    This is a fast casual place, one native to NYC but apparently the founders have Virginia Tech ties and so have expanded here. It was in the offing seemingly forever and they're still working the kinks out, with some of the noodles being unavailable when I checked, as well as their tea. By and large, I have not seen Asian cuisines in the fast casual world; Chipotle tried to get a spinoff called Shophouse going but it never really took off. The poke bowl places are the only ones I can think of that have really succeeded in this niche. Junzi promises some legitimately Chinese flavors, and it did deliver. The knife cut springy wheat noodles were thankfully back in stock when I decided to order, and they have a delightful texture. To fill out a bowl, a few vegetable options are available, and two different types of tofu are among the proteins. I found the griddled tofu mouthwatering and it did have a nicely crisped edge. The suite of other options was not huge but did include some nice things like Mandarin oranges and bok choy. I got a salad and a noodle bowl, and having skipped breakfast, was able to scarf down both bowls. The salad doesn't make a meal by itself is what I'm saying. I see some room for improvement in the menu, but when I've looked for literally anything Chinese and vegetarian-friendly in Southwest Virginia, I have not found much worth my time. The sauces and ingredients here delivered the taste I was hoping for.

    This was a nice surprise to find a fast casual place for lunch with authentic hand-cut noodles. My wife, son, and I visited this place in late August 2025 after helping my son move into his dormitory at Virginia Tech. First, it has a difficult to find location if you're coming by car. Drive up to the 2nd level of the garage (or if you're walking here via Gilbert Place office complex, go through the doors to the parking lot and walk to your left). Second, the beef noodle soup was delightful and very satisfying for lunch, but the portions felt a tad too small. Third, the service here is pretty good and reasonably fast. Finally, the interior is cozy, clean, and modern. It has a really hip vibe - but you'll see that folks like to eat quickly and exit (just like any fast casual place). Would definitely visit here again for a fast casual lunch!

    The environment is clean and the dishes are tasty. I t reminds me of my hometown.

    The beef noodle is very delicious, and good portion! Great option for a quick lunch/dinner!

    Double Dragon isn't your average sit-down restaurant. They don't have servers, so you just order at…read morethe counter and they'll bring the food to you. I'm a second generation Chinese-American and my Chinese isn't quite at the level of native speakers. I still always try to speak Chinese whenever I'm at a Chinese restaurant. However, I felt ridiculed by the lady running the cash register - who went out of her way to mention how poor my Chinese is. I brushed that off and still ordered my food. My friend and I ate-in, and there weren't any other people at the restaurant. The food was average. I found the dumplings to be very ordinary and quite small. I wish that I had better words to say, but I overall didn't have a good time here and won't be back.

    We live in Town and used to go to Double Dragon on a regular basis for takeout. Years ago, they…read morewere friendly and nice with good food. Then we started finding foreign objects in the food. We kept a piece of wire once to show them, and another time found, and kept, a piece of plastic. Showed the owner those things both times and owner was just kind of 'oh well' attitude. Offered us a free egg roll but we declined both times as their once great egg rolls had gone down hill over the years: greasy and half the size. Then owners got short tempered and non-smiling where once had been happy people. Food kept getting from bad to worse so we stopped going there. Miss chinese food but finding foreign objects in one's food is unacceptable. They weren't regretful at all and even seemed to think we were not telling the truth! So take your chances in going to Double Dragon if you must. We do not recommend.
