    Garlic beef
    Paul M.

    One of best Chinese takeout spots i've had in the area. The spicy kung pao shrimp were huge and well seasoned. I also really enjoyed the chow mein, which I think other spots call lo mein. Will definitely be ordering again soon.

    Nonalcoholic cucumber mojito, just like in Tokyo, but affordable

    This asian fusion bistro puts together all the best of Thai, Japanese and Chinese culinary specialties and drinks. Even the non-alcoholic drinks are fancy and really well done.

    Kung Pao Prawns
    Deb F.

    I'd seen people raving about this new Chinese restaurant on Nextdoor and I'm always on the hunt for good Chinese food here in the 'burbs. I had high hopes. Made a reservation (and glad I did because there were people waiting and it was busy) for 4 people. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. But then we waited a good 25 minutes before anyone even made eye contact so we could tell them we were ready to order. We ordered the pot stickers, General Tso's Chicken, Kung Pow Prawns, Garlic Green Beans, and Scallion Beef. Pot stickers were great. And the rest of the food was fine. It all needed a little more flavor, imo. Seemed like quality ingredients were used. My biggest complaint, besides the incredibly slow service, is the portion size. Typically we'd have leftovers ordering all that food but not here. We ate it all and were actually still hungry. For the prices (~$19 each for items with proteins) I would expect significantly larger portions. The food is good, don't get me wrong, but it's way expensive for what it is. Decor is lovely though high ceilings and hard walls/floors mean it gets loud. Staff was gracious, when we saw them.

    Was in town for work and wanted to try this place. I ordered the combination chow mein and a small won ton soup to go. The chow mein was flavorful and delicious. It had shrimp, chicken, pork, green onion, carrots, bok choy in a dark sauce. The soup was good and had two won tons. The restaurant decor was very modern and upscale and well decorated. The gentleman who waited on me was really nice. Food came out in 5-6 minutes. Definitely a good find for future trips.

    A friend of mine who knows the owners told me this was open and so I was so excited to try this. Firstly, the interior, at the end of a strip mall next to Walmart is gorgeous! The colors are warm and the wallpaper is pretty. It's a very spacious restaurant and there's even a separate private dining area. Now to the food, it was delicious! We ordered the shrimp rolls to start and they were nicely crispy with shrimp inside served with sweet and sour and mustard sauce. They have lunch specials that include white rice but you can upgrade to fried or brown rice for just $1. The Kung pao chicken is delicious and savory. The lunch portion was perfectly sized and we ate it all. Hot tea came with the meal. The server was learning her job but was very attentive and refilled drinks and took away service plates in a timely manner. Overall, a 5 star experience and I wish them a lot of success!

    Unhappy family .... more like a tasteless soup!  This was really bad.

    I had heard a lot of positive posts on Nextdoor about Dragonfly Asian Bistro, so thought I'd give it a try. What a costly and disappointing mistake! This is some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had, and it was expensive! I ordered on Grubhub and it arrived hot and fast. So far, so good, but unfortunately, that is where the good part ends. First of all, they use plastic food containers, no paper boxes. Hot food in plastic containers is gross! Secondly, the portion sizes are small for the high cost - at least fill up the container when you're charging $20-$23 for an entree! Third, they didn't pay attention to the extras I paid for, and fourth, the food is just plain lacking flavor! I ordered the combination rice and asked for them to add onion and scallions for an extra charge. Nope, they didn't do either. I couldn't see or taste onion at all. There was very little meat in the rice, but a lot of egg and the rice was basically flavorless. Next was the General Tso's chicken. The sauce was watery, and the chicken used is thigh meat and it isn't deep fried. The container was about half full. Last, and the worst, was the happy family. This was a real disaster and complete waste of money! It was more like unhappy family soup! The "sauce" was like a clear broth, very watery, even more so than the General Tso's sauce and it has zero flavor! There were two shrimp and two scallops. The one shrimp I ate tasted old. The whole dish was flavorless, no seasoning at all. The vegetables were fresh, but it was seriously like a weird soup of red and yellow bell pepper, sugar snap peas, mushrooms, zucchini, carrot (one piece) and broccoli. Unlike any happy family I've ever had. The cost for the food alone was $55.50, total cost was $66. The "soup" is going in the trash, it's that bad. Hopefully, the General Tso's chicken will taste better the next day. Not sure if it's worth eating the flavorless rice. If I could get a refund from Grubhub, I would request it, but because the food isn't "spoiled" or the order is mostly correct, they don't care if you like it or not. I will never order from Dragonfly Asian Bistro again, and I won't recommend anyone else do either. Sorry, I know the restaurant business is tough these days, but for $55 I should be able to enjoy the food, and this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had, and I order delivery/take-out a lot. Hopefully, this was just a fluke, but I won't try again, it was a costly mistake. Oh, and no fortune cookies, soy sauce packets or napkins with the order either! So disappointing all the way around!

