Authentic Chinese Cuisine and One of my favorite places I could find out there for Chinese food. There's absolutely No MSG and it's never too salty with their food! Which makes it even better if you're health conscious! I give them 5 Stars!! read more

"I'm changing my review from 3 to 1 star. Like I mentioned on my first review, I've never eaten in the restaurant, but use them whenever we want Chinese food delivery. The food is okay but greasy. However, yesterday's incident with Ocean Palace made me furious with the place! After sleeping for most of the day, trying to recuperate from my crazy Vegas weekend, I had no choice but have a late lunch delivered to me at home. My food came and bill was $20.55. I had a $20 bill and a $5 bill. I ALWAYS tip whenever we order food for delivery. The guy from Ocean Palace tells me he didn't have change for my $5 bill. Okay, so I go around the house scrounging for some change to pay for my food. I found some change and gave him $.55 to pay my order in full. Ocean Palace Guy (OPG): No tip? Me: Do you have change for $5? OPG: No Me: Okay, well, I'm not about to give you a $5 tip. We always order from you guys, so I'll just double the tip next time. The more I thought about what just happened, the more mad I got. At first, I felt bad that I didn't give him a tip, but I thought, he should have had change on him! The audacity of this man to ask for a tip when he didn't have change for my $5 bill assuming I'll just tip him the $5! You won't find me ordering food from this place anytime soon..." - Barbra C. So it's been 3 years since Barbra's post and I just ordered delivery from Ocean Palace and am currently eating my garlic chicken lunch special. I gave the delivery guy 2 dollars tip for a 19 dollar order, and he says its 3 dollars tips and demands his dollar, seriously I am not going to argue with a delivery boy over a dollar. I thought since its been three years and I was thinking things have changed from Barbra's post, i decided to order from here. Just to let everyone know the delivery guy is still a d-bag, not sure if the restaurant knows he is demanding tips. Nothing bad to say about the food, but the delivery service sucks, don't even bother ordering for delivery. unless you want to argue with the guy over a mystery amount of tip that they expect you to pay. read more

So I order here a few times a month for lunch to go. I've never experienced any problems with the service or the food. The dishes that were memorable so far were the HK Chow Mein, the mongolian beef, and the squid in spicy salt. The surprisingly good honey walnut shrimp dish has also been on the top of my list. The only reason they are not getting 5 stars is because they do not have egg rolls with their lunch specials as it says on the online menu...it's hot and sour soup that I'm not a fan of. The other reason is because NONE of the food is spicy...The spicy indicator is kinda unnecessary but as long as you understand that you will be adding your own hot sauce, it's all palatable. The seafood plates are a little smaller portioned than the meat dishes too. Overall I would say give this place a shot. The lunch specials are a good deal. read more

Food is amazing (don't get me wrong). However, the reason i am giving this a one star review is because of the guy that delivered the food to us. We have been ordering at this place but this guys changed our perspective to this place. This guy is rude and gave us an attitude when he came. and when my coworker is signing the receipt he asks for a tip (not knowing my coworker is going to give him a cash instead and that's why she didn't include that on the receipt). This is not a good customer service. That kind of worker will definitely pull this place down. read more

Best Chinese Food in the Bay Area. The is always delicious! We order a lot for delivery and our food is always warm and fast. They are always very consistent with the food and flavor. My favorite is the honey walnut shrimp and salt pepper fish! read more

Whats up with the people in northern california now a days?! Ordered delivery here thinking it would be quick. Took about an hour or a little over. I have a dog that likes to bark at people so rushing to get the door. I was grabbing tip and picking up my dog. The guy kept on knocking and ringing the door bell historically like he had been standing outside for 30 minutes when he just got here. After opening the door I apologized about my dog. Like it mattered to him. He rudely gave me a mean stare and gave me the paper to sign. Signed it and handed him the tip. The guy just stared so i literally handed it into his hand. Ridiculously-- the guy said I owed him $5 for tip when the delivery cost $25. I'd be more then happy to give u a $5 if you 1- weren't so lifeless and rude. 2- if you had made the delivery within 30 minutes. And now you want to tell me $3 isn't 15% of tip on a $25 bill and it should have been $5?! He deserved that slammed door to his face WHO DOES THAT?! Whats up with these norcal restaurants pissing me off left and right. You arent the server or my cook-- DELIVERY GUY. Explains why this is your JOB read more

The food was decent, but the altitude of the delivery guy was just bad. not only DEMANDing a tip, but a tip like $5 out of a $20 order. The main point was not the amount of the tip, it was that he took the tip as granted, not a gratitude from the customer. He had something like another-customer-is-paying-that-much-of-tips-so-you-should-do-the-same altitude. I really don't want to badmouth a business but I saw a post dated more than 2 years ago with the same problem. I would rather they don't do delivery or charge a few bucks on delivery, than giving customers that kind of bad experience. read more

Fast delivery, delicious, fresh food sent to my room at the Residence Inn, South San Francisco. Really better than I expected. Nice portions, yum. Will definitely order again! read more

Sweet and sour chicken was delicious. Very generous portion for $6.50. Also had the wonton soup. Can't go wrong eating here.

