We were searching for crappy Chinese food and this definitely met our expectations. All the chicken meals (sweet and sour, almond etc) are just fried chicken covered in different sauces. They did have a nice crunch though. You can hear the bar that the restaurant shares a bathroom with through the wall and the soup is not great...whatever kind it was. The consistency was like thick gravy not soup.
Would not recommend this place especially for the prices -

Went there for the first time today the food was okay but that was not the reason for the single star. The prices are outrageous for what you get and to top it off the kid that works there and appears to run the front is down right horrible. He single handedly ruined the rest of the meal for my sister and I. We watched as he handled a wrong order with another customer (she didn't get things that she ordered) and gave her the worst attitude ever. Rather than apoligizing and comping her for the mistake that was made he just gave more attitude. The cherry on top was when a fellow employee went to check to see how they were doing he rudely yelled across the restaurant at her (on her first day no less) to not check up on them. At that point we felt uncomfortable and got the check so we could leave. Never going back and would not recommend this place to anyone.

Worst service ever. Poor decor and the waitress was super passive aggressive. No entrance except through the hidden maze. Don't go!!

I'm truly surprised Chan's Dragon Inn has not been Yelped yet! What a gem of a Chinese place, at least if my lunch today was any indication. The location is fairly drab on the outside - actually rather run-down looking from the street. Looks like an old tavern building sort of thing.
But inside is another story entirely. It's warm, cozy, inviting - very nice decor and overall vibe. Hip and classic jazz plays from a nice sounding system, and the lighting is just right for the feel of the room.
The food was equally inviting. I ordered the G-Lunch - Kung Pao Chicken. It came with a cup of egg flower soup, which I felt was overly thickened but had good flavor and a good variety of ingredients. The chicken was wonderful - cooked to perfection, and delicately seasoned despite the heat. It came with a fairly lite fried rice, which I appreciate. I don't eat much rice these days, especially fried - but when it's done with some delicacy and not all greasy, I'll certainly have more than I would otherwise. Lastly, the lunch came with BBQ pork and the usual dunking stuff (hot mustard, sesame seeds)... nothing special there. The chicken was the star of the lunch, with a great variety of veggies stirred in.
Londa, my server, was just a sweetie. Pleasant, friendly and conversant but not obtrusively so, she made the experience a complete pleasure.
This really is a good place to eat and I'll most definitely be back.

Are you kidding me.... I can only assume the positive reviews were written by the restaurant's Management.
This place is a total DIVE which serves some of the absolute WORST Chinese food in the region!
I have lived in the neighborhood for over 30 years. I have eaten at the restaurant for decades.
It used to be a place where you could get a reasonably well prepared meal at a fairly reasonable price.
That has all changed. I recently had one of the worst meals I have eaten in any restaurant in my lifetime.
I am surprised the food server had the nerve to serve such a horrible horrile meal!
We ordered a "family style dinner". There were problems, substantial problems, with each and every item.
ALL of the items arrived at barely above room temperature - as if they had been prepared hours earlier and briefly (and badly) microwaved.
The sweet and sour pork consisted of rock hard kibbles of pork which was so hard you could not bite through them. They were coated in a super heavy costing of batter and then briefly fried.... so that the outside was blond color and the rest of the batter was raw. This mess was then covered with a "special sauce" which appeared to be made by mixing red dye number two with straight corn syrup. It was totally nasty and inedible and floating in this nasty glop.
The egg rolls were well past their freshness ...by the time they were served they were no longer crispy, just greasy and rubbery and stuffed with what appeared to be smelly stale cabbage.
This is not "rocket science" they have been serving hese menu items for at least 30 years. There is avsolutely no excuse for serving such incredibly NASTY food!
There are substantial problems at this restaurant. I cannot recommend that anyone eat there at this time?
