Peking Palace in South Lanarkshire

Food was really good staff very helpfull decor ok inside

Lovely Chinese food, quick service, nice staff and reasonably priced

First time dining here. I would highly recommend this place. The food is great and the staff are very friendly .

Been going here for years and never had a bad meal yet staff are great service very good, you will not be disappointed give it a try.

Very very tasty food great friendly and amazing service highly recommended

First time here, was don't think I'll be in a hurry to go back. Staff were nice and service was good

Popped in for curry 2take away for lunch absolutely beautiful best I have had in ages

Ordered as a move to new house treat and was blown away by how good the food was! One of the better Chinese I've tried ina few years now!

May not look too inviting from the outside but enter through the door and you will find a really excellent Chinese restaurant. Interior is typical with a large great wall mural and the obligatory fish tank but its bright and comfortable. All the favourites are there on a big menu.Our Sweet and sour chicken Cantonese was excellent. A large portion of Prawn Crackers is provided free with each meal. A special mention for the very helpful staff who gave us great service. The restaurant is situated on East Kilbride Rd. adjacent to the Cathkin Hotel. A really nice evening of Chinese style dining

Have been going to the Peking Palace for family special occasions for a long, long time. This was our first visit since being under new management. Read some pretty poor reviews before the visit, but I'm going to put them to bed. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff. It was quiet as we were in early around 1700. We were quickly sat in a booth and had our drinks order with us very promptly. My wife and I chose from the Pre Theatre Set meal which was fairly extensive and well priced at three courses for £18. To feed the kids we picked a couple of winners from the A la carte menu. For starters we had Peking ribs, mini spring rolls, and chicken noodle soup. All of which were prepared to a very high standard and arrived in good time. I maybe should have asked for a full portion of the ribs as they were that good, two each between my son and I didn't seem like enough. But they were delicious. For mains we had Salt and Pepper Crispy Chicken (no veg) (kids), Crispy Shredded Chicken in Peking sauce, Chicken Satay Skewers, Fried Rice and Chips between four. We did think initially that the salt and pepper chicken portion was on the small side, but it ended up being an appetiser portion for the boys to share. For the record, they still didn't polish it off. Crispy Shredded Chicken was top notch, very crispy and coated with a lovely Peking style sauce. Satay Skewers were slightly spicier than I remember, but this is not a bad thing. I quite liked the level of heat. Skewers cooked perfectly with a great texture and extremely delicious. Fried rice was very tasty and kept warm in it's serving dish, it which I loved. The chips were very well cooked and crispy too. To finish off we had two banana fritters, a pineapple fritter and a bowl of ice cream. Fritters were excellent. Crispy batter with plenty of syrup over them. With a can of juice each we were £70. Which I think for three courses and full bellies for four is pretty reasonable nowadays. Yes, the decor could be modernised a bit, but the restaurant has been de cluttered and seems more spacious and roomy. I find it quite nostalgic coming back to the same restaurant time after time and remembering all the great family meals I've had in this place. Hopefully it keeps going and we can enjoy it for years to come. My family and I would highly recommend you pop in and give it a try.

Got a beef chow mein. Quite honestly the blandest thing I have eaten since dry bread

Got the set meal three course got ribs in gravy 3 not very much then chicken satay not a lot of sauce to cover the rice and the ice cream had ice bits in it would not get it again next time will try a la cart hopefully will be a lot better

Cant believe Im the first one here mentioning the vegan options. Really nice food, such a great choice will definitely be back 2nd visit- vegan duck also is delicious but black bean sauce too salty

This changed hands last in the last year or two. Tried it once and found the food to be super bland and the chicken might as well have been sloppy tofu.

Good menu lovely staff and smashing food highly recommend going here for Chinese meal

7 of us went for meal very pleasant staff. Was really busy will definitely be back.

Been a regular customer since the 1980s. The food and service is outstanding. But…the fabric of the building is terrible. It’s clean, but so so dated. Sort the toilets out guys

Went here for dinner with our adult family & grankids. The food was lovely. You need to try their satay sauce it's the best I've tasted. 👌

Lovely staff beautiful food 😍 😋 👌

Tried this over the years as it’s a close local to us. It was took over about a year ago and it’s only got better and better. Portion sizes are also a lot better. Would highly recommend the satay sauce best we’ve had in and arrived Glasgow. Hard 1 to beat.

