The Imperial Treasure

Excited to have a restaurant here in CLT that offers dim sum. To preface, heard from family and friends that the service was not up to par when they recently came to try them out but this time around everything came out fast and efficient. Our server Taylor was great and made our experience better. When I say, everything we tried was delicious... I liked everything that came out. The king shrimp shumai is definitely a favorite of mine. We ordered spicy dumplings, soup dumplings, chicken feet, spare ribs, and a full order of the roasted duck. The duck entree came with another dish that was highly recommended, as well as some scallion pancake 'wraps'. These can be eaten and wrapped with the duck. It comes with a side of julienne cut cucumbers and green onions (scallions). As well as sauce (hoisin). This was actually quite tasty with the duck, even though I've never ate with it before. To end dinner, we tried the chocolate dumpling dessert which oozed of rich, decadent chocolate.

The Imperial Treasure is a great Dim Sum spot! On my first visit, the table tried the salt and pepper tofu, spicy wontons, and pork soup dumplings. The tofu was delicious, light, and paired well with a little of the table soy sauce and chili oil. The spicy wontons had great flavor and texture, but the pork soup dumplings were perfect. Great texture and ratio of meat to broth plus the dipping sauce was a great addition. I will come back for those alone.Not pictured was the vegetable lo mein - tasty but nothing special.

This restaurant has a lot of promises and hopes for the Authentic Chinese Food scene in Charlotte. When it was open, it had mixed reviews. A lot of the bad reviews are usually, they went out of items or waiting for too long. Well guys it is opening time, they are not going to be perfect. This review is mix of three times that I went.First this place is pretty, the decor is awesome. They have some round tables for big families and looks like private room for party. It has a very welcoming feel. Also they have great choice on their dishes, plates, and cups. It looks great and made with plastic that it is easy to pick up to share food. Then the services also amazing, the last three times that I was there, the service was excellent, the staff cares about their job and talks to everyone very nicely. I also like that they have iPad to put in the order, makes it fast and simple.The food also tastes excellent. I enjoyed their Soup dumplings and mostly their Dim Sum dishes. One of the times that I went here was during the Christmas holiday, they were really busy, I can tell that the restaurant didn't have enough time to marinate the meat, if it was marinated longer it would has better taste. Lastly I made reservations for this place two times, both times it was on point and the front desk staff took great care of us.Overall great experience, I think it has room for improvement for better taste. Looking forward to come back again

SOOOOO GOOD! Another Asian restaurant that is spot on in the CLT area. Dang that dim sum was out of this world!!! The beef chow fun came recommended, and it was delish. The shrimp with vegetables and chicken fried rice were also great dishes to share. I of course loved the spicy sauces available at the table and didn't have to ask for anything extra. I would most likely come back for that dim sum and hot jasmine tea. Lots of space inside and nicely decorated.

I am so happy to be able to update this review to a 5 stars. We went back Saturday afternoon so I could try Pork Congee with Century egg that I could t order last time. We ordered house special fried rice, fried green beans, pork char sieu steam buns, pork soup dumplings, and shrimp Hargow. All were delicious.The best improvement was service. Tom, our server was attentive and friendly. Our foods came out promptly and I'm looking forward to adding this restaurant to our regular night out rotation for Matthews.

I had such a great experience here! The place was really clean and had a nice vibe. The service was awesome--super friendly and attentive, which made the visit even better.The food was really good and full of flavor. My favorites were the soup dumplings (so tasty!), the cauliflower, and the green beans. Everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right.Overall, it's a solid spot for good food and great service. I'll definitely be coming back to try more!

My Son and I were able to check this place out on a chilly January Saturday morning. They open at 10a and we were there when they opened.We've both eaten a fair amount of Dim Sum across the US in major cities like Manhattan, LA & San Francisco. We were very pleased with the food quality, ambience and service. It's quite impressive when you can say you recruited two different Chinese Dim Sum chefs from Manhattan restaurants. We had the Char su Bar, Shrimp Shu Mai, Har Now, Char su Pork and the Pork Ribs. We also split a serving of chicken fried rice and shared some Jasmine hot tea.We both agreed the Shrimp Shu Mai was our favorite and lease favorite was the Pork Ribs. Sadly the hot Jasmine tea was not even hot which was disappointing.They don't serve any type of diet sodas.The staff was all very nice and accommodating and the service was great.The dining room is open and airy, very bright and clean.Maybe a little on the pricey side but not exbortant for what you get, the portion sizes were all good.I thought it was good they orders were taken with an iPad so they go right to the kitchen and so easy to check out using their POS system.It's a bit of a drive from Fort Mill, SC about 25 miles so it's a haul we would not normally take.The one element that was missing and we knew going in they do NOT offer the Dim Sum cart service. We both agreed it does detract from the authentic dim sum cart experience in the traditional Cantonese for of service. It's great that Charlotte Metro is growing, there is an ever larger Asian population and many people in general who are moving into the area that are familiar with Dim Sum and like it so there are more of these type of restaurants emerging.

Yum!! A delicious dim sum in Charlotte? I've been waiting for years.We came in and there were about 6 parties ahead of us. We did ask to sit at the bar and we got seated soon after! It's not the cart style dim sum that I've been used to growing up in Vegas, but you order from the menu and they make it all to order. The place is so clean and smells great. Bathroom is also clean! The food was all delicious! It took a bit to come out, but if they're making them all fresh, I'm okay with this!We got the green beans, pork steamed buns, pork soup dumpling, shrimp shu mai, shrimp rice long noodle (I can't remember the name!), beef in black bean, and sesame balls.7 dishes for less than $80!Everything was delicious. Stand outs were the green beans, soup dumplings, and the sesame balls. When I ordered the sesame balls, our server said "these are my favorite too!"They were HOT and soooo flavorful. I can't wait to come back

Stumbled upon this place after grocery shopping at costco and I am so happy we did. My boyfriend who is Chinese enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. Our server Tom was outstanding. He only works weekends and we are making it a point to only come when he is working! 10/10 would recommend.

Good food, great service! My family enjoyed dim sum here. Beautiful decorations to add to a great ambiance.
