Food: Failing flavor and selection
Top dishes like Mary's Orange Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp and Lo Mein with Shrimp failed to impress with their bland taste. Despite high marks for freshness and portion size, Fat Dragon fell short in creativity and value. Its limited menu couldn't justify the overpriced, mediocre American Chinese cuisine that it served.
Great Portions
Generous portion sizes frequently provide tasty leftovers and great satisfaction.
Okay Taste
Food ranges from delicious to mediocre, with varied portion sizes
Creativity
Lacks unique offerings, not justifying higher prices compared to competitors.
Top 3 dishes at Fat Dragon
- 1
Mary's Orange Chicken 🏆
Juicy chicken with delicious, tangy sauce; often called the best.
- 2
Honey Walnut Shrimp
Perfectly coated with a well-balanced sweet and savory sauce; crispy shrimp.
- 3
Eggplant with Spicy Garlic Sauce
Amazingly satisfies cravings for authentic chinese spicy garlic eggplant.
Vibe: Inspirational lacking ambiance
The restaurant lacked ambiance sorely; its sparse, functional decor felt more like a mess hall than a dining destination. The absence of a restroom added discomfort, and the pitiful alcohol selection did nothing to enhance the dining experience. It's hipster appeal seemed a feeble attempt to mask its faults.
Okay Buzz
Described as super hipster, implying trendy yet overdone.
Drinks
Lack of restrooms and alcohol options negatively impacted the dining experience.
Perks: Excellent service meets poor accessibility
On a positive note, Fat Dragon was highly praised for its excellent service, friendliness and efficiency of its staff. It caters well to large groups, with family-style portions and even holds its own with vegetarian options but shabby parking facilities and an intrusive hip-hop music backdrop marred the overall experience.
Great Service
Staff consistently praised for friendliness and efficiency in service.
Hard To Hear
Hip hop music may not suit everyone's taste for dining.
