Imperial Restaurant

Family lunch on a Saturday and the restaurant was not full. The service staff assigned to our table was superb. She was attentive, courteous and served every dish that came to our table. Very friendly. We ordered 2 set meals (1 set meant for 5pax) for our table of 11 adults plus a xiao lung bao. The food was well prepared, not salty (our preferred taste), and the fluffy egg white was our favourite. Herbal soup was also very good. Truly value for money as the set meals were nett price and tea was charged by the pot & not individual pax. The only item not very nice was the XLB which I found the skin thick and has no soup in the dumpling. Will recommend.

Purchased the voucher from Fave app & had Set B. Voucher excludes the side dishes and Chinese tea. Strangely the voucher was reflected as redeemed in the app prior our visit. Special mention to the restaurant staff, Vicky/Vicki who assisted us & allowed us to proceed with our meal using the Fave voucher. Every single dish is so on point & well balanced with herbs, there’s nothing to fuss about. Didn’t expect walnuts would go so well with soups & savoury dishes. Personal favourites: the fluffy egg white, braised chicken and braised bee hoon. Set B is good for 5 adults. Thank you for the excellent dining experience!

Was recommended this place by my daughter after having a company lunch there. Well it’s a very typical Chinese restaurant with friendly service although it was a little slow. The dishes came one at a time but I wished they were served quicker. Ambience wise, I felt I was transported back to the 70s or 80s - LOL. Food wise, I did not find what we tried outstanding. The Fluffy Egg white was not really special. Needed more taste. The soups were good though. We enjoyed them. The claypot tou fu with seafood was nicely done. We enjoyed that as well especially when it was still warm from the claypot. But then I have to mention that similar dishes could be made at tze-char stores. The braised Ee-fu noodles was a little under seasoned. Perhaps we should have ordered the fried version what was the other Ee-fu noodles on the menu. Overall, I was expecting more.

Staff were mostly friendly and the food tasted really good. Don't expect HDL level of services. Prices are fair and relatively cheaper as it's located in a really old hotel. 1 point to note is that this place is quite inaccessible from the carpark for people on wheelchair or with weak legs as the only way to the restaurant from the carpark is by climbing a flight of stairs. You have to drop them off at the hotel lobby first. Also, carpark coupons are not given and parking is quite expensive. You'll have to go down to the carpark, get a receipt for the parking, and go back up to the restaurant to get a reimbursement if you want.
