The drinks left a lot to be desired and I was a bit disappointed on the service given it was a slow time of day.

We had to wait 30 mins to be seated. But it was a Saturday night and we were acknowledged. We ordered the Rangoon and the house rice. Everything was delicious and the drinks were good!

It was good to be back at Empire after Covid hell (one of our Boston favorite restaurants)! The new menu didn’t disappoint. The food impeccable as always and our service David, was absolutely over-the-top! Try the chicken dumplings the spicy Korean chicken and the blue fin sashimi. For drinks try the apricot martini or the mai tai… They truly are not to be missed.

Dinner date with the wife was decent. Ambience and feel was great, but food & drinks were very average. Hype is all in the name. Can see us going back for drinks & snacks, but not dinner.

Sushi was pretty good and we got a decent amount for the price. The martinis we got were both excellent and service was great! Our waitress was very attentive and always made sure we had what we needed. We got the Buffalo cauliflower special to start and I got the red dragon roll which was a little too spicy for me but still good!
