Emily & I took my parents out to dinner since they didn't want Christmas presents from us. They also brought alone Uncle George & Auntie Rose for the small Christmas Eve dinner. The restaurants were packed. We got to Imperial Palace around 6pm and got one of the last tables left. During our whole meal, there was a huge line at the entrance.
Generally, the food is pretty good here. They really cook the food. Many other Chinese restaurants bring out their dishes ridiculously fast... so fast that they either cook in large bulks or microwave already cooked food. I boosted the rating up to 8 from my original post from last year. For more details, please visit the Picasa album.
I reduced the environment rating because of the way they laid out the tables. While Imperial Palace has nice decor and is pretty clean, the comfort factor is ruined by the stuffy arrangement of tables. If you're sitting down at a table, there will be someone sitting next to you at an adjacent table because the seating is too closely packed. The acoustics are terrible when the place is full. You won't be able to hear each other speak.
