Zero seasoning on the burger. Otherwise a perfectly fine local greasy spoon. I recommend the owner consider sprinkling some steak seasoning or at least a little salt & pepper on their burgers, very bland tasting. Beef is meant to be seasoned!!
Best pizza around the area. If we were closer to empire we would order from their regularly. Service was excellent lots of local brands their, like local rootbeer which was amazing, nice and creamy. Definitely a go to.Parking: Great parking, close to building whether handicapped or not.Kid-friendliness: Would be a great place to take the kids or have a family night out. Pinball machines, pool table general store.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible

Awesome homemade Pizza!!!! Crust was amazing!!! Service was totally insane. I didn't have to ask for anything...the waitress seemed to read my mind???? Impeccable!!!
Awesome pizzas, great gyros -- spicy chicken pita wrap is AMAZING. Overall the food is great! Even the salads are pretty inspired as well as being fresh and green. Portions are good, and the service is friendly and quick. If you're staying in Empire or just coming through you can't go wrong here even if you and your SO are in the mood for different things!

Stopped by here for a bite to eat around 7 pm. They were fairly busy as the dining option are very limited in Empire. Decided to have a 12 inch pizza which was pricey for just mushrooms ($20). Getting it to go so the wait was only about 20 minutes. I have to say the pizza was awesome. Giving this a lower rating as the man behind the counter was a bit rude and snippy.

This restaurant was a mixed bag. Prices for salads were very high. I ordered a salmon sandwich and it exceeded my expectations...wonderful! Now for the bad news. Minor, but I guess I'm old now..I asked specifically if they had regular fries..no coating or weird seasoning. Oh yes, she said they did. Well, they didn't. It's almost impossible to get regular fries now. Sleder's has them BTW. Part 2, my husband's Philly cheese steak sandwich. It was horrible. Greasy, and the beer cheese on it was not a good fit. He ate 4 bites total. $50+ for a dinner that was a big disappointment. Part 3, I don't like to give unsatisfactory reviews without bringing it to the attention of the establishment, so I sent a message through Facebook and didn't get a response. So....just be aware that was NOT a regular Philly cheese steak sandwich. Honestly, I'm sorry we didn't say anything at the time, but the more we thought about it, the more disgusted we were. Seriously, my husband eats way more things than I do, and he said he wouldn't feed that to a dog. Thank goodness we went to Sleder's the next night, and it was excellent.

Tasty pizza, thicker crust than average. Great with the garlic parmesan crust topping they offer. Mozzarella bread sticks were also a win. Quick service for the area.

Absolutely amazing pizza....and the gluten free crusts were soooo good. My hubby had the Greateful Veg and I had the Shroom Mama....even cold left over the next day somehow it got better! Do yourself a favor and go try this place? It's about 20 bucks plus per pie....but oh so good!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust!
Love my local bar! Great people!
