I've lived in Chicago for over 70 years. The last time we visited Chinatown was over 10 years ago. We decided to check out Emperor"s choice restaurant on Wentworth/Cermak. The best decision ever. Hank was a awesome waitperson! He even brought out 5 different noodles for me to pick out the one I wanted. From drinks, appetizers, and main entrees, everything was delicious and worth the price which was quite reasonable. We'll be back!
Was a great time with friends…the food was great and the service was awesome 👍👍
If its empty, its because they serve you quick
This restaurant was so DEVINE! We were seated quick, got waters no less than 5 minutes after we sat down. (Which is huge for me because I’ve been to restaurants where they never give you water). The waitress and other staff members were constantly checking up on us. It was phenomenal.
The apps came out 10 minutes after we sat down and the food came out shortly after that. The food was so yummy and the egg rolls!!!!...read full review

Emperor's Choice is the best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, celebrated for its cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The restaurant offers a variety of delicious dishes, including shumai, fish in black bean sauce, the spicy emperor's chicken, and the must-try generals chicken. It is also praised for its extensive menu, featuring options like sesame beef, sweet and sour chicken, crispy pekin duck, and chicken straps with fries for those who may not want Chinese cuisine. Families appreciate the kid-friendly environment and large portion sizes, making it easy to share meals. Although the dining area is on the smallish side and can get a bit crowded, the food is so good that many would sit anywhere to enjoy it. The restaurant is not wheelchair accessible, but it remains a must-try for anyone seeking authentic and affordable Chinese food. Emperor's Choice can get busy during peak hours, but the staff always treats guests with patience and care, ensuring a great dining experience. Customers often mention the freshness and homemade quality of the food, making it a go-to spot for many.