Came in last minute with a friend for some lunch. The food was excellent. Will definitely me back.

18:00 on a Sunday, restaurant almost empty and cold. Very good food, good service.

Starter wasn't great mix we asked for vegetarian spring rolls but got meat & fish in them. Mains were delicious I'd recommend the satay. Staff were great as we had some busy/noisy kids and they were great with them. Would go back for sure.

Excellent service and excellent quality food would definitely recommend a visit will be returning again

Ordered chicken satay today I'm lucky if there's 4 tablespoons of satay sauce in container,ordered this a couple of weeks ago and there was hardly any sauce,so decided today to order it without veg thinking there would be more sauce but actually less sauce,this is the kind of annoying service that makes people change their Chinese takeaway

It's a fabulous restaurant , great food excellent pre theatre, huge portions nice friendly team

Staff where lovely and really good especially with kids running about a little bit, always attended to us when we asked for anything, they where also very nice with us taking food away that we couldn't finish, The fortune cookies where the icing on cake for me. Highly recommend.

Great taste and great price, try it yourself. 😋

Just had a delivery of chicken sweetcorn soup , 2 chicken dishes and fried rice……delicious…. Peking Palace is back .

Absolutely loved it , food hot portion size excellent, taste superb quality definitely be back soon.

Myself and 2 friends go for lunch and a catch up once a month great food and service at a great price 😁

Nice place and decent meals. The customer service was 👍.

Spicy hot pot ordered, not sure if that's what I got? But, what I got was tasty enough.

Was at this restaurant for the first time in almost a year . I had my favourite meal Cantonese Sliced Fillet Steak which I usually have at this restaurant , I was extremely disappointed with the taste , and quantity of the meat , left half of it as it wasn’t good .

Gone down hill with the quality of carry out food. Chicken very poor and curry sauce full of salt, used to enjoy a meal from here but standards have dropped

Used to come here all the time before being taken over..came on sat evening.. won't be coming back..food was not very nice and the staff not as pleasant as used to be..not a good experience

This was always our family go to for special occasions for many years. The food is different under the new management it’s bland and the service isn’t as good. Won’t be back

First take away since being taken over. Seemed unorganized, although food did not take long. Tried something different, it would have helped having description on the menu. Food was good, but not what we expected.

Food was nice but being charged £2.80 for a can of coke is just taking the piss. I can buy 24 cans in Tesco for £10, If I bought 24 cans here it would cost me £67.20. I understand the have to make a profit but come on.

First time in Peking Palace. Unplanned stop off, We were greeted with kindness and accommodated even though they were fully booked, Meal was Delicious, Definitely will be Back.

Visited here on a Saturday night after had been closed for short time. Is now under new management & from our experience has improved. They also now do a pre theatre menu which never had before on a weekend. We had chicken noodle soup & Peking ribs to start followed by chicken curry & Singapore chow mein. The ribs & the chicken in the curry were melt in the mouth tender. Which is not always the case with Chinese. The new owner Kevin came over to make sure our dining experience was ok & welcomed feedback. We will definitely be visiting again soon to try the ALC menu. Keep up the high standards PP.

Now just reopened under new management. Had a lovely pre theatre meal on Saturday evening. Food was all delicious. Service amazing. The new owner Kevin even visited our table to get feedback on our dining experience.

Place isn't the most modern but one of those restaurants that I would say don't let the look put you off. Food was tremendous. Will defo be back again

I've not used this place for at least 20 year, but used to be a regular when I last lived in the area, so when I saw a Facebook post on a local community page that they had re-opened, I thought I'd give it a go. It was, without a doubt, the worst chinese takeway meal I've ever eaten. The word "bland" just doesn't cover it adequately. One of our mains was Kung Po pork - it came in a really watery sauce with no spice or kick to it and the meat was fatty. Our other main, a king prawn meal was equally bland, although the prawns were adequate in texture. The sweetcorn and crab soup, didn't actually have crab in it, so one for trading standards to ponder. Having just noticed the other recent poor reviews when I camer to write this, I regret not checking them out sooner. I'll be giving this place a wide berth from now on as it's clearly declined.

