First time ordering here and it was pretty good! Delivery was super fast and driver was pleasant! Ordered chicken lo mein , general Tso chicken with pork fried rice and egg roll. Also got boneless spare ribs with crab rangoon. Everything was still hot when I received it. Decent prices too! Only complaint was egg roll was very oily but besides that food was good! read more

Food was good and full of flavor and the meat wasn't fatty like most places. The crab rangoon was light and crispy and the egg rolls were really good, except they were really greasy. Would try again though! PLUS fastest delivery I think I have ever had. read more

Always fresh, hot and enjoyable. Good food, reasonable pricing and they deliver! Can't ask for better when you're on the go, and need a decent meal. Thanks, I miss the "We delivery" sign lol. That was always a laugh with a wink and a smile. read more

I gave them a very bad review years ago, but decided to try them again. The food is very fresh and enjoyable. It's not the best in flavor, but you can tell care was taken when preparing it. We will order here again. I am pleased because it is pretty healthy for Chinese food. It doesn't have all the salt and oil you usually get. read more

Wish I recorded her scream and co worker maybe her husband really was trying to help. Wow agian beware If you have any complaints keep the to yourself read more

I don't know how I've lived in Meriden most of my life and haven't tried this place. This is the best Chinese food I have had in CT period. I generally order takeout and the food is always hot when it gets to me, my order is always correct and the people who work there are always very nice over the phone. I ordered the chicken wings with pork fried rice and their egg drop soup. The wings are well seasoned, juicy, big and have amazing flavor. They are always hot (temperature) when I get them and that's the best way to enjoy them. Generally when I order egg drop soup I add some salt to taste. I don't have to do that with them. The soup is well seasoned and flavored as it is. If you're looking for a really solid and delicious Chinese restaurant for lunch or dinner this place should be your go to. read more

The chicken wings was probably one of the best foods I have ever eaten I recommend that you should come here. I had never eaten anything so crispy and delicious. read more

Dragon Phoenix has a special place in my heart. I've been coming here for about 7 years now, and I won't even consider Chinese food from anywhere else in the city, it's that good. I even get disappointed if I'm out of town and someone wants to order Chinese because I know it won't be as good as Dragon Phoenix. The staff is super great. Recommend the pork lo mein and fried dumplings. read more

This Chinese restaurant was the best one I ever went to, throughout my life as a Asian, I have to say that no restaurant can beat this, it has my kind of taste. I highly recommend the Lo Mein, it is the best one to me. Not to mention, the furniture and style in the restaurant is comfortable and clean, unlike most restaurants I go to they are dirty. The service is also very good, they take pretty quick, so I don't have to wait for hours and hours there. The restaurant is not loud, which is one thing I hate the most, yelling, loud noise, so on. They immediately greet me when I walk in, since I come very often, they know exactly what my order is. In conclusio, I highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for something new to try. read more

This was my go to food delivery when I had my first apartment. They taste just as good as they did then! Prompt service.

Great local Chinese food! The staff was friendly and was able to get our large order together quickly. The food was tasty and everything came out hot and was as expected. The spiciness level for hot was also perfect for some of the additional heat levels added. I also have to recommend the party tray of Crab Rangoon! It's tasty and if you love Crab Rangoon like my friends and I do, you'll appreciate the number of them that come with this! read more

They have made their quart sized boxes smaller, and still charge quart prices. read more

Dragon Phoenix Chinese Restaurant - Chicken and Beef with Broccoli Combination Platter - Chinese Near Me - Meriden, Connecticut

Food is always amazing. No complaints here. Wish I didn't have to door dash for delivery so I don't have to pay delivery fees. But in the end it's still worth it. read more

"End the Suffering" It's so obvious now why there's never any customers parked in front of the restaurant when I pass by at lunch time. I was rushing back to work at lunch time and pulled in to get something quick and I was the only customer there. As soon as I walked in, I thought about running back out. But I took one for the team to write this review. I was so hesitant to place an order. This place is a dump. The outside is run down and shabby. The inside is disgusting. God only knows what lurks in the kitchen. The dining area has junk everywhere. There was even a bicycle in the corner. One table had half eaten chicken wings and something that resembled soup. They can start by at least cleaning the tables. I kept my order simple. A small hot & sour soup and a small house special fried rice. As I'm writing this review, I'm also praying that I don't get sick. I went as far as a small taste of each, but still worried about getting sick. The hot & sour soup was strangely extra dark. The taste wasn't too bad, but I was so freaked out by the cleanliness of the restaurant or lack there of, I stopped eating it. The fried rice comes with shrimp, pork, and chicken in it. With the few spoonfuls that I had I found the shrimp to be ok, the pork was alright, but the chicken and rice were weird. The rice had a strange beige color to it. Like it had been sitting in the fridge for a long time. The chicken looked fatty and gross. And wouldn't you know it, I bit into what appeared to be a piece of a chicken bone. I wonder if the health dept knows about this place. It needs to be shut down. read more

YAY! Not one onion. Not one scallion. They listen. I am NEVER disappointed when I order from Dragon Phoenix, no matter what I order. It's perfect. not too jhot, not too sweet, Just right. Never a stray onion, or scallion. The ribs were perfect. The shrimp rolls were perfect. The fried rice was made to order. PERFECTLY. They accepted our credit card over the phone for the delivered order, (not sure why Frank from review dated 12/18 posted they didn't accept his card, they've always accepted ours...) we tip the delivery person.

