Reviews
"I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Empress of China on Little Bourke Street, and I must say, it's an absolute gem. If you're after an uncomplicated dining experience with tasty food that won't break the bank, this is the place for you. Starting with the Pan Fried Vegetarian Dumplings and Fried Green Beans in Garlic, the flavours were vibrant and fresh, an absolute delight for my vegetarian companion. My order of the Chicken and Corn Soup was just as satisfying. The flavors were comforting and well-balanced, making it a dish I'd happily recommend. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect from a budget-friendly dumpling place - no frills, just good, honest food. The restaurant was bustling, adding to the vibrant, authentic vibe. The service was efficient and friendly, considering the crowd. The system of writing your order on a piece of paper and waving down a server was uncomplicated and quick. I wholeheartedly recommend the Empress of China for anyone looking for a casual dining spot with tasty food. Its cheap, fast service, friendly staff and a wide range of menu options accommodating various dietary needs make it a go-to spot in the city."
"I remember visiting here years ago and know I enjoyed it. I don't think it has changed at all. There is still a staircase to climb to reach the extra dining space. Plenty of choice on the menu. Dumplings and wontons were good. Salt and pepper squid was not what I expected. Service was efficient. The place was full making for a lively Thursday dinner. 3 of us attended at a cost of $25 each"
"Big portions comparing to other restaurants, very authentic style, and nothing too fancy. Overall good place and good food."
"Cheap place . Quick service with big portions. I've ordered many things in the past and love the wonton with chilli oil. Fried dumplings r ok for the price but not that great. Rice dishes are great mostly but the presentation is not so appealing but tasty."