Excellent portions. Lovely food, relaxed atmosphere.

Excellent, and the food is the best

The worst of the worst, please don’t go. Without going into the detail. The quality and the taste of the food was awful. So very disappointing!!!

Massively over priced and food definitely did not match its price tag and 4 quid for a small tin of Tennants is scandalous. Went here a few years ago and food was good it has changed alot. You don't mind an expensive bar if the food is amazing but just doesn't balance

Extremely disappointed - booked for a meal on New Year’s Day- dine in and got a phone call today - that’s Friday 30th December 2022 cancelling my booking.

Best chicken curry ever luv this chinese😎

Attended recently for a family dinner - we have been going here for years and it used to be a firm favourite. Firstly, on this occasion the food wasn't to the usual high standard. Not sure if there have been staff changes in the kitchen but it just wasn't to our liking. Which is fair enough and a matter of opinion. The main issue is what has put me off returning, and that was one of the female staff members. We had a young baby in our party, who was welcomed heartily (great start) and given a high chair. One staff member in particular was keen to make a fuss of the baby (again- great) and offered her hands out to take the baby. This was politely declined. Baby was sat happily playing with a spoon which the waitress for some reason decided to come over and take from her, and then sing and clap in her face, causing the baby to cry. A short time later same waitress brought a bottle of prosecco to the table, and proceeded to hand the twisted metal and Cork to the baby (taken back promptly by childs parent). Another short time later same waitress approached the table and handed baby a prawn cracker which again was taken back with a 'no, don't do that please' by the parent. Same waitress then proclaimed "some chips will be good for her" when the food was brought to the table. She was nothing short of irritating, continually putting her hands in babies face, pushing interaction from the child. All it meant was that the babies parents could not relax, could not eat in peace and were also on high alert for the next dangerous article or inappropriate food item to be given to the baby. Whilst it is always nice to be welcomed as a family and nice to have your child admired, our whole party was shaking their heads in disbelief. I'm afraid it has put us off returning as it was not an enjoyable or relaxing experience.

Being coming here for a few years now for business lunches , always quite but food delicious and staff very nice , so my mum thought it would be nice to book a family get together for Christmas Day as my brother and nephew who live in France where coming home , so she booked for 14 of us , we arrived at 3.45 for our 4 o’clock sitting we where left waiting for 45 minutes to be seated , my mum is 79 and my dad is 90 , finally seated , after 20 mins we asked could we have a drink , finally the starter arrived at 5.30 , then waited another hour for the main courses to come out , first 9 meals came out , the Brussel sprouts where frozen inside, and the turkey was covered with the most horrendous sauce , another 10 mins before the steak came out , and my mum sat another 15 mins waiting for hers , we had already finished ours , asked 4 times where was her dinner , only to be rudely told I’m only a waiter , yeah now for dessert it arrived at 6.45 again only half came out , staff totally stressed , eventually coming out with the rest of the desserts and placing them at the bottom of the table , for us to give out ourselves , once they where finished after 20mins , we thought let’s get the bill never mind the tea and coffees, the meal minus drinks should had been £772 pounds , as they added a 10% service charge , 😂😂 we did complain and the manager removed the service charge , never again totally ruined our day , worse dinning experience EVER, another table actually cheered and wished everyone a happy new year when they finally got their meal .

Had Xmas dinner yesterday, we arrived 1600, didn't get starter until 1715, didn't get main until 1815, vegetables including potatoes cold, 14 in the party, got fed up complaining at the time, table wasn't set when we got there, it was very cramped for a party of 14, Xmas totally spoiled, had family up from England and from France. Will never set foot in the place again. To make things even worse, there was also a huge hole in the car park which has been barriered off, the barriers had been knocked over and in the dark you can't see the hole, someone drove there car into the hole and couldn't get it out!!! No satisfaction at all at the end after speaking to the manager, he only dropped the service charge but there was no service. What a joke.

Absolute nightmare of a day don’t even spend your hard earned money at this place service is poor and slow staff are rude end of the day I was stressed and I suffer with anxiety and had a anxiety attack and had to go to the toilet to calm down because of the stress this place caused me as it was waiting nearly 1 and half hour for each course to be put out I was in the place for 4 hours what a waste of my money and time

Amazing!! This was out first time coming to this restaurant and the staff are so lovely and the food was excellent, We ordered salt and chilli chicken and a chicken curry would highly recommend the salt and chilli chicken, As said staff were lovely and very accommodating.

