Empire Dynasty

Drove 40 minutes for this place to try some authentic Chinese cuisine Another good authentic Chinese szachwan Chinese restaurant We ordered spicy pig feet in dry pot It was delicious. Could a little softer Next, we got the Chinese broccoli It was great lightly cooking, still crunchy, not overcooked, Next, we ordered sautéed vermicelli with spicy minced pork ,tastes great also not to sweet or salty. Next up was the global steam pork A touch of sweet but not too overpowering A hint of tea leaves cooked soft We also ordered mapo tufo It's a little spicy, oily soft tofu dish The last items we ordered were the Steam chicken in chill oil It was great, too They also offer American Chinese food If you're not interested or not used to real authentic Chinese szachwan dishes Everything was good. Fresh delicious food No complaints from me Szachwan Chinese dishes can be strong if u ordered spicy it because off the szachwan peppers corn It's strong, numb your taste buds if eaten too much Give this place a try if you're a fan of real authentic Chinese cuisine Definitely will be back if we're in the area

I had a wonderful dining experience at this Chinese restaurant! The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. I’ll definitely be coming back!

As a student in Ann Arbor, this was my first time trying this restaurant—and honestly, it was the best Chinese food I’ve ever had. The flavors were bold and authentic, especially the spicy stir-fried frog legs and the sour vegetable fish soup. Every dish was full of aroma, spice, and warmth. Definitely coming back again—highly recommend to anyone craving real Chinese cuisine!

When you serve two different menus: regular and traditional…you know food is about to be fire. Atmosphere was awesome and relaxing. I got the chop suey…delicious. My son got orange chicken…mouth watering. Literally one of the best spots for non-traditional AND traditional Chinese.

Food and service was amazing. I tried the orange chicken with hot and sour soup- which was very good n fresh. The soup was my favorite part very savory. Sesame bean dessert was amazing! Overall I had amazing time and can’t wait to try more great food

This place is legit authentic Chinese food. The eggplant dish was great. Also had some sort of chicken and a delicious spicy soup. I'm not sure what i ate. I just know it was yummy.

The food is great here at this place. The service is excellent. We ordered a spicy fish hit pot dish. Because the fish is a bit small, they gave us two fish instead. Highly recommend anyone nearby to give it a shot.

First time here, and it was a really good experience. The traditional regional dishes are delicious and more so the service was great. Our server explained things well and was helpful in taking questions. The flavors are great, I highly recommend the wood ear appetizer and the shredded pork, and the whole fish in black bean sauce if you like spicy food. Will return to try the dry pot dishes.

This dry as hell, reheated pile of junk for $58.95? No response from the waiting staff after complaining that this is not edible food. Never coming back again.

I'm sorry how much is your general chicken entree? And when I came back saying I didn't get rice, you charged me another how much for a quart of rice? Of course I paid the $8 for rice. I had no other choice. I thought it came with it. A dinner entree as just the course without any sides. Lo mein noodles are practically boiled egg noodles and thrown in a wok a few times with some basic soy sauce. Maybe I ordered from the wrong menu. I mean it was the ABC menu (American Born Chinese) where it was Americanized. (I can say this candidly as a Chinese person who has also worked in her own family business before my parents retired). The prices here are ridiculous for the amount of food they give you. The next time I had a craving for breaded Chinese chicken, I went to trader Joes and got the orange chicken mix for $5 and fed my entire family. If I want some basic Chinese next time I'll just hit up Panda express that has the same style of lo mein, but the food actually has flavor.

The crab Rangoon was very good. The General Taos chicken was soggy. Not good. The chicken was good but the coating fell off. I would not recommend based on this experience. My first time ordering here.

