Reviews
The vibe and service was really good. We didn't have a reservation so we were lucky to have gotten a seat. The food was decently portioned and good for the price. However the restaurant loses a star for the absolute mess of fried rice. It was rice for £3. The Chicken curry sauce was also very grainy like it was made from a can. Overall good! But a little overhyped in my opinion.
Went to Summer Palace twice within a week for two different occasions, one being a big group meal.
Summer Palace is really popular and I feel you'd be unlikely to find a table just by turning up (they do offer a takeaway service though which also appears to be popular).
Must say the food is very tasty, well portioned and all come out quickly. Over my two visits I've sampled a good selection from the menu and all dishes have been of a good quality. Salt and chilli squid, chilli beef and their King Prawn dishes have been particularly tasty.
The waiters and waitresses are all very polite and attentive, and the restaurant itself is nice and cosy without feeling cramped ... no matter the size of your group.
Must say that Summer Palace is one of the best Chinese restaurants I have been to in a while, and I would thoroughly recommend visiting it.
Amazing food, lovely service from all the staff, really kind and helpful will definitely be back soon! Thank you
Personally, I believe this is the best Chinese restaurant in Cardiff. The food is authentic and tastes fantastic. The staff are as attentive and accommodating as is possible and the atmosphere and restaurant is as traditional as it gets.
The prices are reasonable, the service is quick but not forced so you never feel rushed.
I can't recommend the summer palace highly enough. 👍
Called for a takeaway on Friday night, given a time slot to collect and super friendly over the phone!
Food was ready for time given and wow the best Chinese takeaway I’ve come across. Fresh, great quality and tasted great!
Fancied a takeaway this evening and decided on Summer Palace as I had heard and read great reviews about it. Small family run business In Llandaff village.
Ordering was easy via phone (as some places, there’s loads of confusion due to my dietary requirements!) The lady was able to explain and suggest dishes which is always a positive.
The lady at the counter was really polite and friendly when collecting our takeaway. Service was efficient.
All dishes were hot and tasty. Favourites of ours were the fish ginger spring onion, duck with beansprouts and my kids absolutely loved the noodles. Definitely a returning customer!
Had round table at back of restaurant and felt like we were in dumping off ground for excess tables and chairs it was also cold in there no cloth on table so bit dissapointing food good as usual but not same as in previous visits they need to heat place up before opening not the usual standard 🤨
Was exploring Llandaff and just randomly saw this restaurant by chance after visiting nearby attractions. This is my first Cantonese meal since moving from Hong Kong. Very comforting food. This reminds me of home. Thank you.
