Dragon Express

This is your typical Chinese food take out joint. I say take out because there are only two small tables. I have ordered from here twice, both at lunch time. I get the Chicken Lo Mein, Fried Rice, and today I added two Spring Rolls. The lunch special is $ 5.10 before tax and includes main dish, fried rice (veg, chicken, or pork), and a can soda. The Lo Mein and rice are typical for this type of restaurant. I did find the Spring Rolls to be fried a little too hard and not much filling. The menu had Philly Cheese Steaks and other American items. Someone else needs to review those, it won’t be me. I do recommend this restaurant if you want a cheap, good lunch meal. No need to call ahead, the kitchen is efficient and take out won’t take more than 5 min.

Very poor service. Food is good but you have to call 10 times to get your food delivered to you. Most of the times orders are messed up. They will forgot the side things such as spicy oil. After 3 hours my food finally came. I ordered Tofu, I am a strict vegetarian and for religious purposes I cannot eat meat. When I start eating, there was something that does not look like Tofu and that was a big chunk of chicken. I called them back and said they had put chicken in my food, the girl said that we can deliver same order for you. Do you really think after having that bad experience I will trust this place and order it from here?

About what you would expect from one of the hole in the wall fast Chinese places. Food is mediocre, the staff, usually a lady takes orders is not friendly at all. I don’t know if she doesn’t speak English or if she’s timid, or what, but she is very cold. Called for delivery once and she said I was right down the road and to just come get it. If I could have come and gotten it, I wouldn’t have asked for delivery.

This place is awesome. Always has good food. When it’s delivered its still hot! Would recommend it.

The food is always good and the delivery is always quick. The restaurant is clean. The crab Rago on are a must have.

We’ve gotten delivery from them for years but lately they’ve taken over an hour to deliver regardless of time of day and they might be using different cooking oil because the food taste a lot different now. April 10^th is the last time me or my family get food from them again.

On a hangry evening with no energy to go out I decided to order from Dragon Express; the hotel clerk was nice enough to lend me a menu. There is a definite language barrier going on via telephone, much huh? pardon me’s? so on and so forth, the person taking my order was a bit short on patience to be the one with the handicap but I digress. They were out of some of the menu items I chose and I had to pick new items on the fly to get my order wrapped up and delivered. I had the shrimp lo mein/​fried rice combo with an egg roll which was delivered hot/​fresh, delivery took awhile, I’m assuming they were busy. The lo mein was a tad oily for my taste but the flavor was good, seasoned very well.
They have subs, I decided to try a cheeseburger w/​egg, I know I know, not from a Chinese restaurant but just in case I didn’t get down for breakfast I’d have something, good thing I ordered it, next day was Easter & I didn’t want to fight any food crowds in order to get a meal, worked out great actually, it wasn’t the best grade of beef but it was dressed well with all the fixings which helped along with the fried egg, I’d order again just to try out some of their other offerings.

This use to be one of my favorites until recently I have had back to back bad experience with them. They use dirty oil for their fried food. The fried chicken wings you can literally taste the burnt oil on the chicken. First time it happened I did not buy food their for over a month. I than gave the benefit of the doubt yesterday and same thing. I will no longer invest any of money their.

Friendly service and the food is great!

When my and my bf arrived here hungry as hell we waited for over 10 minutes while the lady working their finished up her conversation on the phone. In front of us. Not once even saying hello or hang on. Then she walks into the kitchen and starts a convo with some of the employees. I get it, it’s quick cheap food… there’s no excuse to mistreat or neglect customers. I swear if we weren’t so hungry we would have walked out. The food was not great for the price, but we were hungry.

I ate here for lunch after a busy morning. I ordered the bean curd Szechuan style, and a drink. Overall, the ordering was quick, the price was okay, and food was prepared in approximately 10min. It was not spicy at all, even though I wanted it to have a little kick to it, but it was good, just a tad sweet. It wasn’t the best food I ever had, but I would go back and try something else on the menu. 4 out of 5 stars!

Very good chicken and veggies lunch special. Price was reasonable. I’ll be back for sure. If you are short on time, be sure to call ahead. They have 4 tables so not much seating at lunch.

Your typical Chinese take out. The kitchen looked well maintained. If you haven’t ordered over the phone before, I wouldn’t.they’ll rush you and you may take em rudely, its obviously the language barrier. I’m excited for fried wontons and the general tso chicken.
Now for the Aftermath…
The General Tso’s wasn’t spicy… so that’s a bummer… fried wontons were typical and the portions were hearty.

This place is good for cheap takeout. The delivery is pretty fast; I wouldn’t go here otherwise.

Quick and simple!
This restaurant reminds me of a place in Alma, Michigan. If you want a quick and easy Chinese fix, come and order from this place. I ordered my usual Hot & Sour Soup and Sweet and Sour Chicken — can’t go wrong with that order. It was good!
I’d definitely come back and order from this place again. The prices are good too, plus they have lunch specials from 11AM — 3PM for $ 4.89 and $ 5.09. Check it out, they have some good choices.
They’re located near the Starbucks located on Oaklawn.
