" Dragon Kitchen has earned a spot on my list of preferred buffets because it checks off so many boxes for a great restaurant experience. The range of options is superb, and I find the value for the price is outstanding. Many dishes are delicious, with standouts being their crab rangoon and peppery shrimp. I often enjoy my meals there, but I think they could use a little more consistency in flavor across different dishes. Service has also varied by time of visit, but overall, it's a great place when you're looking for a relaxed lunch or dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a bit torn about Dragon Kitchen. The first visit was fantastic, with fresh and vibrant dishes—notably their sushi rolls. But on my return, I noticed the food quality taking a hit, with some items slightly cold. The atmosphere was still pleasant, filled with families enjoying their meals. The staff were welcoming, but service seemed slow on my second visit. It has potential, but I hope they can maintain consistency because the first time was a real treat! " (*Curated Review*)

" It’s always a joy to dine at Dragon Kitchen! Their lunch buffet is superb—you can get in and enjoy a wide variety of dishes at a reasonable price. I adore their crab rangoon and while there are many traditional dishes, I’m always excited to see new items added to the menu. The staff is typically efficient, and I've never had major mishaps. My only critique would be to improve the food turnover rate to maintain freshness, especially during busy hours. Still, every visit feels satisfying and rewarding. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my recent visit, I decided to treat myself to lunch at Dragon Kitchen. The buffet was well-stocked with a vast array of dishes that were all pretty good. My favorites included the coconut shrimp and the lo mein—absolutely delicious! This place has a fantastic atmosphere, energetic and welcoming. While my server was nice, the service felt a bit stretched thin; it took a while for my drinks to be refilled. Despite this minor hiccup, I enjoyed my time, and I’m sure I’ll be back for my next Chinese buffet fix. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a local, I've always loved visiting Dragon Kitchen, especially for birthdays and celebrations. The food is generally solid, and the variety keeps things interesting. My only concern is that they need to keep an eye on the freshness of the items in the buffet. While some dishes are phenomenal, others can be a hit or miss based on the time you visit. I do appreciate their reasonable prices, though! The atmosphere remains fun, and I always look forward to my next visit here. Just be mindful of timing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dragon Kitchen is one of my go-to places with friends when we crave Chinese food. I simply adore the buffet format as it allows for trying a bit of everything! Everything was stocked fresh, and I even enjoyed trying their special mushroom chicken dish. The staff was friendly, but I noticed a slight delay in service once we got seated—our drink orders took longer than usual. Overall, it was a really satisfying meal, and I look forward to my next visit. Just remember to keep an eye on the freshness during peak busy times! " (*Curated Review*)

" After a long day, eating at Dragon Kitchen felt like a well-deserved treat. I agree with others that the place has a cozy atmosphere, and the buffet selections were plentiful. My favorites included the coconut shrimp and the special fried rice, which were bursting with flavor. It’s great for families, especially since the pricing is incredibly family-friendly! However, I did notice some inconsistencies as some dishes appeared old or unappetizing. The staff was friendly but a bit overwhelmed during peak hours. If you’re looking for a convenient place with lots of options, this is worth trying. " (*Curated Review*)
