Chinese restaurant in Southport

“Every time we visit Southport (2 or 3 times a year) we make a point of coming to Empire. The quality of the food never fluctuates. It always remains of a high grade and tastes so good every time. The duck is just amazing and the randang curries full of flavour. Treated like individuals every time, even keeping a drink for us that isn't on the menu. Great service from Henry (and Henrys mum) and Lilly as ever. We look forward to coming back again soon. Thank you”

“I'm going to order tonight and saw 99 reviews and thought I'd love to be number 100! Ordered from here many times, would not go anywhere else for a Chinese. Great food, great service.”

“Great lemon chicken with chips and roast chicken with chips. Thank you”

“Tried this establishment just over a week ago now. Read great reviews about the quality of food and the price here on Google and on Southport food reviews on Facebook. Our food was that good we are placing our second order this evening 8th November. I have tried the salt and chilli ribs and they was absolutely tasty. Meat was tender and not burnt. I also had Special Curry with fried rice. The fried rice was probably the best I've ever tasted. Could eat that alone. To add to the rice my main was special curry. Absolutely delicious. All the meet was tender and the prawns best I've had. Not rubbery they was spot on. My wife ordered a fish and a carton of mushy peas. She tells me the fish was fresh and delicious, but the peas where like bullets. We will not let that put us off as she will be ordering the fish again without question. I'm really pleased we have found a Chinese takeaway who's food is tasty, hot, great price and delivered to our home. Thank you Golden Dragon.”

“I love a good Chinese, been shopping around for a while and finally found somewhere that is consistently delicious. I have had sweet and sour chicken, salt and pepper chicken, crispy shredded duck, crispy shredded chicken, sausages, fried rice, bbq sauce, salt and pepper chips to name a few. All where by far the best I have had in Southport. Nothing swimming in watery sauce, the sauce is thick, not over done, the veg is done nicely meaning your chicken still has that crispiness when it arrives. I have not tried the beef as not my usual go to. However I have not been disappointed with any aspect of their menu. I am so glad I have found this place. The meat is of good quality too, definitely prepped and stored correctly unlike some other places. I intentionally made sure to order several times before preaching this place to friends. I have NEVER left a google review before, but this place deserves it. 10/10.”

“If you want a five star takeaway then look no further. The menu is comprehensive with explanations. Gluten free etc are catered for. The ordering service was faultless and taken with thought and care. The food was delicious. You pay for what you get! Give it a try.”

“Perfect Chinese Lunch Walked on the main street in Southport and spotted this little hidden gem. Attracted by its lunch menu. Sweet n Sour Chicken is excellent as my gweilo boyfriend is an expert of S&S chicken. The coating is light and crispy, sauce perfectly hangs onto the chicken. Sourness and sweetness are at perfect balance. Beef curry the sauce is nice for chips dipping. Great value and friendly service, Will definitely be back with more friends!”

“Very pleasant all round. Food fresh and tasty. Service attentive but not intrusive and very much with a smile. We are not local so picked the restaurant on the strength of its reviews and were not disappointed. Would recommend.”

“Very good food will go back for sure.”

“We had a party of about 18 of us for my daughters 30th birthday. Wendy decorated the table with balloons and banners that had been dropped off, just one of the ways she went above and.beyond. The service and attention to detail was first class. All the staff were super lovely The food came out fast, and was very tasty. Their was a mix of vegan, veggie and meat eaters. Wendy and her team made such a fuss of the birthday girl which was lovely. I honestly am so glad we went there and no I'm not on my own in saying I'll be back soon”
