Mandarin Palace

Surprised no one left a review for this lovely restaurant yet.

I live quite close to here, and there aren't many chinese restaurants in this more East side of London.

Service is great, the owner is a lovely lady, very friendly and chatty and makes sure you're having a good time.

They have some authentic chinese dishes you won't find in a typical chinese (most are british-fied), and are decent. And they have a few interesting dim sums too that they made up themselves and you won't find elsewhere- like the pineapple custard bun. Though I must admit their dim sum aren't too great. Their roast ducks are are particularly lovely though, and their dinner menu.

The place is beautiful- very traditional chinese decor inside. Traditional paintings, vases, furniture. It's definitely worth a visit.

Overall I think it's quite good for value, and a great alternative for the east londoners to save their trip to central.