Dragon Phoenix Chinese Restaurant - Beef Chow Mein - Chinese Near Me - Meriden, Connecticut

Just not good- I was very disappointed that my favorite Chinese place stopped doing delivery and I was forced to try and find another. This was the only place I had a menu for that also did delivery and we tried it for the first time Saturday night. Food came quickly and the order was correct. However that's where the good ends. What we got was bland oily food. We got the house special fried rice which was just oily white rice with nothing in it. Maybe a couple small shrimps (seriously like 2) and what may have been shredded chicken. But no veggies, no color to it, no flavor!! What we used to get from their competitor is 100 times better. Also we got the boneless spareribs- again lacked flavor, were very oily and the pieces very fatty. To be honest I gave half the order to my dog. Lastly got some fried shrimp- usually this comes with tartar sauce but we received none and some chicken wings. The chicken wings weren't bad actually, I did think these were good but the main part of the meal was so underwhelming that this couldn't make up for it. Overall the service was great, the lady that answered the phone was very nice, delivery was quick- this is only reason I gave 2 stars. But the food besides chicken wings was just terrible. Looks like we are picking up Chinese in Meriden from now on... read more

Not the most Extravagant Chinese food but it fits the bill and fills the belly. Never fails to satisfy the price is good and they're usually pretty fast. Unlike other Chinese in the area I have not had any problems at this location. read more

Well what can i say but stay away. I ordered 3 combination platers of general tso, and to my demise there was a bug inside mine. I called back I've been ordering from them for 10 years. Expecting them to make it right i asked for them to refund my money, bare minimum they could of done. But guess what nope they fought me all the way threw. Had to have my back deny the charges 3 times but i lost at the end. Bad horrible customer service, how dare you feed me a bug and not take responsibility for your inability to keep your food safe. SHAME ON YOU can't wait for OSHA to finish my complaint. Hope you learn something read more

We drive by this restaurant almost every day and if we judged books by its cover, then this would be a dusty book in the basement of a library. A book that was so horribly written, the librarians hid it from sight. My co-workers swear by this place but for those that do, they're a little on the "trailer-y" side of the spectrum. I am from NYC where restaurants like this are on every other corner in every other street in every borough. As NYers, we learn to stay away from these places. Bottom line, when you open one of their fortune cookies and it reads: "That wasn't chicken" there is a high likelihood that it wasn't. Take note from the other comment/review: "The place smelled like they just sprayed ant repellent" ... The sad part is, the commenter still ate there. Pathetic excuse for a Chinese Restaurant, maybe they ought rename it "Ghetto Jade Rat" or something. read more

Been ordering here since I am a kid Always fast fast fast delivery Good food good value good people read more

After reading a lot of iffy reviews I gave this place a shot. Quick and straight forward on the phone. Which is what I prefer. Reasonable delivery time. Portions are above average and the food was great! read more

Pretty bad. That was the worst Chinese food I've had in awhile. The food was pungent and tastes weeks old with bad odor to it. The only reason I gave it more than 1 star was that the delivery was pretty fast. Hire them as fedex or ups drivers, cuz food industry isn't this places sting suit. read more

I have ordered here because it was close to my old office. I was not impressed by the food and did not feel so well after I ate it. The prices are affordable, but its clear that you greatly sacrifice quality for value. I would not go here again. There are a lot of other options in Meriden and nearby Wallingford. read more

At first, I really liked the general tsos chicken (this was the first dish I ordered from here). However I won't be ordering anytime soon because their chicken with broccoli was absolutely disgusting. First of all, how is it possible to mess up a classic like this? The chicken was extremely fatty and tasted almost raw. Not sure why they would leave all the fat lingering around the chicken like that, all mushy and disgusting. Almost like they didn't clean this meat in any way whatsoever. This particular dish ruined my appetite entirely, questioning the cleanliness of this place overall. I'm truly disgusted. read more

I ordered for delivery and was very satisfied. The Beef LoMein was great. I added Soy sauce as is my preference and still good. I had Sweet and Sour Chicken, and it was perfect. Crisp outside and fully cooked, yet tender inside and not overly greasy. Deep fried so you do get some grease. The chicken was the best I have had. The sauce and a good flavor. Not too sweet or sour but a good blend and thickness. The pork egg rolls were a bit greasy for my taste, but after I patted a bit of it off, the taste and crispness more than made up for the excess grease. Everything was so hot, as though it was fresh from the wok and fryer. Could help that I was just a few blocks away, but it was nice. The delivery person was right on time with the Eta I was given. read more

This place is the bomb . And they deliver ! I always get the chicken wings . There super good and crunchy . There pork Lo me in is the best . Crab Rangoon and sweet and sour sauce is super tasty . The best Chinese I've had in Meriden . And the prices are good . read more

This's my favorite Chinese food in town,the taste is great and delicious .l love so much!

I ordered my usual Beef with Mushrooms, and usually this is no problem. I always ask that they leave out the vegetables, In this case the guy on the phone said "I can't do Beef & Mushroom only...." What? The worst excuse I ever heard previously was "It will cost extra" which makes sense. So they end up sending me 2 pieces of beef packed into a massive container of the least fresh mushrooms I have ever seen. I almost thought it was a joke until I realized I'm in Meriden and this is the trend up here for Chinese. Girlfriend got Lo Mein or some noodles, she did not finish her dish. Even the add ons like the egg rolls are weird. Total waste of $30. read more

A Meriden staple. Classically called "We Delivery", It's been my go-to Chinese place for the last 15 years. It's not the best Chinese food I have ever had, but it's consistently good, and has never been bad. They alway say they'll be there in 30-40, but really, they'll be there in 15! They don't screw up orders. 100s of orders and I don't think they've gotten one thing wrong- EVER! read more

I have been eating delivery food from this place since I was a kid. The building itself is a little run down but I am convinced this is the greatest chinese food in the world. read more
