Dragon Express

No just no… Keep walking… Do not stop here. Not good seasoning on any of the dishes!

I’m not the type of person to kick someone when they’re down. I have a feeling this place has experienced better times, in which case they’re in need of some patronage. But… I cannot let the food slide. Being «the only game in town» is no excuse. Well, o.k. one of three in Buffalo proper, to be precise. But please! You cannot make lo mein with spaghetti noodles! That’s something that I, a non-​Chinese would do. Because I can’t cook proper Chinese food. But you can/​should be able to! That’s why we go out for Chinese! Also, the chicken wasn’t fresh/​had a metallic aftertaste. And the sauce was, well, weaksauce. In an ideal world, all chefs, even short order cooks, would have a passion for food/​cooking! But I know sometimes you just have to get by. The guy from «Restaurant Impossible» needs to turn this place around! Also, the space is huge. If you walk in at night, you get the feeling of «where are all the people?» But if you want space to sit and contemplate things, sure. Maybe even bring your laptop.

Possibly the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had.
After moving into our apt, I was grateful to see a Chinese take out menu in the lobby and faithfully ordered the ma po tofu. Being such a basic classic dish, it’s something you really can’t mess up and at the same time good indicator of their ability.
Boy did they mess up.
It was basically chunks of tofu floating in the ubiquitous sweet sour sauce, plus some carrot bits on the side. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw it.
At least their chicken wings were big and cheap.
Please do yourself a favor– either make yourselves better or just close down.

Located downtown in the middle of a city, a bit outdated but still amazing food quality. The front would never give away the good food taste. When I walked in thought they were closed. It’s a very large place for a take out restaurant.
The food was fresh and had good flavor. I would like to give it a 3.5 at least. Maybe they lost a bit of points on interior and front presentation…
But this place should get a lot more credit for their food.

This place needs more review. Food is decent. It was the closest location near Hyatt Hotel. General Tso’s chicken wasn’t crispy at all but I’ll let it slide. It’s located along abandoned buildings. I would not suggest eating inside. The woman and the man working inside were friendly. English is obviously their second language so speak slowly and they’ll get your order right. Heads up, they close at 8pm!

This place is near my job and I’ve ordered from here repeatedly. It’s a nice change when you tire of the local sandwiches, pizza, and diner fare. The lunch combo is super reasonable and I’ve been happy with all the dishes I’ve ordered so far. According to the menu, they’ve been under new management as of 2÷3÷14.

This is a large hole in the wall joint located right across the street from the Hyatt where I was staying. It is literally a skip and a hop away! It’s kind of sad because theres so much space here that is not being used. It was completely deserted when I was there but I presume most of their business comes from take out/​delivery. This is a mom and pop shop… Literally. The lady who took my order also cooked our food! Prices are on the lower side. Most of their dishes are $ 7 or less and comes with fried rice and an egg roll. So, do come here if you want some cheap asian food!

The food is continuously good. Doesn’t vary from order to order.
Eating in really isn’t an option as there isn’t heat in the winter, but if you’re brave enough to do it, go for it. Great for take out though. Sometimes when calling in, orders aren’t started until arriving.
Eating area is clean, but outdated.