This is an authentic family-style no frills restaurant. Good Cantonese food, some of my favorites include clay pot dishes, salt-pepper or Peking spare ribs, Kung Pao chicken. They have good wok cooking dishes. read more

This is my second time ordering from Ocean Palace and it's been delicious both times. My first order was for combo app, tomato beef noodle and green bean chicken. The combo app was good but the star was the fried shrimp. The tomato beef was one of a kind. The green bean chicken was tasty black bean sauce with tender yet crunchy green bean and juicy chicken. The portions were huge and I was able to serve myself dinner for 3 nights. I picked up my order since I didn't want to wait the standard grubhub hour. I drove 15 minutes and my food was already waiting when I arrived. My second order I placed for General chicken, tomato beef noodle and 10 fried shrimp. Again the tomato beef noodle knocks me out, its a unique flavor I haven't had before. Rich tomato flavor with onion and tender beef. The general chicken was ok, not too saucy, it could have some veggies or more sauce. The shrimps were still as good as I remembered from last time. For this order I did delivery not wanting to drive over, I settled in for the hour wait. I read the reviews about the delivery guy asking for a tip (some girl had a $5 and didn't tip because the delivery guy didn't have change, that's really rude IMO) Anyways I was a server for 6 years I don't mind tipping and if you are driving my food to me I'm going to tip you 20% so I ended up tipping $5 on $24. My food arrived 20 minutes after I placed my order and I was startled by the knock because I was not expecting the food to arrive so fast. The delivery guy was warm, smiley and wished me a happy new year so I can say I'll 100% be ordering delivery again from Ocean Palace. Great experience! Delicious food!! read more

My first time to come to this restaurant. My kids and I ordered several items like shrimp won ton soup, fried squid, shrimp fried rice, shrimp chow fun and shrimp with walnut. Portions are big and delicious. We took the left over to our hotel. The bill just $ 50, we certainly will come back again. read more

Great place to order take-out and they have fast, free delivery. Most of the dishes I've ordered have been very good and the portions are good-sized. Some of my fav are: - Beef w/ black pepper sauce - Eggplant w/ mince sauce in spicy sauce - Sichuan (sp?) shrimps - Sweet & sour pork - Salted baked chicken read more

Not a bad place for lunch. I went there today with a co-worker. I had the Kung Pao Chicken. It had zucchini, which I could do without, a good spice to it, and fried rice. That was around $5. You can also get a special combo where you get your choice of entree, fried rice, fried chicken wings, and won tons. Good Potstickers filled with lots of cabbage pork. Parking is bad, though. read more

We ordered delivery for a company lunch. We told them to deliver at 12:30 and even confirmed the delivery time on the day of the luncheon. Of course, the food came 40 mins before delivery time. In most cases, maybe this would work. But in this case we will be eating cold chinese food at 1pM. they didn't even bother to inform us that the food was on its way and they were early. The guy didn't care. He said they're busy at 12:30 so he delivered it now. Should I even review the food? I mean, cold chinese food? Nah! read more

I order food from here very often cause the food is actually good. But if you're having it delivered be ready to get some attitude from the driver. Very rude and doesn't know customer service. He openly asks for more tip and doesn't leave the place till you give him money. Once he even told me not to give this amount when really the restaurant is like less than 5 mins away from me. I order it to be delivered cause I don't have a ride but I really don't think it costs that much for gas in this short distance. He really needs to learn some manners and customer service! read more

Thought I'd find a good home style chinese restaurant in my neighborhood, but I was wrong. Stopped by for some comfort food and the results were not all that good. The beef chow fun (wet) was greasy and they got my chicken w/ salted fish fried rice order wrong. It was take out so I did not know until I got home. I got some bbq pork fried rice or something like that. The lady at the counter was not at nice either. My chinese is not great but cut me some slack, I'm pretty sure I got everything right when I ordered it. The search continues in San Bruno for good chinese comfort food. I might give it one more try before I completely write this one off. read more

We ordered the sole filet in black bean sauce, Chinese broccoli in garlic sauce, curry Singapore noodles and wor wanton soup. DELICIOUS!!!!!

We typically order take out - the basics like fried rice, chow mein, won ton soup...we're always pretty pleased with the food...once in a while the salt and pepper pork chop is a bit dry but we always reorder it anyway lol ...everything else, especially the chicken fried rice, is always on point! When our order is of greater than $30, they give a free snack, like egg rolls. :) read more

This is small town take out Chinese food, not fine dining! Food is good, nice portions, and delivery was accurate and quick. No complaints whatsoever. If you want fine Chinese dining, this is not the place to call. If you want some good, filling, and acceptable food, call them. I always tip, if the address is typed in wrong, it is not the delivery guy's fault. read more

We almost hate to review on this place cause its our absolute favorite place to get chinese food, and its nice that there is always seating available...but thats very selfish... :) So, with that said, this has got to be the most delicious, consistently fresh chinese food we have found across 3 states. We have never tried thier delivery but we do know that the service and prep time IN the restaurant is outstanding. They are not "talkers" but they are always very friendly and remember us. Besides the outstanding flavor of the food, there is also PLENTY of it!! We gorge ourselves there, then i still have enough leftover for lunches for the next two days. And did i mention that the prices are very fair! read more

Awesome service and great food. Favorite is the garlic chicken wings and Won Ton soup with thinly sliced beef!!

