Noble Palace Chinese Seafood Restaurant, Phillip

Restaurants, Chinese, Yum Cha, BYO, Has Bar

Firstly - the mud crab hot pot/vermicelli dish they do here is amazing. So good that often they sell out of mud crabs, so I always call to reserve one before I come. It's quite a large restaurant so you don't feel as cramped as other Canberran chinese places. Service isn't amazing, but there are a few really friendly and helpful wait staff.

I've come for yum cha a few times, and I think it's much better than the other yum cha options in Canberra (miles ahead, in fact), although not quite up there with the Sydney options!

I've always had wonderful experiences at Pulp, and have dined there quite a few times. The food is delicious, with some interesting/original options and a brilliant wine list to match. I really enjoy the vibe of the place - it's always quite busy, and sitting outside in the warmer months is just lovely. Highly recommended.

I had high hopes, and the food was quite delicious and well-crafted... however I thought the ambience was a bit lacking. Not much character to place. Staff were attentive and polite, but it didn't feel like the fine dining experience that the price of the food would suggest.

A nice choice for fresh, intense thai flavours. Their 2-for-1 deal on Mondays and Tuesdays is excellent value (otherwise their dishes are a little more on the expensive side for Thai), and a great opportunity to try a few different dishes.

The entrees (particularly the fish cakes and corn fritters) are simply delicious and shouldn't be missed. At first, I found some of the salads a bit over-seasoned and full on, but have learnt to love and appreciate the intensity of the dishes. The crispy fish salad and chicken salad are great, however, I wasn't a huge fan of their curries.

Great wine list, good service as well. Definitely recommended for a different kind of thai experience!

Consistently delicious! I always enjoy their curries, duck dishes and pad thai. Service is Ok, and the ambience is quite nice (especially compared to other Asian restaurants in Canberra). Always a reliable choice for Thai!

Authentic and quality chinese food, this is why it's always busy and full of Chinese people! Service isn't always speedy. Fresh seafood dishes such as the lobster and crab are some of the best to be found in Canberra.

Amazing value, amazing rare beef pho and amazing spring rolls! I don't go there for the service or ambience, but the food is consistently good (although I've only tried a few, can't go past my favourites) and think it's some of the best vietnamese I've ever had!