Staff couldn’t be more accommodating and waiter Tony was such a lovely guy with a backstory that I was happy to hear. Food was lovely you get your monies worth and the prices are really reasonable I recall the place in the 90s and recall the place bustling at the seams not like that these days too much choice on offer but get your arses back and support a local business ;) Meal was excellent but need to get draft beer back!

Went here with around 30+ family members and I ordered : King prawn balls with sweet n sour dip: it was Awful and not king prawn. There was no king prawn just a minced mush inside a weird bread and batter. I suspect it was shrimp paste and that is not what I ordered so be careful if you order it. (picture of it added). Sadly the waitress who picked up the entire uneaten dish said NOTHING to me, she just took it and left (no question as to why I left it all) ( Say nothing and Take the money instead attitude) Combination fried rice was not fit for a dog, it looked bland, it tasted bland and I gave the whole dish back to the server who did ask If i wanted something else but I said no just give me some fried rice. I ate a small portion of fried rice and left. Got food at our local takeaway on the way home and ate all of it as I was starving. Never never never go here.. it's poor quality food and I also question if they are substituting other foods to save money. WILL NEVER GO BACK. Awful awful.

Have used the Peking Palace for over 35 years and I'm disappointed about how much it has gone down hill. Our food order was dire and to make matters worse the service was atrocious. When I took food back and complained counter staff attempted to belittle me in front of the owner / manager who said he'd deal with it. I won't be back and as I've shared ny experience I've learned that I'm not alone.

Sorry not up to the usual standard, that's the first time in over 30years I've been a little disappointed, hopefully just a blip.

Great food and service in both restaurant and take away. Picked up our takeaway order and realised when we got home they had missed one of our meals ordered. Called restaurant and manager delivered missing dish and food was excellent.

Every visit to my wife’s Aunt is never complete without a visit to the Peking Palace. The food is always outstanding, and in particular the Duck in Plum Sauce. The staff go out of their way to make sure you enjoy the experience.

This place used to be amazing, dunno what happened. Order a chicken curry. Must’ve been the night befores chips as they were soggy. Chicken was rubbery and could taste the oils through the sauce. Only edible thing were the prawn crackers. Left my mum with a sore stomach also.

THE BEST chicken curry I have had in a long time! So fresh! 100000% will be back

Nice surroundings but disappointed with food and desserts so solid (frozen) struggling to eat

Just had a take away from here called at 5 big mistake got last nights reheated chips and the curry was look warm called to speak to the manager who says he waould go into the kitchen and check that they weren’t reheated shouldn’t have to check shouldn’t be allowed disgusting won’t be back

First class will definitely return

Beautiful food, lovely staff and service!

food too pricey. Too fast paced. Not got the good vibe feel anymore. Sorry!!

Whats not to like here,always delicious meals

please do not buy anything from this restaurant I was here and they charged me for a special corry and a large portion of fried rice 9. 95 and I only had a little beef and chicken and it is a robbery 100%and I have to give them credit the food tastes good but it has nothing no meat no seafood

Love this place. Food staff and atmosphere fantastic.

Good food..enjoyed it very much but it would be enhanced as a restuarant to go to if they improved the ambience of the place. No music..bright lights..basic...a shame.

best Chinese in the area bar none.

Excellent food and staff very friendly.

First time getting a takeaway from this establishment . Food was ok , can't say anything bad about the food . Would I go back , probably . But wouldn't go out of my way. Its certainly worth a try

Great food,friendly staff. Will definitely go back

Food good and staff very welcoming 🙂

1st visit since before lockdown and new owners. Salt and pepper chicken fresh and tasty, prawn cocktail same. Chicken satay better than before. Fillet of beef Thai style, did not disappoint. We’ll definitely be back. Fast and efficient table service and lovely friendly staff

I was a bit disappointed with our starter could have been cooked a bit longer. The times I have been before I had no complaints the food was lovely. I hope this was a one off, I will go back.

