About Empire

Empire is a Chinese restaurant located at 17817 Union Tpke, Flushing, NY 11366, USA. They can be contacted at (718) 657-3429 or +1 718-657-3429. Based on a customer's observation, it appears that photos associated with Empire online might actually be from a neighboring Thai restaurant, which could also explain some of the reviews.

One long-time customer noted a change in management and expressed disappointment with a recent lunch special of shrimp and broccoli. Priced at $8 including a soda, the portion was smaller, and the dish had a smell of uncooked shrimp with an unfamiliar sauce, differing from the usual brown sauce. This customer felt disappointed, especially due to their hunger.

In contrast, another reviewer found the Chinese food to be good tasting, with their children particularly enjoying the sesame chicken, lo mein, and rice. However, this reviewer deducted a star due to the restaurant's policy of not providing utensils unless specifically requested, which they perceived as being "cheap."

For local users considering Empire for Chinese takeout or delivery, it's important to note the mixed feedback regarding food quality consistency, portion sizes for lunch specials, and the provision of utensils. Additionally, there is a mention of potentially misleading online photos.

I see photos that are actually from the Thai place next door. Could explain some of the reviews as well. Have been going to this local Chinese take out corner store for many years as management changed. Paying $8 for a lunch special of shrimp and broccoli with a soda only, smaller portion and the smell of uncooked shrimp with an unfamiliar sauce (not the routine delicious brown sauce that you usually see with the broccoli and rice orders). Was just disappointed and sad as I was very hungry for lunch that day.

Good tasting Chinese food. My kids love the sesame chicken, lo mein and the rice. 1 less star because you guys are cheap on utensils. They give no utensils unless you ask for them

Food was definitely not the best, got the chicken and broccoli in garlic sauce, the chicken and broccoli did not taste fresh and was covered in a sauce that was way too sweet to be considered chinese food. The restaurant is take out only, but honestly the price just is too high for what you are getting. Paid 13.25 for a soda, some slices of chicken and half a head of broccoli covered in sweet teriyaki sauce.

If I could have given this place a minus review I would have. My coworkers came there for lunch and I ordered chicken wings with fries to stay. I received chicken with plain fried rice. I went to tell him that he made a mistake & he started arguing with me & said that is what I ordered. I just said forget it. I started to eat it & the rice was burnt . I could not catch a break. Then my coworkers ordered & it was also wrong. To top it off it was very expensive! Plus place had a lot of mosquitoes. I should have gone to Nikko. Much healthier & less expensive. So don’t waste your $
