" Every time I go to Great Dragon, I am marvelled by how fresh and generous the portions are! I had the honey walnut shrimp last week, and it was divine – crisp shrimp tossed in a lightly sweet sauce and topped with walnuts. I appreciated the simple, casual setting where I can enjoy my meal without distractions. Their delivery service is also noteworthy; it gets here fast! All in all, Great Dragon has some of the best value for the price in Dubuque. " (*Curated Review*)

" During my recent visit to Great Dragon, I ordered the house special Lo Mein and was really excited to try it based on the reviews. However, it fell short; the noodles felt overcooked and lacked that 'grab' in flavor. On the positive side, the shrimp and broccoli dish I tried was quite good and had nice seafood flavor. The dining area felt a bit cramped, and it could use a little more cleanliness at times. I'd still give it another shot based on the warm service I received during my previous visits. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great Dragon has been a staple in my family for years! From their crispy egg rolls to their savory dumplings, it’s an absolute treat. I love how they often have special family meals that's enough to feed an army! Once, we even used them for a family reunion catering, and everyone couldn’t stop raving about the dishes – especially the sweet and sour chicken. The quick service and friendly smiles from the staff make it feel like home. This restaurant is truly a hidden treasure in Dubuque and a must-try for any Chinese food lover. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, just wow! I had the pleasure of dining at Great Dragon for the first time last week and I was not disappointed. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and a bit nostalgic; you can tell it’s a family-owned place. I ordered the cashew chicken and my friend got the sesame tofu. Both dishes were impeccably seasoned and generously portioned. We shared a couple of appetizers, and the price was very reasonable for the amount we received. I felt like I was experiencing a small piece of China right here in Iowa. I can’t recommend it enough and will definitely be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great Dragon is where I go for an authentic dining experience. I’ve been to many Chinese restaurants across the Midwest, but none match the true taste of Great Dragon. Their Moo Shu, which is often scene in Chinese buffet, steals the show here – it is fresh and packs a flavorful punch! The staff, while sometimes busy, is usually quick and friendly. I would suggest going on a weekday as weekends can be quite crowded, but it’s worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m sorry to say, but my visit to Great Dragon was far from great. The egg drop soup was bland, and while the hot and sour soup had some decent flavor, it wasn't enough to save my meal. The staff seemed overwhelmed and forgot my drinks, which was also disappointing. I might return to give them another shot when they aren't so busy, but overall I left feeling unsatisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a not-so-great experience at Great Dragon recently. The food was decent, but honestly nothing stood out as particularly special. The crab Rangoon, which I was looking forward to, was overly sweet and lacked that crunchy texture. The service was friendly enough, though, so I may give it another try just to see if it was an off day. Sometimes restaurants have their ups and downs. " (*Curated Review*)
