    Dry, hard, chewy chicken for sweet and sour chicken. Hard as a rock fried shrimp and fried potatoes.
    Rhonda C.

    The food was awful. Everything fried was dry, hard and chewy. There wasn't one thing on the buffet that wasn't over cooked or just plain old and should have already been thrown away. When you go out to eat, you expect to eat fresh food, and this buffet didn't have that! I will never eat here again. I'll take my chances at the Hunan Chinese restaurant on 98 any day over this place. I can't sit here and tell you a worse Chinese restaurant I've ever ate at, and that's bad because there have been many. The service would have made this review one more star than it was, except when we complained about the food as we first started eating, all the 2 employees did was say "sorry" instead of offering to fix it. They should have gave us freshly cooked food! We will NEVER EAT HERE again. Waste of $60!

    Egg drop soup. DELICIOUS!
    Beth B.

    This place was great. I know, I know when you come to gulf shores you think seafood seafood seafood! Well, this is a nice break from the typical seafood fare. They do have shrimp and some sushi for those die hards who can't live without seafood. Their lunch buffet is $5.99. You get all the delicious staples, salad, and dessert which includes pudding, cookies, and soft serve ice cream. I'm from Hawaii and I have no complaints. The meat was not chewy which happens when the meat is fatty and one often gets at buffets. My favorite was their egg drop soup! If you want a quick, tasty food with lots of variety at a great price this is the place. This place is clean and the service fantastic.

    The food tasted horrible, there was no general taos chicken. Over all the place was clean, the people were nice but the food was terrible.

    Best Chinese in Baldwin county! Singapore mei fun is top tier. I eat here at least once a weekread more

    It's been 4 years since I reviewed here, which is my trend I guess, with my last two being in 2016…read more& 2020. It's been my favorite Chinese in the region since I first tried it nearly ten years ago. China Dragon, located in Gulf Shores, AL, is a well-established Chinese restaurant that has been serving delicious Asian cuisine for over a decade. They have a cozy dining area with a few tables, and while I have dined there quite a few times, I do pick ups for my takeout fix on a lot more occasions, like tonight . They now also have another location in Orange Beach, AL as well but I haven't tried that one, yet :-) Their menu features an assortment of classic Chinese dishes. Appetizers like egg rolls and crab rangoon provide the perfect start to any meal, while the restaurant's signature General Tso's chicken, Mongolian beef, and lo mein dishes showcase the flavors and textures of traditional Chinese cuisine. Side note: Interestingly, General Tso's chicken, a dish named after General Tso, a 19th-century Hunanese general, despite being synonymous with Chinese cuisine in America and around the world, has a somewhat surprising history. The dish wasn't actually created in China, nor was it eaten by the historic General Tso. Instead, it was invented in Taiwan in the 1950's by a chef named Peng Chang-kuei, who had fled there with the Nationalists after their defeat by Mao Zedong's Communists. But then it was transformed into the sweet, fried staple of American Chinese cuisine we know and love in New York City during the 1970s. It is one of my all-time dishes when I'm eating out Chinese, and I do not cook it. There is one dish that I really, really like here that is wildly overlooked. It's simply listed on the menu as "Singapore Rice Noodle" which I've had in Chinatown's from Boston to San Francisco but they don't describe it anywhere here. They do a fantastic job with this dish. Singapore Rice Noodles, is also known as Singapore Mei Fun or Xing Zhou Chao Mi Fen, and a popular stir-fried rice noodle dish with a unique blend of spices and ingredients. Despite its name, the dish is believed to have originated in Hong Kong and is not commonly found in Singapore itself. They make it with rice noodles, onions, carrots, and bean sprouts, with generous portions of shrimp, chicken and beef all cooked perfectly. Speaking of portions, they also give you portions they are easily enough to share with two or more people at very reasonable prices. Try it! In addition to dine-in and takeout services, China Dragon offers delivery through its own dedicated drivers, as well as through third-party platforms like Grubhub and Doordash. Bottom line: This place is an outstanding choice for Chinese with an extensive menu, convenient hours, fast service and hot fresh food. Highly recommended!! Open seven days a week with operating hours ranging from 10:30 AM to 10:00 PM or 10:30 PM depending on the day, China Dragon ensures customers can satisfy their cravings at any time.

    Not sure why a full service restaurant has people on a wait when only 4 tables are full…read more.. Yet let the customer beware because we continue to come here when we are in the Orange Beach area because it is one of the only Thai places in town...This is our 3rd time here and I don't recall anything in particular memorable about the previous 2 occasions... We came here at 6:15 on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was not busy yet we were placed on a wait ( literally 4 tables in the whole place were seated). I am guessing that either kitchen staff or wait staff was short due to us having to wait for a table??? Once we were seated, a lovely human came in to order take out and was quoted a time of 40-50 minutes...at this point of our meal experience three tables were filled; there was one additional person waiting for take out, and then the person inquiring about an additional take out order . In my head I am thinking that the food must be fire for someone willing to complete a takeout order and wait that amount of time...Makes me hopeful that the wait for my own food might be worth it (but the cynic in me is doubtful). Beer selection leaves a lot to be desired especially on the Imported front. Appetizers (two orders of spring rolls) came out prior to the entrees which was a pleasant surprise. Spring rolls were served hot and were as to be expected. Portion sizes for entrees are small. We ordered Thai basil fried rice on a Thai hot level and beef drunken noodles with extra vegetables (not sure where the extra veggies were on this) Thai hot. Food great, spice level on point, service sub par, portion size a bit small for the price...more like lunch portions. If the service was better and portions larger, this place would be out of the out of this world, but because they are not l, it is mediocre at best.
