Excellent food and service. Large portions. Took most home. Ordered sweet and sour pork lunch special with side of house special egg foo young. The egg foo young was huge and some of the best I’ve ever had. I was told they might bring back their buffet in a couple of months.

The buffet closes at 8:00pm on weekdays. Menu dine-in closes at 9:30 pm. Hopefully this will solve some of the confusion.

Empire village has been my new local favorite since I moved out this way. The portions are generous and when I have it to go it is always hot and fresh. Flavors are really good. I recommend the general tso chicken and lo mein. Appetizers are what you'd expect from any good Chinese restaurant. I think any fan of Chinese should stop by at least one time and check out the buffet.

Sad I only got to eat here one night. The buffet was probably the best buffet I'll ever eat again. Almost took the detour going from Leominster to Boston though Worcester, just to eat here one more time before I flew home. I cant wait to go back.
