Ok really a 3 star experience but efficiency in ordering and tasty crab Rangoons...I will elevate those to 4 stars. I called in order 15 before pickup. Order was ready. Covid precautions are definitely in place at this place. General Tso Chicken was good. Rice was okay. Came with egg roll, this was also ok. Prices were fair. Unsure if I would get a meal from here again but I would order some more crab ragoons. read more

Good classic American Chinese food. My go-to is a combo platter of sweet and sour chicken and general tso chicken which the crab rangoon

Got the beef with garlic sauce & chicken with garlic sauce. Price was good (lunch special). Steak had a very off-putting taste and onions were not cooked (tasted like raw onions). Better options in South Madison for sure. read more

Delicious, fast, fresh, fair priced! I'm so lucky to have this little place here in verona. They have a lot of options, so I'll have to go back. The orange chicken is tangy and crunchy, like Panda Express on their best day. Hot and spicy chicken is just how it sounds, and also really good! There's no indoor seating but they pack to-go really nicely. Also a big portion AND we did the lunch special. My picture is half the original portion - I couldn't wait to eat it! read more

Dragon City - Orange chicken/fried rice lunch - Chinese Near Me - Verona, Wisconsin

Would love a dine-in option, but hey, the prices are decent, your order's ready on time, and the food's exactly what you'd expect (which for me is almost perfect some days). read more

Great humble food! Not WOW (nothing flashy or exotic)!! in terms of ingredients but very well made food made by good people! Good price and would definitely order again! read more

THIS IS A 3 1/2 STAR REVIEW...but can't get Yelp to allow 1/2 stars. OK: 1. To the cynic who thinks a positive review must be canned...you need another hobby... 2. It's Christmas Day 2019. It is the ONLY place open...and business is very brisk for a small town place (VERONA, WI - pop. approximately 11,000). People are happy...they know the owners...this place can't be all bad. 3. I had (a) small wonton soup (b) crab rangoon (c) General Tsao chicken special / fried rice / chicken / egg roll (d) a can of soda. 4. Basic take out quality food - but that's NOT bad. Large quantities although I wish that they be a bit more creative with spices... I left happy. The family that owns the place DOES seem friendly. The "critics" just need to check THEIR attitude and bias at the door!! read more

A great takeout option that always delivers tasty food at good prices quickly! It's absolutely a go-to takeout spot for my family!

Dragon City gets the job done if you're in close proximity and craving some quick Chinese food. The quality is average, but the menu has the staples. read more

Food was fine, ready on time, and prices good. However the interior still looks like a poorly constructed home made Covid setup that needs to bd removed. read more

I ordered chicken with broccoli. The portion size was large, but taste was not good. The broccoli tasted old and the chicken was in such small pieces that it didn't really look like chicken. I literally ate a small amount and the tossed the rest out. Ten plus dollars wasted read more

Ordered take out once here. Ordered over the phone and had not been there. The food was ok and service was ok and nobody fell sick, But the place is pretty scary. Not very clean, boxes of oil and other ingredients all stored in the kitchen area. Wonder if there any inspectors who inspect, advise and guide these small family restaurants about safety read more

Not bad at all. Just wish we could order online. Love their teriyaki chicken. We've tried the General Tso's chicken and the orange chicken. Both decent as well. It's not Chin's Asia Fresh but it satisfies our cravings and hunger. Lots of food/leftovers for a decent price. We want to try the lemon chicken next. Heard good things. read more

What an absolute joke. I get that we are all in a pandemic, and expectations are low. Called in, was told an hour. Two hours later they keep saying 20 more minutes. Terrible service. After two hours didn't even get what we had ordered and gave up. Won't be coming back. read more

I regularly order the szechuan chicken/shrimp off the lunch menu (I love the snow peas). The food is good, fairly priced, and you get large portions. read more

Have eaten here about 50 times over the past 8 years. Usually it's pretty good and the prices are fair. The lunch specials are very good values. I enjoy the Hunan entrees, as well as the lemon and orange chicken. I'll continue to stop by. I like this place much better than the other Chinese restaurant in Verona. read more