Empire Dynasty offers a solid experience for fans of Chinese cuisine. Their egg foo young is a standout, perfectly fluffy and rich in flavor. The sesame chicken is also commendable, with a crisp exterior and savory-sweet sauce that hits all the right notes. For those preferring a vegetarian option, the ginger veggie dishes are both fresh and flavorful, showcasing a thoughtful balance of ingredients and seasoning. Additionally, their carry-out service is efficient and reliable, making it a great choice for enjoying quality Chinese food at home. Overall, Empire Dynasty delivers consistently good dishes and is a dependable option for both dine-in and take-out! Five stars all day

Updating to a 5/5. 1) Dine in is truly a different experience than takeout/ delivery. The presentation of the dishes and quality is just better. For example, for the chicken dish it was in a hot pot which was nice. 2) Truly a "chinese" feel inside. Spinning tables. Majority Chinese customers. Rolling carts. Employees bringing out massive amounts of food for themselves at closing time (lol, this is very typical of Chinese restaurants). Very accommodating for large group of friends. 3) Came with group and ordered: Steamed Pork Belly/梅菜扣肉 Mouth-watering chicken (Kou Shui Ji, 口水鸡) La Zi Ji (Sichuan Mala Chicken, 辣子鸡) Suan Cai Yu (酸菜鱼, Sichuan Fish with Pickled Mustard Greens) that chicken dish in the picture (ye men ji? unsure name) Sichuan Eggplant Stir Fry (Yú Xiāng Eggplant, 鱼香茄子) All were authentic. All arrived relatively quickly. All were not too greasy/oily. All were not too salty All had good flavor. I stand by that if you want authentic Szechuan, this is a top contender in Michigan. If you are willing to pay $15-20ish per dish, you won't regret it. and dine in.

Food: Authentic Chinese food. 疙瘩汤 Sandong seafood soup tastes very traditional and huge in portion. Ordered it as a non spicy option for my kid and he loved it. Good variety inside including shrimp and egg. The chicken appetizer 口水鸡 is mediocre. Good taste and good portion size, chicken is a mixture of some tender some dry. Whole fish 豆瓣全鱼 tastes amazing, just kinda small consider that it's ~$30. Was told it's an alive fish to begin with though, so maybe the price is justified? Spicier than I expected, but great flavor and savory for sure. Kidney 火爆腰花 is pretty good. Nice flavoring and definitely has a kick to it. Also has a good variety of veges. Price: moderate to high. Total is $80+ before tip (that's 1 appetizer, 1 soup, 2 entrees, rice is $1 per bowl) Ambiance: Nice, clean, very busy Service: Hit or miss. Everyone there are super friendly, especially the owner! They are just incredibly busy sometimes, we never got our water before food, for example Overall excellent food and traditional Shandong style. You don't see many Shandong style restaurant in the Midwest.

I went with my two coworkers (Native Chinese) and the Food was AMAZING! They were so impressed as well- everything was fresh and very tasty. The garlic green beans are a must!!! Perfectly made and so flavorful! Not pictured is the beef with scallions dish- which was also delicious! They also have a wide variety in their menu, per my coworkers it includes most of the different regions of Chinese cuisine. Apart from their traditional menu they have a more Americanized one too, which is perfect and still just as authentic and delicious. 100% recommend this place- we will be coming back in this trip. Service was great too- very happy with this place overall

Very authentic! The same taste as when I visited China. The owner of the restaurant is also super welcoming and friendly!

The food at empire dynasty is always fantastic. Probably the best Chinese food in Michigan that resembles Shandong. Great service as well. Highly recommended!

This is one of the best Chinese food I ever had. It was so unique and flavorful and I feel like I have never had something like it. We had tried aged duck egg eggplant dish which was amazing. It had cilantro and went really well with the dish. It also came in a really interesting plate and had to smash it together to allow all the ingredients to come together. Also we got the fried fish with sweet and sour sauce which was also amazing. It was really chewy and also really tender. The service was amazing and the owner of the restaurant was really caring and nice.

I REALLY enjoyed myself. The restaurant was clean, the food was awesome and the service was prompt. I must say I was hesitant to dine in (as a black man who OFTEN receives unsatisfactory service when I dine at a suburban restaurant in Michigan), however, I was pleasantly surprised and would highly recommended this place.

