Empire Garden

Although it opened just last year, Empire Garden has already catapulted itself into the upper echelon of Gambrills’ dining scene. This is partly due to being located where the borders of three towns meet.

Perfect for throwing a big party, a date, or even for catering your next party, Empire Garden has something for everyone. Patrons can celebrate a birthday in style or have Empire Garden cater their next event. With 120 seats in the main dining area and 16 seats at the wine and sushi counter, you can be sure you’ll never have to wait too long to enjoy Empire Garden’s delectable offerings.

Empire Garden provides traditional and Americanized Chinese cuisine, as well as some well-known Japanese dishes. But, its main focus is on Cantonese cuisine which is known around the world for its flawless combination of beauty and flavor.

The signature dishes are Black Pepper Steak, General Tso's Chicken, and Lobster with Ginger and Scallion. The restaurant’s most popular dish is the Black Pepper Steak. If you like steak you won’t want to miss this customer favorite. Who can resist a fresh grilled steak sautéed with black pepper and served on an iron plate with special sauce on the side? Not that many, judging by how often the dish is ordered.

Empire Garden’s menu changes on a weekly basis and features different dishes depending on the season as well as market availability. Customers also have a say in what is offered.

Empire Garden's waiters care about customers and will recommend healthier and lighter dishes for older customers. As senior citizens tend to dislike raw food, the sashimi at the sushi bar is lightly fried and served together with special sauces. Of course, Empire Garden cares about everyone and shows this by offering a lunch buffet for those who work near the restaurant.
