I have been going with my co-workers to China Palace for a while now, so its about time to write a review! The food in all honesty is alright. It is pretty cheap and you pretty much get what you pay for. What I do like about the place is the atmosphere. It has a very family and homey environment. China Palace has one of the friendliest staffs. I would recommend getting the Mongolian Chicken. You can also ask for white meat option, which makes it a little bit more healthier. read more

Our meal was pork lo mein, egg rolls and fried rice. The lo mein was mostly just noodles. None of the meal was not very flavorful.

I was almost giddy to find this place a mile away from our new house. Veggies perfectly cooked, sauces were subtle and tasty. Shrimp were a nice size and impeccably deveined (rare in takeout joints!). The egg rolls are delicious and appear to be housemade, not those dry chewy frozen ones a lot of places serve. Awesome! read more

My boyfriend and I like to try out different places to eat around the east valley and this place was our 3rd or 4th Chinese restaurant that we had tried and I have got to say they are by far one of the best. They also won an award back in 2017 for best taste and Im kind of shocked that they haven't also won the same for the last 2 years as well. Food is always fresh, staff is friendly and fast, atmosphere is relaxed and quiet. If you are looking for a great tasting Chinese, come check them out! We've gone back there 4 or 5 times in the last year alone. read more

First time eating here and I must say that this place was wonderful. Excellent service with the drink refills and in general excellent overall. Food was very tasty and great portions. Prices were reasonable. I highly recommend this place and I will be returning in the future. read more

Great food all the time! Delivery is fast. Not a fan of the inside but we only get it delivered

What an amazing experience. The interior was suuuuper peaceful, and they had soft piano music playing. The servers were very attentive and always had our glasses full. Within 5 minutes of sitting down, we had our meals in front of us! I ordered the orange chicken combination meal with the wonton soup. The orange sauce was perfect: not too sweet, not too orangey. The breading on the chicken was also perfectly fried. The soup was very warm when it came out, and it was a perfectly sized portion. My wife ordered the sweet and sour chicken combination meal with the egg drop soup, and she had nothing but positive things to say. All in all, this was the most pleasant dining experience I've had in a very long time, and we did not waste our time here at China Palace! read more

Highly recommend the twice cooked beef along with the sweet and sour chicken! Always our favorites!

During the covid-19 outbreak, the dining room was closed. We phoned in our order and were given 15-20 wait. We arrived early and got everything as expected. They were the onlyChinese restaurant open in Mesa read more

Loved the take out food: attentive and friendly service; many options to pick from off menu... food was prepared hot and was indeed good... flavorful chicken and beef .... loved the vegetable dishes read more

Why did I give it a two and not a one??? Because we have ordered from here before and it's never been this horrible!!! We ordered chow main and got some thing that looked like old cabbage soup!!! The pork pieces looked so gross , not like meet at all!!! I called back to be told that's what their chow main looked like, that if I antes noodles like Panda Express I'd have to order low main. Very disappointed . They did offer a credit, but since that won't fix my hunger at this moment I ordered something completely different that I have ordered in the past. Oh and did I forget to mention no fork to eat our food with :( read more

China Palace - Just not appetizing!!! The pork meat has holes in it and the color is just so wrong. But I guess this is their chow main:( - Chinese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Ok, so normal delivery form this place is maybe a 3-4. After the current experience I would give a ZERO for the food and management if possible. I ordered the Pu Pu platter of appetizers. When I opened it, the spring rolls, tempura shrimp and crab puffs were covered in a sauce. the shrimp was soggy but ok, the crab puffs were mushy and gross and the spring rolls were disintegrating! LITERALLY! Who covers deep friend finger food appetizers with sauce...especially spring rolls? So I called in to let them know how bad it was and after a side consultation the answer I got was simply, that is the way we do it. I tried to explain how that made no sense to deliver soggy, disintegrating food and that I personally found it gross and threw it away and the only reply I could get was, sorry, that's how we do it. Not even an apology!!! I will never order from here again. So much options they had to work with to take care of this order...just even an apology for the customer not liking it!!! NOTHING!! So the food is generally ok, but with management practices like this, I cannot support a business that is so customer unfriendly. Next time its pizza!!! read more

Love this place! Their combo plates are an awesome way to get a little bit of everything. Food is always great. Plus they always have a recent A+ sign for health code in the window. read more

Yumm! We ordered delivery on Valentines Day, they said it would be an hour but they had our hot, fresh, delicious food at our door in like 40 minutes! We'll definitely be eating here again! read more

