Empire Chinese Kitchen Reviews
Absolutely amazing food! Everything came out at different times, which I know can seem stressful, but trust the process! Waiting an hour and ten minutes, but so glad I waiting. Couldn’t ask for better food all around. Our server Al was personable and professional, a total pro at his craft. Can’t wait to come back again!
Love Empire! Always fantastic!
Hands down the best place we have tried in a long time! The bacon fried rice was drool
Worthy. The gluten free pork dumplings were so tasty and the SA Cha chicken skewers were so tender and juicy. My husband and son LOVED the chicken bao buns. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be back!

Empire Chinese Kitchen offers an exceptional dining experience with outstanding service. The restaurant excels in accommodating dietary restrictions, particularly gluten-free options like gluten-free dumplings. The menu features a wide variety of dishes, including soup dumplings, fried noodles, rice, eggplant, green beans, and bao, all made with fresh ingredients. Standout dishes include the orange beef, garlic green beans, pork belly buns, and eggplant. The garlic green beans are especially praised for their burnt parts and smoky flavor, while the duck lo mein is recommended with chili oil for added taste. The tofu buns and chive shiitake dumplings are also highly regarded for their unique and delicious flavors. Although parking can be challenging in Portland, the restaurant has plenty of tables, so there is no need to worry about seating. The generous portions and great prices make Empire Chinese Kitchen a highly recommended destination for a memorable meal. The interior is clean, if not fancy, and the service is quick, polite, and friendly. Despite occasional wait times, the fresh food and authentic flavors make it worth visiting again.
