What People Are Saying About Eastern Empire

The Scene – The restaurant is decorated in black and tan hues with a few standouts, such as a three-foot-tall Buddha, a gargantuan mural and a gurgling stone-fish fountain. Each table is equipped with a tropical drink menu that looks as if it came from a bar in Hawaii, circa 1960. Along with the regular frou-frou stuff like pina coladas and daiquiris, you'll find the Suffering Bastard, a potent blend of Jamaican rum, lime and secret ingredients. – – The Food – Find traditional Chinese and South Pacific dishes mixed with creative items like the Imperial Seafood Bird…
Ate here once, once is enough
by Wherethesun
The service was rude to indifferent, the food was the same. the vegetable in the dishes served were not fresh, the shrimp were ripe smelling, the chicken-well-the chicken feet and skin-to be specific-did not smell like the chicken promised in the dishes served. Eat here at your own risk.
All You Can EAT

Wow! The Cosmopolitan all you can eat buffet is truly unparalleled. With over 20 dishes comprised of everything from kung pao chicken and orange beef to spicy tangy wonton and walnut prawns, the cosmopolitan menu serves to satisfy the taste buds of beef, chicken and seafood lovers. But really, try the walnut prawns. You won't regret it.
This is how it works:
1.) You start of the night by ordering some appetizers, but if you're like me, I go straight for the main entrees like walnut prawns and kung pao chicken. I mainly order these dishes so I can't exactly remember the rest of the menu. You'll have to find out for yourself.
2.) Every dish including the main entree is served in smaller portions so everyone can try a bit of everything. And you're still hungry, just order more. The price is set.
3.) Dessert! Need I say more?
Service:
The service is mostly on pace, but sometimes can be a little slower than usual on the busier nights (Friday and Saturday). Waiting for a table on a busy night may take about ten minutes, but the food is worth it. especially the cosmopolitan dinner. Yum!
amazing chinese food! Has a cook to order buffet, the only one in town I know of.

The restuarant has a great atmosphere. The entryway with its fountain, textured walls and antique wodden doors invokes a sense of ancient gradeur. Once inside, there are comfortable booths, regular tables, and a full bar. The women's bathroom has a fancy electronic toilet from Japan which is really cool
The best part, of course, is the food. For less than $15, they have a cook to order buffet. You can chose from over 30 different items, and your server will bring you a small plate of any item you want, all you can eat, and fresh from the kitchen. If you want a wonderful Chinese buffet but prefer your food freshly made and served at the table, this place is for you!
