Hit the spot for a classic Chinese take out spot! Hunan chicken was spicy and delicious! The hot and sour soup was very soy sauce heavy though. read more

After a track meet where my two sons competed in various events--the 100 meters, 200 meters, and 300-meter relay--earning first, second, first, fourth, and first places, I decided to treat them to dinner. I let my youngest choose the spot, but his initial pick had closed early at 3 PM. After some deliberation, we settled on 9 Dragon, a cozy nook of a Chinese restaurant off the LSU campus on Burbank. We'd passed it countless times before but never stopped in. With seating limited, we still opted to dine in. Having mostly frequented upscale local spots like PF Chang's and Cheng's, I told the boys this was a chance to explore a different style of Chinese cooking. The menu was extensive, and we ordered steamed dumplings, egg rolls, sweet-and-sour soup, buffalo wings with fried rice, beef pepper steak, and our usual General Tso's chicken, paired with fountain drinks. While the food was being prepared, I excused myself to the restroom. It struck me immediately--this place felt like a throwback to my college days. The facilities could use some attention. The food arrived promptly. My son remarked that the egg rolls were sweet, and I noticed a distinct cinnamon flavor, along with some greasiness. The buffalo wings were generous in portion, and the beef pepper steak was decent, with a salty-sweet sauce that stood out. Both boys enjoyed the General Tso's chicken, a reliable favorite. All dishes came with a substantial serving of fried rice, which was stiff and somewhat bland. We had plenty left to take home. Throughout our meal, the restaurant hummed with a steady flow of college-aged students--likely from nearby student housing and apartments--coming and going with ease. Their presence lent a lively reminder to the rhythm of the place, a quiet sign that the food was fresh enough and satisfying for the crowd. 9 Dragon offers an economical meal, clearly tailored to students on a budget. It's not about upscale flair; it's a practical stop where the generous portions and consistent patronage tell you it's a solid choice for a quick, affordable bite. read more

Pretty solid. Forgot my pork fried rice which was not cool. Doesn't seem to come with fortune cookie either which is also not cool. Not bad tho and friendly service. read more

I have no clue what I just ate, but it was not chicken. Praying I do not get food poisoning! Never seen chicken of that color or texture in my entire life. Truly worried for my health. read more

Nine Dragon Chinese Restaurant - It's grey. - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Great Chinese restaurant. Not too expensive and does all the right things. Can't complain about anything that they do, the reason I had to settle with a 4/5 is because they just didn't knock me out of the park. It's hard to get a perfect score from me so consider a 4 the next closet thing to Ghandi. NDD on top of the BR Chinese game read more

Nine Dragon is a dependable and consistent Chinese food restaurant. You order, receive a nicely packaged gift, and then you devour whatever tasty option you chose. The picture I included is my favorite order from Nine Dragon, coconut chicken. A girl I dated years ago introduced me to this, and although she was "coocoo" and nuts, I appreciate her for this. Hey, Nine Dragon, bring the lunch buffet special back...please! read more

I think they might have new owners. Ive been ordering the same order for the past three years and this time it had completely different ingredients, maybe to cut cost, and tasted significantly worse. read more

Good was amazing as well as the prices, the staff were very friendly and our food came out fast. One of my favorite places to get Chinese food from read more

First time trying nine dragon in a few years and it was so good and valued very reasonably. Forgot to tell lady on the phone I wanted white rice. When I got there I asked if they had made the order already and if I could still get white rice. The lady said they already did but still gave me white rice on the side for free. Very nice staff. read more

Nine Dragon Chinese Restaurant - All of this for $20! I got the C1. General Tso's Chicken Combo Platter add extra veggies, egg drop soup and a shrimp roll. - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Ordered regular sesame chicken and regular side of lo mein w chicken. It looked good, but the sesame chicken was mushy (more mushy crust than chicken), and the chicken in the lo mein was chewy, rubber-like. Definitely some questionable chicken. Did not care for the taste of it either. We order take out/carry out. We were running late picking it up, and still had to wait at least 20 minutes till it was done. So that was about 15 minutes before we got there (they said it would be ready in ten) and then another 20 minutes after we got there so all in all, about 35-40 minutes to get an order of chicken a side of lo mein that was pure crap. Where, I'm from the Chinese food was on point always, so idk. Maybe Baton Rouge is used to this kind of Chinese food. I was disappointed. read more

