Customer reviews present a mixed picture of Danforth Dragon Restaurant. One reviewer specifically recommends the "chilli chicken lunch special" as a comforting midweek option, consisting of fried chilli chicken, steamed rice, and hot and sour soup.

However, another customer shared a significantly negative experience, expressing disappointment with several dishes. They described the General Tso chicken as greasy, soggy, and having a nondescript sauce. The butter chicken was also criticized for using fatty chicken and an unusual "orange ketchup" sauce. Furthermore, the reviewer stated that the naan was actually stale pita bread served cool, and even the white rice was overcooked and unsalted. This negative feedback led to a refund via a food delivery platform.

Considering the contrasting reviews, it appears that experiences at Danforth Dragon Restaurant may vary. While some patrons might find satisfying options like the chilli chicken lunch special, others have reported significant issues with the quality and preparation of other dishes. Local users are advised to take these varying perspectives into account when considering dining at or ordering from Danforth Dragon Restaurant.

The chilli chicken lunch special is what you need for a mid-week pickup for a comforting set of fried chilli chicken, and steamed rice with a side of hot and sour soup.

I’ve never had to do this, but I’m so dismayed with how the reviews here and on Uber Eats could be so misleading. Danforth Dragon was a huge disappointment. The General Tso chicken was unpalatable. Greasy, breaded, SOGGY, chicken with a nondescript sauce. The butter chicken was made with fatty cuts of what I think was chicken in an orange ketchup(?). The naan was not naan. It was stale pita and cool to the touch (even though wrapped in aluminum). When we realized that even the white rice was overcooked and unsalted we decided to call the restaurant. They were surprised and apologized that we didn’t like the food…what else could we expect them to say? We got our money back via Uber Eats. I had leftovers and my gf swallowed some white rice with some of the “ketchup butter chicken sauce” 🤢

Was craving some good Indian-Chinese (Hakka here in Canada) & this place was absolutely amazing. Loved the meal & the service was even better. Quick. And courteous. The host was warm & felt like I wasn’t in Toronto for a bit (as the city and customer service don’t do well). If you’re in the food service business, the experience is worth just as much as how good the food is. Highly recommend the pork bbq fried rice. Fluffy and soft. Seasoned well. Chicken Pokara had the spices in them & were not bland (or just batter fried). Chilli chicken was good but may have been a little over cooked with the crunch or been out for a short while. Still flavourful nonetheless. Come to Greek town for some good Hakka! Really? Really!

I wanted to love this place SO badly because of the low price and super friendly person working the front but after paying $1.50 to swap my rice to fried noodles, I got literally raw, uncooked noodles with my chicken! I couldn’t eat them :( Check your food before you leave!

A great Hakka experience. I've eaten here a few times and have always found the service great and the food well made with generous portions. For me, the spice edges on mild, but I also have a pallet for spice that tends towards hot so I can't speak for everyone. The atmosphere is casual without being too cheap.
