The food here is so good. I got the angus beef and broccolini, and it was delecious. The broccolini wasn't mushy, but wasn't too hard either. A pleasant crunch, but still enjoyably soft. Same with the carrots. The beef melts in your mouth, and the saucy is beefy, without being over powering. Good combo. Here is what my friend has to say about their lo mein: The noodles are the perfect texture! The veggies are cooked so nicely and the sauce is the best finish! read more

Food is literally so good so good! We ordered 5 dishes for us two, but we finished them all up! 10/10 recommended! And the service woman is so sweet! read more

I stopped by hoping to grab lunch but unfortunately they don't open until 5pm. So bummed, I parked in a designated spot for Fat Dragon and walked to the Baskin Robbin's in the same lot. When I returned in 5 minutes, a person who I assume was an owner began yelling at me. He yelled and asked if I read the sign. I told him they were closed but that it was my mistake for taking up the spot but he continued yelling to the point he began cussing. He got close to me and continued yelling and at that point I told him if he got closer there would be a much bigger problem than a parking spot. The man continued yelling but backed away and left me alone. Needless to say to say, I won't be back. But the cappuccino blast from Baskin Robbin's almost made this experience worth it. Fat Dragon has decent food but not worth putting up with that much yelling. Guess Fat Dragon skimped on the customer service part of the training. read more

Fat Dragon really missed the mark with the strawberry sweet rice drink I tried at the Family Style food festival. It was honestly one of the worst drinks I have ever had. Instead of tasting sweet or refreshing, it came across like a strange alcohol seltzer with rice, except without the alcohol. I could not taste any strawberry at all, and it did not resemble the "sikhye" flavor it was supposed to have either. It ended up tasting like plain sparkling water with some rice mixed in, completely lacking in flavor. I want to believe my drink was just made incorrectly because it was such a letdown, but as it was, it did not work at all. I cannot speak on the food, but this particular drink was a big disappointment. read more

THEE BEST Orange Chicken in Los Angeles?! No Orange Chicken has this much white meat, every bite is so hearty. Most Orange Chickens are 60-70% batter. This is damn near 10% batter, 90% white meat. #ProTip: If you order it for delivery or to go, make sure to transfer it to another bowl at home. All the sauce is at the bottom of the carton; you gotta flip it into another bowl and mix it. Game. Changer. Fried Rice is delicious too. I love the dark color...that's how I like my fried rice, don't be shy with the soy sauce. The big bright vegetables compliment it well. The Fried Rice with Chinese Sausage with the little bits of Pineapple is also fire. This place doesn't miss. And best of all, it tastes the same every. single. time. read more

Not doubt one of my favorite Chinese place in Los Angeles.

Found this just around the corner from a friend's place and decided to give it a try. So glad we did. I got Kung Pao Chicken, friend got Moo Go Gi Pan. Both are really darn good; Super generous portions! The people are kind and fantastic. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area. read more

YUMM! I have been wanting to find a great Chinese spot that has good vegan options and I have found it!! I ordered the lo mien noodles, the orange tofu and the egg rolls and they all are delicious! Seriously, you can't go wrong here! It was ready for pick up within 20 mins of ordering, plenty of parking in the lot, friendly service, lots of space inside and suuuuper tasty food! I am already wanting to go back and try something else! read more

We got the orange tofu, dragon noodles and mushroom fries. It was our favorite takeout and it's even better dining in.

Never misses great prices, great food and portions, staff is nice every time. It's a great neighborhood spot

Great food and even greater service!! Huge shoutout to Eric for helping me and my boyfriend modify our meals with our dietary restrictions. He was so helpful and patient. The food was great too!! I can only speak to the chicken chow fun, but it was delish. Vibe in there is very casual. Parking is easy in that strip mall. Will return! read more

Fat Dragon - Chow fun - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

tried Fat Dragon's lo mein, and honestly, it wasn't great. The noodles were a bit soggy, and the sauce lacked flavor--definitely not the satisfying, savory dish I was hoping for. Portion size was okay, but it didn't make up for the bland taste. Service was fine, but the food itself left a lot to be desired. Not sure I'd come back for lo mein, maybe other dishes are better. read more

4.5 Always great service. Food ready when I order via Yelp/Grubhub. Spicy on point. Price a little more than some, but their food does have quality ingredients. Today was salty though; please don't go too salty like so many other Asian spots. Please don't start w MSG. I have been going here since they opened. Yum! read more

What happened to the orange chicken? It used to be saucy and syrupy and the pieces of chicken had a slightly crispy texture. Soooo delicious! Now it's kind of dry-where's the sauce? Why does the chicken have more of a baked texture? This is the 3rd time I've noticed the change, thinking it may just be an off batch. Fat Dragon please go back to the old recipe. read more