Definitely a hidden gem of a place. My friend said i's always a good sign when all the people coming in are asian because they know where the best food is! The only thing they could improve upon is being greeted right away, it seemed as though multiple people were coming in standing around. Definitely top 5 asian/chinese places to go for me. Loved the soup and almond chicken!

My auntie ramped and raved about this place. Mainly because of childhood memories. The soup was warm. I like steaming hot soup. The sauce was very bland for the Szechuan chicken. The picture shows whole chili peppers in the dish, there was only flakes in it. That was also warm(temperature). The spring roll was cold. Only thing that came out hot was the tea. I can see this is a favorite for the oriental ethnicity. There were tables full of families. On the weekends dinner starts at 3pm not 4pm. I did not enjoy the food, mainly because nothing was hot. They give you plenty of rice but an ok portion of the dish. More rice than food. I don't have to return unfortunately.

10-18-2023 We got take out but have come here ALOT bc my 95 year old mom likes it. The food is pretty good, but sometimes doesn't taste fresh. Dine-in is preferential and use the Chinese menu. Our favorites are the green beans, the bok choy and the steamed fish. Service is usually fast and friendly.

It was my first time trying the restaurant. The inside was well lit and clean. It had some Chinese decorations. Service was quick. The waiter was friendly and quick in taking orders and serving food. The food was delicious. My favorite was the Mapo tofu, beef cumin and shredded pork. The price was okay with the average size of food. Food tasted delicious and authentic Chinese food Beef cumin 孜然牛 Mapo spicy tofu 麻婆豆腐 Shredded pork with sauce 鱼香肉丝 Zhajiang noodle 炸酱面 Orange chicken 橙汁鸡 Stir fried green beans 干煸四季豆 Empire Dynasty Chinese Fine Dining 29505 W Nine Mile Rd, #farmingtonhills ,MI 48336

Went for dinner on a Sunday evening an hour and half before closing. Food was mediocre and service was non existent. Had to get our own to go boxes from a side table because we were ignored by the wait staff.

This is a pretty good place. Probably the best Chinese food that I've found in Michigan so far. Worth trying!

I ordered delivery, so I can't speak to the service or ambiance. The food though.... WOW! I always get nervous when a see a review under 4 stars, but I always read the reviews because you never know what puts some people off. It seemed like most people who ordered off the authentic Chinese menu loved their food, so I did that too. We got the garlic ginger eggplant, grandmas pork, and sesame balls. I'm very picky about pork and I had no idea what grandmas pork would be, but I think it's universally accepted that grandmas recipe is always the best so I wanted to try it. Everything was GREAT! I'm just some white lady lol so I don't know how much weight my opinion has for authentic Chinese, but I think this is my new go-to for authentic Chinese food it's way closer to my house than my other favorites and I love that I can order it with delivery apps when I can't get out of the house! Will very likely dine in soon!

Best service authentic great service great food the total package,!, 4 stars very reasonable

I have kind of given up on Yelp but I feel like this was worth writing a review for. The last time I ate here a few years ago it was fantastic. I had some sort of Szechuan squid dish that was great and had my mouth absolutely buzzing with both regular and Szechuan chili pepper flavor. I noticed they were on Uber eats and was really in the mood for something more authentic then the usual Chinese food. Everything I ordered was pretty awful. The Szechuan chicken was bone in chopped chicken which I am OK with. But each piece had small bone fragments in the meat. No matter how careful or how small a bite I tried to take I got a rock hard inedible bone fragment. After I piled up a third of the entree as a mound of barely eaten chicken pieces I gave up. It was very oily and had just the faintest hint of Szechuan peppers too which was the final nail in the coffin. The pork with hot peppers was just an oily pile of pork and green bell peppers. No heat or flavor at all remotely. Scallion pancake was a super greasy mess with barely any scallions in the entire thing and certainly no scallion flavor. The pan dumplings were not even that good. The universal frozen dumplings most places serve are actually better than this. The sauce for the dumplings and scallion was so watery I resorted to drinking it out of the container as dipping it was pretty much flavor less. I have been extremely reluctant to leave bad reviews at places due to the whole Covid thing. But the food is just getting so crap and I paid 60 bucks for this. I have not worked for 2 years and this was a birthday treat to myself and I might as well have lit my money on fire. 17 buck entrees should not suck. They should be amazing. This seems to mirror the trend of the food just getting awful in SE MI. Or at least the West side burbs.