This family that runs this restaurant is very inventive. Covid-19 pandemic? No problem! When you walk in the whole counter is sealed off. They set your food in a bin on their side and you pick up a door on your side to retrieve. Some of our favorites are the Hot and Sour Soup And chicken mei fun! read more

Hey, I'm a fan, but you have to judge this place based on what it is: a classic American-Chinese food joint in a strip mall that specializes in take-away. If you accept that going in you won't be disappointed (and I think it's better than many other similar options in the Madison area). If you're inclined for spicy food, ask them to turn it up a notch, I find the spiciness levels to be underestimated. I've only eaten in the restaurant once, but I would suggest getting takeout and eating at home--atmosphere is a bit lacking. Servings are generous, we always end up with leftovers! Really, not much more to say. If this kind of Chinese food is what you're looking for, you won't be disappointed. read more

If you're looking for "real" Chinese food, best go elsewhere. That aside, this is one of my favorite joints for good "American" Chinese. The place isn't large, more or less a hole in the wall. The staff is pretty friendly and is quick to get your food ready when it's not busy. However, they do struggle to keep up with a number of customers when it's busier. Be prepared to wait a while (never more than 30 min). Decor is complete with the manager's daughter and her TV. Fun! Don't expect to bring larger groups here, as the place seats 20 at the most, and even then, it's a squeeze. The food is pretty good and is consistently so. Have been there 10+ times and never disappointed. You can expect plenty of sauce on your giant amount of chicken/beef/whatever with a solid side of rice (white or fried, your choice). Lunch specials are hard to pass up at a whopping $5.01 for a drink and a hefty helping of whatever you ordered. Don't see what you want on the lunch menu? No problem - just ask them for it, they've been happy to comply. We've also done dinner for a group before and the amount of food we got was massive. The bag alone weighed close to 15 lbs. Worth a try! read more

This is an old, run down, filthy place. Yes they work hard and are friendly, but probably understaffed to maintain their restaurant, which has a food truck atmosphere. The food itself was ok. The lunch special was actually a good deal and tasty. For take out it might be ok, but it's not really a restaurant. read more

I stayed at the hotel across the street, so it was a short walk to the establishment. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken combo which comes with pork fried rice and an egg roll. Didn't have to wait long at all, maybe 5-7 minutes after I ordered. The meal was pretty standard as takeout Chinese food goes. It had a large portion, enough for two meals. The egg roll wasn't fabulous but I'm usually picky about egg rolls so I don't hold it against them. The sweet and sour sauce for the chicken was pretty thin (watery) and I'm used to something a little thicker. The chicken tasted fine on its own or dipped in something else (mustard and duck sauce). I put soy sauce on the rice and it tasted same as any other pork fried rice Overall it wasn't bad and I will return on my next visit. read more

Dragon City - Sweet and sour chicken with pork fried rice (egg roll already in my belly!) - Chinese Near Me - Verona, Wisconsin

For fast food Chinese this place is really quite good. They don't skimp on the chicken like some places do and the flavors are pretty good. Always hot and totally inexpensive. I give 4 stars because I think the flavor could be better on some dishes. Went back recently. Food flavor was not as good as in the past. I've had much better Chinese food from other places over the past two years. We hardly go here anymore. I lower them 1 star to three now as it is ok in a pinch. read more

Always happy with the food and service Dragon City! Always done fast and accurate. Use real vegetable portions instead of chopped/cubed pieces... large whole pea pods, florets of broccoli, slices of mushroom, etc. Crab rangoon are great and so are fried or boiled dumplings. read more

Absolutely the worst takeout ever. Have been here several times but last Friday all 3 entrees were in the trash after a couple bites. Did not call them, I just won't make the mistake again of being lazy and not driving to Chang Jiang on Raymond Road. This place told me they couldn't take payment over the phone also! read more

Good hot sour soup and eggrolls. I did not care for the style of chicken in the cashew chicken, it was fried and either breaded or with skin. Tons of cashews, which is refreshing as most places like to skimp. They pack in a lot of food with a side of pork fried rice. I would try again with one of their 'healthy' dishes or all veggie dishes. read more

This was close to our hotel and we ordered a small chicken Lo mein, pork egg rolls and orange chicken. Everything was flavorful and freshly prepared. They go above and beyond regarding covid precautions if this is a concern of yours. Our take out was very neatly packaged. The portion sizes were very generous. Good bang for the buck! read more

