  “Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. Various chicken beef dishes, rice, noodles and chips ordered without any complaint. 15-minute drive home and had no issues with temperature or moisture. Pleased to find a high-quality Chinese restaurant.”

  “I travelled from Sheffield to reach the palace. I had heard stories of this restaurant from afar, and this weekend I had the opportunity to travel to experience the true meaning of luxury. The main dish I was recommended was the lemon chicken (see individual dish reviews below), which was cooked differently to any Chinese I’ve had previously. Delamere fortune palace really makes you feel like royalty. You walk in the door and feel like a king (or queen). Although slightly pricey (I was aware before I went in), it still feels like exceptional value for money. The only warnings I received before I went was to avoid the Sunday buffet, and prawn crackers not to be included. Now I can’t comment first hand on the buffet, the prawn crackers were handed over on the house from Michael, which made my night. Truly exceptional service. Now for the dish reviews… Prawn crackers - included in the meal. exactly what you’d expect. Crispy, enjoyable, plenty available too. Crispy aromatic lamb - not a usual item on a Chinese menu (normally duck). I was stunned at how good the meat was. They weren’t stingy on the portion and it tasted so similar to the duck (was really good with the prawn quackers haha!) 9/10 BBQ ribs - This was another of my friends stable items. He reccomended I drizzle the honey over the meat. It was so tender, quite literally fell off the bone. I even tried to pick up one of the ribs and the bone literally fell out. Unbelievable. 10/10 Salt and pepper chicken wings - not my go to normally on a Chinese but a welcome change. The portion was generous, tender meat and plenty of seasoning. I would have perhaps liked a bit more veg in there too as that makes the takeaway a bit more healthy. 7.8/10 Crispy shredded beef - this is my normal Chinese go to. I have to say this one was slightly different to normal. The sauce had a sweeter taste to what I was used to, and the beef maybe required slight longer in the wok, but it’s undeniable that the quality of meat being used is excellent. 8.2/10 Egg fried rice - the rice and noodles I like to describe as the foundations of the Chinese. They won’t blow you away, but no house can be built without foundations. Still very enjoyable. 8/10 Noodles - I preferred these to the rice. It felt like they got the love and care which normal chow mein without the premium price. Really set up the meal to be excellent. 9.3/10 Lemon chicken - Now… where do I start. I was promised the world and received the universe. Like nothing I’ve ever eaten before. They give you 2 chicken breasts submerged in a lemon sauce I would quite happily bath in. If you come here, GET THIS DISH!!! 12.4/10 Overall thoughts: My overall thoughts are conclusive. This was worth every mile of the journey and every penny of the final bill (£61). I would highly recommend a visit, and will certainly be coming back. If I was going to suggest an improvement, it would be frying the beef in the crispy chilli beef for an extra 20-30 seconds, but that’s me being really picky. I’d like to thank Michael for the service he showed me and my friend, and will certainly be back!”

  “Ordered Take-Away Aromatic Duck, Spring Rolls, Sweet and Sour Mix and Cha-Siu + Rice. The gentleman who took the order was very well spoken, the order was waiting when we arrived. The food was absolutely spot on - all elements. Will definitely be back!”

  “I have been going to Delamere Fortune Palace Restaurant for over 35 years, and the food was always very nice. However, we recently went for the Sunday buffet, and it was so very disappointing.. When we arrived there were not many people eating. We went to get our food, and most of the plates/dishes had hardly any food left on them, especially the starters.. I took a couple of them, and found they were cold! My husband said the same. So I went back to tell a waitress, who looked puzzled at me, lifted the plates to show the heaters underneath and replied “not cold, look!” Then she said, that they didn’t want to make anymore food yet, until more people come! She said not many people at the moment! There was hardly any rice in the dish, so I scraped out some onto my plate.. A gentleman who worked there was polite and said he would get some more hot starters, to which some did arrive, however some, looked like the same ones warmed up! We had a little main course, then moved onto desserts. By now, more people had arrived, so they did then make more food, so it was hot, but it was too late for us by then! I told the lady manager when we paid, and she just said, you need to just tell them if anything is cold! She said there was not many people so they don’t make more food until more people come! Does that mean, that the people who are there have limited food, that’s gone cold?! Wow! To be honest, she didnt even apologise, which I felt sad, and disappointed about, as I told her I had been going to the restaurant for over 35 years! There was no sorry, no gesture of any kind! 🙁 … It’s such a shame, as I always used to recommend it to people.. .. but not anymore..”

  “Recently ordered from here, gentlemen that answered the phone was really polite and professional. He made sure to get our order 100% right. Pickup was quick and it came in a box which helped keep it all together. That’s where it ends, the food was absolutely horrendous, no seasoning, chicken was raw in parts and swimming in water, wasn’t mixed and tasted horrible. We took one bite and had to throw it away - was a massive shame as the reviews and service were great. It was also my partners birthday which meant we had to cook late which completely ruined our evening.”