I've just moved back in town & have been searching for my "go-to" Chinese restirant. And I think I have found it! Delivery was fast and food was awesome & good prices. read more

Ordered food late. they were closed, but still charged me. I have made several attempts to be refunded, and have been refused repeatedly... Buyer BEWARE.... read more

This is your standard tiny neighborhood Cantonese place except that the food here is a cut above most others in the area. It's "standard" in that there's no ambience except for the TV always going and the sticky condiment tray. But standard also is speedy table service and a good-sized menu. I've never seen a lot of dinnertime diners here early in the week, but there's a steady flow of takeout always, which I'm guessing is their main thing. Dish prices have risen a buck or so this past year or so but the cooking has improved with lighter sauces and a lighter touch overall (e.g., thin crispy batter coatings). A newer dinnertime chef, no doubt. Portions still are good-sized in-restaurant. If you're hungry and maybe in somewhat of a rush but still want a sit-down meal, Ocean Palace fills the bill nicely. read more

So I've been going here for over 5 years. This is definitely my families go to Chinese restaurant and it's delicious. Staff is pretty quiet and a few times rude. They expect tip when you do delivery and will flat out ask for it. We already give tips but to be told to do it sounds rude to me. Definitely try their Mongolian beef it's tasty. The spicy salted breaded fish is also good. And their soups are always yummy when sick. Over all I do enjoy this place for fast Chinese food. read more

Never had a bad meal here. My favorite is the Hong Kong Style fried noodles especially the spicy pepper beef one.

I eat here 2 a month, they have the best Chicken String Bean with Blackbean sauce ever! hands down the best... not a 5 star because I eat here so often and they still don't remember who I am. read more

Do not order food here. I had take out and threw most of 24 dollars down the drain. I ordered deep fried tofu, chow mein and fried rice. I tried to enliven it with a bit of soy sauce and hot sauce but it was not just lacking flavor, but there were some bad tastes in the food. I hate to badmouth a business, but I do not recommend this place. Don't waste your money. They need to get fresh, lively flavors in their food. read more

I'm a regular customer, and have tried nearly everything on the menu. Great food, especially for the price. Service sucks though. That's why I take-out on the way home, every single time. Ha. read more

Good food, but, the customer service is bad at best. It's very hard to communicate when ordering takeout and the woman taking the order on the phone gets frustrated when she can't understand you. She should work on her patience. read more

Delivery guy was 10 minutes late and argued with me to tip more. I'm not the only person that has experienced this. I will not be ordering from here again no matter how good the food is read more

I am BIG fan of Ocean Palace, they're food is always tasty and FRESH!! Great lunch special options and reasonable for what you get...I definitely recommend!! read more

Good food but not that great and fast delivery... u should try the shrimp in spicy garlic sauce and salt and pepper pork...;)

This is a hit or miss place. Sometimes you get a perfect order & sometimes not . One guy doesn't speak good English but these people are nice. Ordered mixed vege with seafood on a white garlic sauce & seafood fried rice. Vegetable taste different with spice and fried rice was salty. Used to order good beef broccoli but last time I ordered was salty. I missed the chinese restaurant @ westborough & gellert. read more

Was a little nervous that the person taking my order didn't hear me well enough on the phone but thankfully she got the order correct! I ordered for delivery as I work the front desk at the Super 8 down the road, they delivered my order within minutes! I ordered their Hot Sour Soup, Sweet and Sour Pork and BBQ fried rice, i was not expecting them to give me such big amounts of food! Definitely ordering from here again :D read more

Decided to try this place out since we needed a Chinese takeout. I'm Chinese and I thought the food was pretty okay. With the fish dish, it came with yu choy which was pretty fresh. The Mongolian beef was okay for the size. We also ordered a salt fish fried rice dish which was also okay. Perhaps it is our "go to" take out restaurant. Easy parking. read more

Ordered dry fry chicken wings, dry fry shrimp and shrimp wonton soup. Ship wonton soup here means shrimp with pork wontons in soup.. lol very bad and borderline deadly misdiscriptions.. buyer beware sign missing read more

Good food! Portions are decent and also the price on the menu. A lot of choices. Restaurant needs some more cleanliness, remodeling and organization (carpet worn out and not clean, windows missing, condiments not filled up and clean on tables) I hope the kitchen is clean. Didn't go to the restroom. Overall a good place to swing by for some quick lunch or dinner. read more

Delivery was fast. Portions are big. Food was kind of bland. No soy sauce came with the delivery which really bummed me out.
