Since 2011, EMei has emerged as one of Philadelphia's premier dining destinations, celebrated for its authentic Chinese cuisine curated by Master Chef Zhao and a team of 6 wok chefs that born and trained in the Sichuan region of China.
Boasting over 50 years of expertise in mastering Sichuan cuisine, Chef Zhao skillfully infuses dishes with bold chili oils, aromatic peppercorns, and expertly seasoned cuts of fish, meat, and produce.
Situated conveniently in Chinatown, EMei diligently procures fresh ingredients daily. With a menu featuring 120 items, including house-made egg rolls and dumplings, we take pride in crafting everything in-house. This commitment not only ensures quality but also enables us to offer a wide selection of gluten-free and vegetarian options.

I had the Chongqing Spicy Chicken because I had a similar dish at Z&Y in San Francisco China Town. I was very disappointed with the EMei version. The flavor and spice level was on point, but the vast majority of the chicken pieces were so small they were or tasted like breading chunks. I tore open several and couldn’t find any meat. I was really disappointed because I brought 3 co- workers with me and touted this dish as something they should try and the other 2 who had this dish were as disappointed as I was. On the other hand, the one who ordered the tea smoked duck was the winner as I tried it and it was excellent.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re glad the flavor and spice were on point, but sorry the chicken pieces didn’t meet expectations. While our Chongqing Spicy Chicken has received many positive reviews, rest assured your feedback has been shared with our team to review areas for improvement. We’re happy to hear the tea-smoked duck was a hit—thank you for pointing that out. If you have any additional suggestions, feel free to reach out to us via email. We appreciate your support and look forward to having you try more of our dishes! Warm regards, EMei

We were here for our son’s college graduation last week. It was our first time and was the best food and service we’ve had in quite some time. Fatima took amazing care of all 13 of us and the manager was also amazing. The attention to my Wife and son’s gluten and dairy allergy was excellent. They were prompt, thorough, knowledgeable and the food was absolutely incredible. Thank y’all for making such a special milestone so much better.

Thank you so much for this heartfelt review! We're honored you chose EMei to celebrate such an important milestone. It’s wonderful to hear that Fatima and our team made your family feel cared for, especially with the dietary accommodations. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with everyone involved. Wishing your son all the best in his next chapter, and we hope to welcome you back again soon! Warm regards, EMei

Overpriced food. Alcohol horribly overcharged. I asked for a cocktail and they charged me twice once for the cocktail and once for the gin.
EMeiSe respondió el 29 de mayo de 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about any misunderstanding. We trust that after our manager’s phone call, you now have a clear explanation — that cocktails may have an additional charge if a specialty liquor is requested. Thank you for your understanding. We value your input and will remind our staff to be more proactive in communicating this. Thank you again for visiting, and we look forward to serving you again! Warm regards, EMei

Everything we ate (all vegetarian) was incredibly delicious. I’d jump at the opportunity to eat there again. The wait staff was helpful & attentive. My only negative comment is the unbelievable loudness of the place—not great for people who are noise sensitive or have hearing issues (me), but the food was so good i’d come back at the first chance
