"I think the Alamo Palace Chinese Restaurant is maybe a 3.5 for it's food and service. I didn't want to rate it a 3 so I rounded up to 4 stars. The food and service is fine. I met a friend for lunch who only eats Chinese food so we have been trying different Chinese restaurants in Danville, Alamo and San Ramon. I had the string bean and beef lunch special that comes with sweet and sour soup, fried won ton skin, fried egg roll and rice that I upgraded to fried rice for an additional .50; you can upgrade to chow mein for 1.50 in lieu of rice. My buddy got baby Bok Choy and beef with white rice. The string beans were cooked nicely and the beef was soft, the fried items were good and the fried rice was basically eggs and rice fried with garlic (which gave it a nice flavor). My buddy said his lunch special was fine. The lunch specials are around 12 for most plates and you get enough food to fill your belly without overeating. I did learn something important. It is a good idea to ask how the entree is cooked and not assume it is cooked the same everywhere. A gentleman came in and had ordered General Tso's Chicken which is normally fried. He looked at his order and told the Owner it was not correct because it was not fried. The Owner said it was General Tso's Chicken and they don't batter and deep fry the chicken. Free lesson for me and my buddy My food was good and for the price I will go back and try other dishes (double-checking any entrees that I assume are deep fried dishes). I forgot to take pictures of the menu with the prices. Support your local businesses."
