Welcome to Grand Palace Chinese Restaurant


Grand Palace Chinese Restaurant

Situated in Perth, Western Australia in a heritage listed building built in 1928, The Grand Palace offers one of the finest Cantonese dining experiences in the country. With a menu that is influenced by western cultures, owners Wenny and Fia Wang will greet you with a friendly welcome as you enter this magnificently appointed restaurant that is matched with first class, fine Chinese cuisine and service.

Located on the park and close to Perth's famous landmark, The Bell Tower, the Grand Palace Chinese Restaurant is without doubt one of Western Australia's finest eating establishments. Gone is the normal red and gold décor associated with Chinese restaurants, and in its place a contemporary design with pastel blues and greys fused with a delicate Asian flavour. This elegant but casual restaurant is widely frequented by Perth's corporate and financial leaders, and is an outstanding venue for weddings and corporate functions. One look on entering will tell you that you have come to somewhere special. Try the Grand Palace, where 'East meets West elegantly'. You won't want to leave.

Owners Wenny and Fai Wang will offer you not only the finest service, but also an extensive menu which utilises the freshest of WA's produce ranging from the finest seafood to crocodile and kangaroo. The menu is influenced by Fai, an award winning chef, with authentic Cantonese and Szechuan flavours. Try the Hong Kong Bay style king prawns (the prawns fresh from local sources) or the world famous rock lobster, which is so fresh it is still swimming. For those who are not seafood lovers the menu also offers a vast array of other dishes like Szechuan Chicken, Peking Duck, Black Pepper Fillet Steak, Xin Jiang Lamb Fillet plus a selection of vegetarian dishes. The Grand Palace also offers you an extensive wine list with local and interstate wines and beers, and spirits from a fully stocked bar.

Food:
     
We dined on Saturday August 1st 2009. Six of us celebrating our daughters birthday. We enjoyed a couple of drinks in the bar area before our meal - the sole barman was kept extremely busy and the cocktails the girls ordered took some time to arrive. We consulted the waiter about how many dishes we should order and were given helpful advice. The restaurant was nearly full and our meals took a while to arrive but the wait was totally worthwhile - the food was simply delish!!!!! Chinese at its very best!

Service:
     
As mentioned before the bar service was a bit tardy but the actual wait staff were attentive, polite and helpful. We did have to ask for water however, which was quite a surprise considering the the overall standard.

Ambience:
     
There was plenty of room to have our pre-dinner drinks in comfy chairs and the restaurant is tastefuly modern in its decoration - no dated or tacky fake chinese decor thank goodness!

Overall:
If you want an average night out, at for an average price, at an average restaurant then don't go to the Grand Palace! It is quite pricey but the service is good and the food is just magnificent! It is somewhere to have a great evening and best of all it is a five minute walk from Esplanade station!

Food:
     
We ate there on 18th April 2009. Previously the duck pancakes were outstanding this time, very average, main courses came out at odd times, 1 was cold and had to be sent back, another came out 20 minutes late. I appreciate they were busy, but food standard is definitely slipping

Service:
     
the manager argued with us over the number of duck pancakes we were ordering and the size of the main courses and got quite hostile when told that's what we wanted. food came out late and cold and they had obviously messed up the order

Ambience:
     
the ambience is ok, except for watching the dero urinating in the garden outside

Overall:
overall, i won't go back, the tables for 2 are poorly lit, service is a joke and the manager is very rude, which was reflected in the tip 0. paying a 15% service charge is bad enough but then being asked where is the tip is disgusting

Simply Perfect!!

Beautiful setting, fabulous service and amazing food. The banquet is great value and we couldn’t even finish the food there was so much!

The extensive wine list has something for everyone...

A great night out!