I placed my order through eat 24 and i have to start my review off with the pros and cons of china palace but this is solely based upon my experience Pros- Fast delivery Good Teriyaki chicken Excellent spring rolls Cons- High prices ^$$$$ The wonton soup, very "muddy" so to speak (didnt bother to eat it and threw it out) Fried rice isnt the best (so fed the rest to my dog) Did not like the high price of over $3 just for lo mein noodles to compliment my teriyaki chicken so settled for fried rice as i said before not the best & one issue i did find with delivery is the fact the drivers carry little or no change, i had a tip ready for my driver along with a $20 bill and my total was almost $17 as i asked for change the driver seemed to feel as it was an inconvenience to give change and i felt as though he wanted a bigger tip or their employers do not stress the fact they need cash on hand incase of change. Final conclusion- Some food is good at this place such as the items i had written down but to be honest with my first experience in mind I wouldnt advise anyone to waste cash on an order that could lead to disappointment but as with any restaurant its hit or miss but pretty much a miss in my experience good luck to the next person that places an order, i hope your experience is better compared to mine For what its worth - Kenneth read more

Ordered Cantonese fried noodles. And asked for sauce on the side so my noodles won't get soggy. And look how much noodles you get for $11.75. I can not believe it.....what a rip!!! And another thing......slow slow slow service. :( read more

I ordered a chicken dish for my son and on the menu it didn't say it had nuts. I called and they made a whole new dish for him without nuts. Thank you so much! read more

My bf picked up Chinese since I mentioned that I was craving some. We just moved to this area from out of state. Chinese food is scarce around here ! He bought shrimp lo mein which came with a fried rice, a cream cheese wonton and a veggie eggroll. Ehh.. The wonton was seriously lacking filling. The eggroll was pretty mushy inside, maybe sat around too much. The shrimp lo mein had good flavor and shrimp was plump and not overcooked. But it was overall pretty over seasoned or salty. I couldnt keep eating. The only pro would be that they deliver. Otherwise I'll keep searching for a good Chinese joint to satisfy the need next time. read more

This is only limited to one item I've gotten from here, the orange chicken, which I was hoping would at least be as good as Panda Express. Nope, way way worse. First off, it was breaded like sweet and sour chicken usually is. Never seen that before and definitely not what I wanted. Otherwise the people seemed friendly and it was a decent price. But if they can't figure out something as simple as orange chicken why should I bother to try anything else? I like New China down the street more. read more

I felt that the food was sub par. I ordered boneless pork, and the meat looked old. It was dry, and the sauce they used wasn't good. The pork lo mien was a disappointment as well. The white rice was also dry. The wonton soup had decent broth, but the wontons were way over cooked, and the filling was tasteless. Other people in my party had ordered food that I didn't try, like egg drop soup, and beef with broccoli. They said there food was ok, but nothing spectacular. read more

China Palace - Gross, old, dry pork. - Chinese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We have only ever ordered online using the app on my phone. I do love how easy it is to order and pay via Apple Pay. That part alone makes me order from there more! That being said, their food is good too. It seems like a lot of the dishes use the exact same chicken and they just put some different sauce on it, and there are times the amount of sauce you get is pretty limited so I always order extra sauce on ours. Their delivery is usually super fast and as another reviewer mentioned, the delivery people that come to the house are super nice and will often have a treat for the dogs. We order there quite a bit and have never had a dish that we did not like. read more

This is one of the best Chinese food places I've had in years. I'm from Michigan and I've not found the food to be the same. The service is fast very polite. Food is Amazing soo good, I was a little scared to try this place never had been before with no referral I relied on YELP reviews and they are accurate. read more

Absolutely closest NY style Chinese food I've found since moving to the beach with no ocean in 7/1999. Everything we have tried is delicious they deliver but we are a little too far. The prices are good but the food is great and there's always leftovers for the next day even though two men and myself share it. Definitely worth trying I can guarentee you'll love it too. If you enjoy good food for good prices read more

Love this place, food is great, and the staff is amazing. When I order take out the guy who delivers to my house is so sweet and always brings a treat for my dog. It's a nice touch! read more

Ordered take out from here. I live in a space where I have pretty much only fast food around me, so I have been looking for a place to grab decent chinese and I think I found it! The food was good, generous portions and the girls were super friendly when I got there. Reasonably priced as well! read more

Not a great place. Ambience poor. Good not good in quality. Cheap quality pieces is meat (chicken). Heavy greasy cheap food.

