    We arrived early expecting to wait, however, we were sat immediately. Atmosphere was lovely, but not too loud. We were served warm, fresh bread shortly after our seating. Our server was very pleasant and attentive throughout our meal. We both ordered the petite filet and they were outstanding! Cooked well, tender and tasty. My granddaughter order the mac and cheese as her side, which was wonderful. My baked potato was a bit dry and over cooked, but it wasn’t a deal breaker. I had forgotten that I noted on my reservation that we would be celebrating a birthday so we were pleasantly surprised when a piece of cheesecake with lit candle showed up. Overall, I was very happy with our experience and will gladly return on our next trip to NYC.

    Two things stood out. 1st they don’t have a full service bar. So no alcohol. Just wine and beer. Kind of odd for a steakhouse, 2nd their wine list has almost no New Zealand whites. That is I believe intentional but not sure why. You can’t beat NZ whites with consistent quality wines.

    Excellent food and service! Highly recommend dinner here while in Times Square. Of course, it’s a steakhouse and it happens to be in NY Times Square so it’s definitely not cheap. But it’s well worth it!

    Food is superb and staff is so attentive. We opted to get the Broadway show prefix menu and it was excellent. It was a great value and everything was so delicious. This was our second time at Empire and we intend to return next time we are in the city.

    My second time here and I enjoyed just as much as the first time. The most succulent and tender steak that I have had to date. Most definitely recommend to all I know.

    Very friendly service and excellent food. I highly recommend going here if you are eating before seeing a show. They have a pre theater menu and a wonderful wine list.

    The restaurant is a steakhouse, and the steak was AMAZING! The scrimp, broccoli, and sauces had absolutely no seasoning. Rendering those items inedible. The waiter's customer service was fair, yet he was not very attentive. I struggled to get his attention on a few occasions. Our baked potatoes came out about 5 minutes after the main dishes. Due to the lack of seasoning, I requested bernaise sauce. The bernaise took over 10 minutes to get to the table. I then requested the sauce and remaining food be packed to go. Again, the steak was AMAZING! If you want an AMAZING steak, I recommend Empire but bring your own sides.
