Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal experiences and my personal experiences alone, so with that being said let's go!. This is the first time I actually ordered anything from here, but I have been here on a couple of other occasions with other people ordering from here for lunch and a dinner event. So I decided I would drop in and grab something off the menu because I didn't feel like cooking this particular evening. The food was cooked quickly and my wait time was about 10 minutes or so. The food was still nice and hot when I got home and was pretty good I might add. I ordered the house Lo mein. The only negative thing I would say that there was not nearly enough shrimp, chicken or pork, just a bunch of noodles! I would return again and try something different next time!. read more

This was a nasty nasty place and there was green beans on the table the lady in the green shirt was very rude to us rolling her eyes and shaking her head. read more

Best Chinese food in the area and they actually make it spicy when I ask for it. The Mongolian beef is a favorite of mine. Generous portion with plenty of beef and onions, good sauce. read more

Dragon city has the most amazing food when I want Chinese food. This is the only place I go now where else. and you get a lot for the money.

The vegetarian options are great. We particularly enjoy the home style tofu. The tofu is cooked perfectly. The General Tso's Tofu isn't particularly hot. I wish there was an option to request more heat. But it's still better than any tofu I can cook at home. read more

I ordered the Scallop with Mixed Vegetables & Kung Po Chicken. Both dishes tasted good. However, the scallop dish was a bit pricey considering how many scallops were actually in the dish. The ratio of vegetables to meat was off with most of the dish consisting of celery. With one pepper warning on the menu, my family that has no tolerance for spicy definitely thought it was spicy. However, if you have a decent tolerance than this dish isn't that spicy. read more

It doesn't matter how their food tastes. They have horrible customer service. I ordered to-go, on their website. Before I confirmed my order I found a coupon area on their site. I printed them off. I showed the delivery guy and he said I could only use it in the restaurant, even though it doesn't say that anywhere on the coupon. Fine, whatever. I was only trying to give the driver an extra dollar tip. So I called the restaurant to let them know what the website says and the lady that answered talked over me the ENTIRE time. Not once apologizing for the coupon being wrong on the website. All I wanted was an "I'm sorry" or for someone to check the website and say "hey, you're right. Let me change that". No. I just had someone yell at me and hang up on me when I asked to speak to a manager. I don't even care about the dollar. But goodness, the lady working Friday afternoon of 3/22 needs some customer service skills. She's lacking customer compassion. read more

They delivered fast but the chicken wings were fried so hard and I asked for shrimp fried rice with no onions and onions were in it. Egg rolls were extremely greasy.... read more

Don't do it food and customer service is crap! Over cooked greasy crap! Save your money and your taste for good Chinese because these people are horrid! ps...I had to give one star to post. read more

Poor customer service!! I ordered Chicken Egg Foo Young. I received Shrimp Egg Foo Young as a first patty and Chicken for the rest. I called before I went to the restaurant. I took the remaining Egg Foo Young as well as the receipt. The woman at the counter was not interested in my dilemma even though I told her my husband is highly allergic to shrimp. She argued with me about what can't happen and then told me she packed my order. I don't know how or why we had a shrimp patty, but we did. This could have been disastrous if I hadn't caught it. My husband had already told me there were too many kids working in the kitchen area. I won't be returning to this establishment. I spent too much money to be treated in a rude and hostile manner.Buyer beware and check your food!! read more

I ordered and they hung up on me mid phone call. When I called back, I had to call back, and when I did they knew who I was. So they don't care who ordered what. They tell me 15 minutes, then hang up. Without any other conversation. Then I call an hour later, and they yell at me for asking where my food is at. Telling me I should have just picked it up instead of ordering it for delivery. This was my first time ordering any delivery in 4 years. They have lost my service. read more

I've tried a few Chinese spots around Western Branch/Churchland area & this is the best by far. Its not drop dead amazing but compared to the lackluster competition in the area, this is relatively delicious. It was so good, I ordered two evenings in a row. For my family & I, I ordered broccoli cooked in garlic sauce, vegetable lo mein, wontons, general tso chicken, chicken lo mein, spring rolls & steamed dumplings. I didnt care too much for the wontons too much & I wouldn't order the dumplings again but everything was delicious. The lo mein was so good. I ordered them through Door Dash (i recommend) & both times it arrived very hot with plenty of condiments. My new go to Chinese spot. read more

