    Eggplant w.Green Beans-
    Samantha W.

    We ordered the eggplant green bean stir fry dish, steamed shrimp dumplings and the fried rice. The food was pretty good. Not the best shrimp dumplings I've ever had but they weren't bad! The restaurant was relatively busy and maybe they had online orders as well, it seemed our fried rice might've been forgotten and it was brought out sometime after we asked about it. We heard a bunch of tables around us also had forgotten and/or late orders. Might've been an extra busy night for them. I think the fried rice would be yummier if it had that wok hay char aroma. For southern Oregon, it's a 4. If it weren't in a small town, it would be more like a 3ish

    Found some pretty good Chinese food in Medford. The Szechuan dishes were really good. The La Zi Chicken had a really good kick. The Cumin Lamb, Chow Mein and Salt and Pepper wings were just standard. The Dry Pot Calamari was the star. Tender, lightly fried calamari with Szechuan spices were perfect. Potatoes in the dish didn't seem to belong. I don't know if I've ever had potato in a Chinese dish ever. Service was good and fast. Highly recommend this place if in Medford.

    You will get peppers galore with the La Tzi Chicken entree. I love it, but order with caution!

    A common complaint in Southern Oregon is the lack of great Chinese restaurants, and we're lucky for Dragon Express to put those critics to rest. Now that we've had the opportunity to visit multiple times, I feel we can make a fair assessment of the overall menu, and Dragon Express is the emperor of Chinese food in the area. With a large menu that includes classic American Chinese options in addition to more authentic fare, this restaurant can be a crowd pleaser for a range of preferences. If you want to go with stateside standbys of orange chicken or broccoli beef, you can't go wrong. The dim sum offerings are solid: xiao long bao (soup dumplings), har gao (shrimp dumpling) or siu mai (mixed dumpling) are what you'd expect and will please the table. If you're feeling more adventurous or are banging on the table for 'authentic' options, there is a submenu for such a palate. I am semi-addicted to their La Tzi Chicken, which is like a peppercorn/chili infused and topped chicken plate. Strangely on the menu, it has no 'hot pepper' indicator, but trust me, it's more like 3 peppers. If you are a pepper belly like me, this is a great one, but otherwise, go tamer. Service always seems a bit slammed, but they do a solid job. It's probably because everyone is starting to discover this place. Takeout is a brisk business on top of the dine-in crowd. The ambience is a little meh, but that's what you get with a chinese restaurant built inside an old Bobbio's pizza location. This place is worth the drive for me. And yes, there are robots that assist in the service.

    Dragon Express showed potential for a 5 star review but some mistakes lowered this review to 3 stars. The night started with missing a table setting. Not a deal breaker but when you have to chase down your server after the food arrives is an issue. The timing of the food service was off. They sent the robot out dish by dish so one could eat while the rest watched. My La Zi Chicken was an afterthought. Everyone was eating and we had to ask the server to check on that dish. It took another 10 minutes to come out. And even then it was missing the rice. The standout dish was my granddaughter's Chow mein. It was some of the best we had tasted. The hot and sour soup was just okay as were the spring rolls. The La Zi Chicken had great flavor but was not as crispy as others I had tried before. Coors Light was not ice cold and water served with tiny metal cups was somewhat strange. Not bad but not great. Kind of average and therefore 3 stars.

    The food is so yummy and fresh. I ordered the Mar far chicken with fried rice and pot stickers which were so delicious. I will be coming back it's so darn good

    hands-down the most authentic Chinese spot in the valley! Their menu offers a wide range of dishes, from delicious xiao long bao to mouthwatering roasted duck, plus a variety of noodles and fried rice. Portions are generous--enough for 2-3 people per dish. I especially love their dim sum, noodles, and fried rice. The best part? Their food delivery is just as good as dining in, making it super convenient to enjoy at home!

    Mongolian Beef-

    Fantastic Chinese food!! We ordered Egg Drop soup 10/10, Hot and Sour Soup 10/10. Mongolian Beef xtra hot 10/10 and sautéed cabbage xtra hot 10/10. Restaurant is very clean, staff extremely friendly, food arrived freshly cooked and hot. My new go to Chinese restaurant! Thank you so much!!

    As a Chinese person living in the U.S., I have to give this restaurant a huge shout-out. Honestly, after spending so many years in both China and the United States, I've never come across a Chinese restaurant that does both American Chinese food and authentic Chinese cuisine this well. I had a chance to chat with the owner and learned that the two chefs in the kitchen are both experienced chefs from Sichuan, China. Finding a restaurant with this much character and genuine warmth in a small city like this is truly a blessing. One thing I really appreciate is that they thoughtfully offer both an American-style menu and an authentic Chinese menu. And to all my American friends reading this review: please give the authentic menu a try! As someone who grew up in China, I can confidently say that their authentic dishes are better than many of the expensive "authentic" Chinese restaurants I've visited in places like Los Angeles and New York, where there are much larger Chinese communities.

    Wonton Soup-
    Ginalee P.

    Delicious. Fast service . I also like the Chicken chow mein and the Thai tea. The wonton soup has delicious dumpling. The place is not overcrowded which is nice.

    Authentic Chinese cuisine, that's all I would say and ofc I am very satisfied with the taste and the overall dining experience (warm service, clean tables, etc.). 5 stars!

    La Zi Chicken- Crab Puffs(8)-
    Doris M.

    Ordered via door dash and boy this is hot fresh and delicious. The La Zi chicken is a must-try dish. Spicy and flavorful and complex. I am very happy with my order!

    Our first visit to Dragon Express. This is a roomy, clean restaurant. A robotic serving tray will deliver your meals to the table. This was a first such experience for the three of us. The food? Excellent. We had fried rice, beans & steak, and orange chicken. Every entree is perfectly prepared and presented nicely. HIghly recommended.

    Authentic Chinese food in the Rogue Valley! This is truly something to be excited about. I live in Grants Pass so I have to drive down to eat there and have eaten there a few times. They have a pickled fish soup, which is amazing! The fish is poached and melts in your mouth like a dream. It sounds weird, but it is incredible. I've also had the Szechuan ribs. Tasty tasty tasty. My wife really enjoys their curried chicken. It may be less authentic, but it is still delicious. The rogue valley has needed a restaurant like this for sometime. It sure would be nice if they could expand up to Grants Pass! I could personally make it worth their while.

Claudia, our waitress, handled it all with incredible professionalism. She was attentive, efficient, and always one step ahead. Despite juggling our table while also keeping up with the rest of the restaurant-including making drinks-she never once seemed flustered, overwhelmed, or impatient. She kept everything flowing smoothly and made sure every person in our group felt taken care of. It's rare to see someone maintain such a positive attitude and high level of service under pressure. If we return to this restaurant, I'll definitely be hoping she's our server again. She made a lasting impression, and she deserves every bit of recognition for the excellent job she does.
