    Sweet & Sour Chicken
    Tanesha Y.

    I took a chance and tried this place. I've never been able to find a good Chinese place that is similar or better than my hometown favorite place "China Star". Went here from a tiktok video and let's just say the plate I had was soooo good! They were super packed but it only took about 10minutes for my order. Staff was super friendly and they text you once your order is ready! I had the sweet and sour chicken plate, the egg roll was massive, it had all three meats (shrimp, chicken and pork. Rice didn't need any soy sauce! This is what I call good rice! Chicken sooo Crispy and a lot, two large fried chicken breasts, enough for 2. Will definitely be back to try the mandarin chicken.

    Sweet and sour chicken dinner combo.  A true disappointment :(

    Sophia and I decided to order dinner takeout from here during our trip here in Louisiana. The last time we ordered, both of us were disappointed with our selections. Unfortunately, this night wasn't much better. We called in our takeout orders which went off without any problems. Picking them up was seamless as well with the staff being courteous while dealing with other customers and setting up takeout orders nicely. My order for the evening was a dinner combo plate of sweet and sour chicken with fried rice and an egg roll (sweet and sour sauce on the side). It was a disappointment. The chiicken was good once dipped in the sauce which had a kick to it, but the rice was bland and the egg roll was soggy. I'm not sure if it was moisture caused by the foam container. I'm pretty sure they used to have the egg rolls packaged separately where they would be well kept, but it was a major letdown. Sophia had the same reaction with her selection and couldn't finish either. Any hope for a redemption was totally lost that evening. Needless to say, we won't be ordering here the next time we come home :(

    I ordered the lunch beef and broccoli and a hot and sour soup. Both were good. Not the best I've ever had but definitely not the worst. They compensate by providing very large portions so now I have lunch for another day as well. The lunch combo was around $15 with white rice and a side of Cho Cho which is their take on friend dumplings. It had shrimp, pork, and a few small green onions inside with a tangly light sauce. The beef was very tender and the broccoli was fresh and still had a nice crunch to it. It's work a stop if you're in that area. The to go service was polite and efficient. And the inside gives very much American Chinese food decor. Dark and dandy dining room with Michael Jackson playing on the radio. Over all I paid $25 including a tip. For two days worth of food-it's a win.

    The restaurant was clean. Service was good. All the food was good. The combination rice was delicious. The egg rolls was big. Cho Cho delicious

    I called in an order for fried boneless chicken w/veggie, fried rice and egg roll for lunch. When I arrived 20 mins later my order was ready. The food was hot and tasty.

    I ordered shrimp fried rice from China Doll and to say I was disappointed is an understatement. It was very bland and not at all what I remember or expected. They shouldn't have sent this out of the kitchen. A total waste of my money. Also, where is the shrimp? I promise I only ate like 3.

    The food has fell off a little bit but its still pretty decent with huge portions. The service is okay. My go to is the sweet & sour shrimp (sauce on the side), double rice, and an order of cho chos. Love that the lunch specials are until 4pm.

    Writing this review post nap because woosh. I heard about this place from a coworker so while on this side we decided to try it out. First, it was packed in there but we received service promptly. The waiter was really nice when he arrived. Off to the food! O.m.g. I am a firm believer in another spot in Nola but this place is just as great. We got the dark meat boneless chicken with vegetables and the sweet and sour chicken. The batter and the cook of the chicken straight perfection. The rice top tier as well. Only thing I wasn't a fan of was hubs sweet and sour sauce. Good came out fast and hot. I'm getting hungry again just thinking about it. If near the area this is a must try. All the pics and two drinks at lunch came out to 30 bucks pre tip.

    I love coming here for lunch or grab a Go To goodies to bring home to enjoy while watching Netflix…read more My favorite here are the Cho-Chos and Pepper Steak. My last visit I ordered dinner for the family and we all shared the dishes. Everything taste fresh and every bite had my tongue dancing with flavor.

    I remember when this place used to be called Christine's Empress of China. I believe Christine was…read morethe owner back then, and now it's simply Empress of China. The name may have shortened, but the experience is still just as memorable. From the outside, you're not really sure what you're about to walk into. You get a hint of the Asian aesthetic, but you don't realize how immersive it's going to feel. Then you open the door. Right at the entrance is a koi fish pond with a small bridge over it. No, you can't walk across the bridge, but the koi are real, and you walk right by them on your way to the dining room. It immediately sets the tone. The dining room itself feels like you've stepped straight into China. The decor, the lighting, the details, everything transports you. It matches the cuisine and elevates the entire dining experience. The waitresses are incredibly sweet, respectful, patient, and kind. They answered all of my questions about the menu without hesitation and made sure we felt comfortable. The service feels authentic and attentive without being rushed. I ordered the boneless chicken with vegetables, fried rice, and egg rolls. The homemade egg rolls are always my favorite. You can absolutely tell they're hand rolled and not pulled from a freezer. The boneless chicken is made with hand cut chicken breast, and the batter is soft and flaky. It almost melts in your mouth. Everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The portion sizes are generous. It's definitely a eat now, eat later, and maybe even share with a friend kind of place. If you've only ever ordered takeout from here, you are missing half the experience. Sit down inside and take it all in. It's one thing to eat Chinese food. It's another thing to feel like you've been transported while doing it. This place leaves an impression.

The waiter came and took our order and the food came out quickly. There's a lunch special between 1-4pm, so we opted to try the beef cubes, fried chicken, fish, and kung pao chicken. It also comes with a gigantic egg roll filled with meat and veggies, a bowl of egg drop soup, and fried rice. It's a huge dish for a lunch special plate.

It took a while for our servers to find us and when our orders were put in it took over an hour to deliver two dishes. We had to remind them and ask them multiple times when our meal would come. We were met with the response that the large event would take priority over our meals. This wasn't my fav response because it just seemed that if you have an event going on, there would be other staff to take care of their food. The wait time was really disappointing. The black pepper tofu was quite good and the lemongrass tofu was decent but would prob not get it again.