This is one of my families favorite Chinese restaurants hands down. The restaurant atmosphere is open and the food is always flavorful. I am glad that the restaurant is open for dine in service again.

Great food and attentive service. First time having sake. They even take reservations. Will definitely return.

The food was average, the service was slow, and the prices were higher than "neighborhood" Chinese restaurants. They definitely use less salt than neighborhood restaurants. That's a GOOD thing. The food simply wasn't impressive. (My first experience was vegetable egg foo yung. My second was sweet and sour chicken.) I honestly believe they are trying to build an ambiance infused dine-in experience that neighborhood restaurants don't want. Therefore, the slow service was not a criticism if they are taking their time to prepare, season, and cook the food as ordered, instead breaking open some prepped packaged food and throwing it in a pan. There was something more impressive than neighborhood restaurants, though. They call themselves Americanized Chinese food. I like that they aren't trying to fake some kind of authentic Chinese cuisine experience. The other thing, which made me try them twice, was that I saw mostly Asian people dining in and getting carry out. I do NOT trust cultural cuisine restaurants where people of that culture don't dine there. So, is it worth a try? Definitely. Not impressive isn't bad if "Americanized Chinese" food isn't your favorite cuisine. Besides, I believe most people choose the neighborhood Chinese food because it's cheap, fast, and has large portions.

Food safety issue, rotten fish cause illness. I wanted to treat my mom a nice authentic Chinese lunch before she flying out from Detroit airport to China. The waiter recommended the $34.95 steamed fish head to us. When served, the fish head was covered by a lot of seasonings. We felt the fish head tasted funky so I express my concern to the waiter since we really afraid of getting ill on an international flight. The waiter claimed that the funky taste was from the seasoning not the fish. We end up eating half of the fish. Both mom and I had food poisoning symptoms afterwards, including vomiting and diarrhea. 送我妈从底特律直飞上海前慕名去了这家餐厅。侍应生听说我们回国隔离前想吃顿好吃中餐重点推荐了$34.95 的剁椒鱼头。鱼头调料多味道不错，吃到鱼肚子里面没调料的地方明显觉得有臭鱼味。和店家沟通说是调料味。鱼头吃一半没敢再吃了。当天下午开始我和我妈都有食物中毒现象。拉肚子，呕吐。店家对食物安全的不负责为我们带来了很多麻烦和担心。

This place is utterly disgusting. I ordered a carry out of Egg Drop soup, Spring Roll, and Almond Chicken. The soup had no taste. The spring roll was so greasy the napkin I put it on was saturated with grease. The chicken was so overcooked it was hard as a rock. I ended up throwing the whole thing out. This place was disgusting.

On June 19th, a Monday, I ordered over $60 for take out and only received food that wasn't suppose to be in my bag. I ordered and paid on their website. I was suppose to get a traditional Chinese dish that is spicy, instead I got either Mongolian beef or beef with onions. I do not live in the área and they are closed on Tuesdays so I called in Wednesday and explained the situation and the server was on the phone was very nice and apologized and told me the owner will contact me regarding to the issue and will either zelle or Venmo me the money back. I waited for two weeks, never received any calls. I called again two weeks after the initial call, and still, same the server said the owner will contact me. And here I am, almost a months and half later writing this review, because of their poor customer service follow ups.