I'm new to baton rouge and was excited to scope out the Chinese food scene as it's one of my favorite types of food. I was near campus and saw on yelp this place has good reviews, so I decided to give it a shot! This place is a hole in the wall and wasn't the cleanest restaurant I've been too, but they did have a large plastic screen up as a COVID precaution. I ordered the crab/cheese puffs, lunch combo sesame chicken with steamed rice, and my dad got the lunch boneless spare ribs with pork fried rice. All of our food was good. The crab puffs were tasty and not too crabby. The sesame chicken was decent but wasn't my favorite texture and flavor-wise. My dad enjoyed his food and liked the special was served with pork fried rice. I was disappointed that the lunch special didn't include an appetizer or soup like many Chinese restaurants do. Overall this place was good, and I would be open to returning if I wanted a quick bite near campus, but wouldn't drive out of my way to come here. read more

A low-priced meal with plenty of flavor. They have a typical Chinese menu with a little something for everyone, including vegetarians. There are several small tables inside, or you can order to go and take the food home. I ordered the General Tso's Tofu, based on another review. While the portion size was very generous, there wasn't much broccoli and the tofu was awfully mushy. The sauce was good though. It was just $7 for dinner, including a tip. Nothing blew me away with my meal, but due to affordable prices and good flavor, they earn a solid 3-star rating. read more

Nine Dragon Chinese Restaurant - General Tso's Tofu. Great flavor, but a little bit on the mushy side. - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

I love nine dragon. It's not like stunning Chinese food (unless intoxicated) but it is definitely a great tasting bang for your buck. I really enjoy the chicken with garlic sauce meal that comes with pork fried rice. One reason I really like this place is because it is not all veggies with a couple scraps of meat they give you a good amount of both. Nine dragon is a very solid take out Chinese place that I recommend for anyone in the LSU area. read more

Super delicious and food is fine super quick! Prices are good too, which is great because it's right outside of LSU campus

Nothing is spicy even when you go back and make them remake it and give you extra containers of their chili peppers. Their peppers aren't spicy. Blandest shit ever. Used to be good I don't know what happened. read more

I have had much better Chinese takeout food. Quality was not very good. Do not recommend.

I just can't make myself order Chinese food from anywhere else. I know it's nothing fancy but its Chinese food done exactly how I want it - greasy but not so greasy I'll be sick right after I eat it. The lunch is one of the best (if not the best) deal at midday around LSU - 4 items off of their buffet of about 14 items for just over $5 with tax. Even after lunch, you get literally 2 lbs of food (entree, rice/noodles) for under $10. My go-tos are the Coconut Chicken, the Amazing Chicken, ANY of the soups, and the Beef with Broccoli. Your wallet and your tummy will certainly thank you for choosing this place. read more

the food was good and the guy at the counter (owner perhaps; seems like a small operation) came out and gave me a plate of grapes. it was so strange and random and i dig it read more

I use to frequent here during undergrad days. Now this place is a disappointment. They have $8 plus 4 pick combo plus drink. Every single time I come they give one scoop per item. How do I get full off of that? Most importantly, how do u call that a combo? If anything it is a 4 pick Taste meal. Sometimes food taste off.. and I end up with stomach problems in the next few days. Il done w this place and their mystery meat read more

Love the curry shrimp and some of their other dishes. Me and my bf go there often and it's not too expensive in store.

