" My recent visit to Fat Dragon was fantastic! We ordered a variety of dishes, including their famous firecracker shrimp, which was bursting with flavor. The atmosphere struck a good balance between lively and comfortable, making it a perfect spot for our family dinner. The service was attentive, and our server had great recommendations for us. All in all, a great experience and I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled across Fat Dragon while wandering Richmond and I must say, it was a delightful find! The food was rich with flavors and beautifully presented. I enjoyed the stir-fried eggplant as well as the garlic chicken. The ambiance was lively and perfect for a dinner date. I’ll definitely be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! I discovered Fat Dragon while exploring Richmond, and I was blown away by the flavors of the dishes. We indulged in their calamari and General Tso's Chicken, both of which were exquisite. It was obvious the chef takes pride in their work because everything was cooked to perfection. We left with happy bellies and big smiles; will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Fat Dragon after hearing so many good things but didn't quite see what the hype was about. The food was decent but did not match the rave reviews. Some dishes seemed under-seasoned, and I felt the service staff could be more proactive. The atmosphere was nice, but overall a rather average experience for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided on the spur of the moment to check out Fat Dragon and was pleasantly surprised. The ambiance was chic and inviting, and I enjoyed the variety on the menu; everything tasted very fresh. Unfortunately, my dumplings were a bit doughy for my taste, but the stir-fried veggies were a hit! I would give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fat Dragon has quickly become a favorite of mine. The fired rice is out of this world delicious, perhaps the best I’ve had here! My only critique is that the restaurant can get pretty loud during peak hours, but the food and service make it all worth it—absolutely a must-visit for anyone in Richmond! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved this place! The food was bursting with flavors! I personally enjoyed the chili dumplings and General Tso’s; what a combo! The service was quick, and the waiter was really friendly. The ambiance added to the dining experience with its cozy decor. I can’t wait to go back and introduce my friends to this gem! " (*Curated Review*)
