Love the Empire. I've been going to the Empire for years. I love the food and the ambience. The chicken soup is to die for. This place has a sense of humor and look sharp -- you can often spot celebs.

Overpriced and horribly over Rated. This place is not even worth getting off the train for. The eggs are runny, the steak is almost possible to chew, etc. The only good thing about this place is the decor.

Service sucks. It's hard to find a place with outdoor seating in NYC--and this one is a block away from my front door--but twice I have experienced bad service from the snotty glam guys who moonlight as waiters. If the food was good enough, I might bite my tongue and return, but its not. Don't bother.
