One of my favorite Chinese restaurants around. I love the general tso's chicken and the orange chicken is also delicious. I don't LOVE their fried rice, it has a smokiness to it that I'm not crazy about, but overall the food is great and I love the location and drive thru option read more

Third time ordering, twice my order was not what was ordered. First time it was fixed, I think it was an error in the order taker. This time I ordered "Pearl of the seven seas" $16.50. It's supposed to be crab shrimp scallop in sauce with baby corn and straw mushrooms. I ordered this for the reason of the mushrooms. I get it it has no mushrooms at all. It has TONS of pea pods, bamboo, celery, water chestnuts and I counted 12 pieces of seafood, like none for the size. I call and they said no, no mushroom when I'm staring at the menu I saw online and have a paper copy in front of me. There's maybe enough meat for one serving and then one serving of just veggies and a whole crap load of sauce. Do better. I won't be back, and they're 3 minutes from me! read more

Dragon Gate - Seven seas.. fail! Don't be fooled, those aren't scallops, they're water chestnuts. Where's my straw mushrooms???? - Chinese Near Me - Parma Heights, Ohio

Oh how the mighty have fallen....there was a time I considered Dragon Gate the best of the best! Went there for every birthday. Now? I'm not sure they are worth it at any price. Still the best egg rolls in the game and the wonton soup, when the noodles aren't boiled to death, is still great. But with each passing visit, I keep asking myself why am I returning. Nostalgia? Hanging on to a reputation that used to be? New ownership is destroying this place. They are cutting corners, raising prices and ruining recipes that stood the test of time. The shrimp appetizer is no different than butterfly shrimp I can buy in the frozen food section, definitely not homemade. Dragon gate has severely dropped the ball. read more

Greeted with a warm welcome. Seated quickly asked if we wanted booth or table. Food came out fairly quickly. The place was nicely decorated. Food is very delicious wife had the spare ribs lunch combo. I had just the pork fried rice. The egg roll is too die for... read more

I was disappointed with the service during my visit. The older server became visibly upset when I did not leave a tip, snatched my plate away, and rolled her eyes. This felt unprofessional and uncomfortable. Additionally, the chicken breast was served whole instead of being cut into pieces as it normally is. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations. read more

The rice tasted very old. The noodles did not taste good at all. Customer service was bad and all the food that I had tasted like was not fresh food really disappointed in this place. Ever since it became a different owner. read more

This restaurant is the BEST! First of all, the ambiance is very pleasant. It is very clean and nicely decorated. The music is especially relaxing. Our waitress was SO friendly, totally efficient and attentive. The menu is extensive and THE FOOD!!! OMG! SO DELICIOUS!!! We especially enjoyed the egg rolls and the vegetable fried rice, but our entrees were also excellent. The prices are very reasonable and the portions amazing. I HIGHLY recommend Dragon Gate. I know I will certainly return there again and again. Much appreciation to owners and staff for such a fine dining experience. read more

Dragon Gate is my favorite Chinese restaurant in all of Cleveland. The food has been flavorful for decades and they haven't skimped on portions. The service is friendly and super fast. Even after moving from Parma years ago the new location is quiet and relaxing too. Nothing fancy here, that's not needed with quality of food! read more

We just moved to the area and we decided to check out yelp. The reviews said this was a good place to check out for Chinese Food. So glad we did. The ambiance was pleasant and reminded me of the Chinese restaurants back in Boston. The server was super friendly and helpful when we had questions about the food we were ordering. We got the Cantonese family meal for 2 . It included wonton soup,a poo poo platter with two spear ribs/ two beef teriyaki/ 2 egg rolls / crab Rangoons. - the appetizers came out HOT and they were fresh! The meats were so tender as well as the other appetizers. The main dishes came with 2 entrees and fried rice . This meal was delicious and I am a Chinese Food snob and this place checked off all my boxes. We will be coming back for sure :) - sorry no picts we devoured it read more

Great food. Friendly staff. Soothing ambiance. Very generous portions. Always have a "to go" box for lunch the next day (if it lasts thru the nite). read more

Food was bad and immediately felt ill and shrimp and lobster sauce was so over sales I began to choke and Called over the server and was so inconsiderate and said I was out of line and nothing was wrong with the food . But I almost threw up and then did on the ride home Had to leave and was embarrassed by the server and was loud enough to make us look like food . Do not go here people my mother got food poisoning here after we went 3 weeks after but she did not know as we did not tell her of out experiance. read more

