Sushi, crab Rangoon. Cucumber salad, tomatoes, lo mien, snow crab salad, sweet and sour chicken, spicy Mayo
Orey K.

I have been working on this fun little piece about Chinese buffets being a staple of American culture, the difference in products and food styles, the nostalgic feeling of walking up to the buffet...... I've eaten at several buffets around the New Orleans area for this piece. I'm going to take a little break after this location. Chopstix in Gretna.... I don't know what I ate that just made me pray to a trashcan while sitting on the porcelain god. I enjoyed my time there. The staff was friendly. The food wasn't bad.... But not the best. It definitely wasn't worth the time I just spent speaking to Jesus. I guess the nap after was nice. I won't be in again.... Even though you are close to work for me 2/10 you get one for the sweet staff and the other one for putting out fresh crab Rangoon while I was there. #neveragain

The crawfish is under seasoned. So is the fried rice and chicken wings. I feel like $20 is high to eat off paper plates and plastic utensils. But some of the food was good.

a variety of sushi and rolls

This is the first time I have been back here in a few years. I really enjoyed the meal. I found everything to be clean and necessary health precautions were taken. Everything was disposable (except for the cups). The buffet had disposable gloves to wear while serving. Not all of the food sections were open, to create more space for people getting their food. Everything we tried tasted hot and fresh (we went within 30 minutes of them opening). The service was prompt. I would return in the future!

Actual price for food!

The food was great! Definitely get the crawfish during season or pepper chicken. Ice cream at the end also hit the spot.

After we got off work today. Charla took me down Magazine St to Miss Shirley's. I knew Miss Shirley…read morefrom the Royal China days in Metairie. Back then it was my first Dim Sum experience and then when I worked in Heritage Plaza during Katrina recovery days we ate lunch there at least once a week. But this is all new! I'm so happy for Miss Shirley and the amazing place that has her name on it on Magazine St. The food was exceptional. Everything from the short ribs to the Soup Dumplings, to the Moo Shu with those paper thin pancakes. Everything was fresh and fantastic. What a great time and it was so good to see Miss Shirley again after all these years.

My wife and I visited Miss Shirley's on a co-worker's recommendation. Despite there being no line…read morewhen we arrived, the wait for a table was a little over an hour. Thankfully, Magazine Street offers plenty to do to pass the time! When we were finally seated, our table was toward the back near the kitchen. The interior is a cozy but tightly packed space, which means it gets pretty loud with all the chatter bouncing around. However, any issues with the crowded feel vanish once the food arrives. The food and service easily make up for it. Our waiter brought out complimentary fried beef dumplings with a house-made chili sauce that tasted incredible. We ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice (shrimp, pork, chicken, egg, pineapple, and onions) and it was absolute perfection. We also got the lightly battered Orange Ginger Chicken with broccoli, which had amazing flavor. Well worth the visit!

My last visit I ordered dinner for the family and we all shared the dishes. Everything taste fresh and every bite had my tongue dancing with flavor.

I remember when this place used to be called Christine's Empress of China. I believe Christine was…read morethe owner back then, and now it's simply Empress of China. The name may have shortened, but the experience is still just as memorable. From the outside, you're not really sure what you're about to walk into. You get a hint of the Asian aesthetic, but you don't realize how immersive it's going to feel. Then you open the door. Right at the entrance is a koi fish pond with a small bridge over it. No, you can't walk across the bridge, but the koi are real, and you walk right by them on your way to the dining room. It immediately sets the tone. The dining room itself feels like you've stepped straight into China. The decor, the lighting, the details, everything transports you. It matches the cuisine and elevates the entire dining experience. The waitresses are incredibly sweet, respectful, patient, and kind. They answered all of my questions about the menu without hesitation and made sure we felt comfortable. The service feels authentic and attentive without being rushed. I ordered the boneless chicken with vegetables, fried rice, and egg rolls. The homemade egg rolls are always my favorite. You can absolutely tell they're hand rolled and not pulled from a freezer. The boneless chicken is made with hand cut chicken breast, and the batter is soft and flaky. It almost melts in your mouth. Everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The portion sizes are generous. It's definitely a eat now, eat later, and maybe even share with a friend kind of place. If you've only ever ordered takeout from here, you are missing half the experience. Sit down inside and take it all in. It's one thing to eat Chinese food. It's another thing to feel like you've been transported while doing it. This place leaves an impression.

The waiter came and took our order and the food came out quickly. There's a lunch special between 1-4pm, so we opted to try the beef cubes, fried chicken, fish, and kung pao chicken. It also comes with a gigantic egg roll filled with meat and veggies, a bowl of egg drop soup, and fried rice. It's a huge dish for a lunch special plate. Everything was delicious, but the kung pao dish and egg rolls didn't taste as authentic. We enjoyed our meal here and would come back and try different dishes next time. If you're looking for a hearty delicious Chinese or Vietnamese meal, come here and try it. You'll leave so full with leftovers as well.

It took a while for our servers to find us and when our orders were put in it took over an hour to deliver two dishes. We had to remind them and ask them multiple times when our meal would come. We were met with the response that the large event would take priority over our meals. This wasn't my fav response because it just seemed that if you have an event going on, there would be other staff to take care of their food. The wait time was really disappointing. The black pepper tofu was quite good and the lemongrass tofu was decent but would prob not get it again.
