Forbidden Palace

This is the worst and most over priced Chinese food I've ever had! I placed an order for pick up over the phone, and the guy who took my order was snarky. When I went to pick up my order, the restaurant had a nice and seemingly welcome atmosphere. I was greeted upon entering and directed to the bar to pay and pick my food. I stood at the bar for a few minutes before anyone said anything to me...I didn't like that and almost left considering there were at least 3 people there. Not a "Hello", "We'll be right with you" or anything. When someone finally said something, it was a guy throwing cooked rice in a container...the same thing he was doing when I first walked up. I paid for my food and left, thinking my bag definitely felt light. In a rush, I left without question it. When I finally opened my bag, I was highly disappointed. I paid $50 for 3 spring rolls, a small order of shrimp fried rice, 3 chicken wings, and an order of beef and broccoli with shrimp. The 4 medium shrimp that came with my beef and broccoli were an additional $3...they were soggy and gross! The shrimp fried rice, which they charged me $6.50 for as a substitute for the white rice that I ordered with the beef and broccoli, was also gross. My daughter, who loves chicken wigs, did not make it past one! The beef and broccoli was ok, outside of the soggy added shrimp and missing white rice. I was highly disappointed and will never eat here again!!!

Always a favorite coming here. We ordered for pickup tonight and I got an order of salt and pepper shrimp, and broccoli with garlic sauce. I added fried tofu to my broccoli dish and subbed veggie fried rice. All the veggies were perfectly cooked and were not hard at all. The rice tasted buttery and delicious. Everything was amazing. The salt and pepper shrimp is my absolute favorite. Hubby got his normal egg roll, Shanghai wonton soup, and Szechuan beef. He ate everything and said it hit the spot. Service was friendly, both on the phone and at pickup. They weren't very busy tonight, which was surprising. They're normally packed. We love coming here and recommend everything as we've never ordered anything bad.

Had really high hopes because we are always looking for a great place that has both Chinese food and sushi. This is super common where we are from and always miss it. We ordered an array of both cuisines and sadly there were only a few things that ended up being great. For appetizers, we shared the crab rangoons and the shrimp spring rolls. Both were decent, but the crab rangoons had an incredibly thin wrapper, which just isn't the norm of what we are used to. Although the filling was good, this wrapper just threw off the ratio. We also got hot and sour soup to start which was lacking flavor.Sushi was mediocre. see both got one roll, a shrimp tempura and a spicy tuna. Spicy tuna had no spice and just didn't seem to have that fresh fish flavor. The shrimp tempura was a bit better, but still not amazing. Kani salad also weirdly tasted a bit fishy. For entrees, we got chicken fried rice and house egg foo young which were the two things that we would actually come back for. Both were served piping hot and had lots of flavor. The egg foo young was definitely the winner of the night!

I was craving for some Asian cuisine so I went on trusty ol' Yelp to show me what was in the area and came across Forbidden Palace. What was intriguing about the place was that they had variety on their menu. Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese, Cantonese etc...Upon walking in, we were greeted and seated quickly. Our server was very attentive to us as well. For appetizer I got the Crab Rangoon and ordered some sushi, Volcano Roll and Yummy Roll. Everything was delicious! The coolest part is that my order came to me on a robot server! I've seen videos of them on the internet but never seen one in person before. I thought that was pretty cool.

We were greeted immediately and escorted to our table with a robot. Kinda cute. I like the decor. Everything was clean--including the bathroom. Service was good as well. The food was delicious. We had some dim sum (shrimp/leek and also bbq bun), salt and pepper shrimp tempura (appetizer), and Pad Thai. I took home some Mongolian chicken so I can have that for lunch Monday and Tuesday. The serving size was good. The food is good. Not blow your socks off but it's good. I'd come back. Pay attention to the prices in the menu. This is not your neighborhood Chinese joint type prices. But I can't complain because they're laid out in the menu. But when you're hungry, it's easy to order like money is no object. LOL!

Food and drinks deliciousCustomer service hi Standar super delicious. We are coming back. .

Amazing restaurant. Everything is made from scratch. They use white meat chicken for the chicken entrees. Great service.

Forbidden Palace is a lost memory. From a once pleasant dining experience, forbidden palace has transformed into a unparalleled experience of poop. Looking past the glossy space murals covering every flat space and beyond the traditional 'gen z' ironic jazz, you just dodge these really stupid 'service' robots to reach booths. NOW the adventure begunsbegins. Overy seasoned spare ribs should be more accurately titled 'five spice powder with shadow of spare ribs'. Cucumber salad is spot on: a cucumber with mirin, oil and sesame seeds. Passable. Bao are the exact same packaging as found across the street in kroger. Prefab, frozen bao for the cost of an arm and a leg. Peking Duck - isn't. Its poorly roasted duck presented in bony chunks rather than the civilized paper-thin duck of REAL Chinese restaurants ( 3 miles from this place is a true Chinese Peking duck restaurant). Granted, the staff's English is better than my Cantonese, but their failure to grasp essential English terms ( like 'take away boxes) is oddly prevalent. After 'accidentally' clearing the table and throwing away the half of our meals, the staff lost all English capability and rather than reducing the bill to cover what the restaurant staff had discarded, merely shrugged their shoulders. All the while, the dumb@$$ robots are squiggling around singing whistling and bumping into patron and tables, making things generally chaotic. Ten years ago this place was okay. Tried it THREE times in the past two months. Never again. 1 star only because you can't give zero.

Wow I must have hit a bad day or the people giving this restaurant five star have never eaten real or fresh Chinese food. The DinSum was frozen and steameduntil the wrapper melted in to goo and the stuffing was way overcooked so much so I almost could not cut it in half with my knife. Next, the Lumpia was way overcooked to the point when I bit into it I pulled the rest of the stuffing out like a burnt linked sausage. When I told our waiter the food was way overcooked and bad and wanted to re do our order He told us that the chef said that is the way lumpia is suppose to be. I told him we have had Lumpia many places and this was way overcooked. The waiter then told us they had already started cooking our entrees so we would have to pay for the entire meal. We asked for the manager and complained about the Lumpia and the din sum and he said he would remove the Lumpia from our bill then we received our bill only to find the Lumpia was still on the check. They finally removed it from the bill but we still had to pay for the rest of the meal. I have eaten at hundreds of Chinese restaurants and this was the worse one. I guess I should have booked when the robot waiter took us to our table and the menu was as thick as a novel.

This use to be our favorite. The last two visits the food and service a huge disappointment. Ugh, so sad!
