Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Golden Palace shines in its generous portion sizes, ensuring great value for the price, typically ranging from £10 to £20. The sweet and sour chicken balls are a particular favorite—massive, perfectly cooked, and bursting with chicken. Regulars rave about the fresh ingredients, which elevate each dish—from crispy shredded beef to delightful chicken chow mein. Friendly service, especially from staff like Susan, enhances the dining experience, making everyone feel welcome. Many patrons appreciate the efficient service, although timing can vary during busy periods. The restaurant’s cleanliness and attention to hygiene have also garnered positive notes from reviewers, making it a trustworthy dining spot.
Most Disliked
While Golden Palace is highly regarded, some customers have noted the occasional longer wait times during peak hours. Despite the noted speedy service, high demand can lead to delays, which might be frustrating for those with limited time. Additionally, there are no delivery options directly from the restaurant, though third-party services like Deliveroo have begun servicing the area. Some diners may find the casual atmosphere not as fitting for formal occasions, which could deter a few looking for an upscale dining experience. Overall, these minor inconveniences do not seem to overshadow the restaurant's strong reputation and loyal customer base.

We have always used this Chinese takeaway since 2006 and it has gone through about three ownerships in that time. The family that run this takeaway now for the last few years have the best chefs for Chinese food in town as it just gets better and better. All food prepared fresh, tasty ingredients which can be adjusted as they only want to make their customers happy. Usually speedy service though so popular at times there can be a longer wait than anticipated. Worth the wait though, always great Chinese food experience.

Just tried this restaurant for the first time. What can I say it was absolutely amazing, really fresh ingredients you could taste each individual ingredient. Was greeted very warmly by a smiling lady named Susan. The smells filling the shop were amazing and was reflected in the taste whilst eating. Portion size is very large check my last pic, that was left after stuffing myself. I had sweet and sour chicken balls, crispy shredded beef and chicken chow mein, half a container of beef left to! Chicken balls were massive as you can see from pictures and I can assure you filled with chicken see picture attached, about 10 balls in total, sauce was lovely too. Recommend highly, I think you can see it was enjoyable by my empty plate. I will definitely be back. Oh and stated no delivery on the menu that was posted through my door,but as you can see in first pic deliveroo cover Dorking now .give it a go guys...enjoy.

I have been ordering from the Golden Palace for 20 years. The owner back then was a delightful man, as was his son, and every dish I had was perfect. They sold up a few years, and finally the family that own it now are just as lovely, as is their food, same perfect standard as before. I am spoilt with this takeaway, as I'm wary of trying other Chinese takeaways.

Tried the lunch time menu, I had the chicken curry and rice . Very friendly staff, quick service and delicious food . I highly recommend trying here

We thought it was really flavoursome. Very big portions which makes their prices very reasonable. The duck pancakes had decent meat, and the beef in szechuan sauce (I think!) went down really well. On collection, it was a very well presented workspace with the highest standards of hygiene

Always fresh, quality ingredients. The chicken is so succulent and cooked perfectly. The portions and prices are the best around. Soooo tasty every time. I won't go anywhere else.

I'm a lorry driver & was stranded for the night on an industrial estate around the corner. This was the closest place to eat and it was worth the walk. The staff were polite and helpful, the food only took a few minutes, the portions are sizable, plenty of veggies and it was delicious... I planned to save half until tomorrow but it didn't work out so well. Highly recommended
