Kings Co Imperial exudes laid-back vibes with great people-watching and a fantastic bartender offering top-notch recommendations. The cocktails and food, including scallion pancakes, fried mushrooms, faux eel, eggplant, and mushroom noodles, hit the spot. Portions are small, allowing you to try a variety without breaking the bank. A must-visit spot for a memorable dining experience.

A group from my company took a dumpling making class with chef/owner Josh Grinker, and had an amazing time - they really appreciated his instruction, had a blast making the dumplings, and enjoyed a delicious meal afterwards. 10/10 recommend!

Service was very bad, and tip was mandatory for more than 4 people, which would’ve been okay if the server hadn’t forgotten to put in our food. We always go to the one in Williamsburg, first and last time at this location.

We attended a dumpling cooking class here and had a blast. Chef Josh & his team were phenomenal and showed us a great time. They made the entire process easy to follow, fun, and gave us plenty of help along the way. You are taught how to make different types of dumplings, given space to make them yourself with fresh ingredients, and then get to enjoy the dumplings along with some amazing dishes at the end. Wonderful experience!
Food was truly amazing, the interior/atmosphere felt awkward, I didn’t really like the seating set up.

Good! Tasty food, a lot of dishes (including traditional ones), good atmosphere, and pretty place! Only complaint is the expensiveness and how the serving size, advertised as family size, is not really family size.

Food was so delicious. Get the scallion pancakes to start, followed with the cucumbers and fried oyster mushrooms. The service was top notch and the atmosphere and ambiance was sophisticated. I did take notice that the entire guest average age was millennial 30-40s, looked like a few people were on their first or second dates. Overall a great time!
This was one of my favorite places but they no longer have what I always ordered. The szechuan oyster mushrooms and the Bruxo Mezcal ?For a vegetarian it was one of the few things I can get that I really liked.

I really loved the atmosphere of this place and the service was good. Our waiter was very sweet. The cocktails were a little too sweet for my liking and although some of the dishes were great (the dim sum we had was all fantastic) some of the standard dishes (broccoli and chicken rice) lacked flavor and weren’t worth the price of the dish. If I were to return I would probably stick to the dim sum.

Wow, this place is good. It has a very cozy, warm feel inside, it feels very New York City. Everything we ordered was delicious, the absolute must is the Wok Seared Long Dumplings. They are very large, so it might be tough for two people to share if you're looking to try a lot of different dishes here.My only con was that it was tough to get the waiter's attention at times during the meal.

Amazing place to eat. Not too expensive yet the food is really good and it's a great place to go out with friends either for dinner or to the bar.
