What People Are Saying About Imperial Inn
The Editor

In Short – Szechuan, Mandarin and Cantonese selections are the framework of a menu filled with classic Chinese dishes. Appetizers and dim sum are unquestionably the highlight: The Phoenix roll is a delicate, crisp roll filled with mixed seafood served with a pungent hoisen sauce; tender translucent balls of steamed shrimp dumplings are ample and succulent. A dessert combination of syrupy fried bananas with a scoop of vanilla ice cream cleanses the palate after a sodium-saturated meal.

Dim Sum
by tekkid
I only go here for Dim Sum. My advice is to get there around 11:30 am on a saturday. The food is more fresh because they just made it. And some much food rolls out. Authentic Asian foods. I felt like i was in china with some of the dishes. For the amount of food, you will be surprise how much your bill is. Its not expensive. I love it!
- Pros: Love a good Dim Sum

The epitome of Chinatown's awesomeness
by nobananas
The Imperial Inn has been a leader in Chinatown for the longest time. I've been coming here since childhood and the food has always been fresh, classic and delicious. The service can be unreliable, but the portions, atmosphere and seating are worth it.
For the dinner menus, stick with meat and vegetable dishes (they're not known for their wonton soups).
- Pros: Seating, food, prices
- Cons: Service
