Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

My review is solely based on takeout. Passing through town and stayed at the quality in for the night. Imperial delivered to my door. Not the quickest delivery but I'm not sure how far they were and in their defense, there was also a storm that night. My house lo mein was the best I've had. I sporadically order lo mein from Chinese restaurants, usually to be disappointed by a greasy and unsatisfying dish. On the contrary here. Noodles, meats and veggies were cooked perfectly, noodles were super flavorful and not overly greasy. My boyfriend and I devoured the dish. Unlike his curried fried rice. Bland. Required two packs of soy sauce just to give it enough flavor.

Do not miss this great gem in Lincoln! The food and service are great. The menu offers many options, including vegetarian & gluten free items that cater to even the pickiest eater. The staff is very friendly and can help explain the menu. The crab rangoons, fried rice and lemon chicken can't be missed. The dishes with Chinese charters on the side are authentic Chinese cuisine and are perfect for those who are looking for an authentic dining experience.

I was really pleasantly surprised on my visit here. I thought for sure I would be watching everyone else eat and I'd be out of luck. There was a server who was brought over to speak with me since her English was excellent. She knew exactly what gluten was and what I could have. The sauce is a garlic white sauce and I could pick whatever wasn't fried to have them put it on. I ordered the cashew chicken and it with the sauce was delicious. The egg drop soup was also gluten free and very good. My coresidents all enjoyed their meals as well. Atmosphere is pretty traditional for Chinese dining with a lot of decorations with red and gold, dragons, and those great Chinese astrology place mats. Everyone was very friendly, food came out quickly and was a large portion, and price was very reasonable. I'll definitely be stopping by here again sometime soon.

I'm pretty content with this place! The staff is friendly and I have absolutely no complaints about the food. The decor is pretty cool too! One of my top 3 Chinese places in Lincoln.

I took my mom here for lunch, and it was absolutely horrible. They sat us down and ignored us for 10 minutes they even served the people after us. Finally he came over and we told him our order and. I got my freezing cold soup and they forgot moms. We told him twice she finally got her "Sizzling rice soup' which to be honest looked like some cleaned out of the kitchen sink and put it in her bowl.when we got our food it was covered in this salty brown gravey. I got the Beef and Broc and mom got something else. I was so dissapointed we paid the bill and left. Than went to Arbys cause we were starving. I heard so many good things from friends and even on here but to be honest I'll never go back. We got sick after that place! I don't complain much but OH MY GOD I had to warn other people don't go for lunch the server was a jerk and the food was freaking disgusting.

I have been going to Imperial Palace since I was a kid. I stopped going to the restaurant regularly because: a) the service is not as good as it used to be, b) I would usually go on the weekend, but it started to seem like the restaurant was constantly closed for weddings, and c) Golden Wok across the street has a children's menu, which is very nice. I do, however, still always order my delivery from Imperial Palace. As others have noted, they have an authentic Chinese menu, which is great. We like the beef in hot oil. The old Chinese standbys like Mongolian Beef are also tasty. Delivery is usually pretty fast, but not necessarily inexpensive. I do not live at all close by though, and they still deliver to me, which is great because all of the Chinese places near me suck.

Very good food! :) A business/Restaurant you can count on, they care.

A nice Chinese restaurant. Food there are real Chinese ones. Some of them are of course modified a little bit to fit Americans. After all it is a nice place worth to go.

We have been making the Imperial Palace our "go to" place for takeout for some time now. It one of the usual "I buy, you fly" places that I send my wife when she doesn't feel like cooking. Normally, we have a good experience and the food is pretty good. However, we got take out last Friday night and the food was well below their usual standard. I ordered the moo shoo pork which is usually superb. I am not sure if they changed their recipe but it was watery, and flavorless. Even with addition of plum sauce did little to add flavor. My wife ordered the sesame chicken which does not have the little pepper indicator in the menu which means it was not hot. She immediately noticed flecks of red pepper in it and it was too spicy for her to eat. I will say they are one of the only places in town that you can get shrimp toast which is one of may all time favorites. So for that reason alone we will continue to stop by for occasional take out. Shrimp toast good. Everything else was strictly mediocre.

This is one of the few great Chinese restaurants in Lincoln. The food is great and comes with a great price. Excellent sesame chicken with a delicious sauce.. Yum ! The decor and tables could use some updating, and the lighting. could definitely be brighter.

We live in Omaha and have to drive down to Lincoln every time we want great Chinese food. Well worth the drive! Best Chinese food in Nebraska! The Sesame Chicken and the Chicken Lo Mein are excellent. The service is sometimes sub par but the food definitely over shines it.

