Order Food in petone

Food isn’t bad. Place looks a bit shady and the service was quite robotic but at least it gets the job done. The noise of the kitchen cooking can be heard throughout the whole store which makes conversations a bit harder to hear. Quickly readied order in less than 10 minutes and got an overall satisfactory dinner for some noodles.

Great food. The chips and vegetable fried rice are particularly good. Reasonable prices, friendly staff and clean premises.

Good jumbo burger and half scoop of fries

Excellent authentic Turkish dinning experience. Ordered the chefs special meze and a side of mix meat, and both were made to perfection. The Turkish uncle gave us this recommendation and it was on point with what we were looking for. His enthusiasm when discussing the food, alongside the decor of this establishment, provided a comforting and genuine atmosphere to accompany our meal. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

Great food! The chicken wings are way better than KFC! Fish and chips are a perfect crisp! Love this takeaway!

This restaurant has giving me a great curiosity and challenged me to have a lunch here: 1. Why someone named a restaurant a FORBIDDEN CITY? It's very COOL like a movie title, but it's not. 2. It have a neon sign when open, even in the afternoon. It's weird but interesting for me! 3. the interior was not very inviting but at the same time very authentic?? 4. And then.. Serving an authentic chinese peking duck as a recommended menu?? 5. Some of the so-called Halal food wasn't leave a good impressions but okay I give it a try. I came with my wife on her birthday because she's craving peking duck from a long time, and we growing curiosity in this restaurant together. We ordered Roasted duck and Corn soup. The soup arrived first. My impressions is positive. The flavour was balanced. When you put some soy sauce and chilli oil, it hits different!! It was very perfect because we eating when outside is rainy so it warm our mouth, head and body. The roasted pecking duck became our "main course", along with the rice. We are very overwhelmed with the flavour. It's juicy, delicious, crispy skin... We could never want anything more than this!! The last bite still feel it's was first bite.. What an experience. When we finished and wanna pay, I never expected this: they selling the chilli oil!! Chilli oil here is very mandatory and never skip this on every meals here. Forbidden City is a proof that your restaurant doesn't have to be a gimmicky interior and striking sign to be a good restaurant. The name itself, the food, is enough reason to you why you should stop here and go home with the stuffed stomach. Very recommended.
