"This is by FAR, my personal favorite in DT Norfolk. It doesn't hurt that I cam walk here from home. The food is very good, desserts EXCEPTIONAL!! If happen upon this place and ANY KIND of cake is available, ORDER IT! You will not be dissapointed. This place fills up quickly, so I'm there only on weekedays. Besides, I like the weekday bartender better than the one in the weekends. Tapas concept in general is a rip-off, but all things considered, this place is awesome!!! Oh! Only place that has Crispin on tap in the area!!"

yummy snack in the empire. I do not enjoy the annoyed thunfish, but that was the only contempt of the meal. the prosciutto wrapped spade is great. Cheese plate was wonderful. seaweed salat is always a good bet. great scotch selection also! highly recommended!

Delicious. On Mar. 26 we enjoyed an amazing dinner of various dishes that were executed with skill and deftness. Each small dish was executed well and the components created a symphony of flavors. Try the spicy sugar snap peas which start with some heat but mellow at just he right time. We have been to fine dining restaurants around the country and confidently put Empire against any.