Beautiful food, staff very friendly and helpful 👌

Nice place and nice food, would've been 4 stars if there wasn't a fish tank

Stars gone from 5 to 1 due to food going to wrong address and manager refusing to accept his staff got it wrong when you give the correct postcode, town and door number but they go to wrong postcode, town and address. Not drivers fault, he was lovely and very apologetic unlike the Manager

The best Chinese takeaway in a long time superb

Great to have the Palace back again and putting out great food again. Business lunch still great value

Large clean restaurant with good carparking. Food really nice and friendly attentive staff. Well worth a visit.

Booked a table for lunch for 1.30. When booked wasn't told they close at 2.00. bad service. Should never have taken a booking for that time.

We have been customers of Peking Palace for well over 20 years.We have visited the restaurant as a family and I have visited on a regular basis with colleagues(4/5 times every year))We also regularly had carry outs with lemon chicken being my sons favourite.This week we decided to give the restaurant our first order since it reopened under new management. Unfortunately we were very disappointed.We ordered 3 meals , 2 of which were lemon chicken.While the portions were fine regarding the chicken,the sauce was sparse and watery.The third dish was chicken and prawn Peking style.Again watery sauce with only 4 VERY small prawns ,light years away from before.The rice was ok as were the prawn crackers which were plentiful.I didn’t in the past mind paying more than you would generally for a Chinese carry out as it was quality food .This was mediocre for above average prices.Sorry Peking Palace I think this is the end of a beautiful and long friendship.

Love this restaurant and food is great

Meals where delish we where there celebrating our 47th anniversary and our friends 53rd annivetsary staff so nice.kevin gave us a complimentary drink to celebrate very kind.will be back soon was glad to hear opened for lunch will go soon fov lunch with friends.

ate here last night food was great as was the service only four stars due to there being four of us at the restaurant and three ordered fried rice with their meal and this was served up in a single share dish, otherwise very enjoyable meal

Delicious food, both in restaurant and take away. Thank you for reopening .

Great food and friendly service

Had a lovely meal from peking palace in burnside earlier . Chicken satay was tasty and soft , crispy peking chicken was full of flavour and crispy chicken , salt and Chili chicken just the right a pint of spice and sweet and sour chicken fell of soft chicken . Really enjoyed my meal and this will be my new favourite takeaway till we can go in for a sit down meal. Good quality and service

Sampled the newly reopened peking palace me u tonight and wasn’t disappointed. This is my new favourite go to Chinese. We shared the chicken satay , crispy peking chicken , sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style and salt and chilli chicken . Lovely soft fresh chicken pieces with not too much veg and lots of tasty sauce with some prawn crackers to clean it up. Can’t wait to go in to sit down once we can . Easy to park and great me y and service . Will be back soon

Having used the Peking Palace since it opened around 1990, I was disappointed to see it close in Feb 2020.It has recently re-opened and I was pleased to give the takeaway a try. My family ordered:• Chicken satay• Beef Satay• Breast of chicken curry• Chicken fried rice• 2 boiled, 1 fried rice & 1 chipsIn short, all were excellent. The satay was familiar but even better than we remembered, but great comments on all dishes! The food was hot and fresh and the portions were generous.It has never been the cheapest, and that lot cost me £38.Speaking to the new owner, he was a waiter there 20 tears ago and has managed to retain some on the chefs.Will definitely be back, looking forward to a sit-in after restrictions have eased.

Think just had the best chicken curry I've ever had

Ordered breast of chicken fried rice with gravy sauce. I will never go back here again. It only reopened on the 25th February and I was craving a peking palace chicken fried rice. When I got it home it was a large tub of fried rice with peas and sweet corn through it chicken on top and a tiny weenie splash of gravy didn’t even cover the chicken never mind coat the rice. Chicken was rubbery and tasteless rice was greasy and I had toMake gravy in the house to try and rescue the dish. Overpriced also at £7.50. I will NOT be returning very disappointed

Favourite restaurant to go out to with family and friends. Have been going for years. Staff are polite and excellent at their job. Food is fantastic and pretheatre menu is great value. Recommend the chicken satay, chow mein and the pineapple fitters.

Lovely meal.Staff were so attentive and great with the grandchildren.

This restaurant is a fantastic place to eat for all the family, The service is excellent and always great value for money, fresh and tasty with a great choice of dishes.