I have never left a restaurant review before, but my experience at Empire Dynasty was so exceptionally bad (including a plate shard in my food - details below) that I decided to say something. 1. When we entered the restaurant, they asked how many people we were but never asked for a name. They said the wait would be about 10 minutes. About 30 minutes later, another party walked in and soon realized that the woman at the counter was not calling people based on who arrived first, but rather who was sitting directly in front of her. They proceeded to sit in front of her and were promptly called. When we pointed out to her that we had been waiting longer, she angrily denied it, argued with us, and in general had a bad attitude about the situation. 2. Once we were finally seated and received our food, I bit (and was fortunate not to swallow) a large shard of a porcelain plate hidden in my mashed pepper and century egg dish (pictures attached - note that it was bigger before I broke it while biting it, which left my teeth sore afterwards). When I brought it to their attention, they apologized and offered me a sesame ball. I rejected the sesame ball. 3. The food itself was mediocre at best (source: I lived in China for 4 years) and my wife and I have had bad stomachs all night after eating it. Conclusion: DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go to Empire Dynasty. There are plenty of other Chinese restaurants in the area where you will have good service and not find plate shards in your food.

Yum! We knew it was going to be good by the amount of people that were in the parking lot on a Saturday night. The service was excellent and the food was hot, fresh and flavorful. We will soon return. We ordered won ton and hot and sour, both good with fresh veggies. All of us ordered dinner combos; I got the house specialty; Empire Dynasty. Shrimp, scallops, beef, chicken and crab. The shrimp were big and tasty. Imitation crabmeat, but good texture. Yummy brown sauce that is not overly greasy. The General Tso's was good with a very pretty sauce, but wasn't spicy. I can't wait to try more!

Yeah you will wait but the quality is really great and the taste is amazing! So I would recommend ordering ahead and just enjoy!

Nice environment , quiet and clean . Authentic Chinese food with many choices . Perfect place for family gathering

Me and my husband went to this restaurant on our way to the movies, the food was very plain tasting, but it was what happened at the end of the meal that upset me, the waitress stood at the end of our table and scrapped our plates right in front of us and piled them up and then placed the bill down in front of us and gave us old stale fortune cookies, I have worked in the industry of services myself you never clean a table while the partons are still sitting there that was rude and very unwelcoming.

This review is only for Korean-Chinese food. Parked and walked in. There was a customer with a take out food waiting (I wasn't sure if she was waiting to pay or not) and there was a lady standing behind the counter, her back to the door, looking at her phone and drinking tea. After five minutes, a male walks up to the customer waiting with the take out, I guess she wanted something extra with her order, after dropping off the items for the customer, the male turns to me asks how many, I said one. I got seated at the booth, reviewed the menu and then went with the following. - jjajangmyung - Tangsuyuk Tangsuyuk came out first, looked like the standard dish you'll find at other restaurants, but at this place, they added bamboo shoots and ginger to the dish. Unfortunately that ginger overpowered the sauce and bamboo shoots also did not help. They serve the dish with the sauce on top, most other joints will serve the sauce separately (I'm sure they will serve the sauce separately if you ask). Very different take on Tansuyuk. What would I change about this dish? First of all, remove the bamboo shoot and ginger and add bit more of vinegar to the sauce. Jjajangmyung - There's two things I like about this dish - 1) price and 2) portion size. It's below $9 and they give you lot of noodles for single order. Unfortunately, that's all I liked about this dish. The sauce is on salty side, in fact, this dish reminded me of the Beijing Jjajangmyung and this dish is nowhere close to the Korean-Chinese version... Also, on the menu, they called this the samsung Jjajangmyung (seafood version), but the only seafood in this dish is shrimp, cooked with pork and minced onions and zucchini. If they are going to call it samsung jjajangmyung, they need to add more seafood items to the dish. Overall, not impressed with the Tansuyuk or Jjangmyung. I'll come back and try their sichuan menu offering next time.

Pleasantly surprised to find authentic Szechuan cooking with good portions and flavors at this unassuming location. The service was prompt and courteous. They will cater the level of spice to your taste so it's not overwhelming but still flavorful. We had delicious eggplant, tender Szechuan fish , crispy green beans and excellent ma PAO tofu. Clean and tasteful Chinese decor with art and pictures . looking forward to our next meal !!