Inhumane and gross not to have either a bathroom for dine-in customers or a working relationship with a neighbor who does. Be so serious. If you're a window, just be a window. read more

Service is very friendly here and the food is solid. I usually order the chicken lo mein and it is tasty. The tea selection is good. Not sure why but the orange chicken wings were on the takeout menu but I didn't see them on the regular menu. I enjoyed them and think they should be a regular item. The egg rolls have been hit or miss. I prefer takeout v. dine-in because the restaurant is usually really chilly and they don't have a bathroom. All in all, I like this place and will probably be back for the noodles. read more

YUM! My partner and I were looking for some good takeout Chinese food. We got the dragon noodles, steak & mushrooms, and pork wontons. Everything was very tasty, and it was ready pretty quickly on a Saturday night. The best part was that the staff offered us their homemade chili sauce, and when they saw how excited we were, they offered us extra!!! For free! We go to another takeout spot by us that literally refuses to give us the sauce displayed on the tables. Even though the other spot is closer, we will be coming back here instead because of the impeccable service. The little things really go a long way. read more

Tonight I was craving lo mein, but not in the usual plastic black bottom container with the clear top. I really wanted the OG Chinese takeout box (like in the movies!). I hadn't seen those boxes in maybe 10 years. I ordered lo mein from Fat dragon for the first time and voila... old fashioned takeout box!!! The lo mein is DELICIOUS! Great veggies with Chinese broccoli. The noodles aren't too greasy. I found my new go-to Chinese spot! read more

Ordered the shrimp fried rice, but this literally looks like white rice tossed in egg yolks. I've never seen fried rice like this, they basically sold me white rice for $16! I definitely wouldn't order this again. I've also had their orange chicken a few times, and the chicken is always dry with little sauce. read more

The best Chinese food in the area hands down . Nice place and service is great. I liked their teas too

Not traditional Chinese cuisine. However very small & well curated food/drink menu. Everything we ordered was delicious. Decor is just okay, but the place is clean. Prices are reasonable for the area. Would definitely recommend. read more

Fat Dragon - Calamari & hot tea. - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Had Fat Dragon EVERY YEAR I WENT TO COACHELLA! Honestly the food is so good and after trying everything from the festival, I would say Fat Dragon is the best! Not only the food quality is great, but they also give u a decent restaurant portion and you'll actually be full! One year they had orange chicken, another year they had pad Thai, and I think the most recent year it was Szechuan chicken? They have different food every year but the deliciousness of the food is consistent. Thank you Fat Dragon for all those years of memories. Please keep coming to Coachella cuz me and my friends LOVE FAT DRAGON!! read more

The Fat Dragon is the best Chinese food I've had in my 5 years in LA!! The fried rice was not greasy or oily but fresh and soft! The orange chicken was top notch but the fried wings and goji berry tea left me speechless . I don't live in silver lake but I see my self visiting monthly for the tea or veggie fried rice! Absolute must try!! 5 stars!! read more

Walnut shrimp were ok, but the orange chicken and spicy chow mein was mediocre and dry. Sad excuse for a Chinese food spot.

Used to love this place. Just loved their orange chicken but wow tonight it was terrible. DRY. Not crispy at all and no sauce. Really bad. This obviously is where this place is now. No standards. I can't recommend. Everything else was "fine" but when your signature dish is dry and tough and basically inedible - I'm done. Bad place to order from. read more

Food was amazing. The dragon noodles were incredible. They were a little spicy. If you can handle spice, mix them with the chile oil! read more

Food is flavorful and came out hot. Loved their calamari and the chow fun. It's a small place and more of a takeout place. Service was good as well. read more

The restaurant is nice, clean with minimal decoration. Ray, our server was really friendly and explained the menu nicely. The orange chicken flavor was great but we were not happy with the texture. We were expecting the chicken to be crunchy but it wasn't. The eggplant is amazing. We agreed that it was our favorite dish. The chow fun was also very tasty. The serving sizes were generous and enough for both of us to be full and have leftovers. We would definitely go back and would order the eggplant and noodles but would try some other meat dish. Maybe the fish! Overall, a great experience. The chicken is the only reason they only got 4 stars. read more

Orange chicken, veggie lo mein, mapo tofu. We went for the orange chicken and ended up liking the other two items more but the orange chicken was still solid albeit a smidge disappointing. Service was great. Music was questionable but low enough to ignore read more

