YUM!
My husband and I LOVE this place. After moving to Philly we tried every Chinese restaurant we came across. I was dissatisfied with the vegetarian options and general taste of each one. Then a friend recommended Golden Empress Garden and we've never gone anywhere since. Their food is amazing. The vegetarian options are to die for, especially if you want a change of pace from steamed veggies. (try the orange "chicken.") My husband isn't a huge fan of chinese food, but now we order it every week. The staff are very friendly and the service is pretty quick (we always get take out). Even though we live in South Philly we've never waited more than 30 minutes for our dinner.

some of the best chinese food i have ever had but where the f*** is sam!!!!
about 2 years ago, my bf and i faithfully started coming to this place every weekend for delicious chinese food. we also had no car so we were going by train, bus, boat you name it!! but after we got our car we came up there one night and some greasy teenage girl was standing behind the counter, and the tables had been moved around, only enough for us to know that it was a difference. the food was not only disgusting but our beloved sam (the front end guy we love, who even knew our orders by heart) was not there. they gave us some junk about how he went on vacation. that was almost 6 months ago. evey so often, when we are on south we drop in, and he still is not there. without any notice, a letter or anything posted in the wonderful wall-o-entertainment, he and his staff were gone. what happened? we stopped eating there. hopefully everythingis okay with sam.(we miss you buddy) ps....that chick at the counter got our order completely wrong, it were things flying around, and we were over charged, twice. if sam aint there i doubt we will eat there evey again.

Great Chinese, Great Vegetarian, Great service
I agree with the last comment. The food's great and Sam is a wonderful host. He was gone for awhile on vacation or something but he's back now. I just went in last week and saw him there even friendlier than ever.