I've been there countless times and can't EVER remember an order that went south. The food is very flavorful and done by the time the server says the food will be ready! I'm surprised this has a rating less than 5 given how many people they serve per day! read more

Small restaurant off of Pearl at 130th. Average decor but everything was clean. Server was polite and quick to check on my meal. Nice. I had the empress chicken combination and added wanton soup and fried rice to bump it to $8. Inexpensive. The chicken was cooked well (still juicy) and the sauce was delicious. Really, everything was delicious. My usual order is sweet and sour duck which is great. Hot and sour soup is another favorite. Inexpensive, delicious and quick service. All good read more

Dragon Gate - Empress chicken combination lunch - Chinese Near Me - Parma Heights, Ohio

Absolutely Delicious! I haven't even finished eating, and I had to run to leave a review! I had the Walnut Chicken, white rice and crab Rangoon. Everything was delicious. The walnut sauce was wonderful. Highly recommend. The restaurant was full when I picked up my order. That says a lot these days. read more

I have tried this restaurant three times over the last 20 years. Each time I think that maybe it's gonna be better than the last time. Sadly, it is not. Everything tastes the same here. The soup tastes like hot salt water with very mushy wonton noodles. There is no pride of cooking happening here. The chicken almond din tastes like salted starch sauce with a few pieces of chicken and mostly plain vegetables. A few snipped up snow peapods, canned water chestnuts, and some chopped Napa cabbage stocks. Even the eggrolls are the frozen ones that they pop into the fryer. They have no fresh taste to them whatsoever. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend a thing on the menu here. Even the fried rice was hard and had no flavor. It's a shame that this is just another Chinese restaurant collecting a dime. read more

Found a local good Chinese place in Ohio. Some of best Chinese food I've had recently. Great service and food.

Ever since ken and may sold the quality of the food has gone downhill. Said something the last two times and the waitress and she was pulling at me asking me not to go. Made me and the wife feel very uncomfortable . Loved this place when ken and may had it. Even dined with them when they were on brookpark rd. read more

Three out of four of us didn't enjoy our meals. Orange chicken was dry and hard and the sauce was just off. General Tao's bean curd was good, asked for extra broccoli and no peppers but overall the amount of food was low. The drive thru is convenient. read more

Food terrible. Spareribs so dry. Pad Thai taste bad, no salt.Bad, bad , bad. Everything go to garbage.

The food is delicious, best soup around! We live in Strongsville and travel there for a great sit down meal. The staff is very nice, they care about their customers. read more

Best food ever! Crab Rangoons didn't make the picture... best in Ohio... I love that they add peppers,onions and ginger to the General Tsos Chicken... service is superb... food is superb... thank you read more

This restaurant is in my opinion, the best Cantonese Chinese restaurant in Cleveland! The food is freshly made AFTER you order! Their wonton soup is outstanding! Prices are extremely reasonable! Go! read more

I came here just to have the War Shu Gai. It doesn't come with peanuts or almonds. For a dollar extra, they added the almonds to the top. It was good, but not the best. Everyone loved theirs. read more

The food was fabulous! My first time here. The shrimp chips, wonton soup. Unbelievable!! The sweet and sour. Chicken was big pieces of chicken and breading was not thick. It was amazing I will be back for sure! read more

Dragon Gate - Sweet n sour chicken lunch special - Chinese Near Me - Parma Heights, Ohio

We have been ordering from Dragon Gate since they were located on Brookpark Road, which was a long time ago at this point. They never screw up an order - the food is reliably delicious, the portion sizes are always generous, it always comes exactly as you order it, and they're even kind enough to hand you a $3 or $5 gift certificate for your next visit every so often (we've received probably 4 or 5 of those by now), and that's just a very nice way for the place to thank us for our business. They're always friendly, we always feel welcome (and we always order take out, we rarely go out to eat), plus they have a drive through so you don't even have to get out of your car to pick up dinner from them. Aside from the great service and pleasant experience, the food is always awesome - the flavors are exactly right no matter what you order; whether it's General Tso chicken, Szechuan dishes or Singapore Mei Fun, everything is delicious and we always have leftovers for the next day because they are never stingy with the portions. I have been known to stretch the mei fun out over 3 meals, and it reheats very nicely. Also - the fried rice is brown (as it should be) and not yellow. This is by far the best Chinese restaurant in this area (or that I have ever personally tried) - I had just yesterday had the displeasure of eating at a very disappointing (other) Chinese place, which made me realize that I should be propping up Dragon Gate on Yelp because I was reminded that good Chinese food isn't common. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Be sure to give them a try if you're looking for a reliably great dining experience. read more

