Unbelievable how they pass their dishes off as per their PICTURED PLATES. The Roasted Turkey plate was a joke, with just 6, 1 inch pieces of turkey. I did taste good and not dry, BUT nothing like the Photo they post. The TEXAS TOAST was literally 2 PIECES of regular sized WHITE BREAD (like in a loaf of Wonder Bread) lightly buttered with garlic. The Spicy Cole Slaw was fresh and good, but far from spicy and not one peanut. The beans were good. We used to eat at the Armadillo's in Santa Clara that closed and we're so excited to read all about Empire claiming to have the same standards as Armadillo Willeys. I paid a lot of money for my order and will never patronize Empire again. My suggestion when there is a delivery order, treat it as the same as dining in, no speedy shortcuts or thinking we don't expect our ORDERS to be like the PHOTO you use to represent your products.
One question I have that really bothers me, what is your definition of TEXAS TOAST? Seriously I'd like to know?

This place is freaking so tasty. Everything was good. I have ate there 3 times since they opened with my family. The St. Louis ribs are perfect.The mac n cheese is bomb. The cornbread and peanut slaw is good and those brownies they make are irresistible. Highly recommend.

The bar-b-q is the best in town, absolutely delicious. The onion rings are crispy and the order was huge. We're very happy with the quality and quantity of food. Great place.

I've had their take out once before and it was okay. This time, I felt like it was a very small portion for the price. If it was really high quality I may understand, but it was very dry, to the point of having to tear at it for a few second before getting the bite of meat out of it. I would've felt robbed to pay $5-$20 for the plate, but nearly $30 for that quality was quite disappointing.
