Comment: Excellent Peking Duck. Sliced, off the bone, which was really nice for a change. Not a fan of having to deal with the carcass. Made dining much more pleasurable. Excellent sides.

Comment: We went to this restaurant because we had been there regularly before and were happy with the meal. We had the Peking Duck with two courses and did not realise that the second dish was mainly carcass and duck bones . Do not recommend taking the second dish with the duck.
Restaurant was full and the service was just just ok - no water served on the table.

Comment: After 20+ years of being a regular customer I have noticed a change of customer service. The team seem to be very rude these days. I’m sure the food is still good but I will not be giving EG any more business and nor will my friends!

Comment: Fantastic dishes, we had six or so different ones, Peking duck especially. Dishes came out very quickly too. Place could do with a lick of paint.

Comment: Went there last night with 3 of my friends and 1 was late, after we ordered 4 dishes with the waitress/owner, she asked me whether we want the meal to be served now or wait for my other friend, of cause i said please wait till my last friend arrived, then the food suddenly served, I told the waiter(male) that my friend has not arrived yet, then the waitress/owner walked out, at the end I let them leave it on my table. We ordered 4 dishes and only 3 arrived, we finished all 3 dishes already and asked the waitress/owner that the last dish has not arrived/ made then please cancel it, first instance response was "It ii already in the process of making it right now in the kitchen", I said NO!!, go and check now, I was standing outside the kitchen and heard their conversation between herself and the chef, they have missed the order and adv customer wants to cancel, after 4 mins, the dish came to my table, i told waitress/owner, we have cancelled it already, she said it was being made already and all ingredients were prepared which just need to toss in the wok, i replied i own restaurant too, do not give me this non sense, waitress/owner said: "it is not a problem, i will take it home and eat myself", just to push all responsibility to us, seriously, if you make a mistake then admit it, seriously, not going back again, your restaurant might be popular but the way you do business is dishonest.

Comment: My go-to spot for Peking Duck in Auckland. Empress Garden has always been a standout for its fast service, large portions and delicious food. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu and the servers are always willing to give suggestions.
Minus one star as it can get quite loud from general chatter in the room.

There really is no better. Thick fatty cuts of duck. It doesn’t get better than this.
A must if you feel like Peking Duck and something fatty and juicy.
Great for dates, hangovers, and predrinking dinners!

Comment: Food is decent. Service is good. But price is on the high side and for that price, unfortunately there are plenty of more reasonably priced comparable options around in Auckland these days. Empress Garden used to be a famous restaurant but over the years as more and more restaurants open, there are just much more other options to go to instead.

Comment: So roused was I by the Empress Garden's peking duck, that I now sit to write my first Google review. You could get no greater duck for the price (and I have lived in Beijing), the sweet and sour pork was fresh and crispy, and the dumplings were obviously handmade and delicious. Excellent, kind service. Go no further for duck pancake delights!

Comment: After eating here just once it became my new favourite restaurant to go to. I always get their deep fried beancurd with salt, pepper and chilli, and I can easily say it is the best I have ever had (Deep fried tofu is my usual dish when eating out). My partner gets the BBQ pork fried rice and she absolute loves it.
Along with their stellar food, the service is super friendly and accomodating. Strongly recommend trying this place out, you'll definitely find a dish you'll fall in love with.