Totally in love with dishes as 1) Sliced Beef and Tendon in Chili 2) Fried pumpkin 1/Salted Egg York 3) Pig Blood in Chili Sauce 4) Szechuan Style chicken w/Chili Peppers 5) Cooked intestines w/Pepper in Dry Pot 6) Sandong Style Seafood Soup + Two (2) more additional dishes. Four (4) of us, ages varied from 20 to 82, we ate happily fulfilling and consumed at least 80-90% food during yesterday 12/22/2022 lunch. With decent price and smiling serving, homestyle! Happiness blended and grown.

This used to be our go to authentic Chinese restaurant but recently quality has deteriorated to a point there's no redemption - yet price has sky rocketed. We ordered four carry out dishes: one is completely wrong dish, one tastes spoiled, and one with human hair. I approached the owner and all I get is: sorry, we'll give you a dish for free next time. For sure there won't be a "next time" as we will never order again.

I remembered coming here with a large group of Chinese friends once years ago. The service was better and my friends ordered special Chinese dishes that you can't order unless you come with someone that can read off the Chinese menu. It was a rough start, the hostess and 2 waitresses spoke to me in Chinese. I stopped them by telling them I am korean and they switched to English. The hostess asked my hubby if he used chopsticks and he nodded his head to confirm that he does use chopsticks. Stir fried fish with vegetables, extra spicy, Mapo tofu, hot and sour soup, Napa cabbage in mashed dual chili sauce. The hot and sour is blah, not special, best hot and sour is still at Bangkok 96, a Thai restaurant of all places. The Napa cabbage in the mashed dual chili sauce and the mapo tofu were both good stuff. The stir fried fish with veggies was on the boring and bland side of the aisle, still wasn't spicy and had sliced garlic cloves without the the brown end still on it. The fish was a white fish and had some bones still in it and the sauce was very vanilla to me. There are a couple of private rooms closer to the bathrooms and one side of the restaurant is for booths and parties of 4 or smaller with one large round 8 top table and another round 5-6 top table. The other side of the bar has large party tables in the other room. The staff are pretty friendly and helpful at least. Prefer the food at Trizest on the east side of the city still.

That was the best cabbage dish I've ever had. Said no one ever. Yet somehow Empire Dynasty has transformed the humble cabbage into one of the tastiest veggie dishes I've ever had. I am not a vegetarian or vegan if that helps to give a sense of perspective. All of the dishes pictured were ordered off of the traditional Chinese menu, and super tasty. The fish was probably my favorite. The staff seems to only offer this menu when I'm with my Chinese-speaking parents. I have to request it when with a group of friends. My suggestion to the staff is that both the American Chinese and traditional Chinese (with an English translation) could be offered to all guests. There aren't many traditional Chinese restaurants like this in Southeast Michigan, I think guests really miss out on some of your best dishes and a unique dining experience when they don't have access to the traditional menu.

Don't eat here! There are ants all in my food. I can't upload my video to yelp but there are at least 3 in my takeout order. Not sure if they came from the broccoli but this is disgusting.

What is the point in asking for spicy level if your going to ignore it. Food was bland. Not a lot of chicken. Had extra ingredients that were not listed on the menu, like mushrooms on the sesame chicken and shrimp in the vegetable roll. I'm allergic to shellfish, glad I noticed or it could have been really REALLY bad!

If you really love traditional Chinese food believe me this is the best restaurant in this area. Our family enjoys their food a lot. Plus they will create even more new and delicious dishes for you to try you don't have to worry about having the same old menu like some restaurants and believe me their spicy Chinese food is to die for

I passed through Detroit, Michigan from Ohio, and tasted authentic Chinese-style Hunan and Sichuan cuisine at Lizhan Restaurant. It is very delicious and unique, and it is worth recommending to all diners, such as Yipin Guojiang Fish, Spicy Chicken, Yangzhou Dry Shredded, Waiting for all kinds of delicacies, everyone is welcome to come and sit often when you are free.

