Overall, reviews describe Restaurant Impérial as a large, welcoming spot with generous portions and a strong emphasis on dim sum and family style dining. Many patrons highlight speedy, attentive service and a decor that feels elegant, while others recount slower, less attentive visits or inconsistent staff. Dim sum offerings are frequently praised for freshness and bold flavors, with favorites such as shrimp dumplings, siu mai, xiao long bao, and sticky rice arriving in generous bamboo baskets. Several reviews applaud convenient features such as ample parking and QR code or app based ordering that speeds service during busy periods. However, service quality is inconsistent, with some experiences marked by overworked staff, delays, and occasional tipping pressure. Prices are described as high in some reviews, but many patrons feel the large portions and quality justify the cost. Overall, it remains a popular choice for dim sum in the West Island, especially for gatherings, offering generous portions, variety, and a lively atmosphere, with room for improvement in consistency.
Beef chow fun was smoky & flavorful, seafood crispy noodles had perfect crunch with rich seafood sauce, chicken feet were tender & well-seasoned, & the seafood tofu soup was comforting & full of fresh flavor. Generous portions & authentic, worth a visit!
The food is fine but be careful & check your bill. Not only have i been overcharged with extra dishes but also they charged us twice for the same meal by allowing two different people to unknowingly pay the same bill - how could that even be possible??.

It was my first visit to Restaurant Imperial in the DDO Mega Mall & I was impressed by the warm greeting & the welcoming atmosphere. We ordered the Hot & Sour Soup & Peanut Butter Dumplings & they arrived quickly. They were fresh & delicious. We also ordered Crispy Noodle Black Pepper Sauce Beef on Sizzling Plate, Peanut Butter Chicken Crispy Spinach & General Tao Chicken. The food was fresh & tasty & the service was impeccable. Will definitely visit again. This has become my favourite West Island Chinese restaurant.
I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. The ambiance is warm & inviting, creating a truly enjoyable dining atmosphere. More importantly, the food exceeded expectations. I've never been a fan of orange chicken until now. The dish here was a standout, with tender, flavorful chicken & a perfectly balanced sauce. I'll certainly be returning for another visit.
Forget about going there if you don't have data on your phone to order on-line.
Took us a while to get the attention of the waiters to order our meal the'traditional way'. Dim sum was ok, did not impress us. We will not return.
It was very nice inside, the plates are huge, somewhat oily,not flavourful. The servers who bring the food don't speak English, the waiters are nice & helpful. Menu can be updated.
Was there for Father's Day dim sum lunch at 10.30am . We came from out of town to celebrate there because their location was convenient.
Place was clean ,well decorated, some of the elder waiters were not polite, some younger ones were very nice . Food tasted generally OK but some were cold to touch ,possibly were too rush to send to customers. Washrooms were OK .Food prices were not expensive. Hope their management will pay attention to Foods quality & train the waiters be more polite. We were a bit disappointed.

Been here a handful of times & it has never disappointed. They're quick with refilling water pitchers, fast at serving food & assisted when taking out food. Portions are very reasonable.
Service was great :)
-General tao was great.
-Duck was awesome & delicious.
-Chicken with bone was awesome.
-Noodles were broken & not really tasty, it missed seasoning.
-Chopsticks made of plastic are not appealing or appropriate, the restaurant could do better on this.
