“ The shrimp and broccoli just ask for spicy if you can handle it. Been going here for years for just the shrimp and broccoli it's a delicious rendition! ”
“ Been going here since I was a small girl. The workers are always nice and ordering on the phone is very quick. Once I ordered something with meat and the guy on the phone knew I was pescatarian just from my order, and recommended something else tasty. 10/10 restaurant. The food is made quickly and they will call you if you forgot about your order. Definitely recommend. ”
“ The steamed dumplings were too doughy, edamame was cold and barely salted and the egg drop soup was not great. My kid loves this spot and usually his fried sweet and sour chicken. However, even that was stale tasting. We may have gone too close to closing though. ”
“ Nothing fancy, just a solid menu of Chinese take-out standards, with lots of vegan options. Personal favorites include the veggie lo mein (I add tofu for $1), and the General Tso's tofu. Friendly, covid safe service, and quick delivery as well. ”
“ Chinese take-out places are typically a good option for a quick vegan meal, even as they range in quality. Located on West Chester Pike, Imperial House is an unassuming, yellow signed Chinese place recognizable in almost every community. I ordered via Grub Hub and picked up the order, which was ready when I arrived. The sesame tofu is simple, the sauce not too sweet yet very flavorful. The broccoli is fresh, steamed just enough so it still crunches and flavored with a spicy pepper sauce. The service was great, the woman at the counter who was also cooking greted me with a smile, and when I asked about vegan option s(ie: no fish sauce), she knew her menu. Highly recommended for Chinese takeout in UD, Overbrook, Havertown, etc. ”
“ Was feeling hungry but only had an old pepper and onion in my cabinet. I called in delivery for Imperials Bourbon Chicken. It arrived in perfect deliveryery time for a weekend night, 30 minutes, just in time to cook up my veggies and serve. My husband got pork fried rice and that was a step above the usual, with a hint of ginger in the flavoring. ”
“ For chinese take out this place is great. The food is ready fast have had good service picking up and using delivery. Egg Rolls aren't the best but I dont even usually eat General Tso chicken, and find myself craving it from time to time now cause it is great here. It is not mushy like some places it is crispy and full of flavor. If your in the mood for some chinese take out this is your spot. ”
