Our family has always gone to another Chinese restaurant, but due to a booking mix-up went to China Palace for the first time last night. The mix-up was a blessing in disguise, as China Palace will now be our first choice for Chinese food in Dunedin. The food was as good as, and in some cases better than the more expensive restaurant we used to go to.
The Sweet and Sour Pork and Crispy Chicken were our favourites, but all of the dishes in the Banquet were delicious.
The staff at China Palace are friendly and polite. The only thing that is possibly lacking is the atmosphere. Anyway, this place is well worth trying!

Have been here several times. This is our place to get sat night fish and chips. Restaurant is by far the best Ive been to. Always go for the 20$ buffet. You get soup, entree, rice and 2 dishes for 2 people, add an extra dish for each extra person up to 8 dishes so 3 people = the soup, entree and rice plus 3 dishes. 8 people = the above plus 8 dishes. If you have around 12 people you will get x2 lots. Value for money, tasty dishes, very filling, plenty of food, great service. Lovely staff. Highly recommended

We had a meal at China Palace.
The Starter platter was mini spring rolls and chichen nibbles plus and chicken and pork mini ribs. a couple of others. dipping sauce sweet and sour. OK ish
Mains Platter of shrimps chicken and pork bits all deep fried, couldn’t tell one from another except deep fried prawns which had shell on them under batter. This plate was meant to with pineapple and onion and in a tasty sauce. haven’t seen an onion yet and there was a few pieces of raw pineapple thrown on top. the sauce was the same dipping sweet and sour sauce as platter. NOT value for money not NOT nice.
The other main was crispy chicken was OK but just plain chicken and nothing else.
The whole meal was most disappointing and would not ever go there again.
