“ First time going to Imperial. The service was excellent. The food was great, especially the steak! Just a lovely atmosphere and our waiter Corey made me feel welcomed. Corey was the best all night. Very attentive and welcoming. Thanks again Corey!!! Kodoos to the manager who gave us a smile and sat us down even though we were 45 mins early!! ”
“ My friends and I planned a retirement party at the Imperial this weekend and it was sheer perfection. From the time I called about the reservation (thanks Corey) to the moment I arrived, I felt special. We had a private section to ourselves and a server that catered to our every need (thanks Owen) creating memories that will last a lifetime. The food was delicious, my salmon was perfect (complements to the chef) and the place is gorgeous. Thanks Imperial for making our celebration so amazing! ”
“ I have wanted to come here for a while. My husband and I finally made it out for an early anniversary dinner and it was perfect. They even had a little "Happy Anniversary" sign on the table when we arrived. We are both vegan and the options were incredible, and apparently they will be adding more options in the near future. We got the lions mane steak and watermelon "tuna" tacos. The staff was wonderful, the restaurant was beautiful, we really loved it. We will definitely be back! ”
“ Everyone was amazing. Food was delicious. Presentation was beautiful. Our waiter Craig was very attentive. From my understanding we were given a new menu and they knocked it out of the park. We order an appetizer and chicken for the baby both came out before our food which I can't say enough positive things about. All dishes were hot and exactly how we ordered them. Salmon, crab cake, and beef tenderloin. ”
“ We came for brunch before going to the Fulton theatre April 27, 2025. Food was very good, service was professional and swift. The only downfall was that they have a bar in the front and there had been a loud, obnoxious group of people breaking glasses and acting very low class, obviously couldn't hold their liquor. They should have been flagged! We would have left if we had time to go elsewhere. ”
“ I went to a brunch and bachata hosted by acquaintance. Didn't eat anything here, but the vibe was awesome, and the terrace view was great. Would definitely go back! ”
“ I had a fabulous time and meal at the Imperial. The service was excellent - Corey in particular was eager to make sure everyone was having a memorable night. The place was buzzing, but we had no trouble getting a table. right away. There's an excellent beer selection and knowledgeable bar staff - I think they said all their drafts are local craft beers? The numerous vegan and vegetarian options are creative and superb. I know I'll be back! ”