After ordering it took an hour and 15 minutes to get our food when we did get our food the lady was very rude at the door even though I tipped her five dollars she insisted on counting the money before giving me the food then when I got the food it was cold and tasted like dirt the spring roll could've been used as a tennis ball not fit for a dog I called them back the lady was rude as all get out I told them their food tasted like crap and explained how nasty it was so she said we give money back we never serve you again so when they came back to pick up the food they literally snatched the bag out of my fiancé's hand I would never order that dog food again and I warn you not to read more

This is literally the only Chinese take-out that I go to in this area. The orders are always accurate and fast. I pretty much get the General Tso chicken every time and it's great! My husband has tried the orange chicken and boneless spare ribs which were really good as well. The last time we ate there the General Tso chicken was a little over cooked. The Kung Pao chicken was full of veggies and no meat (pics provided). read more

If I could give zero stars I would! Rude staff burnt greasy food. I don't know why they're still open.

Food was alright but the delivery lady kept antagonizing me to giver her a tip after I tipped 20% online . She was literally screaming at me . Need a new delivery person read more

Thought we'd give them a try. How disappointing to have over fried in old oil food. Even the crab Rangoon that my grandkids love they wouldn't eat. With an order over $70. They demanded a paper copy of their coupon. Maybe it's because my phone is not local prefix they thought to give us re-fried food. Please see the pictures. I asked if everything was in the bags. Sauces and fortune cookies. They demanded yes I had 8 well there were only 6 no napkins or chopsticks. I had to ask for a receipt. I'm used to good Chinese's this price point. Very disappointing I should've stuck with the other Chinese one and only or something like that; at least their food is fresh. read more

I've gotten takeout from here plenty of times .. the food is pretty good but I'm normally ordering for others. Tonight I picked up a called in order ...transaction went ok... the employees Must've been tired tonight or not feeling it because everyone was very short and transactional. I said hello when I walked in lol no response. A thanks after the cashier handed me my credit card receipt back .. no response. I turned around with my daughter to leave and a employee is putting a caution wet floor sign out directly in the middle of the doorway lol. I cannot make this up. So I have food in hand purse and a wiggling toddler navigating my way out of this obstacle course. Okaaay you guys need to be a lot nicer to your customers that choose to spend money at your establishment .... even if you can't speak a language (or choose not to) people skills are universal. You definitely loss a customer tonight. Yes read more

Love the food and great delivery drivers. I order every week. It is cheap Chinese, but its really good cheap Chinese.

This is the closest to NY Chinese restaurant I've had in the area. It's clean and they deliver. Not much to say because it's Chinese food just the usual but more tasty! read more

YES!!!! After trial and error living in the western branch area I found an amazing Chinese food place!!!!! The Generals Tso's chicken is so crispy and on point it's insane. NOT fatty at all and perfection. Plenty of sauce and not overloaded with random veggies to skimp on meat. I got smalls of Gen Tso's, hot and spicy beef, Szechuan chicken, boneless spare ribs, plain lo mein. They do not by any means under pack them! I'm so glad I got smalls because they pack as much food in each container as they can! The hot and spicy beef, honestly, could've been spicier BUT i understand that not all people like a lot of spicy so thats why I always keep chili garlic sauce at home. Other than the spice, it was fantastic! Truly, great strips of beef, not at all chewy or fatty. Plenty of sauce and the veggies cooked to tender-crunchy greatness. I'll be posting pictures for proof. Seriously never ordering any other Chinese food from western branch area besides Dragon city. Trust me I've tried MANY with great dissatisfaction. Needless to say, I am very pleased. read more

I got a menu to this place on my doorstep when I got home from work one day. As soon as I noticed they delivered, I was on board. I have to say, it's a pretty solid Chinese delivery place. They offer both egg rolls and spring rolls. They have a pretty varied menu and offer different platters as well as lunch specials. Their delivery was pretty fast (got my food on a Friday night in a half hour!). My only annoyance was that they messed up my order slightly (asked for white rice not fried rice, and got fried rice anyway). Regardless, I'll be ordering from here in the future. They deliver to the whole Churchland area, and possibly parts of Portsmouth and Suffolk as well. Try the house lo mein, it was pretty awesome! read more

