Golden Empress Garden - Darby Township

Very unsuspecting place!! The food was amazing and made to order! We will definitely be back!

Had such a wonderful experience here! Was looking for a vegan/vegetarian Chinese place and was glad to see they offered soy chicken instead of just vegetables. The owner's daughters were adorable and great conversation while I waited for my food!

This place used to be my favorite Chinese food spot 10 years ago+ so I came back for lunch and it was so different. I don’t know if owners changed or what but the food quality has gone down A LOT.

I have been going here and ordering delivery from them for years. I recall a time when all their dishes were delicious. Now, I have come to accept, although not great, an ok delivery spot. They have quick delivery service, friendly phone service, and vegatarian options. I recently ordered from them the Vegetarian House Special Mei Fun. It was supposed to their version of Singapore Mei Fun, curry, hot and spicy. It was not good. There was no curry, no spice, not hot. It was bland. There were almost no veggies in it. Some carrots and Napa cabbage, and a scallion slice. Even the meat version typically has veggies in it. There was a lot of fake meat. But all of it tasted the same. Also ordered the spring rolls, also bland. Everything was salty but there was no flavor. Very disappointed.

Just moved back to Philly from DC and was craving some Chinese. Wanted something semi close as was being delivered so chose Golden Empress Garden. Was impressed by quite a few things: 1) offered combos outside of just lunch hours. The combos let you choose either spring or egg roll spring roll was very good) AND BROWN RICE DIDN 'T COST EXTRA! I got the chicken w/garlic sauce with large chicken pieces not a lot of filler vegetables just broccoli, which was fresh). Also got the Happy Family which was very good and a generous portion. 2) choice of free items if you spend over $10 ! refreshing) 3) they use Beyond for delivery $3), meaning the restaurant 's own drivers vs. who knows w/other services with multiple orders VERY IMPRESSED! May be a new customer, but I 'll be a repeat one!
