" This was my first visit to Dragon Kitchen, and I was pleasantly surprised. Upon arrival, I noticed the bustling atmosphere, which gave off a welcoming vibe. The buffet spread was decent, with a good choice of entrees, appetizers, and desserts. I particularly enjoyed their sweet and sour chicken, which tasted fresh and well-prepared. The staff seemed busy but managed to keep the service flowing nicely. I did wish for a few more authentic dishes, though—it felt a bit geared towards mainstream tastes rather than traditional. Nevertheless, a good experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family's first time at Dragon Kitchen was great! We were greeted upon entering and seated quickly. The atmosphere felt inviting and the buffet had a wide range of options. I particularly enjoyed their coconut shrimp and sweet and sour chicken. Food was freshly made and hot, which made such a difference. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure our experience was pleasant. Overall, a fantastic option for families looking to enjoy diverse dining selections together. " (*Curated Review*)

" I often stop by Dragon Kitchen on my way home from work. The convenience and pricing make it an attractive option. During my last visit, I noticed some good changes; the food has been a bit fresher than usual, making the overall dining experience nicer. However, I wish they had more authentic Chinese options, as much of the buffet feels tailored to mainstream American tastes. That said, the crab rangoon remains a satisfying choice every time. Friendly staff round out the visit, although service can be slow at times, especially during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family to Dragon Kitchen last weekend, and we were all impressed with the variety available in the buffet. The option of sushi alongside traditional items made it a fun meal for everyone. Most of the dishes we tried were flavorful and interesting, particularly the sweet and sour chicken. However, we did find a couple of items that seemed more bland and less impressive. Overall, I would say it’s a great place to bring families, considering the atmosphere is cheerful and friendly. A bit more attention to the less popular items would elevate the overall quality of the dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having eaten at countless buffets in my life, little excites me more than a great find. Dragon Kitchen is one of those gems, with a sprawling range of dishes that tickle the taste buds. I particularly loved their range of desserts, particularly the soft-serve ice cream which is a lovely touch. That said, I did run into a few uninspired offerings—mostly some of the chicken options, which didn’t have much flavor. The cleanliness of the place was notable, and overall, it’s a decent choice if you're looking for an affordable meal. " (*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*)