As an Asian, I like to try Asian food restaurant first every where I go. I went there to have lunch the first time I arrived in Verona for a week of work. I ordered a stir fry rice noodles, she was rude and the beef tasted weird, I believe its spoiled or far from fresh. and the noodle was tasteless, trust me, I m not a picky person, I never finished half of the plate. terrible. I hope they improve !! read more

This restaurant is really good, especially beef. (I forget the name.) Also, it is not expensive. I was enjoying eating at this restaurant. If I have time, I will go again:) read more

I've been coming here for about 12 years and they're fantastic. They're extremely speedy, accurate with special orders, and portion sizes are fantastic. Lunch specials are well-priced. I recommend them without hesitation. read more

I like to judge a chinese restaurant by their shrimp fried rice. It tells me how good their chef is with flavor, how fresh the ingredients are since it is seafood, and how powerful the wok is to get that nice finish for the fried rice. The shrimp was mushy and old, the rice was not flavorful. Second time I've come here. I was not impressed the first time around, and definitely not impressed this time when I tried to give it another chance. Too bad, damn... read more

Didn't care for this place during my last visit. I ordered the beef fried rice and it didn't have any flavor. Also, I needed an itemized receipt to expense the purchase and couldn't get it. read more

Middle of the road Chinese food but sad to say it's the best in Verona Wi. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very depressing I can tell it's a family business and the family isn't happy to be working there. If you want basic Chinese food this is your spot. read more

First, I like hole-in-the-wall restaurants. This is one of those in a small, older strip in an up & coming area in Verona. If you want friendly, and that's import to you, you will be dearly disappointed. Very matter-of-fact service. Think a smile might have exercised muscles the owner has never used. But... I ordered a chicken with garlic combo to take back to the hotel. It was good, really good. Right amount of chicken with crisp veggies and tasty sauce. Fried rice not overly greasy. Egg roll small, but good. Pleasant surprise, really. And right across from my hotel! read more

We enjoy the food we "take out" from here. The owners are always pleasant and our orders are always "spot on". We especially like the General's tofu, house special ho fun & crab Rangoon. Bottom line:Family owned & operated little biz with nice take out in a small town. read more

Pretty run of the mill as far as Chinese food goes. Their lunch specials are pretty good, and inexpensive. They charge about $6 for a lunch portion of many of their entrees and that includes fried rice and a can of soda. The full dinner menu is available at lunch time as well at the usual price, but I do think the lunch menu has a lot of great selections to choose from. My favorite item from Dragon City, so far has been the lemon chicken. The breading on the chicken is very flavorful and the lemon sauce is light. The crab Rangoon is also pretty good as far as side items go, and the egg rolls are exactly what you would expect. It does make me a little sad that they don't deliver. Delivery options in general on this side of town are pretty limited, so to have a decent Chinese restaurant that doesn't deliver is disappointing...but oh well. All in all, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat at Dragon City, but I know that when I do eat there it will be very decent and it will be cheap. read more

I'm amazed that this place has gotten good reviews. It is absolute crap. Do not bother wasting your money on this food it is extremely disappointing. I guess if you want decent Chinese food you need to drive 2-3 hours to the Chicagoland area where even the worst place would be better than this. sigh... read more

I was in town for work and decided to try this spot since it was right across from the hotel. I had the sesame chicken and house fried rice. Both were just basic. The sesame chicken was more gristle and breading than chicken, and the house fried rice seemed like it was thawed and quickly scrambled to order. Skimpy chicken shreds, no savory flavors that you normally get from wok-fried onions, eggs and veggies. I definitely will skip this spot next time I'm in town... read more

I had a lunch menu here a couple of months ago. Not impressed, as a matter of fact recommend staying away. But reading reviews, people are speaking better of the place. May have to give it a second chance. 1 star until I can eat there again. Prices very affordable! read more

Well we ordered the egg foo yung which was burnt, brown sauce was watery, and the sweet and sour chicken (chicken was hard) perhaps over cooked. Disappointed! We will not be returning. read more

Finally! A great Chinese lunch spot. It's got that cozy / dive feel but the food is fresh and tasty. I love eating here.
