I have to admit the quality of their food this evening was by far the worst yet. A simple order of cashiers chicken that looked and tasted as if it had set in the refrigerator for at least a day if not two. The breading was soggy the chicken tough and the sauce what little there was was soggy dark and bitter I gave it all to my dog and ate a frozen entree. So last time ever.

Food was warm, fresh and tasty. The employees are wonderful. Thank you for a bunch of great meals.read more

I woke up Wednesday morning with a migraine, so I hadn't eaten ALL day. The one thing that sounded…read moregood was Golden Dragon's egg drop soup. It is the best. Loaded with plenty of egg whites, green onions, a deep brothy flavor, and best of all some extra protein with the chicken they add in theirs. I also really enjoy their fried rice. They put in fresh bean sprouts which adds that freshness and crunch. All we ordered was 1 order of beef fried rice, 1 order of chicken egg drop soup, and 2 sprites. Totaling a little over $20. An affordable meal for two, as we can split those two items and still have food leftover. So good sized portions as well. Golden Dragon has been a staple in the Ozark area ever since I was a kid. I was reminiscing that night sitting in the drive through, talking to my son about a time when I remembered when they were dine in and had a buffet! He had no idea that they were a full blown restaurant once upon a time. I say all of this as a prelude to once we got home and opened our order. We DIDN'T order any vegetable spring rolls, but they had thrown in a little bag of them just for us. This may have been a small gesture on their part, but it really made me smile and feel better from a day that was not so great. So THANK YOU to whomever there that threw in that sweet little surprise. Your food is good, but I think it's the small acts of kindness like this that keep such a loyal following to your establishment.

For 15+ years it's kind of been a go to an a staple when we're in Ozark area. I just called tonight and they said that the dining room is open and we're gonna go back in and have a meal. Having eaten here 50+ times in the last 10 years, I find the food consistent in the help on par with part-time restaurant help.

My bad, I reviewed the wrong one, but I'm sure this location is good too! Here's my review from last year on the other location: I could tell by looking at the photos and reviews on Yelp that this place was going to be wonderful. Thankfully, when we finally gave it a shot, we were not disappointed. Talk about made fresh. Everything was so delicious and freshly prepared. Flavors were spot on. The service was fantastic. They always made sure that our drinks were filled and we had everything that we needed. My absolute favorite dish was the fried green beans with minced pork. Get it with extra minced pork and you'll love it. The steamed dumplings and pancake appetizer are also really good. Highly recommend! They also have clean restrooms with an extra large sink outside the restroom area so you can quickly wash your hands if you don't actually need to use the restroom. Pretty cool. We can't wait to go back for more!

Interestingly enough, I gave this place a shot because it was on Yelp's "Top 100" list for Chinese…read morefood in the US.... In Springfield of all places??? I was at once both intrigued and more than a little doubtful. However, I've now been here half a dozen times (every time I visit Springfield) and I can say that most of what I've had has been extremely authentic, especially the spicy stuff! Having lived in LA and also in Asia, I'm pretty strict about what I am willing to call authentic. Corner 21 isn't perfect and a few of the dishes fell flat, but you won't find anything better in town. I'm giving it full marks for being such a pleasant surprise in a seriously unexpected place. edit: Almost forgot to mention that the portions are quite big. Portion sizes were definitely more Springfield size than big city sizes!

TV: timed in to kids programming and loud at any point and time. Kids: the daughter is quite enough. But the son talks out loud....saying what he's seeing on TV....non-stop....and I mean non-stop. And he is loud, fast talking....and oh, did I say loud? And this is how this place was on this visit. Read my other review, where the owner; which was our waiter one time in the past; never put the daughter down; as he took our order or served us. And the daughter was sick and a snotty nose that was snorting around like all get out! Service: They are never organized or attentive at all to the sit in customers. Tables always sit dirty. And if you eliminate the two tables...the owner's kids dominate...I think that only leaves (4) total tables to manage. And I sit there...and see multiple Door Dash orders get messed up and/or take forever. This last time, a Dasher left after waiting forever. The new owners may be nice or well intended. But...they have ruined this place...for all the wrong reasons.
