China Palace is a small, family run restaurant. The food is excellent, and more authentic than many. The service is casual, pleasant, and prompt. The no frills atmosphere is reminiscent of Joyce Chen's all Eating Place.

My friend and I ate there today (Sunday, Feb. 25, 2024) for the very first time and were very pleased with the two dishes we had: General Ching's Batter Chicken and Moo Shoo Vegetable dishes. They were both delicious and generous servings. We will be back and also recommend the restaurant to others!

This is like literal oil water, every single dish. It is absolutely terrible food. You can taste the dirty rag they use to clean the wok after each meal. Worse then 1 star.

I'm from the DC area and so far this is one of the only restaurants that really hits the spot and reminds me of home. The 香干肉丝 is as good as it gets and the fried rice hits the spot for when I'm craving some classic American Chinese food!

Nice place. Came here because of an Instagram reel featuring the house special tofu. Delicious would recommend getting that.

I like China Palace a lot. My favorite dish is Chinese Broccoli with Garlic. Delicious. It consists of the broccoli greens and stems. No florets in this dish. The flavor is wonderful. Ginger and garlic. I don’t like the Spring Roll … not that much to it … very small with not much filling. They are $2.75, but as small as they are, a more fair price would $1.00 or $1.25. If you’ve never tried China Palace, I recommend you do.

China Palace has been so good lately and I may have just had one of my favorite meals ever at a Chinese restaurant: Chinese broccoli with garlic sauce, beef with chili peppers, wide rice noodles with chicken. Seriously go get it, this isn't Americanized though they offer that type of food too. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. I've lived near this restaurant for a long time and it gets better and better. My current fave in the area.

My favorite sit-down, non-buffet Chinese restaurant in the Triangle! Try the ma bo tofu!

I was extremely disappointed in my food and the cost today. 80$ meal that was not appetizing. The general Chings chicken had absolutely no taste. Tasted like dry fried chicken. Beef and broccoli was 90% broccoli. The only thing I was able to eat was the soup I got it. What a terrible dinner. ?

Originally from Guangdong, I would say they have authentic Cantonese roast duck! Xihu Duck is delicious too.Sometimes we pre-order Chiyouji豉油鸡, which is my favorite?

We’ve been enjoying China Palace since I was a child, and it is hands down the best Chinese food in the area. Highly recommend!!!
