    I searched for "Best Cantonese food in Rome" and Grand Dragon topped the list. I agree with all of…read morethe 5 star reviews so far. Coming from the San Francisco Bay Area in California, I'd have to give this restaurant relatively high marks on a number of fronts. First off, they speak Cantonese, Mandarin, English and Italian from the best that I could hear." The fact that they spoke Cantonese put me more at ease since I knew they would understand some of the dishes that I was trying to order. I do not speak Chinese but someone in our party did. Secondly, the Beef Chow Fun was pretty good and had "Ho Wok Hay" (which translates to "good taste of the wok"). Wok Hay is a slightly burnt flavor from the wok that gives a dish a high degree of flavor. Not too many restaurants have this and this is a mark of a legit Chinese restaurant. I was very pleasantly surprised to find this in Rome. We also ordered the Chicken in Picante sauce which was very tasty, and roast duck and spareribs in black bean sauce both of which were ok. We also had the house soup at the waitress' suggestion (probably because she knew we appreciated authentic Cantonese cuisine) and Chinese greens. The portions were fair and the prices not too cheap or expensive. I was just glad to get good quality Chinese (Cantonese food in Rome). The restaurant is simple and looked reasonably clean, the staff was friendly but a little hurried as they had a fair amount of takeaway orders. We will be here for a couple more days and will likely be returning.

    Food was fantastic and very reasonably priced. When needing a break from Italian, we decided to…read moregive Grand Dragon a try and we were very pleasantly surprised at how tasty everything was. Dumplings were great and the crispy duck was fantastic!

    This restaurant is now called Chong Qing, though still serves Chinese food, homey and welcoming…read more While it's maybe not the best Chinese food I've had, it's quite decent and also very affordable! Would come back if I had a craving in Rome. On a Saturday evening around 9pm we arrived to this restaurant with a craving for Asian food, having only eaten Italian food for the past week. The proprietor was friendly and seated us right away, providing us menus. They serve a large variety dishes, notably focused on western Chinese cuisine. We ordered: - Steamed dumplings €6 for 6pcs: ok, decent savory filling, average bun, though a steal for the price. - Cold potato noodles €7.00: good though not particularly standout, everything was fresh, slight chewy on the noodles, and crunch to the cucumbers and peanuts. Was nice to have a cold dish to accompany the hot ones. We asked for mild not knowing how spicy the food would be and I would probably ask for medium next time. - Chinese cabbage and tofu soup (large) €9.00: another great value for the price. Loved that this was homey and comforting, a bunch of veggies with tofu, not over-salted which I appreciated. - Stewed beef with white radish €14.00: one of my ultimate Chinese comfort foods, a good braised/stewed beef is like snuggling in a warm blanket and this brought me that sensation while traveling thousands of miles from home. Tender beef and radish, again not too salty which I was glad for. Perfect to eat over rice. If I were in Rome next time would definitely consider coming back, and also ordering some of their western-Chinese-style dishes. Thanks for a wonderful meal!

    I gotta give love to Yami for hitting the spot. I never thought I'd be that Asian who craves Asian…read morefood on extended holiday, but after 5 days of Italian food and getting wet in a thunderstorm the night before, hubby and I were in dire need of comfort food. Portions are small matching the price. Service is friendly and eager to please. Hot sauce tastes like sambaal with chili oil. They close from 3-5 which is typical in Rome. Practically across the street from Termini Station. We saw plenty of Koreans and Filipinos enjoying their food as well. No non Asians in sight so it's authentic. The XLB are not even close to DTF and have no real soup/broth inside so please do not compare the two. I would revisit Yami for no frills Chinese food in a heartbeat. They do serve liquor and wine but you can also BYOB!
