Staff was rude to delivery person. I'm quoting: " Order just came through, and you guys just turned up!" Repeating themselvrs twice. Consequently I shall never pick-up another delivery from them nor dine-in.

Unfortunately, our experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The staff were not friendly and came across as rude. I also felt there was discriminatory behavior toward Asian customers, which was deeply upsetting. What made things worse was that they asked us to take our 10-month-old daughter outside because she was crying—despite the fact that other children at nearby tables were also crying and allowed to stay. This unfair treatment made us feel very uncomfortable, and we rushed through our meal just to leave as soon as possible. We did not enjoy our visit and will not be returning.

My experience at the Imperial Palace in Harrogate was unpleasant. Upon arrival, we were met with unwelcoming staff. The food was overly salty and the male waiter was rude and unfriendly. He even asked us to remove our 10-month-old baby from the restaurant due to noise, while we were still in the process of eating. This was extremely disappointing and upsetting for both myself and my child. I will never be returning to this restaurant as they clearly do not cater for families with children.

Firstly I would like to say I have visited in the past and the food has been good, so this is not a complaint about food. We arrived at 5.20pm on a Saturday without a booking. We did try to call but no answer. On arriving we can see the restaurant is only perhaps a quarter full, so thought we might be in luck. Unfortunately we were not, and that is OK, we hadn't a table booked so no problem. What I do have a problem with is the lady behind the bar when I enquired about a table, literally shouting at me to go away, you didn't book come back later! Seriously I only asked any chance that you have a table. I didn't push or ask repeatedly. I asked just once if they had a table free. No need to shout at me! I don't mind they didn't have one. It happens. It's a shame really, had driven there on the off chance as my kids are visiting from university. And just because of the attitude. I will never go back. The friends I have recommended in the past I will tell what happened. And of course, I posted here too. I appreciate some might think I am being petty, but when anyone goes to any kind of establishment. With the intent of spending money which they require to function. The very least they can do is be polite. Just say sorry we are fully booked. That's all it takes.

Though this restaurant has the option of paying a set amount of money and then you can eat as much as you want to. It is not a cheap fast food eatery. It has good service and the quality of the food is very good and well presented. they do not hurry you and the wine list is also OK

We stay in Harrogate regularly to eat here, and travel all the way from The Lake District to do so, it's that good. Have spent a lot of time in Hong Kong and I have to say the food is excellent, and consistently so. We have nothing like this where we live and the only other place anywhere near as good is in Manchester. If you know what good quality Cantonese food is, you will love it love it love it here.

Booked a table for 7:30 but arrived at 7:20, only to be told our table wasn’t ready. We were asked to wait in the takeaway area with a drink, which we did. By 7:50, the previous diners were still eating and drinking with no sign of leaving. The owner showed no remorse or apology, simply stating he couldn’t ask them to leave and suggesting we go elsewhere. We ended up doing just that—across the road at a fantastic Thai restaurant with excellent food and service. Safe to say, we won’t be returning here.

I don’t hold restaurant responsible as the just eat app showed the courier at the restaurant for 15-20mins. Snowy conditions yes but something with the app and driver was not working! I got a courier on his way update followed by he’s 1min away almost at the same time! £75 for cold late food is not ok!

The best all you-can-eat Chinese in Harrogate, hands down. If you want good quality food in unlimited quantities then go here! Seriously, I don't want to make it out that this is simply quantity over quality. The food is VERY good and everything is cooked to order and the service is quick. Literally amazing when you consider it's £20 at peak times plus a beer.

This place is probably best suited to hungry drinkers after a session. In a nutshell, the range of starters (order as much as you want), can only be described as the chef has been to Iceland and deep fried the party food. All edible but fairly bland. Tastiest, were the salt and pepper bones. After this it goes downhill fast. The mains were what tasted and looked like canned chicken in stock that had just a hint of flavour of the sauce it was pretending to be. If you are after a nice Chinese restaurant, keep scrolling

Seems to be the default destination of the unimaginative in Harrogate, so much so most don’t realise you can get identical food with better service for less round the corner at Cheung Won. For Imperial, the food is acceptable as it arrives piping hot and resembling what you order. However, the wait staff are brusk and somewhat cold, treating you very much like you’re an inconvenience to them, plus if they mistakenly put someone else’s dishes on your table (even if you have ordered these) they will stand there scowling at you for their mistake. Furthermore, the interior tries to exude an air of superiority, only to serve as an amplifier for every inane conversation in the restaurant; the result being a volume akin to a Prodigy concert when the place is busy, great if you wish to masticate ‘Chinese’ food whilst listening to how someone 3 tables away is suffering with their Fybromyalgia. If you get dragged here by someone else then you will get served edible food, however I would not choose to eat here.

We have visited Imperial Palace a couple of times now and always had an enjoyable good value meal. Whilst there isn’t a huge list of dishes to choose from, there is a good selection and plenty to keep cater for the tables different tastes. The mixed starter is a good place to start and the supplement for the duck is worth paying. Would certainly recommend on the basis that it is all you can eat for under £20!

Wonderful place for a meal in Harrogate. We walked in on the off chance without a reservation, and although busy, we were seated immediately. Fast service from very attentive staff. It's a buffet restaurant with a difference. Rather than going up to the food area and filling your plate, you are seated and served with whatever you want from the menu for a reasonable fixed price. We were encouraged to order more than one starter each and offered more than one main meal each, too! I can't remember exactly how much it cost per person, but I know it was under £20 each. This, of course, didn't include drinks, which were also reasonably priced. The food itself was all excellent. The mixed starter platter is fantastic for a little taste of a lot of different items. 😋 I would also recommend the chicken in black pepper sauce, which was delightful. I'd have given the atmosphere 5*'s if the tables weren't so close together, but I can't really complain because, like I said already, they were busy and still managed to fit us in.

The Imperial in Harrogate is a place of culinary excellence with food that is exceptionally good and cooked to order. Each dish bursts with flavour, making it a must-visit for any food enthusiast. However, the experience is marred by subpar customer service. The staff often appear rude and hurried, creating a rushed atmosphere even when the restaurant is not busy. This lack of attentiveness and warmth detracts significantly from the dining experience. Additionally, being presented with a card machine that suggests a tip for poor service feels inappropriate and presumptive. Overall, while the food at The Imperial is undeniably outstanding, the poor customer service leaves much to be desired. It is a place for those who prioritize excellent food over a welcoming and pleasant dining environment.