This place deserves more 4-5 star reviews. Honestly, what drives most people away are the prices because it is a little more expensive than your average Chinese food takeout, but they give you so much food in each to-go box. What you get is really worth what you pay. This place is currently only takeout or delivery (Door Dash/Uber Eats). I have not been here in person, but I definitely do plan on it to pick up my own future orders. So far I have tried the following: Orange Chicken (10/10) - The first time I tried this I thought it was okay, but only because it is not your typical orange chicken. I also found it to be not as flavorful the first time. I gave it another try yesterday and I realized this is a "healthier" orange chicken, It is not breaded. Rather than being coated in breading, it is chunks of chicken coated in the sauce and sesame seems. It does have a little kick of sweet and sour. I recommend giving this a try even though it's $20!! Dragon Noodles (10000/10) - This is my favorite item so far. I love how spicy it is and it is VEGETARIAN. Of course, you may add meat if you would like for extra $$. This is sort of like Chow Mein, but spicy and flavorful. There are bits of sichuan peppers and jalapenos in each bite. I have always preferred rice over noodles, but I have to get this every time I order from here!! Egg Rolls (7/10) - The egg rolls did not catch my attention that much. They are like every other egg roll you can order on the side at Chinese restaurants, just a bit more filled. Sweet and sour is also available on the side. Spicy Eggplant (10/10) - I was so amazed at how much eggplant my container was filled with!! They were not shy on the eggplant, which I truly appreciate because I LOVE eggplant. Compared to other restaurants, this was very garlicky, spicy, and pure eggplant with green/red bell peppers. I think adding meat is also available for extra $$. If you are in Silver Lake passing by or in the area, go check this place out! It is the perfect place to get a fast, delicious, filling dinner for take out. read more

My friend and I were at the Just Like Heaven Music Festival in Long Beach. We were hungry and this vendor caught our attention. AMBIANCE: To be Completed (Ordered at Just Like Heaven Festival) FOOD: Orange Chicken (Recommend) Delicious! Well sauced and good flavor, can't complain here. Dragon noogles (Recommend) Good portion, toppings of veggies and noodles were well balanced. People may not like the oiliness but it provided me good comfort. Egg rolls (Recommend) Basic orders but once again good comfort. Delicious savory flavor and a good crunch from the wraps. CUSTOMER SERVICE: My server was a girl named Rachel. She was friendly and awesome! TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Food delicious and well worth the price. The noodles and chow mein was good comfort to sustain our hunger and the portion was about right as well. read more

Fat Dragon - Dragon noodles, orange chicken, and egg rolls - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First time here, server was amazing and super helpful. Now the food is of excellent quality and most importantly tastes great.

A fat dragon is a happy dragon in my book! The food here is really good and comes out quick and it is not heavy or greasy at all. It's totally a casual spot serving some seriously tasty Chinese goods while serving some Drake in the background too. Here are the deets on what is seriously filling and delicious (in order of tastiness!): 1. Dry sautéed string beans - ooooooh soooo delicious! Really savory with some heat and whatever soysauce and dry sautéed method used really sticks to these greens, making them super "wet" - somehow this vegetable side dish (which is pretty large when you order take-out and easily shared by more than two) feels like party-in-your-mouth food! Not to be missed! 2. Fish in black bean sauce - soft, large chunks of white fish in a deliciously mild sauce with a lot of crunchy red onions and peppers. Tastes pretty healthy and balanced well with the extra-flavored green beans over a bed of their yummy kinda-sticky white rice! 3. Lo mein - think somewhat thick and more starchy noodles than in a classic Chinese lo mein but with perfectly cooked al dente veggies, bokchoy included. Pretty perfect way to complement a protein of choice! Add a bit more of salt and some spice and you'll be blown away! The prices are good at this neighborhood Silverlake joint and though I've only ordered take out, they are always friendly in the space inside. Not too big of a place, but that's cool...and yes, it is in a wack, small strip mall, but don't let that deter you from sampling all the yumminess of that Fat Dragon! read more

This spot was the best Chinese food I've had in all of California. They open later in the evening and the meals were fresh and delicious. Seriously and our waiter was the kindest person who took good care of us. This is a must go to if you're in Silver Lake. We will be returning. read more

I ordered takeout through Door Dash from here hoping the 3.5 stars theory was true...and it was an almost perfect food experience. We ordered the Dragon Fried Rice, the Dragon Noodles and Mary's Orange Chicken. The food arrived warm and it smelled amazing even in its boxes! The rice comes with a Chinese sausage and bacon that are delicious. The orange chicken was tasty especially the sauce but I wished it was a little juicier. The noodles were thick and spicy. I'm Mexican and on a spicy level of 1-10 they were about an 7.5 so keep that in mind before you order them. read more
