The walnut shrimp is another customer favorite, enveloped in a rich sauce that melds sweetness with crunch, though it might be a little polarizing for some.

Regulars like Jaime Riega express nostalgia and a sense of connection, influenced by the fusion of flavors reminiscent of “chifa” cuisine found in Peru. Meanwhile, Marco Lopez appreciates the sheer nostalgia that comes with each visit, calling it a Whittier staple that holds fast against cookie-cutter franchises.

I have been coming here for the last 20 years when in the area and never feel disappointed. Im peruvian and the flavor for their chow mein is the closest from the “chifa” in Peru which is a fusion of peruvian and Chinese cuisine. Bold flavor, good family portions for sharing in a rotating top on the table.

Really good food. If coming with a big party, better make a reservation so you don’t have to wait.

my wife & i have been eating at the silver palace for many years and the food is great !!! our favorite waiter is steve, he is the best ! we have stoped going there is because we found BLACK HAIR in our food ! obviously the cooks don't wear hair nets or hats. the other reason is we love their cookies, and when you ask for more they charge 10$ for more cookies ! they lost a good customer !!!

I love the Silver dinner with special chow mein. I also love the walnut shrimp but the sauce is probably not for everyone. The portions are great and it's just good comfort food.

food was really good! portions were great. only thing that ruined my experience was the server telling me they dont have dessert.... really because i can clearly see the table across from me enjoying dessert. just bad customer service.

Ehhhh. Struggling to understand why it is rated so high, but maybe I just ordered all the wrong things? This is one of the few times that the food actually looked better then it tasted. The rice was exciting because you don't expect all the protein in a side order of rice. The red bits of beef though were large and unappetizing. The shrimp was good. Beef and broccoli was decent. The soup was not good at all, and I could smell the seasame oil through the entire bag. The cream cheese wonton was good, regular, not sweet.... Still good though! Egg roll was a little soggy on the inside, mush. Paper chicken was probably one of the worst things I heave eaten in awhile. Looks like an 8/10, but the taste is at a 5. Probablly wouldn't try again. I appreciate that they keep up with the care of the fish, I have seen other places neglect them, but these seemed fine. The decor of the restaurant was very outdated. Could be a great place, just isn't.

Absolutely nostalgic lunch. Silver Palace has been a Whittier staple for years. Service is fast. I had the Wor Wanton Soup and it's a meal and then some. Wifey had the snow peas with beef and the chicken fried rice. Excellent choices. In an era of cookie cutter franchised restaurants and trendy restaurants support a locally owned classic.