China palace has been consistent in the quality and quantity of food. You can't go wrong with what you get for the price. Fried rice needs some work though. Orher than that very good food. read more

Best Shrimp Lo Mein I have ever had! The Shrimp fried rice was also DELICIOUS! Definitely will go back when we're in this part of the city.

the best chinese food of mesa, very good price , and very good service. I will recommend the chicken soft noodle. read more

Disgusting! I ordered the beef with garlic sauce, combo lo mein, orange chicken, teriyaki chicken, eggs rolls and crab puffs. My friends all loaded up their plates and as soon as they tasted a bite of everything, we all threw it away. The chicken was rough, all the sauces were super sweet, beef did not taste like beef, the "crab puffs" were fried wontons with a speck of cream cheese...it was all gross. I literally threw away $55. The only reason I give it 2 stars is because the eggrolls were decent read more

Disappointed with food! Beef and broccoli not appetising went in the trash, we ordered other dishes all unhappy with the food, fried rice not what you would expect at all. Very few people in the restaurant....what a bummer! read more

My first time trying this place and I was so disappointed. They got my order wrong and wouldn't answer the phone when I tried to get a refund. Food they gave me was nasty, total waste of fifty bucks. We will be making the drive to golden valley next time. read more

Stopped here for dinner. Yelp said full bar but when we arrived hostess said no alcohol. We enjoy a glass of wine with our meal. Went to our old stand-by Yen Ching's on Power instead. Three stars for cleanliness. Hope this review is helpful. read more

I am a fan of China Palace, they deliver FAST and FREE... I often dont feel well enough to cook diner and i get into the 'mood' for soup and fried rice. Something about that combination for me is soothing. I do wish that they would offer a green bean with brown sause dish but everytime i ask- they dont have green beans, only snowpeas. :::((( The prices are very reasonable and they are very fast at delivering your order. some dishes are better than others- you have to try different things. The orange chicken is a bust here ::(( Hot and sour soup is very good but i prefer a lot of tofu in my soup. Over all its a good value. read more

How does a restaurant offer delivery & nobody can find your address??? My food was 1 1/2 hours late so it was cold!!! The rice was good. The crab puffs were ok. The spring rolls were terrible!!! I will definitely not order from here again!! read more

Staying in Mesa for work and I decided to get delivery. I was able to place an order right from Yelp, with cash. Delivery was early, food was hot and delicious and for under $20 I got more food than I could eat!!! Thank you China Palace, for a great meal!!! read more

Worst Chinese food my family and I have had . We are not usually people to complain but this food was not okay . Lo mein was not good . Tofu was described as "fried" and it was soggy. Everything was mushy and like slop. Family was joking that it was like prison food. Had to take it back with receipt and get a refund. For $67 worth of food read more

We were out this way, and decided to give a local place a try. The food was decent, and the staff was super nice and friendly. We tried the snow pea pork, mongolian beef, and the orange chicken. For the most part, they were what I expected except for the orange chicken. It was nice that it was all white meat; however, it was more the style of what I would have expected in sweet/sour chicken - fried breaded chicken bites. Hmmm. Not horrible, but I'm not a fan of the breaded and deep fried. The food was ready amazingly quick. read more

OK. So this place seems to have undergone some sort of management change. All of the old staff is gone and with it the service, cleanliness, and food. We used to come here regularly but after last night I doubt we'll be going back. We were greeted quickly and sat at a booth. However, while we were walking to the booth you could clearly see food on the floor under the table. No attempt was made to clean the floor. We ordered Fried Rice which came cold. The Kung Pao Vegetable plate was OK. My wife ordered some chicken plate which she said was bland with no flavor. I don't get it. Why do restaurant owners forget what they are in business for. All I want is good food and good service. This restaurant missed the mark on both counts. read more

So we visited this establishment on a nice a lonely night during Christmas break. I did my research on my beloved yelp and should have erred on the side of caution and "followed my guts" instinct. Upon entry I realized this was going to suck...The lounging around nonchalant hostesses slowly took us to a seat, but it wasn't like rocket science, as there was only one other customer and his lady friend chomping on some food. We ordered our soda drinks which came in some real thin cup type things loaded with ice. Did they not have a fountain machine on site??? Not sure. Moreover, it came time to order.....we ordered our dishes and an app. Let me say that the Kung Pao that I ordered was the worse tasting dish I have ever had at any Chinese food place. Cutting corners aren't ya....With about 3 sticks of chopped celery. And a bunch of peanuts....not even real brown sauce. The app we got sucked as well. I felt like walking out after it appeared as though something suspicious was going on when the hippy looking cook came out to chill with the girls....dude this is not an authentic Chinese food place. I understand that I am in east Mesa...but for real, panda express serves it much better than this place. I WISH I could get refunded the absurd amount of close to 40 bucks I spent on a family of three......for such little food and such a bunk tasting meal. Heck....I can rock the wok much better. We will never return and I will not have a menu for delivery in my humble home. Anyways caveat emptor....yuck............... read more
