    Chef special tofu
    Jennifer L.

    Great entrees but slow service. The restaurant wasn't very busy while we were there on a Friday at 6p. There was one server and one busser. It took 15 minutes to get our egg drop soup from the time we placed our order. After the soup our entrees came out another 15 minutes later and the server forgot our rice. She didn't check on us nor could we get her attention. We finally got the attention of the busser and he brought us rice. We didn't like the rice because it was too dry. However, the beef broccoli, and the chef special tofu were both phenomenal. I am hoping that the next time we dine in here the service will be a little faster.

    First off. The waitress was wonderful. Could not say enough nice about her. She food was good. If you're looking for Americanized Chinese, this is my recommendation in Stanwood. Only four stars because it was saltier than I would have cared for but over all. Not a bad choice.

    This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Washington. It's in Stanwood. It's always consistently good. From the soup to the orange chicken to the owners special called happy family which is full of protein. The owners and their family are so nice. I love sitting on their indoor patio right across from the movie theater. It's really a nice environment. Our server denisse was very efficient! Prices are reasonable to.

    Sweet and sour pork with BBQ pork fried rice.

    This was a very cute place if you sit in the court yard. The people were nice and the atmosphere was nice but the food was just okay. My fried rice was not fried all the way it still had white rice in it and it tasted pain to me. My chow main was good tho and I enjoyed eating that. My husband got the spicy chicken and they asked how hot he would like it. He told them 4 star but it wasn't. It was maybe a 2 star for spice. It wasn't hot at all and he was disappointed.

    Wonton Soup - fresh veggies, housemade wontons, extremely tasty broth.

    At one of our favorite restaurants, Dragon Palace, in Stanwood, that we only get to like twice a year. The best, freshest, most authentic Chinese food!!! And I can actually eat much of their food because no soy!!!!!!!!!! And they have out of this world service!!!!! Plus, bonus, the entire place feels like you're outside on a patio but you're inside a giant gorgeous building with restaurants and a old school movie theater. There is also a Pho and Mexican restaurant in this building as well. Worth the drive I promise. You won't forget this place and you'll definitely return again and again.

    Tortillas wtf who serves moo shu pork with tortillas
    Buck W.

    Very ho hum that would rival Panda Express. Service was fair. The taste of the food was fair but cold. As fast as it came out I'm sure it was fresh from a warming dish if it came out of a microwave it would have been warmer. The Moo shu pork was served with thick flour tortillas wtf is that about. Usually it it served with a very thin flour pancake. Edit down to one star as 3 of the 4 people got food poisoning from here stay away if you don't want to spend a day in the bathroom. The fourth person didn't have any of the moo shu pork. I'm not sure how this place has passed the health code

    Mmmmm. Mongolian Beef & Chef's Lo Mein
    Billy D.

    This local place has been around a long time. It's located in the same building as the movie theater and has a nice seating area outside the main dining room. The service is always good, friendly, and efficient. The food is good. Some dishes are average while others are fantastic. The Mongolian Beef is one of the fantastic ones. The right balance of meat, onions, and sauce. You can get it at different spice levels. If you're adventurous try at 3 or above. You can get just the entree or the dinner combo. That includes soup, choice of rice, prawns, egg roll, and paper wrapped chicken. It's plenty of food and don't be surprised if you find yourself asking for a to-go box. The price for the dinner combo is about $20 on average. It's enough food for two meals anyway. The menu is large so there's something for everyone at the Dragon Palace.

    Family meal for three!
    Kimber R.

    This is the place of my childhood. I grew up in stanwood and remember waiting outside in high school on rare late lunch days to get Mongolian beef to go. After living on the east coast for 12 years with nothing but junk take out Chinese, we always make a stop here when we come to town. The family meal for three can feed my family of three for days. We always get the cashew chicken, sweet and sour chicken and the Mongolian beef. It's all amazing. Reading reviews about it being just okay makes my soul sad. The staff is always great, but a little slow, so if you come in starving, you will most likely get angry before getting full. The prices of the family meals are worth it and a great deal, but piece by piece it can seem expensive.

    Dragon Palace is hands-down the best place to get Chinese food in Stanwood. They've been around forever and the food never disappoints.

    12/15/25: We were in the Everett, WA area that day, which was a day of heavy rains, gusty winds at…read more16 mph, and we were craving good Szechuan cuisine, so we found a quaint spot tucked away in downtown Everett along Colby Avenue; we were greeted with warmth and gracious hospitality. Our dining experience began with cold appetizers, including a mixed black fungus dish with a satisfying crunch and tangy vinegar flavor, alongside pickled lotus root vegetables with a garlicky and subtly spicy taste. For our main courses, we opted for the Deep Fried Fish Szechuan Style, which was filled with cod fish, had a lighter batter coating, and a pleasing crunch, but beware of its savory and fiery flavor, which intensifies after several bites. We also selected the Szechuan Hometown Tofu, which offered our taste buds a savory flavor, enhanced by chili sauce, a crunchy exterior, and a soft, silky interior. On the side, we ordered a bowl of steamed purple rice and white rice. This exceptional culinary experience combines the perfect balance of crunchiness, chili spice, garlicky freshness, and sweetness, rich flavors of Szechuan cuisine. I highly recommend this restaurant for an authentic Szechuan-style dining experience.

    The positive part was the sweet and sour chicken was still very warm when it reached my house…read more The vegetable chow mein was not. It is a huge portion but it is completely devoid of any flavor whatsoever. Usually onions add something but that did not help. I don't know how you can mess up noodles but no one in my family would eat them and there is one person in my family that will manage to eat almost anything and they refused. The sweet and sour chicken was drowning in sauce even though we asked more than once for the sauce to be on the side. We liked the bell peppers and onions in the sauce. The chicken pieces were of decent size. I did not care for the sauce. The white rice was well made and fluffy. The rice was probably the best part of the dish. About an hour later, we ended up throwing up the food. A complete waste of $31 dollars (which is pricey for what was supposed to be a lunch special). Also, vegetable chow mein and chicken chow mein is the same price which we found out after we had paid. Lunch is pictured and mention to include soup BUT you only get soup if you dine in. The place looked clean the the people seemed friendly. We may give them one more chance bc of the friendly service.
