Empire Wok - Draper

Basically a knock off of Panda Express but at least Panda Express gives you warm rice and more than one entree option for the same price. Bland rice. I got sesame chicken and my friend got orange chicken; the sauces and flavors were exactly the same, they just threw sesame seeds onto my chicken.

Visited during lunch around noon on a Monday. Very affordable lunch specials with generous portions. I ordered the chicken and shrimp in brown sauce lunch special with a small side of wonton soup. I unfortunately found the chicken and shrimp meal to be sub-par but I really liked the wonton soup. Empire Wok is a good option if you want a cheap meal with generous portions.

Not bad. The rice didn't have a lot of flavor and had a thick consistency. The ham in it was good though. What my partner and I got were lemon chicken, chicken lo men, donuts, and cream cheese won tons. The donuts and cream cheese were pretty great! The sauce for the wontons was watered down, but it was actually still nice because normally the sauce can be over powering. As for our main meals, as I mentioned before with the rice, we weren't impressed. The lemon chicken wasn't bad, but I have yet to find somewhere with good lemon chicken. I should just start ordering orange chicken. The chicken lo men had good flavor but a pasta like texture for the noodle which was weird. Overall, it was a lot of food for the price. I do wish that the rice was better though.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic and the portions are very generous! I especially enjoy their chicken and shrimp dishes.

How was my experience? I make it better at home with a cheap brand bottle sauce and steamed rice. I used the bathroom 10 times today (after the day) and counts! I was hoping to have a good Chinese cash register. Eat here if Metamucil doesn't work.
