It was so good , fair prices , please support small business !! This over panda any day.

Bad reviews are from previous owners, so please take that into consideration and give them a try. Absolutely delicious and even though it's a 20 minute drive for us....its going to be in our regular rotation. read more

I'm not even sure where to start with this place. I found it 2 days ago from someone on tiktok. I saw it was a 25 minute drive and decided to try it out with my boyfriend. The inside of the store is super clean and there are a lot of cute decorations. They have a bunch of signs posted all over the restaurant of the menu items, so ordering it easy. Everything we ordered was phenomenal. Also the nice lady who helped us was so sweet and helpful (and she offered us samples!). We got chow mein, rice, orange chicken, bbq pork, sweet and sour pork, teriyaki chicken, cream cheese wontons, spring rolls, and their signature boba milk tea from their milk tea bar. We first tried the boba while they packed our order and all I can say is wow. I think it's genuinely the best milk tea I've ever had (and I drink a lot of milk tea lol). We tried to wait until we got home to try the food but it smelled so good we couldn't, so we had some appetizers on the way. I had a cream cheese wonton with the sweet & sour sauce and it was soooooo good. We then tried the veggie egg rolls and I've never had such good egg rolls! They come with 4 per order and they're huge! So fresh too! I think the best part was the crunch; the outside was super super crunchy and the veggies inside were cooked to perfection -- not soggy or mushy at all! I don't eat meat so my mom and bf ate all the meat items and they had great things to say. My mom (who's supposed to be on a diet lol) couldn't stop eating her sweet & sour pork! The nice lady who helped us also threw in some chicken egg rolls for us to try and my boyfriend loved them. This place is for sure a 10/10, we will be back! (Pictures of food were taken from our home, not the restaurant) read more

Definitely my new favorite hot try Chinese food place, Everything has a more unique flavor (sweetness & spices). I've been here twice and Have tried broccoli beef, teriyaki chicken, potatoe chicken, BBQ pork, egg rolls and orange chicken. All great and now my favorite versions of these selections now are from them. read more

Love coming here, The food is good, the plafe clean and ppl are friendly and nice, also is not very expensive which makes great,

The food definitely tasted like leftovers. The cash only was an inconvenience. This is one of the only spots where the food isn't falling out of the box. Not generous with the meat. read more

Great food at cheap prices & lovely workers! Definitely coming back here for a third time. LOL

Welcome new owners! Improvement on the ambience and Food tasted better this time around. They are friendly and very welcoming!

When a Chinese fast food joint doesn't offer samples, they should expect customers who eat there to occasionally want to return an item. This is why samples are given out, to avoid wastage. Pandemic or not, it's a convenience for the seller and the buyers. The "BBQ pork" there is atrocious! Typical good BBQ pork is pink &/or red on the outer edge with a moist, light gray-toned center. As we've grown accustomed to getting. Theirs was dark, brick red. It was so over cooked the the moment the fork attempts to go through it, it splits in half. It's that dry & over cooked. See the photos. And when I asked to exchange it out for another item, she smugly looks at you and smiles, saying "no." Why in the hell did this place have a 4.x review on Google is beyond me. Avoid this place like the plague. Yoshinoya is better than this Alpo... In fact, Alpo is better than this trash. Such a waste of pork. read more

Service was quick! But no ac. Orange chicken was hard. Wasn't sure if I was eating Mexican candy or the food of what I ordered. I didn't like it was cash only. Love it or hate it. But this place wasn't for me. read more

Honestly have been going to this Chinese restaurant since I was in high school. I would recommend the teriyaki chicken because it is totally different from any other Chinese restaurants I have had. Their egg rolls are so good. I also got milk tea from them because I saw it advertised but it was a bit too sweet for my liking so I wouldn't recommend getting that. One of the downside of this restaurant is it only takes cash no debit. read more

We have been eating here for over 10 years, it has not changed much, the prices are low compared to other places. The orange chicken is the bomb! They have inside seating , but not to much. We usually take ours home, we live very close by. read more

Gave this place a chance since yelp reviews werent so great.. i got half and half fried rice and chow mein with double orange chicken. Orange chicken and chow mein had good flavor but the chicken was a bit bready. Fried rice was acceptable (7/10) Completely fine for the price and quick takeout chinese. Ill be back again read more