Always ordered the same thing, and it's always been just as good as the last time. Price is reasonable. Great food and great staff

Stopped here for lunch I would have to say the food is very good I highly recommend this place for lunch and the price is very good read more

Dragon Gate - Honey chicken and fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Parma Heights, Ohio

We love our local Chinese restaurant. Very good food... the workers are serious about their jobs.

I had Szechuan chicken, added egg drop soup and fried rice. Was good. Price $9.75 plus tip for lunch.

Great food and service. Wonton soup is delicious. I love the egg foo young. The lunch combination is a great deal for the price.

The food was not served hot. It was lukewarm at best. Also, I was disappointed with the amount of chicken in my favorite dish. They really went down on the amount of chicken What's worse, the short waitress with dark hair and dark glasses demanded an 18% tip! What nerve! read more

Stopped in here the other day with some friends to grab a meal. Prices were good and the portions were quite large! I ordered the combo lo mein which had everything and added the dinner combo which added wonton soup, an egg roll, and a bowl of rice. I left with a full belly and a smile. Can't ask for much more. Decor is nice and the service is excellent. There's a lot of Chinese restaurants in this area, but this one definitely stands out. Worth a visit!! read more

The food is always beautiful and delicious. The staff is very friendly and helpful. When I asked the server what I wanted to eat she let me know what was available for me. read more

Without a doubt this is the best Chinese food I have had in many years. It seemed the recipes and ingredients they used were more from the days of yesteryear. We will be returning soon!! read more

I am so disappointed in my meal. My Shrimp Lo Mein was a clump of mushy noodles. I mean MUSH!!!!! I'm hoping it's a fluke, as I see all the stars that customers have given this restaurant. I just had to vent my disappointment. I gave it one star only because the shrimp was good!! The rest is going in the garbage. read more

Came here with the family at 5:30 pm. Plenty of parking to accommodate the diners. Szechuan dinner, general Tao and shrimp-vegetables were very good. Tasty fare! Will definitely come back. read more

Great food! I had Mongolian beef, partner had butterfly shrimp, both were excellent. Only complaint I had was usually with Chinese food we get enough in one order for 2 meals, this we we finished in a single meal. Not sure if that's because we were that hungry, the food was that good, or just slightly smaller portions here read more

My mother told me about Dragon Gate years ago and I tried it when they were still on Brookpark. At the time I was so so on it but now I realize it was because I was used to the strip mall Chinese takeout that I had eaten for years. Which is mostly complete trash. Now that I'm older and have had a chance to sample the dying breed of actual sit down old school Chinese restaurants, I can fully appreciate this place. The food is A-1. Over the course of two visits my wife and I have tried the Hong Kong Chicken which is delicious, the sweet and sour pork and chicken, and governor chicken. Everything has been amazing. The fried rice is fresh and some of the best I've had. The egg rolls are another star but the wonton soup is hands down the best I've sampled in CLE. Our little guy loves it! The restaurant has been tastefully decorated to the point that you can't tell it was a Pizza Hut. It also has a drive through window...how convenient is that? On our two visits the service was always friendly and attentive. I'm genuinely happy because we have found a great quality Chinese restaurant that's not too far from home. I'll gladly make the drive in from Brunswick to eat here. Thank you Dragon Gate! read more

I haven't been to Dragon Gate in a while, so I was due for a visit. The family agreed and off we went. Upon arrival, we were the only people in the joint, which I loved, especially because the food is great. The wife and I ordered the Cantonese dinner for 2, which we used to order when we were dating 15 years ago. My kids both ordered orange chicken. And it's not just orange flavored chicken, they actually use oranges and its delicious! I loved the won ton soup and the hot tea. Our Cantonese dinner was delicious and included a large portion that we ended up taking home. I miss the awesome flavor of their fried rice. It is every bit as good as I remember it. The flavor and quality of Dragon Gate is very consistent. THIS is my favorite Chinese restaurant. I give five stars. Bravo! read more
