Forbidden Palace And Bistro

The food and service were excellent! Prices were just a little bit high compared to some other Chinese restaurants, but overall the meal was a good value, as most of us had more than we could eat, and so we had food to take home with us! Their sesame chicken and their plum wine was some of the best that I've ever tasted! We intend to return here as one of our frequent Saturday night gathering places!

The food was very good reasonably priced. But the service was phenomenal. They were short wait staff we had one waiter who is serving several tables he was an absolute joy and did a fabulous job making sure none of us felt left out and made sure all tables got what they needed.

I found this place by chance, while hungry and going into Harris Teeter for some fried chicken. They were all sold out, but just outside there was a heavenly smell coming from this place called Forbidden Palace. So I went over to check it out. First, I have to say that what I ate there is sincerely the best NY Style Chinese food I’ve ever had in my life. Atmosphere is serene and everything in the restaurant is very clean. Great place for a romantic date, taking your whole family, or even solo dining in comfort and peace. They also have traditional (authentic) Chinese food, if that’s what you’re after. This is the true “No. 1 Chinese Food” restaurant in taste, quality, and style. I’ve been back twice already since my first visit, and it’s easy to say that I will be a regular here from now on.

Good food. Reasonable prices. They have a lunch menu also. Service was pretty good but I was at a table of six people and they brought people's food out at different times. Most restaurants will try to bring everyone's food out at about the same time. I was stuck sitting there twiddling my thumbs while all my table mates were eating. Not cool.

Food good, bad service. Party of three and got rice for one. Couldn’t get the waitress to come back; then she says more rice is more money. I don’t care! Check back and see if we need anything!
