SCAM- DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!! I used to order from here years ago but the quality and service are exponentially worse now. I ordered a boneless spare ribs combo today and I received a container of 90% rice. When I called the restaurant to ask if this was a mistake (since my friend’s food had a reasonable amount of rice/meat), the guy on the phone said “our customers know that when you order this, it comes with mostly rice because it doesn’t have vegetables and it’s hard to make. You have to order the large to get more meat and even then, it’s not a lot because it’s expensive.” Essentially, he told me that’s just how it is and basically blamed me for not knowing. I used to love ordering from here, so I was super disappointed that this happened.

Could be five stars if their portions would better.… I’m sure the usual customers agree. Food isn’t that

Typical Chinese restaurant. Dine in is nothing much but ordering it, they cook the classics well. Pretty authentic food for the capital region in general

Crab ragoons had absolutely no flavor or crab. Worst ragoons i’ve ever had. Seasame Chicken was mediocre. I can see why they have average reviews here… because the food is average chinese. Not worth the money in my opinion.

I Do NOT recommend Dragon City for take out, in fact go ANYWHERE else !! Portions were tiny and the food was so over cooked that most of it went in the trash. Missing part of the order when we got home but not worth the drive back....sadly disappointed. Mr Fuji, spot on...Gold Coin...perfect, Dragon City -1 star if I could.

I ordered Sautéed String Beans, which is listed under the vegetable category and they came with small chunks of chicken or pork in it. Please be more mindful of what you are making and be sure to clean the pans before use.

Not good. First off they can't read special instructions. Asked for extra spicy mustard packets, chopsticks and a spoon on each order. I managed, I travel for work and I had an arsenal of untensils and condiments. Wonton egg drop soup Greasy, almost no egg and completely tasteless. Just wasn't good. Fried dumplings Not cooked with any sort of oil. Cooked to crap on one side, raw on the other side and disappointing all around. The dough was way too thick. Broccoli beef This was actually taste. Had great heat. Was really greasy. Once a month I make this exact same order. This was just really disappointing.

The food smelled peculiar. funky smell? Definitely could not eat the meal, not worth the money. Served my friends pieces of tissue in their meal. ew. Terrible customer service!!! Storytime: Manager said and I quote "I DON'T GIVE A F U C K " when I told him that he put pork in my meal. As a MUSLIM I would NEVER and will NEVER eat pork, bffr.

Ordered a large sweet n sour. Chicken was cold and could of been popcorn chicken. Also came with a container of sauce way to small for a large. Ordered sesame chicken combo plate. Again sesame chicken was cold and the rice was cold no season really and was slightly crunchy. Absolutely horrible. Worst Chinese place ever. Ill stick with my normal place next time.

Let me start by saying is that this food is definitely better than what I am rating it, I just had something with it that was inedible. I ordered some Crab Rangoons, and a combination platter of General Tso's which came with Fried Rice and an Egg Roll. The General Tso's chicken was actually pretty impressive. The sauce was very tasty and it actually had some good heat to it. It came with a few bell peppers in it and they tasted incredibly fresh. The chicken quality was pretty good, but similar to what you would get from other Chinese restaurants. The fried rice was great, not the normal yellow rice from most other local Chinese places around the area, it was brown and have a much better flavor. It was great with the chicken. The Egg Roll was decent but had some oil on the outside of it. Now the issue... The Crab Rangoons were inedible. By the time the food got brought back to the house, the bag they came in were basically see through. Once I put the bag down on my table my hand was covered in oil. I tried one of them and there was absolutely no crunch and I felt the oil come out of the Rangoon when I took a bite. They were absolutely horrendous. This place is worth giving a shot, but understand there is a good chance the food could have some big issues.

This place is not recommended. Some of the worst Chinese I've had. Got sesame and general tso chicken. Sauce was too thick, tasted like cleaning solution, and the chicken was gamey. Honestly didn't taste like chicken at all. The parking lot is also really hard to drive into. They also reversed the bill charge was supposed to be 46.49, they charged me 49.46. Called ahead to ensure order was ready before driving over, person on phone was short and rude. Egg rolls are small as well on the combination plates. I hate leaving negative reviews but this was an all around bad experience, I would avoid at all costs. There is far better Chinese like ten minutes down the road. Do yourself a favor, take the drive.