It's good but they take too long when you place your order there in the store. They also need to work on their customer service skills - everyone is not treated the same . I will just leave it at that . read more

Good an always consistently good. Very friendly and best takeout or delivery Chinese food in Churchland area

I love this place. I especially love that you can order online. The only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is the attitudes from the workers. Sometimes they are very happy when you walk in and others they act like they are to busy to take or give you your order. Other than the employees the food is great which keeps me coming back for more. read more

This was my first time trying this restaurant. I am home sick and saw that they do deliveries so thought I would give them a try. I was very pleased. The food was all very good and the delivery was fast, all the food was hot, and my order 100% accurate. The food I ordered was more traditional Chinese take out, none of the dishes were super creative but all were solidly prepared. I used their only order process and it was fast and easy. The pricing was good for the amount and quality of the food. read more

Curry shrimp was full of onions! I mean a lot of onions!! It wasn't horrible, but I will never order curry anything from another chinese restaurant. That was my fault for being lazy and not getting Jamaican. Thank God I got a small! read more

Had catering order delivered for home owners association. Food was excellent and plentiful, ordered $200.00 worth of food. Will definitely order from them in the future or just go there for individual meal. read more

I ordered the General tso chicken with chicken lo mein and it was the best I've had in 9 yrs during my stay in Va. I highly recommend this Chinese restaurant. You won't be disappointed. read more

Seriously some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had. The rice was stale and tasted like it had sat in the refrigerator all week. The lo mien was a weird dark brown and not very good at all. The only good thing was they delivered but aside from that I would not recommend anyone to eat here. The chicken had no flavor and orange chicken is supposed to be flavorful. Neither one of us took more than a couple bites and decided no dinner was better than continuing to consume that meal. For $30 and everything to be a disappointment I just don't know how they stay in business. I don't think I have superbly high standards but I will not ever order Chinese from this place again. read more

Just wasn't that impressed by this food. On the plus side, our take out stayed hot after a 15 minute drive home. General Tso's was ok, nice flavor but a little overcooked. Chicken wings were okay, too; note that they were already cooked then dropped in grease again before serving. The wings didn't have much in the way of flavor but weren't the worst I ever had. All in all, this place will be a one and done. read more

One of my favorite Chinese take out restaurants. Most Chinese places I've gone to don't have a lot of veggies, but dragon has quite a bit. By far the best wonton soup I've ever had. They're very quick and super nice. read more

FRESH takeout. Went in at 10:30 PM, they closed at 11 it was so fresh. The best takeout I've ever had. Definitely worth the drive if it isn't close. I had hot and spicy beef with pork fried rice. read more

Just okay. Dumplings were good, as were the egg rolls, but husband's meal was overcooked and mine (scallops w vegetables) didn't have a lot of flavor (in the sauce) and there was like 4 scallops. Food was ready when promised. read more

We ordered two combos, (Chicken and a lo mein) and the crab ragoons. The food was pretty good. The rice tasted a little stale but honestly not that bad. The lo mein was excellent. The crab ragoons didn't have much crab, but I'm not real picky on those. Delivery was fast and the delivery driver was a sweet older guy so that was nice. Overall, I'd say it was a good choice and we will be ordering here again. read more

Tried a bunch of different Chinese places around Churchland and this is definitely the tastiest.

Yeah. They don't even deliver 15 minutes out. I placed an online order, got a confirmation number. That's it. No estimate time of arrival no nothing just order number. Waited an hour and a half hoping it would get here. Had to call them, give them the order number, couldn't find it. they gave me the excuse that their system was acting up. Give them my address and then they said oh we got your order we just couldn't reach you, your number was busy. Bull crap! Then they tell me they don't deliver that far out. It's 15 minutes WTF read more

When you see this place, it is hard to believe that we ave 4 stars. Yes, it is a whole in the wall off the strip mall. Family owned restaurant and it is quite good. Give a try. read more

Any one in the Western branch ches. or Portsmouth area of VA needs to try this food! There are several Chinese restaurants in the area but none of them are close to as good as Dragon city. Their food is always hot and fresh and the flavors are great! I could eat there everyday and not get tired of them. read more

Absolutely the best Chinese takeout my wife and I have had. I constantly recommend this place to all of my friends and colleagues. If you're thinking about Chinese food you must eat here. read more