    Won Crispy Wontons (8)
    Stephanie S.

    We were greeted promptly as we entered and seated right away. Our service service was good and friendly. Our water glasses were never empty and I appreciated that. They have a full bar as well as caned sodas. I took my friend out to lunch to celebrate her birthday so I let her choose the items we were going to share versus the individual lunch specials. The Sesame beef was our favorite and so delicious. I really liked the sweet n sour prawns and their sauce. The fried won tons were a little undercooked in the middle and the sweet n sour sauce that accompanied them was not my favorite sauce at all. If you served the warm sweet n sour sauce from the prawns that would be sooooo amazing. We dipped our won tons in that sauce and it was a game changer. We also ordered the combination fried rice which seemed to be lacking flavor but it did have a good amount proteins in the rice. We were each served a small bowl of soup. The egg flower soup was flavored very well. My friend loved her hot n sour soup. The prices are a bit high for the portion size. Overall an okay experience.

    I'm so impressed with this restaurant. High quality food at its best. Excellent ingredients.

    Crispy Noodles - Not crispy
    Deb K.

    Pretty disappointed considering the hype about this place. As a local couple from Hawaii, we have standards for a Chinese meal and this didn't cut it. Crispy noodle tasted good but was not crispy. Hubby said fat noodles can't get crispy. Happy Family was not tasty and was cold. Tasted like happy "leftovers". Won ton had cream cheese which was not only surprising but disappointing. While our server was really nice, she forgot our tea and we had to request it again after all the food came. The restaurant doesn't give you chop sticks unless you request them too. Not sure how Chinese that is?

    I saw the sign for this brand new restaurant so I wanted to try it out for my birthday dinner. We ordered several entrees and shared family style. Everything was so flavorful, and bold and traditional. I loved it. The interior is large lots of seating, with a private room, large bar and bar seating. Ultra clean and the service was amazing!

    Cool cocktail mug at another table.

    Finally a Chinese restaurant celiacs can enjoy! We had General Tso's chicken and chicken with vegetables all gluten free and delicious. Also had the GF egg noodle soup. Great friendly service and nice updated decor. Don't let the location dissuade you! We'll be back!

    Do you put Szechuan peppers in your Kung Pao? When I had your K.P. chicken, it lacked the numbing sensation of the peppers.

    Hi John- Yes, there are peppers in the Kung Pao dishes. We can also take them out if requested.

    Do they have happy hour?

    Yes, we have happy hour! 4PM-close at the bar, and 7PM-close in the main dining room.

    Do they have outdoor seating?

    They have a nice outside eating area but call to see if they have put the tables out yet.