Highly disappointed with the food we picked up tonight. My boyfriend went inside to pay and the lady told him "no card, go get cash" so he came outside and luckily I carry cash. He picked up our food. We went home to realize they didn't even give us the soup we ordered. And the crab Rangoon was hard as a rock and dry. After paying $40 tonight I'd say it's completely over priced. I called the lady and told her we were missing the soup she started arguing with me and hung up the phone. I called back and tried explaining to her again. I asked for her to break down why the bill was so much money and she couldn't even do that. I wouldn't recommend going to this ghetto place.

If you are looking for some good Korean-Chinese food, this is the place. The restaurant is fairly big and has a nice updated interior. I came here with two people and we shared a jjajangmyun (black bean noodles), jjangpong (spicy seafood noodle soup), and ggangpoongi (garlic chicken). Let me start by saying the noodle dishes are amazing! The portions are huge and can easily be shared. The noodles are homemade so it has a nice chewy texture. The broth in the jjangpong has a earthy, meaty undertone so I'm assuming the base is a meat broth. The portion on the ggangpoongi was a little small but it was only $10 so I can't complain. The ggangpoongi was overall good but the meat was slightly dry for me but everyone else loved it. This review is solely on korean-Chinese food but it was delicious!! I definitely want to try their authentic Chinese food since the pictures all look great. I will be back!!

People complaining about this place are a bunch of whiny entitled assholes. If you go here on a Friday or a Saturday night and it's busy... guess what? YOU ARE GOING TO WAIT A LITTLE LONGER. That said, this place is delicious. They have two menus, an "American" one, and a Chinese one. We order off the Chinese menu. It's less descriptive so do a little homework before you go in. It's delicious and authentic, and I am looking forward to going back. Side note, if you find harmless racism and stereotyping funny like I do, this place gets an extra star. I'm a white dude, and when we were seated the waiter assumed we did not want or could not use chopsticks, and he took them off the table and put down spoons and forks. I politely asked for my chopsticks back, the waiter smiled and handed them over. I laughed about it the entire dinner.

This is really a genuine Chinese restaurant, so glad that I found this place. The spicy tofu is so good that I will definitely order it again next time. In fact, every dishes I ordered were great. So far, that's the best Chinese restaurant I've discovered in Michigan. Will definitely go there again.

I had initial apprehensions when seating required no wait on Christmas day which has become an increasingly popular day for Chinese dining in this area. My apprehensions were quickly put to rest. We started with scallion pancake and vegetarian spring roll appetizers which were excellent. Our entrees included chicken dishes, lo mein, and mixed vegetables. The servings were large and very tasty. The service was friendly, accommodating, helpful, and efficient. The ambience is pleasant and many of the other diners appeared to be regulars. We will be back.

I have eaten here now about 5 or six times, and it is has always been worth the extended drive from my home! It is one of the two places around here for authentic Chinese food. HINT: Make sure you ask for the Traditional Chinese Menu. Quit eating the American Chinese food and try some real Chinese food. Since my last visit they updated the interior and ti looks GREAT! Gina, the owner, remembered me and greeted me with a smile. It was great to be back. I ordered some of my favorites, the Cucumber in sauce (凉拌黄瓜), Szechuan style boiled fish (水煮鱼片) and some seasonal dishes. Amazing flavor and beautiful presentation. Enjoy the pictures, but better yet, get over there to enjoy the food! Spectacular food, wonderful flavors, and beautiful presentation. ， ，

Once a week I work in Farmington Hills. Empire Dynasty is only a minute down the road from my place of employment. It's become a routine for me to get lunch from here, and every time I get carryout I'm never disappointed. I've tried different Chinese restaurants in the Metro Detroit area, and it's hard to find one that does both American and traditional Chinese dishes correctly. I've had General Tso's chicken from at least a dozen different places, and theirs was my favorite by far. Not only was it sweet and spicy, but it also managed to remain crispy as well. I've also had the lamb stir fry with the rice and I couldn't believe how fresh and healthy it tasted. I look forward to trying the next new item I lay eyes on
