" I had an amazing experience at Dragon Express! Their hot and sour soup was just the right balance of flavors, and their kung pao chicken was perfectly spicy without overwhelming my palate. I wanted to emphasize how I felt their food really stood out in terms of freshness. I appreciated that they do not rely on pre-packaged sauces and seem to whip everything up from scratch, except for those rangoons, which were subpar. Nevertheless, the service was quick, and the staff was friendly, which enhanced the experience further. The atmosphere isn't anything special, but the quality of food and service certainly made up for it! I'm rating this a solid 5 out of 5! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each visit to Dragon Express has its ups and downs. I love the variety on the menu, which makes each meal feel exciting. My last meal included both the sweet and sour chicken and the peppered steak special, which I found flavorful and enjoyable. However, the atmosphere can feel very rushed, and it lacks warmth, suggesting a need for an update in ambiance. The service was prompt, which is generally a plus for me. I’d rate my meal a solid 4 overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" When I first visited Dragon Express, I was taken by the sheer variety on the menu! From classic fare to interesting options like spicy tofu, I felt excited to try several dishes. I ordered the orange chicken, and I must say, it was delicious! The only downside was that the service was incredibly slow—probably due to the lunch rush. Would’ve given it a perfect score had we not had to wait so long. Still, a solid visit overall and a recommended spot for those wanting to experience different kinds of Asian foods. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my visit to Dragon Express, I had high hopes based on friends’ recommendations; however, the reality didn't meet those expectations. The service was lackluster, with a waitress who didn't seem engaged. The shrimp fried rice was bland and average. However, the honey chicken was a different story—full of flavor and perfectly cooked! If the service matched the quality of the food, I’d have given them a higher score, but sadly, it didn't. I’m giving my experience a solid 3. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Dragon Express on a recommendation from a coworker who raved about their orange chicken. I ordered it, and I can confidently say I understood the hype! The chicken was crispy, coated in a lovely sweet sauce, and it came with a generous side of fried rice. However, when I tried the crab rangoons, I was taken aback. They tasted different, not at all what I expected. Instead of cream cheese, they had some odd cheese that did not complement the dish at all. The place was clean, but the atmosphere felt very basic, so I'd give that part a lower rating. Hoping it was just a one-off regarding the rangoons. Overall, I'd still recommend the orange chicken highly and rate my visit as a solid 4. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered Dragon Express last night for dinner, and I was eager to indulge in my favorite shrimp fried rice. It came packaged neatly and was still warm by the time I got home. However, upon tasting it, I was disappointed—it lacked flavor and the shrimp was overcooked. The service over the phone was friendly, but ultimately, I expected better from my go-to place. I will think twice about ordering here again if the quality continues to decline so rapidly. I’d say 2/5 for this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a quick and affordable Chinese meal, Dragon Express is definitely the place to go. I stopped by for lunch last week and ordered the lunch special that came with a good serving of fried rice and an entree. I particularly enjoyed the sesame chicken, which was tender and well-cooked. The service was friendly and prompt. However, upon trying the crab rangoons, I was aghast when I discovered they were made with a different cheese rather than the traditional cream cheese. Despite that hiccup, I was pleased overall with my meal and will certainly be back. " (*Curated Review*)