Their food is mediocre. I can't tell you that I prefer other restaurants than this place. They started to get really arrogant because they have a good business in catering for weddings. The waitress didn't seem to care about us and more worried about being right. I will never ever go back to this place and I will not give this place a good rating.
(1)Jonathan S.
Actually pretty good Chinese food. If you like spicy you'll like this, it is a suisan specialty place. Most of the servers are Chinese though so you'll have to be patient with them!

I was thrilled to see that they offered an "authentic" menu. Most of it is in English except for the really hardcore fare (chicken feet, etc.). Portions are huge. One entree is easily enough for two or three people, plus it comes with a huge bowl of rice. If you want to try some authentic-style dishes I would recommend: Twice Cooked Pork Cumin Beef Red Chili Oil Beef Service was very good, food comes out out quick and hot. The staff really opened up once they recognized I respected them and was sincerely interested in their culture on my second visit. I will definitely be trying some more authentic entrees on my next visit to Lincoln.

This place offers the most authentic Chinese food I've ever had in the States! - I have a say as a resident of Queens in NY, as a native Beijinger (of course we always order from their Chinese menu). It's totally surprising and lucky to find such a place in Lincoln, where me and my husband temporarily work. Our conversation with owners of the restaurant explained: both of them went to a well known culinary school in Beijing before moving to US, which makes sure their recipes differentiate themselves from those Americanized Chinese takeouts. Besides delicous food, generous portions, I recognized the decor, including gate and wall reliefs, laterns, are handmade artworks from central China, adding warmth and elegance to overall ambience. Servers very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Decent chinese food, not as good as I hopede it will be. I came here more than once, but the food was not full of flavors as I expect chinese food to be.

Authentic Chinese food. Special Chef's menu, which changes frequently. Always surprised to find new dishes. Everything is excellent, comparable quality to the best Chinese restaurants in east and west coasts. The only downhill is the room decoration, which is kind of old and requires renovation.

Imperial Palace is a good old skool type sit down Chinese restaurant. It is everything an Americanized Chinese restaurant should be...cheesy decor, minimal English speaking staff and decent American menu. However, this place does have the "other" menu...and I've found the food to be superior on this menu, though it might be a bit too far out for the average Midwesterner's tastes. I would recommend the Salt and Pepper shrimp from that menu and from the American menu the Mu Shu pork is divine. All and all this is a good Lincoln mainstay restaurant and probably one of the better Asian restaurants in the city.

Princess delight and Mo Shu Chicken were great. A little bit pricier than expected $9.25 and $8.25, but great service and food came out quickly.

The Imperial Palace is your quintessential Chinese food joint - complete with sculpted red ceiling tiles, dangling paper lanterns, black-lacquered wall-hangings and ornate gold dragon decor. Granted, it is a bit rough around the edges (some dilapidated booths, and a big screen TV precariously balanced in one of the larger booth seats), and the parking lot is hard to get to but I enjoy it none-the-less. The husband and I have tried several dishes - the crab rangoon is always hot and fresh, and more than just cream cheese, the egg rolls are decent - the egg drop soup is run-of-the-mill, but not bad. I like the balance of their entrees - they avoid all of my regular annoyances with chinese food places. Their meat is cut and prepared in reasonable bite-size pieces, the sauces are not sickeningly sweet, nor nauseatingly salty - they are just right, and their sticky rice is the perfect stickiness for chopstick lovers. I even like their lo-mein noodles. Imperial Palace has become one of my favorite places, not because it is off-the-charts extraordinary cuisine, but because they have good food and they deliver every night from 5 to 9 - FAST! It says something when my crab rangoon arrives at my doorstep still steaming hot. I love not having to worry about dinner - that's almost worth an extra 'star' in my book. :)

I used to go here as a kid, and it was one of the best restaurants in town. We came here while visiting my mom, and we couldn't believe how far downhill it's gone. The beef in the broccoli beef was so chewy it was nasty. The potstickers were equally poor in consistency, though the flavor was ok. The one redeeming dish was the green beans. While my homemade recipe is better, they were decent. I haven't tried other Chinese restaurants in Lincoln, but I certainly won't be back to this one.

Ok, the "American Chinese" menu is standard, but the "Other" menu is unbelievable. Thebeef in hot oil is excellent, as is the ma pa dofu and the szechaun green beans. Truly excellent Chinese food for Nebraska. Also, the owner is very nice and gave us some szechuan peppercorns to take home. Highly recommended for real, good Chinese.
