Food was done just right. The service was great. The vibe could be better. However, it was kind of rainy and a little cold out. I'm going to go back once the weather truly breaks. The vibe may be different..

One of our places in Naperville for lunch, cocktails especially when it's warm enough for the patio or rooftop bar. Great atmosphere and have always had good service.

First time, just happened to be in the area. Pretty large spirit selection, prices range some only available in 1.25 oz pours. Had the Empire tot appetizer and the poutine both were good the tots must have been made in house don't expect O'Rita.

Such a great space. Very friendly staff. Nice cold beer. Really good veg burgers (2 choices), but could really use some more vegan friendly options, especially in appetizers. Please get Buffalo Cauliflower! Everybody loves that!

Great burger. Showed up at 6 on a Friday and got a table for 2 very quickly. The music is way too loud but I'm old.
Excellent service, the food is very tasty and good quality, the views they have are very pleasant and beautiful

Wife’s drink came after our dinner arrived. Service slow and impersonal, there were gnats flying around our table and others the whole meal, server disinterested. Asked if we could order a side for an appetizer, told no which is bonkers. Rooftop is cool, but dinner downstairs fell far short.

I hate to be overly critical, but with places like this popping up more and more, you really need to bring something extra to the table to stand out. That said, I feel Empire was just ok. The food we got was good, no complaints. Nothing blew us away. The beer selection was lacking compared to competing places. The food menu was even more scarce. Not much to choose from at all. Overall not bad, but cant compete with the better places that do the same thing.

This is American food at its finest lol Try the Cigar Burgers, they are burger egg rolls! So good I forgot to get a picture. Seating in the indoor rooftop bar is great. You can still hear the live music from the first level but it's not as loud. Great hand crafted drinks. The staff is always so pleasant and helpful. Valet parking is $10, otherwise a short walk but parking can get interesting. It's downtown Naperville tho, that's normal.

Good food and drink menu! I'll be back in the summer since they have a rooftop bar overlooking the river. Perfect spot for live music or to enjoy the summer breeze. Great alcohol list. I was really impressed with the cider I had (Shacksberry Sugar Shack is my new fav)
Dino and Dexter were the best bouncer
