Ristorante Imperiale...cucina cinese aperto anche a mezzogiorno

We had the pleasure of dining on a Friday evening at the charming Ristorante Cinese Imperiale in Masone, located in the province of Reggio Emilia. Already from the outside, the restaurant captures the attention with its scenographic presentation: the entrance is adorned with a typical Chinese paifang door and elegant decorated wooden entrance doors. Once you cross the threshold, you are completely immersed in the authentic Chinese atmosphere: the environment is mainly furnished in wood, with enormous carved paintings depicting dragons and other typical Asian icons hanging on the walls. The lighting is masterfully curated, with decorated chandeliers and Chinese drapes that create an enchanted atmosphere. Particularly suggestive is the glass floor area, under which there is a splendidly lit fish tank, which contributes to creating a unique and suggestive atmosphere. Once seated at our table, we ordered seafood soup, characterized by fresh and well-mixed ingredients, which won us over with its authentic flavor, and steamed shrimp ravioli which were another delight: freshly prepared with a dough with the perfect consistency and a tasty filling that enhanced the flavor of the shrimp. Then some soy spaghetti with seafood alla pista which turned out to be truly excellent, enriched with a cream that made them deliciously creamy. For second course, shrimp in foil which stood out for their particular cooking that made them tender and full of flavor, while the seafood casserole was a perfect combination of flavors, with a generous portion of very fresh ingredients. The fried frogs were a pleasant surprise: crispy and well-cooked, with tender and succulent internal meat that would have won over even the most demanding palates. The service was quick, attentive and extremely courteous. If you are looking for a restaurant with an authentic Chinese atmosphere, Imperiale is the perfect choice for you. The evocative setting marries perfectly with high quality food, making this place absolutely not to be missed.

For me, a Chinese restaurant should be like this, the traditional one from the days when they arrived in Italy with an aquarium under their feet! Good dishes, cooked according to tradition, the flavors are unique.

The facade of the restaurant is decorated in Chinese traditions. The entrance is decorated with two statues. The interior of the restaurant is made in Chinese style. Carved dragons and various patterns on the wooden walls are simply mesmerizing. But the special highlight of this establishment, I consider the floor aquarium. Watching the fish swim in the water under your feet, you immediately want to look at all the underwater inhabitants. Children especially like the aquarium! You can also taste Japanese dishes in the establishment. The dishes are very tasty, aesthetically pleasing. The staff is polite and kind, speaks Italian. Thank you for the delicious cuisine and unforgettable impressions! The facade of the restaurant is decorated according to Chinese tradition. The entrance is decorated with two statues.

Considero l'acquario da terra un punto culminante speciale di questa structure. You can also try Japanese piatti. And piatti sono molto gustosi, esteticamente gradevoli. Il personale è gentile e cordiale, parla italiano Grazie per la diliziosa cucina e le experiencie indimenticabili!

We tried this restaurant by chance, and ate the all-you-can-eat menu. The dishes were tasty and the portions were adequate. The prices were average, like the others. A double menu with Chinese and Japanese options is available.

Historic restaurant, with a floor-level tank full of Kobe carp, truly spectacular. Despite the changes in management, the prices and quality remain excellent and unchanged. I'd say it's the best in the area.

The place is beautiful, typical Chinese, the food is excellent and plentiful, the menu is very varied, I recommend it

Chinese and Japanese cuisine, wide choice on the menu, always kind and helpful staff. The floor of the central room is very particular, covered by glass, an aquarium with carp and miniature reproductions of Chinese pagodas.

Classic Chinese restaurant (they also have a Japanese menu) with a beautiful setting and good food. Very good!

On the outskirts of Reggio Emilia, between warehouses and plowed fields, you will find this restaurant serving Chinese and Japanese cuisine. From the entrance you can already breathe in the air of the Far East, the traditional Chinese lanterns, the imperial lions, the pagoda roof... The interior is a space-time journey from Emilia to China: the floor aquarium is very fun, the chandeliers are beautiful. The food (I only tried the Chinese) is very very good, quality ingredients and attention to detail in the menu. You feel good between the various courses, the background music and the kindness of the staff. You pay the right amount and when you leave and return to Italy you already want to return. Highly recommended!

Beautiful atmosphere, a restaurant from another era that has survived all these all-you-can-eat sushi joints. Very kind owners Very good food I recommend it to anyone looking for an immersive experience.

Incredibly beautiful place... I'm not ashamed to say that it's the first Chinese that gave me the idea of ​​"healthy", I ate duck in a really good spicy sauce, crunchy just right, with cashews and peppers. For those who complain about the price.... how can you complain, a second course costs €5... but what do you want for less?!

I've always liked it. Great food
