Abysmal. Cheese rolls were absolutely swimming in grease let alone there was zero cheese in them. 8 euro for two of them is robbery. At least make sure they are edible quality. 3 in 1 has hardly any curry which is even more annoying when i specifically asked for extra curry. Taste wise it was poor regardless. The standard of food was abysmal considering the price they charge. Disgrace to even let that food out the door for delivery

What recent reviewers mention most:
Friendly staff
Mandarin Palace is the very best of Ferrybank. It truly feels like a second home away from home. It is run by a Chinese family that is always welcoming and makes every guest feel comfortable. Its a true Palace, with restaurant and cafe with different spots for everyone to find their place and still be among all. Great music and amazing food. The America flag colours the ceiling for those who cheer on big dreams. And if you just want a pint and play some dart it's also fine.
Yummie food and staff so friendly. Always enjoy it
