I was very impressed with my recent delivery from Dragon Buffet Restaurant. I ordered directly through the restaurant—not through SkipTheDishes or Uber Eats—and that made all the difference.
The food arrived piping hot, hotter than it would’ve been coming out of my own oven. Some might say that kind of heat could only come from a microwave, but this was clearly fresh and perfectly timed. Delivery only took 30 minutes—fast and efficient!
I ordered the Dinner for Three: Shanghai noodles, chicken fried rice, and beef satay. What a beautiful meal! Everything was fresh, flavourful, and reminded me why I love Chinese food. It honestly reignited my appreciation for it.
The delivery driver also accepted cash, which is a rare convenience these days. Not only did he bring the exact change I requested, but he was also polite and professional. I gave a generous tip, and the entire experience felt like a restaurant actually caring about its customer.
I won’t be ordering Chinese from anywhere else. Highly recommended!

Ok here is the truth.......this is a different kind of buffet. Don't think this is typical. It is worth the money just know it's they will cook to order your buffet. The service is way beyond what you get anywhere else. It's as if you are in a time machine and you're in a joint that gives a s..... about how customers feel. It's simple Asian food nothing crazy worth the price they charge and the service together will make you want to come back. The reason why some of the reviews say it does not have the same taste as other places is because of the massive MSG and other stuff the other restaurants mask their food with. This is clean simple good dishes that don't overpower with salt and MSG.

The place is nice. 1st batch of food was tough as it had sat, 2nd batch better but very sweet

The experience was not pleasant. The food was bland it just wasn't your ordinary chinese food to satisfy your craving at all. I'd think twice before going. But if you want to find out for yourself that's up to you.

Very small/limited buffet options and overcooked. Not good for someone who is on the fence about Chinese food as there is no other options (like fries or onion rings) like other buffets offer

The buffet is far too expensive for the selection and quality of the food.

I rarely complain about food but I was very disappointed; buffet pans had very low quantities and what was there was barely warm; the service was okay and accommodating but it seemed strange I had to request many pans to be refilled or replaced with fresh hot food.

The worst Chinese buffet I’ve ever been to.. rock hard chicken balls and everything else tasted the same.. like a strong vinegar taste .. the battered shrimp were okay and fresh and the ice cream was good.. the fried rice wasn’t too bad .. the rest was inedible .. $25 a person and I’m starving 😩

Nice, quiet little spot to enjoy excellent Chinese food. Will be going again!
No service as we arrived at 11:30, doors were locked nobody answered the phone eventhough it stated they opened at 11 even on the door.

The buffet was not good. From the selection to the food itself. For what we paid we would expect a lot more. The selection was meager and not very good. Their was barely anything in the containers, and they weren't refilled. What was there was cold. We didn't order off the menu, so I can't speak for that, but I would not go back again.

Best place in all of Edmonton. Not a single thing wrong with anything I had. I will be back for sure. 5/5 stars!!! And it’s family run so it feels good to support that over chains!!!! Great place. Highly recommend
Not a bad joint. Food is better than Shanghai Shanghai. Buffet is only certain days. Service is quick and food tastes really good. Prices are reasonable.