I've been coming here since I was in Junior High School... that should tell you how old the place is. It's went through a few owners in its lifetime, but for the most part, the food has remained decent throughout the years. Is the best quality? Nope. But if you want something quick on your lunch break or large quantities of food because you're starving, then this will definitely do the trick. A two-item combo is about $5.89 and it's loaded with your choice of rice and chow mein and two meaty options. I tend to not like take-out places' chow mein, and usually always opt for total rice. For Dragon Express, I'd have to say the orange chicken is their biggest winner. It's nice and crispy with a little bit of sweet. A big pet peeve of mine when ordering the poultry from these types of places is that the breading can be soggy, or it's like sucking on candy. I think it's a good balance. For the most part, the place always seems to be on the slower side. It's not the most updated restaurant, but it's clean and the owners are really friendly. They don't take cards, so you'd better have that cash ready if you're gonna eat here. read more

The best Chinese fast food restaurant I've ever been to. My family and I have actually been loyal customers since 1996 or so, and their food has never failed on us. Everything tastes just right! We always order fried rice, chow mein, orange chicken, and pepper steak altogether, and they give you LOTS of food all for under $10. I went to Panda Express today and a tiny bowl of fried rice and orange chicken cost me that much, unfortunately, and it didn't even taste good whatsoever. But anyways, this place is just awesome, and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area (or visiting the area) to stop by if they have any cravings for Chinese takeout. The staff is friendly as well. I hope they never, ever close up! read more

Dragon Express - a takeout box of chinese food - Chinese Near Me - Anaheim, California

This place has some bomb Chinese food. The servers behind the counter were super nice and they are not stingy with the portions. You can get a huge meal for only $5.19 and a large drink for only a $1. That's a deal. I had the orange chicken, BBQ pork, rice, and chow mein. It is hard to find good BBQ pork. As I was in line other customers raved about the great food. Only downfall is the location is a bit on the sketchy side. But the food itself makes up for it. I will definitely go back and try some more entrees. read more

Dragon Express - Orange chicken. BBQ pork. Chow mein. Rice. - Chinese Near Me - Anaheim, California

The chow mien has no flavor. The bbq chicken was like beef jerky. And they gave you only a small scoop. The orange chicken is okay. My kids enjoyed the white rice. The wontons are legit just cream cheese: not your typical flavoring or added ingredients. And it's cash only. My husband left and got cash out for a very disappointing meal. I think we'll take the long drive to la Habra for twin dragons the next time we want Chinese food. read more

I was a little wary because there was no one in the restaurant when we went in the other night. We ordered pot stickers, won ton soup, egg foo young, garlic chicken, teriyaki chicken, orange chicken along with beef and broccoli. Equaling 3 combo meals, pot stickers, side of egg foo young, and one bowl of soup. Pot stickers, soup and egg foo young were prepared fresh and took a little longer than the others that were in the warming counter. Typical Chinese fast food. But it was decent. Pot stickers hot and fresh..yummy... The noodles included in the combo meals were ok. The soup was delish as it was a cold night. Garlic chicken, spicy good. Egg foo young good but there was not enough sauce, weird. Orange chicken good, not a lot of orange flavor though. The teriyaki chicken was yummy, nice flavor and coating. But the teriyaki sauce was on the side, again weird. I'm used to the teriyaki sauce on the chicken. Either way the teriyaki chicken was good. I didn't try the beef and broccoli, it looked meh..... the slurry made for the BF/Brc looked grey. Not so appetizing. Broccoli on the side of the dish. In any case the majority of food was good, priced right and the couple running the restaurant were super nice. We spent less than $40 for four people including drinks.. FYI: They charge for soda refills based on size.. read more

Great fast Chinese Express food! Served hot, the picture looks messy cause we started eating, but got the combo C. Beef broccoli, orange chicken, fried potstickers and half rice and chow mein all for $12. The egg roll was complimentary with the combo! The lady and gentleman who worked there were very nice and attentive, Def recommend coming to this spot! read more

Dragon Express - a tray of chinese food and a plate of fried chicken - Chinese Near Me - Anaheim, California

Been here a few times with the family. The lady ALWAYS hooks us up like she's feeding an army! I love supporting Mom and Pop shops like this. Prices are very good compared to how much food they give. We usually buy 3 (2 item) combos to share between the 4 of us. Always good with a return visit! read more

Dragon Express - The 2 item combo can feed 2 people! - Chinese Near Me - Anaheim, California

4.5 Stars! Its hard to find a good Chinese takeout place these especially in Anaheim. You wont go wrong here. The food is packed with flavor and it fresh every 5 min or so. Why? Because every time you come into this place there is a line! Rule of thumb for restaurants is "If there is a line out the door, the food is good." The only downside to this place is that they only take cash. Dragon Express please let us use our Debit and Credit cards...who walks around with cash these days? Some of your favorite Asian dishes are not on the menu so you may need to ask them if they can make it. ( f.ex: Cream Cheese Won Tons.) read more

My family has been going here forever. The portions are extra generous, and the food is great. The orange chicken is the best I've ever had.

cute little place! Very affordable with big portions. Can't beat the price & quality.

