Lucky Dragon
Just moved to the hood and found this Chinese take out place. The food is so fresh and amazing and big portion. It’s very close to home made meal and not greasy.
My wife and I don't do this--we don't write reviews, of anything, but we had to share this experience. We live in Dayton, Ohio, and had 2 appointments yesterday, one in the Cincy area, and one in Florence Ky. It was a long drive in very heavy traffic, we had been in and out of the car at this point for over 6 hours, and we stopped and filled the tank and randomly parked in a strip mall next to the gas station to reset for a moment, and figure out something to grab to eat on the way home that didn't involve a fast food drive-thru. As we were sitting in the car and I pulled the phone out to see what was near us to grab some take out, we noticed we were parked right in front of Lucky Dragon. We hadn't even considered Chinese food as an option (not the easiest thing to eat while driving), but we both looked at each other and thought, ok, why not, it's probably the usual GFS/Sisco sourced, Americanized food, heavy on the greasy brown sauce that saturates almost every selection at almost every Chinese restaurant, and makes every dish taste the same, regardless of which one you order. But having a 30 year "hobby" and passion of trying every egg roll we can in every city we've been in throughout the world, we figured it was at least worth a shot when we saw on their menu, "roast pork egg roll". Here's where the ooooh myyyy part comes in. I was greeted by a lovely husband and wife team, the owners, who could not have been more nice. I ordered Triple Ingredients (Triple Delight?), and Szechuan Chicken, not expecting anything special, but we were hopeful that their egg rolls were going to be decent. I took them back to the car where my wife was waiting. We each took a bite of an egg roll. THE BEST, most flavorful and carefully made from scratch egg roll we've ever had in our lives. The two dishes we ordered were utterly unique--no heavy greasy brown sauce, very light on oil and both had a completely different spice and flavor, the Szechuan having a distinct ginger and garlic vibe to it, the other a bit more savory and "juicy" thing going on that's hard to describe. Simply put, don't let this tiny place in a strip mall let you assume it's one of the thousands of "generic but decent enough" places. It was the best Chinese meal we've ever had in our lives. I rushed back in and bought 6 more(!) egg rolls to take back to Dayton. This wonderful couple really have it going on, and it's worth a trip there. Even if it's a long trip. It's THAT good. Lucky Dragon indeed. We certainly got lucky, randomly discovering it. We will be back, for sure.
Red Pepper
Arrived as a party of eight one hour before closing time on a Friday night. Great service. Wonderful food. Comfortable chairs
Placed an order for a couple of guests. First-time visitors to this location and we utilized the delivery service. The service was quick, fast, and most importantly our order was correct. The portion sizes were fair for the price. In addition, the food was still warm upon delivery. All of the orders were made as requested. No complaints and everyone was fine with the service.
China City Buffet
We went for the lunch buffet which was a great deal for everything they offer. Food was overall pretty great. The sushi when we went could have been a little more fresh. Everything else I had was good however. Staff were kind and super quick to provide refills and for clearing the table. Overall pretty good option for a buffet and would recommend.
I was not happy to begin. BAD FOOD The food was subpar. The service was quick. The environment felt lacking. I was not happy with the breaded shrimp still have the poop vein as you can see in the pictures. Chicken was crunchy on the inside felt like chewing leather. Why make ribs if they are going to look like the one in the picture. Just a big no for me. Kroger brand chocolate. I know times are tough but really come on, at 40 dollars for my 3year old, my girlfriend and I, really expected more. It’s chocolate even if you go through a bottle in two days or three 5 dollar bottle shouldn’t be that much of a problem. Even order it in bulk. Only thing that redeemed our dinner was the sushi, it was all I started eating at the end of the meal. I had about 4 plates of it to make sure we got our money’s worth. All in all I will not be back. I know it’s family owned and I wish to not say anything bad but it was not good.
Panda Express
Honestly I usually eat here at least once a week, however it’s been about a month since my last visit. Mind you Panda is one of my favorite restaurants to eat at. (And had this location given me reason to leave a good review so far I would have) but I’ve had mediocre service everytime I come in. When I arrived not only was the staff as slow as they could be scooping food and cashing customers out (during a 5-6pm rush) also half of the employees in the restaurant were not wearing hear nets. (At first I didn’t care) being a culinary graduate I hated hair nets. But when i got home I found multiple small hairs in my orange chicken and 2 very long black hairs. I most definitely won’t be back.
I go to this location at least once a month and it's been very reliable for the last 2 years but today was the worst plate I've received. The taste was okay kinda bland (maybe it was sitting for a while?). What upset me was I ordered beef and broccoli but they gave me only broccoli and two small pieces of beef.
Golden Wok
The food here is different compared to other Chinese resturants. There is a sign right when you come in making claims on freshness, and quality and I have to agree. Solid portions and the food is always yummy and quite frankly the best fried rice I have had in a long time!
I decided to try out this Chinese restaurant after seeing some positive reviews, but my experience was far from what I expected. My order was for takeout, and the interaction over the phone should have been my first red flag. The woman taking my order was rude, rushed me through the call, and didn’t even tell me the total—just said it would be ready in 10 minutes. When I arrived to pick up the food, I was shocked to find that the total was $50 for just two meals, which included egg rolls and crab rangoons. That price felt way too high for what we got, but at that point, I was already there and just hoped the food would be worth it. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. Lo Mein: Extremely disappointing. The noodles were way overcooked, making them mushy, and the dish itself was completely bland—no seasoning, no flavor, just a pile of tasteless noodles. Fried Rice: One of the few redeeming parts of the meal. It had good flavor and was cooked well. Bourbon Chicken: Actually really good. It was flavorful, well-cooked, and had a nice balance of sweetness and smokiness. If anything, this was the highlight of the meal. Crab Rangoons: Just okay. They weren’t bad, but they weren’t great either—about a 6/10. They lacked the rich, creamy filling that makes a great crab rangoon. Egg Rolls: Nothing special. Definitely not worth the inflated price.
Panda Express
This is only my second time eating at a Panda Express, first time at this location. I stopped in at 4pm. I was greeted when I walked in, but as soon as I inquired about a lot of the food being old and almost emptied one worked just said “oh yea its that time of the day you know”..so I got the few items that looked decent and one was the honey walnut shrimp which was the only item that was actually hot and fresh. I had two rice balls I couldn’t even break apart with my fork because of how long it had sat out. The real issue is the fact that I was the only colored person in there besides my accompanying friend, they immediately got fresh rice as soon as my plate was done as well as one of the other two items in inquired about in the beginning. I felt personally offended because when the next few customers who were Caucasian received nice hot and fresh food. While I sat and ate old rice, beef and chicken. I will not come to this location again.
Ordered the small bowl with white rice and the new bourbon chicken. The rice was nice and fluffy and the chicken was crisp with a nice kick of heat from the collab with Hot Ones. Staff was efficient and friendly.
Panda Express
Scammers as employees. Refuse to return my gift card or show me a zero balance. Do not give your business to these clowns. Absolutely ridiculous service.
Ordered a medium Sweet Fire Chicken, for $9 and there were literally 4 small pieces of chicken and 75% Pineapple, Onions, etc. Unacceptable. Very disappointing.
