Customer Reviews
We are here for my husbands work and walked down to the grocery store and decided to go to the Empire Chinese Kitchen and grab some supper. The customer service and the food were wonderful. We will be back next time we are in town.
I’ve given this place two tries now, hoping for a better experience the second time around, but unfortunately, it fell short both times. As someone originally from California, where quick and tasty Chinese food spots are on every corner, it’s been challenging to find a place that meets those expectations here. When I heard about this spot, I was hopeful, but my experiences left much to be desired. On my first visit, I tried their made-to-order dishes. As other reviewers have mentioned, the food was oily and lacked flavor. Determined to give it another shot, I returned for their hot food-to-go options. This time, I ordered the veggie chow mein, sesame chicken, and broccoli beef. The chow mein was a letdown—gummy, overcooked, and tasted like it might have been leftovers from the day before
Update: Whelp the previous are 100% spot-on! Delicious food that’s makes Panda Express feel like a minor league Chinese restaurant! Empire Kitchen does it right! To the family that’s running Empire Kitchen keep up the excellent work, it is incredible food! Hoping the food is as good as everyone is saying! Looks & smells delicious! I ordered a 1/2 order of Fried Dumplings & the Orange Chicken combination platter but subbed Chicken Fried Rice instead of the usual Ham. I added some full menu pics, with the updated pricing.
This place was clean and had good music playing, which was relaxing. I got sweet and sour and sesame chicken. I'm a little disappointed that my sesame chicken did not have sesame seeds on it, but it was delicious. Everything was really tasty and crispy as it should be. The food came out hot and fresh. I recommend it for sure. If you read my review, do me a solid and follow me here of Google. I review restaurants across the country.
Let me make this easy- go elsewhere. Especially if you are looking to sit down and have a nice Chinese meal served to you. This is a To-go style restaurant. So you walk up to the counter, order and if you sit in the dining room your food will still be brought to your table in a Styrofoam container with plasticware. The food-was all soooo oily. More than any food I've ever seen. The soups all tasted like Sesame oil was dumped in them. The rice tasted like canola oil. The Tso chicken and orange chicken was deep fried and bland. The food was hot and prepared fesh besides the lomein and took some time to get. I just won't be back. Not a great experience and $30 for 2 people. Yikes.