Not the best Chinese I've ever had. It's almost like a fast food chain. The food is always cold and tough and the staff is not very pleasant. I have to give credit where it's due. Their noodles are really good, regardless of if they are cold. The service is not that great either. They just kind of push the food down along the line and then stick their hand out asking for your cash. There are places less than a mile from here that are a lot better. Just saying this place could use some work, in all areas read more

Your typical mom-and-pop Chinese fast-food joint. Early reminder that a 3-star rating means it's A-OK (according to yelp). First, the place is run down. That's hardly a reason to mark off points. Though, the tables looked like they had not been cleaned for hours. Fortunately they had a tray and extra napkins so nothing of mine would have to touch a surface. There were a handful of people inside eating despite it being 3pm on a Sunday. Seemed like a good indication. Even though everyone was actually eating, it seemed like most of them were loitering while waiting for their laundry to finish next door. Lady was nice and friendly, big plus to me. I ordered the two-item combo (amazing price of $5.19 I think?). Portions were quite large as well. Half-and-half with chow-mein and fried rice. In retrospect, this was quite good as I'm used to most places having too much oil that the food is literally sparking. Not here. And it tasted just as good. Two items I ordered were orange chicken and jalapeno chicken. Orange chicken was.... different! In a good way. Wasn't the twice-over-super-fried-morsel-of-chicken-inside-lots-of-batter. A good flavor, too. Bonus points. Jalapeno chicken was a huge let down. Wasn't quite spicy, wasn't quite salty, didn't exactly taste like anything I could put my finger on. I mostly avoided it over the course of my meal. This is definitely a spot I would go back to if I'm too lazy to drive somewhere else, but it's not exactly great either. Maybe next time I'll try to stop by at a peak time when all the food will be fresh so it may taste better? All in all, decent food, great price. Will go back. read more

Dragon Express - Combo A (left) and B (right) - Chinese Near Me - Anaheim, California

The reason why i'm giving this place a 4 star is because 1: its a mom and pop place. 2: the orange chicken is GOOD (different but good) for everything else, meh. I got the two item meal (combo B I think?) which is $5.19 and it somehow jumped up to $5.71 with tax. Still cheap. The chowmein was meh. Not good, not bad, meh. Easily forget-able. The potato chicken was terrible. The spices (pepper?) made it un-edible for me. Will not order again. read more

FINALLY! 3rd time was a charm this night. After visiting 2 other chinese food locations that would not accept our form of payment for the night, we found ourselves here! We haven't been here in years as well so it was nice to be back! I love this place! The ladies are so sweet and they give cute little plates to make you feel at home when you dine in! How stinkin' cute is that!? I will admit though, I personally was NOT a fan of the Orange Chicken this time.. It has almost like a brown sugar crust and I just wasn't feeling that what so ever. Everything else was really good though. We got fresh veggies rolls that were nothing short of perfection! The chow mein is superb. Not greasy or anything, that makes me happy. I didn't get that gross bloated feeling after eating it. read more

I love dragon express, I miss those Saturday afternoons when my friends and I would drop by for our Chinese food fix. The food is always fresh, and the workers so nice. Can't wait to go back! read more

I went to lunch here with a couple of co-workers that had a craving for some chinese. They enjoyed their food and it seemed like a low price for 3 people (it was under 20 dollars). I thought the food was very bland, I didn't finish even close to half of my bowl...So why the 1 star review?!!?! When we were picking up our plates a cockroach emerged from our booth and started crawling around our table.......really?!? I'm surprised the health department has not shut them down to get rid of them! I will most definitely never return or recommend this place to anyone!! read more

Horrible place, customer service is horrible, no variety of food, nothing is prepared at all, all you will get is a small spoonful of your item. They are very greedy with what they serve. To top it off, the rice is very stale and has no flavor at all, the orange chicken is absolutely horrible and no flavor, the food is cheaply priced and now I know why! I would never go there again, save your time and go to a better Chinese food place, don't let the prices fool you ! read more

Stay away from this place..after eating here I had really bad food poisoning. I'm surprised this place is even still in business.

What can I say. Hmmm ok. Why two stars? because the kung pao chicken has no flavor, because their chow mein is too soggy, because they don't have much selection. We come here because their portions I must say are better than any other chinese fast food place in the area, and it's good to satisfy that chinese food craving I get at times. The orange chicken is ok, not the best, but at least is not overly breaded, the rice is also ok. Their food always seems like it's been sitting there for a while, so presentation wise it is not appealing. I must say the lady over the counter is really nice. I guess bottom line is my husband is too lazy to drive around to a BETTER tasting chinese joint. Will I come back? Maybe... read more
