Crown Palace Chinese Restaurant

Pretty good ginger beef! Would give it a 6 for flavour and spice and crispiness, adding +1 relative to other Chinese places on the island. 7/10

This place is the real deal, such a warm family oriented business and great service and delicious food. We really like the ginger beef and the sweet and sour pork.

Its really good. We had the bbq fried rice. The rice had a nice wok smoky flavour. Perfectly chewy. I liked.

Pretty neat place to go and the guy is very friendly. Definitely a gem in town

Ordered from here while working out of town recently. Ordered the Thai red curry chicken and veg with rice and crispy spring rolls.Pros: Tonnes of food for the price! Quality ingredients. The chicken was all nice cuts of white meat, veggies were very fresh, varied and plentiful. Sauce Not too spicy but really nice flavour. The spring rolls were huge! I had easily enough left over for next day’s lunch and it was right around $20.Cons: no dipping sauce for spring rolls, weird. Delivery driver was less than friendly.Will try the fried chicken from their sister restaurant within the same location next time I am there as I hear they are good too.

In the past, we loved the Ginger Beef but it has changed and not for the better. The Ginger beef seems to be battered and deep fried now. This makes the ginger beef not crispy, but mushy with batter.The beef and broccoli did not have much beef, with a lot of liquid. Quite different from the past once again and the chop suey had too much celery compared to the few vegetables. Hardly any sprouts were added, when originally asking for a side order of sprouts. Was very disappointed in this order.

I set the bar low expecting typical greasy Chinese" food. Somehow this place disappointed. Don't waste your time with the ginger beef

I read several reviews before posting mine. I can only assume that the 5 star and positive ones are from people who have no idea what real Chinese food tastes like. I have eaten Chinese food in the states from coast to coast. What I ordered from here was totally horrible. I could not recognize what was what. No duck sauce. No hot mustard. No napkins.The flavor was off.To top it all off, we used the “skip the dishes” app. We were shorted two items worth almost 40 dollars. Calamari and spring rolls. After contacting customer service all they would do is credit the app. I explained that I did not live here and would never use that app again, could they please credit back my card. No, was the answer.So basically my Chinese food experience on the island was more of an experiment.Talk about a bad taste in your mouth....

Ordered from here as an alternative to our usual place since it was closed on New Years Day. We were very impressed with the food! Everything was hot and tasty! The ginger beef was light and crispy. The sweet + sour pork and garlic veggies were also very good. The chow mein was yummy (though was a tad greasy). We ordered 4 dishes for 2 people and had plenty of leftovers. Would recommend to anyone looking for decent Chinese food in Victoria!

I'm giving these guys a 5. They deserve better than under 4 stars. I'll be honest the building outside is unappealing but the Asian food I had was delicious! Ginger beef, not too chewy like many make it, an excellent vegetable crispy noodle dish and a special fried rice. I wish the menu was bigger but thought prices were reasonable and the food..excellent!
