Dragon Village — Restaurant in Colville

Please note, I only give 3 stars if I have to.. I love being honest in my reviews, and this place can really be a hit or miss, allot of people like it, or allot of people don't, and here's my take: The waitress Tori (Victoria) was very sweet and she made our experience better, our wait was longer then it could have been but I normally try not to point that out because the food was served hot.. We ordered off the lunch menu; Kung Pao Chicken, Sweet and Sour Chicken which both came with a choice of soup, and a side of rice (which both of us chose to spend 1$ to upgrade to Lo Mein noodles) and a small spring roll. So the flavor and spice of the Kung pao Chicken and the sauce dressing was okay, it tasted average but not too bland, the Sweet and Sour chicken dressing was for the most part, sweet. Which isn't bad, but just average, the Chickenis heavily breaded, but crunch which is good. The Lo mein is mostly what threw me off, the noodles themselves were almost like a pasta type of noodle and it lacked flavor, and the table salt just couldn't save it for me. However, I did really like the egg drop soup, it was very hearty and had a flavor that I wanted.. and I did also like the spring roll, I'm just a little bummed it wasn't bigger, and only came with one. Now my sister just wanted Tempora Shrimp, which had a very bland, washed out flavor, almost missing that authentic shrimp taste, but the crunch was there, she liked it though, she said it tasted good. So overall and average dining experience, definitely not something super special. The pricing is okay, definitely not expensive, but...

I love going here the food is so good and the owner she is the best..She always remember's your name and she always is so nice..I would go just to talk to her even if the food was bad..lol But thank god the food is so yummy ....I love the food went to get some August 17th and was so sad cause they was closed she must have went home to see family..I love the chicken cashew and the sweet & sour pork..OH MY GOD THE PORK IS SO CRUNCHY & FLAKY LIKE REALLY GOOD..I'M SO GLAD TO HAVE A GOOD PLACE TO EAT..Thanks so much for the good food and the good service. ................................................................................................................................................... I have to say I love going to DRAGON VILLAGE to eat....The food is so good and the lady that owns it is the sweeties woman ...She always knows your name not just mine but everyone's..I watched her as I was getting my aunties food to go and everyone that walked in she called them by name...I can not even remember my own name anymore....She is the kindness and most loving woman who really treats her customers with great tender care...I seen her at Walmart once and she treated me the same as if I was giving her my order....She also remembers what you want to order cause we always get the same thing and she never for get...She always remembers that I don't want pees in my chicken cashew....I really want her to know how loved she is....THANKS FOR BEING SO...

I ordered takeout from here for the first time today and my jaw dropped at the price when I went to pick it up… $32 for tofu with a side of broccoli.

I didn’t want to seem rude so I paid and took my order home to try.

The Kung Pao tofu was watery and bland. I had specifically asked for it to be extra spicy and it certainly was not. The side of garlic broccoli veggies was $14.99…. WOW. It was also watery and not spicy.

The lady who took my order on the phone was kind and straight to the point; she was also the one who rang me out and again, was kind (hence the two star review instead of one).

I’d never been to the restaurant before but it was definitely odd. On my way through their back hall to the restroom it dawned on me that people must have been allowed to smoke in this restaurant in the years prior, as I was assaulted by a wall of old cigarette smoke smell when I walked by the “lounge” (a rundown room full of cardboard boxes).

The standard for Asian cuisine must be ridiculously low in Colville for this place to have received decent reviews.

I am very disappointed and will not be returning.

What a total...
