    Christmas night dinner is always a pleasure at Imperial. They were super busy, some people knew what to expect, others didn’t. Our food was quick and delicious but we were only a party of two. Thanks again, Imperial!

    We think there were only two waiters. We arrived for reservation at 230pm and our waiter didn’t come by until 305pm. We left at 445pm. Unfortunate that there wasn’t enough help on Christmas Day. Will be back but unsure about on a holiday.

    Imperial Palace is a landmark restaurant in Denver and has been my favorite for decades. They are consistent in their food. And the best sesame chicken hands down.

    The atmosphere was great and the food was delicious. We hadn’t been to the restaurant in 20 years, but it was still outstanding.

    The food was not edible, obviously new owners. They put yellow mustard and a spicey like barbeque sauce on the table instead of Chinese Mustard and Sweet and Sour sauce. We could not even eat the food , it was so horrible. We paid , left and went to another restaurant. It was the worst dining experience I have ever had !!!
