  1. Great tasting fast food. Fellow Yelper Christy L. Summed it up best. "This place is dirt cheap…" for a Chinese take out place you can't go wrong.

    I have only been here a few times, but I am always satisfied with the food. The chicken lo mein, the double sauteed pork and the beef and broccoli always hit the spot.

    The place literally is like a dive, if you're not careful you can easily miss it on Horace Harding Expressway. Just use the McDonalds as a reference since "Imperial Taste" is only a few stores from it. Oh yeah, the restaurant is called "Imperial Taste" NOT "Imperial Wok" Semantics I know,forgive me. (^_^)

    What I really enjoy about this particular establishment is the tasty sauce and gravy on the dishes. The sauce is salty but at the same time not too salty if you know what I mean.

    If you want to know what I really mean, try it out for yourself. You can thank me later.

  2. I've come here 3x now and enjoyed all the food so far. Not bad for a chinese food spot. I like watching the guy in the back cook on his wok. Once I've tried more of their dishes I'll give a 2nd review with more detail about what I liked and didn't…

  3. so I just ordered for delivery and the food was here in 15 minutes. that's stupid fast considering I live about five minutes drive from this place.

  4. My favorite Chinese takeout EVER. I crave the food at imperial wok. The woman at the counter can be a little grumpy, but if you're a regular she will hook it up. Free drink or free egg roll for you! The cheese wontons and the garlic chicken are my personal favorites. Everything here is phenomenal and the delivery/pick up time is quick. The price is pretty cheap too, so be prepared to eat like a king or queen without breaking open your piggy bank.

    The decor here is not the best. I would advise eating else where. To my knowledge this place has an A health rating, so don't let the decor fool you. I am pretty sensitive to MSG and I never have any issues when eating here.

    Also, be sure to tip your delivery man. He has no problem coming back to your door and telling you that you didn't tip him. A little pompous, but I respect the hustle.

  5. Sadly, I eat take out at least twice a week.  Their chicken and broccoli is great. Sometimes can be kind of salty but seriously? It's Chinese take out, that shit is salty oily and will give you heartburn.  I have taken quite a liking to their beef Lo mein. I only wish there was more noodles and not so much meat, but that's just me being… Weird lol.

    This place is a hole in the wall so whats up with this talk about it being dirty and all? it's a take out place come on -_- the other Chinese food place around the corner (I didn't feel the name of the joint important enough to remember… I can just tell you it's got a green theme going on), charge a lot for what? This place is dirt cheap and delivers what you want no thrills no frills. For example, you can order a small and that shit is so overflowing it may as well be called a medium.

    Plus the owner here are so kind to my family. Always giving my kid brother a soda… The chef would even walk out to the car because he knows my brothers sitting inside (he gave me one too hehe). That's some customer service.
