"The semi-private Empress Room is as decadent as the rest of this Las Vegas-y Chinese restaurant. The opulent dining room is filled with carved wooden doors, lattices, and blue accents everywhere, and offers both Chinatown and Coit Tower views. A seasonal tasting menu of dishes like jasmin-smoked short ribs, scallop and caviar rolls, and shrimp dumplings also ensure your path to event hosting success. The room fits 14-20, depending on the set-up. There’s also the larger Yan Yan room with a capacity of 48 people, and a full buyout option for up to 225." - lani conway, julia chen 1
