Newest Review: ... processing plant that was playing host to a convention of fan manufacturers. Worse still, the walls are smeared with a chow mein of Polaroid’s recording the serving staff meeting local stars. These local stars are generally toon players, local TV weather girls and commercial radio DJ’s, and consequently they present a mosaic of tipped mullets, Nehru collars and fake tan. So to ... more

 ... the food, you might as well eat now you’re here. The first obstacle to this is the serving staff. After ten minutes it is clear that a sniper has struck us down with an invisibility rifle. They waltz past the four of us umpteen times as if it w...more

Most definately the most undiscovered Chinese Reseraunt in Newcastle! I can strongly recommend this resteraunt for intimate / family / parties / all ages / business meals - any time of the day. The food quality is exceptional and the service is the right side of comfortable. There was absolutely no 'get them in, fed and out' as found in most of the Stowell Street establishments. The Staff are welcoming and friendly.

You think you know somebody quite well, you’ve been friends for years, you’ve shared many a boozy session in which you’ve discussed this that and the other. You think you have a connection a bit of common ground, you think, naively, that you have similar opinions. Then out of the blue they suggest that you try the Waterside Palace for their birthday. You look at him in horror. Perhaps this is irony one of his little jokes. Unfortunately it isn’t. He actually does want to go there and worse still he wants you to go with him along with two of your other mates. It’s a complete nightmare. How do you tell him? You can’t very well ...  Read the complete review

If you are not familiar with the city of Newcastle, then you might miss The Waterside Palace. The reason for this being that unlike all other Chinese restaurants in Newcastle, it isn't situated in Chinatown's Stowell Street. The restaurant was purpose built in 1996 and it's everyone's idea of what a Chinese restaurant should be. A fantasy pagoda, the Waterside Palace is respendent in red and green. The striking colours are reflected in more muted tones inside where occasional carved screens and lanterns fringe the spacious dining room which overlooks the River Tyne. A haunt of local celecrities, the menu covers the expected ...  Read the complete review
