    The atmosphere was great and the food was delicious. We hadn’t been to the restaurant in 20 years, but it was still outstanding.

    The food was not edible, obviously new owners. They put yellow mustard and a spicey like barbeque sauce on the table instead of Chinese Mustard and Sweet and Sour sauce. We could not even eat the food , it was so horrible. We paid , left and went to another restaurant. It was the worst dining experience I have ever had !!!

    It's amazing that Imperial has maintained its high quality over so many years. We moved out to the burbs and forgot about it. So glad we remembered and went back there! It was excellent. The sesame chicken tastes the exact same as it always did. So many other restaurants ruin it with heavy breading and too sweet sauce. The mu shu was also exceptional. We will be back!