    We were looking for a new Chinese restaurant and found Kuang's Chicken off of Capitol HWY down the…read moreroad from PCC Sylvania, its located right next to the 7-11 in a small shopping center. As you walk in your are greeting by a friendly staff member, they will sit you down at your choice of table. Its a small by cozy dining room. Their menu has all of your favorites , from appetizers, soups, noodles to Mu Shu Dishes. We came in during lunch, on the back of their menu you will find the the lunch specials within various proteins, veggie, noodle of fried rice options. Be warned, you get your choice of Spring roll or BBQ Pork with Fried rice "or" just Hot and Sour soup. The important distinction that is missing in their menu is the word "or". I wanted hot and sour soup, as my order was taken, I asked for clarity , I ordered Hot and sour Soup, and ask not to have rice, she then asked if I wanted an egg roll so I assumed it was one of the other options as a side that came with the food, it did not but I did not understand this until later on. So be ware. The food portions are large, my son ordered the General Tso's Chicken, its marked as spicy but it was not spicy, the taste of this dish was very good, the sauce had great flavor. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken also marked as spicy, it had a slight kick but nothing major, it had good flavor but not a lot of veggies, it did have a good portion of chicken. So then we both get a cup of fried rice to the table, and sweet and sour sauce and an egg roll. I did not think anything of it based on the way the menu was laid out within the lunch special. The only thing that I found odd is that I ask not to have rice but still got rice, I figured it was an oversight. A few min went by and I never got the hot and sour soup so I moved on and finished my meal. They also serve hot tea which was very good. When we asked for to go containers they were brought to us quickly. After your meal, you will need to go to the counter to pay, she handed me our check and I asked her for clarification around the lunch special, so you can choose either BBQ Pork or a Spring roll, which either choice comes with Fried Rice but if you want Hot and Sour Soup, you would not get a spring roll or fried rice. We pay our bill which seemed a bit high since each dish is 9.95 but we did not stop to question it more. We get to our car and the employee comes running out the door asking me to come back in, she had given us another persons bill so we were overcharged, I am very thankful that she come out to correct the issue. I would share that its a two person operation, the waitress is very direct and short but she is running around doing multiple things at a time. Given our overall experience I gave them a 4 star rating, the food quality and taste is overall good, the service is what it is, the pricing is very affordable, I would also check their food safety scores, they are slightly concerning.

    We usually get take out so can't comment on service or ambience. The food is good and the portions…read moreare large. Great prices round out the appeal. The hot sour soup is full of flavor and has the right sour to spice. Bbq pork was moist and tender. We had the pea pod chicken and Mongolian beef. The chicken was tender and plentiful. The beef could have been crispier for me put that's my preference. Good basic , fast, affordable Chinese in the neighborhood.

The food was tasty, the portions were satisfying, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you're looking for ambience, this may not be the place.

    41 years ruined by new ownership…read more Called in a take out order, new woman answered. Upon pick up, I noticed the booths in the dining room were gone, so obviously something more has changed. Prices were significantly more, like $5 more for the same combo as a year ago.... Okay, everything is going up. She brings out my order in a plastic lunch container, I look at her dumbfounded and say I ordered the number 10 dinner combo, and it should be 4 boxes of food, and it's incredibly light. She assures me it's what I ordered. I get out to the truck and peek inside, and there is about 3/4 of the normal food and only a small scoop of fried rice. I walked back in and asked, yup new ownership as of 7 months ago. I point to my T-Ball picture from 1987 on the wall and express my displeasure with the changes. -Red sauce was gelatinous and appeared to have been thawed -Soy Sauce is a different brand, Lucky (I loved the Double High brand, salty not sweet) -BBQ Pork is now bright red, no lacquer glaze, dry and sliced way too thick -Sesame Chicken has no sesame seeds in the batter -Pork Fried Rice has only the smallest flecks of bbq pork, dry and very small portion. -Fried Shrimp was the closest to previous, but still seemed off. Not sure I will be back. I'm heart broken as my hometown Chinese place of 41 years just died a silent death while I wasn't looking. I grew up with the previous owners son and although change is never easy we thank the Lee's for all the wonderful food and wish them a happy retirement. As for the new ownership, get your sh!t together or you'll never survive. $20 for the same combo I've been ordering for decades is laughable. I always had leftovers, but none this time as the portions are that small.
