Empire House Chinese Restaurant 8.4
Gravesend
Vibes: Quick Bites Champions Family Friendly Favorites Group Dining Gatherings Comfort Food Classics
High-output Stillwell Avenue standby that leans into big portions, a long list of chicken and seafood specials, and dependable delivery. It’s strongest when you stick to the house specialties and share family-style rather than chasing every corner of the menu.
Must-Try Dishes: General Tso's chicken, sesame chicken, Lake Tung Ting shrimp
