The Picanha is the best I've ever had in my life!! All the food (rice, beans and the barbecue) was so tasty and very well cooked. The service was very nice as well; the owner of the place is a very welcoming and friendly person. I will definitely return to try the breakfast!
I watched the fifa game and had some great food! Great service! Great meat!
Excellent fat picanha, (sirloin cap). Owner is always there and very friendly. Great place.

Imperial Picanha is an old-school Chinese restaurant that has garnered a reputation as a must-visit destination, largely due to its exceptional fried rice. The dining room has a respectable, Asian-inspired ambiance, with a separate bar area. The menu is extensive and diverse, offering combination plates available around the clock and many classic dishes in both small and large portions.
The Egg Rolls are a standout, featuring a crisp shell with an intriguing filling of chopped celery, carrots, pork crumbles, and a fragrant seasoning akin to five-spice. The Wontons are standard but well-executed, while the Spareribs are impressive, with juicy meat and a bright red glaze. The Chicken Wings boast a pleasing five-spice flavor and a crisp exterior with juicy interiors.
The Sweet and Sour Chicken, though a bit heavy on the oil and light on the chicken, features large, perfectly crisp nuggets and a thick, flavorful sauce. The Pork Fried Rice is slightly above average, with a pleasantly darker color, though it could use a bit more moisture and pork. The Lobster Sauce, on the other hand, is a standout, with a dark, smooth, and richly flavored sauce that clings beautifully to the rice.
The Moo Goo Gai Pan, a dish the reviewer hasn't had in decades, is described as subtly flavored but featuring high-quality, tender, and moist chicken. The service is excellent, the value is superb, and the parking is convenient.
Overall, Imperial Picanha is a reliable, old-school Chinese restaurant that offers a satisfying dining experience, with a focus on classic dishes executed well and a welcoming atmosphere.
