Customer Review Summary
The complaints are specific and recurring. Delivery is the weak point: one order took two hours and arrived cold, another waited an hour and a half for food described as raw and cold. Others report quality slipping, with stodgy prawn balls, hard chips, egg fried rice with no egg and a reheated beef curry. One extra spicy chow mein tasted like plain noodles with spicy powder sprinkled on top. Another order of sweet and sour chicken arrived without the noodles, and the staff then said they do not sell noodles separately.

“I ordered 3 portions of plain chow mein noodles with prawn crackers from China Palace, and I requested them to make it extra spicy. After delivery, when I tasted the noodles, they did not taste like properly cooked spicy noodles. It felt like plain noodles were mixed with spicy powder on top. As soon as I took a bite, I could taste the spicy powder directly instead of the noodles being evenly spicy. It seems like the noodles were boiled and then just sprinkled with spicy seasoning and mixed, rather than being cooked properly with spicy sauce and ingredients.”

“I ordered for delivery in the phone, i asked to get some sweet and sour chicken and noodles. They only delivered the sweet and sour chicken. When i called back they said they don’t do sweet and sour chicken with noodles and that they don’t do noodles separately. But when i called to order they never said they don’t have noodles. They say they didn’t charge me for it but i didn’t get a recipe upon delivery. (Paid cash).”
