i can't speak for the other reviews on here. personally, it was the best chinese I've had in ages, and the prices were more than fair. The only negative thing I can say about Empire is that I wish they accepted debit.

My go-to local Chinese food spot. Great for takeout. The food is good quality and tasty. =) Friendly and attentive staff. 5 stars from me. I don't go anywhere else unless I'm out of the neighborhood(sheepsheadbay). Fried chicken wings with white rice is favorite. Five stars!

I like every food here except their noodle dishes; noodles are blend. Usually not so busy in the store. Reasonable price and portions.

They are the cheapest chinese resturant and argue and give an attitude about everything. If you order a plate of food and want soy sauce they argue. The food is like anyother chinese food, only thing they open lil later than others but deff never going here again

HORRIBLE SERVICE. HOW DOES CHINESE FOOD TAKE ONE HOUR TO DELIVER?! On top of that, they are rude and don’t offer any apologies. Don’t bother with this place, try another spot.

Worst experience ordered chicken and broccoli got more Broccoli than anything else my other order vegetable lo mein No vegetables just noodles my eggroll wasn’t that much fried sitting down eating Well they’re making your order

D

I just got chicken w/ mix veggies to go. When I opened the lid of container the food was stinking 🤢 They used spoilt chicken. Apparently the cook tried to block the smell by putting extra amounts of sauce but it didn’t work! Gross!

J

Their food was terrible! We found rat droppings and roaches in the food!! Terrible food and never buy food here !

B

I didnt even order food because the lady is nasty! they want $9 for a chicken a broccoli combo they are crazy. business must be bad especially with a 2.9 star rating! Fix your attitude if you want to stay in business lady!

Look, to run a Chinese Restaurant in NYC requires only two conditions: fresh and tasty food. I ordered a large portion of chicken broccoli. The gravy and broccoli were fine - just like I had hoped. The chicken…….. already so past its expiration time it spoiled my entire evening. Sooooooo disappointing. If the food is not fresh, there is no need to stay in business.

K
Karl Fischler

Ill never order from them again. Ordered Sweet and sour pork. They sent the crusts with chicken inside instead of pork!!! whem I called to complain No apology just " we gave little chicken chicken good" I said I ordered Pork you cant just send chicken with out asking me first>> answer Chicken is good.. Bunch of crooks tried to get away with substituting chicken for pork in a dish when pieces are breaded and covered in sauce.. Avoid this Place,

Ordered food for the family, TWO egg rolls, broccoli WITH white rice and garlic sauce, FRIED vegetable dumplings, general so’s chicken, and pork friend rice. You would think it’s a simple order but I guess not for the people who work here. Took 3 HOURS for our food to be delivered and we are 3-4 blocks away from the place. When calling them they kept pushing 10 minutes, finally when it arrived we were missing both egg rolls, and the white rice but they did however throw in a soup, possibly mop watered down 🤔....Tried to call again and once I started talking they hung up. THE WORST CHINESE FOOD “RESTAURANT”. Literally go to any other place, the bill came to $64
