"The sad thing is but this place made the almond fried chicken exactly the way I like it except, I think they have pre cook the chicken before they battered and deep-fried it so that it was extremely dry and chewy. The same thing went for the prawns with Crispy walnuts. If these things were fresh and tender this would have been probably one of my old school Chinese places around town. Totally rude owner. Boot heel BBQ pork. Nope! This place makes almond fried chicken the style I like it however, it must be overcooked or pre-cooked and then cooked again because it's incredibly chewy and stiff. I found the fried rice was way too salty and slathered in dark soy sauce. The sweet and sour was okay as where the fried prawns pretty typical for this style Chinese restaurant. The barbecue pork was hard as a boot heel and the wonton soup was near flavorless. The big turn off was the waitress and possible owner. She was incredibly rude and even hung up on me when I tried to call. She refused to bring us some of the things we wanted just because she didn't feel like doing it. It was strictly out of the Twilight Zone. The only time I would consider going back if they have a good laugh with friends. Other than that I'll be looking elsewhere"

Authentic Chinese food fast service with a bar area in the back. Meals are cheap and generous. You can be sure to have hot and hot meal every time.

This is a restaurant, bar that I have visited many times and never disappoints. Never buzy, which I can't understand. The food here is very good, a clean restaurant, and not over priced.

Greg Bonus runs the lounge and he is the very ideal of what a gracious host is. An example of accountability, integrity and honor and a true American! I will keep going back to the Dragon Gate View menu
Dan
The best review I can give is that this restaurant has unfortunately closed down due to the owner, WREN, driving away customers with her unpleasant personality. Hopefully, she will have better luck in California. Goodbye!
Caprice
I called to see what time they close and the lady said what time do you want to come I let her know I would like to order to pick up, she repeated her self and In the mist of me saying 5pm she said call back later bye and hung up. Won't be ordering from here! Could imagine what the food Taste like with that type of customer service!

The woman working at the front counter was extremely impolite. I do not plan on returning. The food was mediocre. I ordered shrimp fried rice and garlic wings. I specifically requested the rice to be made without eggs due to my allergy, but the woman seemed irritated by my request. There were no other customers at that time. Better customer service skills are needed. View menu

I tried to dine here because I am from out of town and didn’t know better. The woman that answered the phone flat out refused to take my girlfriends takeout order. Thinking it could have been a language barrier, I called back on my phone and attempted to make a phone-in order but was also very RUDELY refused. Don’t even try with this place. Very rude staff that couldn’t care less about your experience there.

Bartender Greg is the saving grace. Food was cold, a bit flavorless. The hot n sour soup tasted like sour soysauce, the mushrooms in the mushroom beef had no flavor, everything was fried and drenched in sauce. I've watched enough Kitchen Nightmares to know that when the food comes out that fast, it was pre-cooked then microwaved. Good atmosphere though and great bar. Again Greg is like a 6 star server and bartender! He did everything he could to appease my picky palate :
