Empire Wok Chinese - Groton

This restaurant is a true local treasure and a delightful indulgence! I've enjoyed everything I've tried here (and I'm quite adventurous when it comes to food), but their C28 General Tso's Chicken, 53 Chicken Lo Mein, and chicken with broccoli are absolutely fantastic! The side dishes are also delicious!

The cold peanut noodles were a disaster; it felt like they just scooped a dollop of peanut butter on top—they were so thick I couldn't even mix it in with the overcooked noodles, and it didn't resemble a sauce at all. The egg roll was far from fresh. The only positive note I can make is that they were generous with the portions, which I would have appreciated if the food had been good. However, for me, quality is far more important than quantity! I cannot recommend this place at all.

Everything seemed to be overcooked and double fried; it was truly disappointing. The dishes were drenched in MSG. I can't believe what has happened to this place!

I ordered Beef Chow Mein, but I got Beef with Mixed Vegetables instead. I know I got the wrong item because there isn't a single noodle in the food. At least the fried dumplings and spring rolls were really good.

I absolutely love Empire Wok! The food is fantastic, and the staff is wonderful. I've been ordering from them for years! While I miss the ability to place orders on Saturdays, I completely understand the change. Keep it up!
