Eastern Palace - Menu

Whilst my team mates delighted in the tasty pork, beef, duck and chicken, I cannot comment on such dishes. The aubergine and tofu however were extremely tasty. The service is top notch and this place delivers again and again.

This restaurant is simple and perfectly acceptable. It may not be considered a 5-star establishment on TripAdvisor, unless McDonald's is also considered a 5-star. It is not a restaurant that people would go out of their way to visit.

Read the reviews and based our choice on the recommendations, and they were not wrong the team were really friendly and service was excellent. Food was good value for money and was really flavorful and no dry mouth the next day so no MSG. I would really recommend the special fried rice, duck and hong kong sweet and sour!! View menu

We love coming to this restaurant, if only for the spare ribs!!! No all the food is brilliant! The staff are so friendly and attentive. Always made so very welcome. If you do visit, the salt chilli spare ribs are sublime. I could eat them all day. The food isn’t greasy, tastes as good as it looks. We tried a different dish last night, house rice, it was a meal on its own.

4 adults and 2 kids in our group with a range of starters, mains and desserts required. Everything served was faultless and fresh. Salt and pepper squid was a favourite of the evening, but ribs were also a hit. ‘Sizzling’ chicken main dish was also popular. Very nice Singapore noodles that were tastefully spiced but not explosively hot. The staff are a joy, a lovely family run restaurant. We had a very enjoyable evening.

I have been going to this restaurant since the 80's as a child. Now take my children who love it as much as I do. My mother was in the catering business, so we have always be critical of dishes. The food is always appetising fresh and flavorful as standard. (NOT greasy and sloppy) An amazing family run restaurant who always welcomes customers warmly. In my opinion this has effortlessly set the bench mark in Chinese Cuisine. My favourite dishes are egg fried rice and salt and pepper squid. Dry red ribs with lemon juice. Also lemon chicken.

I got a craving for an old fashioned Chinese meal so we headed for the Eastern Palace in Forest Gate. The restaurant has been there for decades, seemingly unchanged, so this fitted the bill perfectly. Decor is simple and but pleasant enough and the front of house is kept very clean and tidy though it smelt a bit of boiled cabbage. The menu contains all the anglo Cantonese classics. I had the spicy salt pepper squid and king prawns with black bean sauce. Food came suspiciously quickly. The squid was well seasoned but tasted of cheap oil. The prawns were good. My husband enjoyed his sweet sour vegetables and mushroom chow mein. Generous portion sizes I was defeated by mine. We also decided to...

I have been a customer of Eastern Palace since around 1970, with a few decades gap due to living elsewhere. Now that I am stuck indoors, I have been using their delivery service for the past couple of years. The owners and staff are truly warm and sincere, treating customers like friends and providing exceptional service. Whether we order regularly or rarely, their attitude remains consistent. The fact that their customers tend to be regulars speaks to how exceptional they are. Even expensive restaurants in central London cannot match their service, as those places often prioritize fast turnover and lack sincerity. Eastern Palace, on the other hand, offers consistently good food and personal...

I first visited this restaurant in 1974 for my birthday with my parents and sister, and the memory of that day still sticks with me. I used to be a regular customer, often coming in for takeout meals, passing by other Chinese restaurants on the way. It had been about 20 years since my last visit due to financial reasons, but I found myself in need of a meal and decided to give them a call. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the same friendly service and delicious food were still as exceptional as I remembered. I ordered more than I could eat and ended up saving some for the next day. I recently purchased a new wok after 30 years, and I look forward to using it to reheat the leftover foo... View menu
