should have been £9.30 and a portion of ribs with peking sauce £8. So the total should have been £17.30. My wife queried this with the member of staff she dismissed her saying you got the bigger portion. The staff member had ordered a full portion of salt and chilli chicken and fried rice which was £9.50 and a portion of curry sauce which was £2.80. This is why it came to £20.30 instead of £17.30. This made it a very expensive takeaway for my son. The bigger portion was great but as my son only eat half the portion and the rest had to be thrown out as the portion was to big. The food was nice and the salt and chilli chicken was nice and crispy and had a really nice heat. The onions in the dish seem to be raw or very undercooked so caused a bit of heart burn. The ribs were nice and the sauce was tangy by again at £8 not really good value for money. Staff need to listen to what customers order and take their order accurately. Overall I do not think I would rush back and would probably not recommend this Chinese to friends or family”

“This is now our favourite Chinese takeaway in Town. We just happened to check it out when our usual place was closed and we are now only getting our takeaway from China palace. The food is fantastic quality and the portions are massive. The meat and veg in the dishes are always really fresh and great quality and there is always plenty in your meals. The staff are always so lovely and polite on the phone and we haven't had one issue with any orders we've made. Delivery service is always super quick too. I don't have one bad thing to say about this takeaway. Just be aware, they do not take card as payment, it's cash only. But there is a cash machine at the garage a few steps away. It's a fantastic Chinese takeaway and we highly recommend them.”
