Ocean Palace - City of Albany

The place looks like a dump but the food is surprisingly fresh and

Great place to grab a meal and tons of selection. The server is helpful and upbeat.

This is always the first place I recommend when people ask about Chinese food in Albany. They recently opened back up for dine-in service and it’s a joy to sit there for lunch. My recent favorite dish is the chicken with Chinese vegetables lunch special but have loved the congee and other dim sum items as well as classics like orange chicken and beef with garlic sauce. They’re also so nice!

I absolutely loved the lunch I just had here. I dined in and the owner was an absolute gem. She was warm and welcoming, and the meal I received really felt home-cooked. I chose Mongolian beef made spicy (a 6) and it was precisely what I'd hoped for. I especially loved the light touch of fresh ginger added to the stir fry. Next time I visit I'll crank up the spicy level a bit more, as I like it to hurt a bit ? I definitely recommend Ocean Palace.

I won’t back to albany because of the fraud review. I ate here by score 4.5 but….
