David's Palm Court

I’ve been here multiple times in the past year and I think this restaurant is deserving of a higher rating. I think the food here is pretty good. Their honey chicken is really good, similar to higher end Chinese restaurants, batter is not too thick, soft with a bit of crunch and the honey sauce is tasty. Lots of actual chicken within the batter., the chicken/batter ratio is perfect. Their chicken chow mein is also the best in the area. I’ve tried Riverstone Hong Kong restaurant and Schofields Chinese restaurant … and David’s Palm Court does the best chow mein noodles, hands down, no comparison. I obviously haven’t tried every dish here but based on what I have tried and comparing the same dishes from other local Chinese restaurants I would overall rate David’s Palm higher than Schofields Chinese (which I’ve also eaten quite a few times, various dishes; their chow mein noodles I can safely say was bad in comparison). [I haven’t made my mind up about the Hong Kong restaurant in Riverstone, I’ve only tried one dish there, chicken chow mein noodles, which David’s Palm does much better. I’d need to try more dishes from here before I can give it a proper ranking] David’s Palm imo is very consistent in terms of taste, I’ve ordered from there multiple times and food has been consistent. I haven’t eaten inside the restaurant though because of the pandemic, only have had takeaway. I have no complaints about the service Their lunch specials are available throughout the week, even on Saturdays, you can get honey chicken with fried rice for $9.50 during lunch time which is pretty good value, portion size was good for takeaway. If you’re hesitant about the restaurant’s low review score, I’d suggest you try this dish for lunch first if you want to give it a try. I’ve ordered this lunch special multiple times, and it’s been consistently good. So touch wood it stays that way. Since the recent outbreak/lockdown they’ve blocked off the dining section of the restaurant, you order takeaway/pay at the door, the doorway has a table with the menus on it. There’s limited parking in front of the restaurant but you can usually find a spot. Review date: 9 November 2021