NOTE: This is NOT 9 Dragon Noodle House (place next to neighborhood walmart off Lee/Highland) Thsi is the similarly named American Chinese place next to Mellow Mushroom off Burbank. Egg drop soup was pretty great. Cream Cheese Rangoons = underseasoned. Drastically. Fried rice = not too shabby. i'd definitely order again Sesame Chicken = odd? definitely nutmeg in the sauce recipe, and it just throws me off Black Pepper Chicken = pretty decent. I typical prefer this dish stir-fried, but at 9 dragon it is battery and fried read more

Badly messed up the order the past two times we got food there. Went back to tell them and they were extremely rude, refused to help with our order when we even had pictures for proof. Portions have gotten significantly smaller and prices have gotten higher. Would not suggest eating here. read more

Got warm food from this place in the aftermath of hurricane Ida when almost the entire city shut down. They were overwhelmed with orders but also quite efficient in churning out good quality food fast. read more

Quick pickup. Average food. Make sure they cook it fresh and don't serve you from buffet line. Convenient location near LSU.

The place was clean and had very friendly staff. The food was good but didn't seem fresh. I would still give them another chance for improvement read more

Favorite Chinese restaurant of all time. The lunch serving line special is the best deal on the planet. Recommend all

This a quick, easy and inexpensive lunch option--especially if you are a college student or just like cheap eats--4 entree choices and a drink for about $6.50. read more

We love shrimp and broccoli, egg rolls, Lo mein. Quick and easy, fresh, affordable. Our go-to spot for Chinese.

Nine Dragon is the beat Chinese around LSU. The lunch buffet is a steal. You choose 4, of about 12, Chinese take out staples and a drink for around $5. read more

This is the most amazing chinese restaurant I have ever eaten at. They are always quick, quote 10 minutes for a pick up. The food is priced well and the servings are huge. A great meal for vegetarians... buddhist delight, spicy! Never fails to impress. I just moved to California and can't find any good chinese food. I need a Nine Dragon here!! read more

Everything is cheap and it's usually pretty quick. Food is typical Chinese, no special flavoring or anything really. Easy place to stop in for take out. read more

Overall, I will definitely be back, especially after they open the location near my apartment. I went after putting together the Weekly Yelp about Asian lunch specials. After reading the reviews, I decided I had to try it, especially since I have a love affair with hole-in-the-wall Chinese joints. My trip started great when I paid less than $7, and I got 4 dishes and a drink. I got the Lo Mein and the Teriyaki Chicken, and a couple of others. I was pleased with everything. The Lo Mein was fresh with the noodles being soft but not mushy. The chicken comes on skewers and was also very fresh. For the price, you get a good amount of food, and the food is quality and fresh -- definitely worth the trip. read more

First time at this location I got an order of the cream cheese wontons. These were very good I'll definitely be back.

Nothing like fast, affordable Chinese food. This is close to LSU, and I always see a ton of undergrads in there. There's a few tables if you want to dine in, but it seems people mainly order for take out. They don't do delivery, unfortunately. Personally, I'm partial to the vegetable egg foo young, which is basically a patty made of fried egg with snap peas, carrots, etc. incorporated throughout. Theirs is pretty good and comes with an order of rice and a brown sauce. You can get an order of three with a small container of rice and an eggroll for under $8, which is perfect for my (extremely small) budget. Can't beat $4/dinner serving! I've also had their egg drop soup, which is also pretty solid (not literally), as well as their fried rice. Overall, it's definitely not the BEST Chinese food I've ever had, but you can't beat the taste at this price point. read more

I go solely for the won ton soup! Everything else is your typical quick, cheap Chinese food but ohhh the soup!

I saw some of the reviews of this place and decided to venture away from my usual Chinese take out spot. Bad choice. This place is really busy with lousy food. Before you even think about going here, know that it is not really Chinese food. It is kind of like Chinese food with a lot of salt! We had beef lo mein, sweet and sour pork, and wonton soup. The soup was almost too salty to drink. I had to stop and throw out over half of it. The sweet and sour pork was basically little fried pork nuggets in Polynesian sauce (This is not how it is supposed to be you know. There are supposed to be some pork bones in there and onions, and occasionally bell peppers). The beef lo mein was also on the salty side. There are certainly better options at this price point. I will not be coming here again. read more

Sorry for confusion I was actually at 9 dragon noodle . Not here I'm sure nine dragon noodle is awesome too?

My 2nd favorite Chinese spot. The food is really inexpensive and taste great. I've been here at least 5 times (maybe more) and I've always been pleased with my food. read more
