China Dragon — Restaurant in Cromwell

Do NOT order from here! We love Chinese and this was our first time ordering from here. We ordered Fried dumplings, Pork Lo Mein, Chicken with Broccoli, Orange Chicken, Boneless Spare Ribs, and the Chicken Fingers. Not worth the $60 plus dollars for the 4 of us. I can be picky when it comes to food (freshness, taste, etc…) but my husband and son will eat almost anything. After a bite, even they refused to eat it! The Orange Chicken & Boneless spareribs had a very weird after taste. Honestly, they smelled a bit funny but everyone has their own method of seasoning and cooking, so we tried it anyway. It was awful! Besides the congealed jelly consistency, the chicken was tough and dry with a very “pungent” aftertaste. My dumplings tasted like they were cooked and reheated more than once (super chewy, dry & tough). The Chicken with Broccoli had a very sour after taste. I honestly think the chicken went bad and after one bite my son spit it out and threw all of it away. Besides everything being dry and bland, the food is definitely not fresh. Please save your money - and...

I will start by saying this was not the typical high salt meal that I am used to from these types of restaurants. The fried rice was pale compared to the usual brown, overdosed with Soy sauce, rice I am used to seeing. The Egg Foo Young needed salt, but the gravy it came with more than made up for the lack of salt on the whole plate. The Sweet and Sour dipping sauce for the Chicken Fingers was definitely a little thin. That all said, I enjoyed this meal. And the Egg Roll was crisp inside, not like the mushy over processed ones that have ruined this "treat" for me. I will be going back here to order dinner again, but I will be sure to grab some Soy sauce packets to bring back home with me. Service was quick. Staff was friendly, and waited patiently as I decided what to order. They said 10 min, I think it was closer to 7. I was there at 9pm, so I don't know how busy they usually are, or what the typical...

China Dragon: A Disappointing Culinary Experience I recently had the unfortunate experience of dining at China Dragon, and I'm sorry to say that the food was a major letdown. The dishes I tried were bland, and lacked the vibrant flavors I've come to expect from authentic Chinese cuisine. The fried rice was dry and tasteless, and the main dishes were simply unappetizing. It seemed as though the food had been sitting around for far too long before being served. I'm disappointed to have had such a negative experience at China Dragon, as I had heard good things about it. Perhaps it was just an off night, but I'm unlikely to return anytime soon. If you're looking for quality Chinese food in the area, I would recommend trying...
