Love the food. Place not as expected but it doesn't even matter. I was able to buy Taiwanese comfort food. Will be a repeat customer.

Nowhere did it mention that this restaurant is a bowling alley and bar. The posted menu was VERY limited. How did it get all the good reviews???!!! There is no wonton soup and there was pork in my shrimp fried rice. Very disappointing.

Surprisingly good (southern)Taiwanese food! Pork rib over rice, and thickened pork soup tastes authentic and brings me right back home! Waiting to try more items on the menu!

The food was mediocre at best. The service left much to be desired. I will not eat here again...ever. wish I could have given it 1/4 star.

Our go to for Taiwanese takeout. It's legit! They have the best beef noodle soup in Monmouth County. We got their San Bei Ji (3-cup chicken) - delicious! The thickened pork soup was very flavorful. The stir fried pork with tofu was great as well.

I've lived in Middletown of nearly 20 years and driven past Harmony Bowl thousands of times and never stopped. I knew there was a Chinese restaurant attached and now I regret passing so many times. Curiosity got the best of me and I popped into China Palace because I wanted a takeout menu and was ready to try their food. I checked out the Yelp page and saw real authentic dishes. You must know they are takeout only, you have to call in your order and for us non Asian food enthusiast many of the dishes may not be appealing. This is not your average takeout Chinese food. This place is for the adventurous eater. That said take your time on the menu and you will find some familiar Chinese dishes like beef with broccoli and general Tso's and Kung Pao chicken. I went bonkers and orders 4 items for lunch/dinner/late night/ and lunch the next day. I was thoroughly impressed. The food is fabulous. I tried the wontons in spicy sauce and it wasn't very spicy but it was wonderful, big meaty steamed wontons in a tasty soy based sauce. The crispy breaded Porkchop had a really different but pleasing coating which was very crunchy with tender boneless pork. Again the spice level of the sauce was very low. I think they toned it down because I'm Anglo. The beef and broccoli was great. Large slices of super tender beef and a generous portion of broccoli in a delicious sauce. I also ordered the Chinese sausage fried rice, again I was blown away by its authenticity. I'll be back because I need to try their noodle dishes. Things to know; Susan takes the orders and she is super nice and will Shepard you through the more unusual dishes. They are takeout/pick up only so use the menu from the Yelp page photos and call your order in. The prices are great and the portions are huge so have some friends to help you enjoy the feast. I can't wait to order again
Taiwanese food there is authentic and yummy. Love their chicken cutlet with minced pork rice.

This place locates inside a bowling alley. Serving regular soft drinks and snakes for regular bowling goers. However, this review is for the Chinese food they serve. They have separate entry doorway if you just want to order Chinese takeout to go. (Due to the pandemic, they only have takeouts for the moment.) Food region style is Taiwanese. Be aware of dates of menus posted by other Yelpers, prices have been increased throughout the years. Despite the attitude of the lady who takes your order, she is just being short-answered on majority of questions you might have, but it's just the way she is, not that she's in bad mood or anything... If you are looking for Taiwanese food in central Jersey, this is the place as close as you go.

Our go-to place for a nice satisfying meal! We have been to many Chinese/Asian restaurants in this area, and other places we visit, and China palace is our benchmark. We rarely like the other places better. Our kids live in NYC and when they visit us, one of the things we always do is to order food from China Palace which apparently brings back happy childhood memories. The menu is fairly simple, food is unpretentious and definitely inexpensive, however they taste great. Their clientele tends to be Taiwanese and Chinese and that says something about the authenticity of their food. Highly recommended.
