  Rolled the dice tonight and ended up with City Dragon, this little hidden Gem has been feeding the City of Poway for more than 18 years. There was no one in the restaurant when we came in tonight but it was only 8:05pm so we had about 45 minutes to stuff our face before we had to leave to make our movie. Menu super simple and easy to understand (see picture) the couple here took our order for 4 people and had the food all out in under 8-10 minutes. We purchased Broccoli and Beef, Orange Chicken, Miso Soup, Egg Flower (similar to Egg Drop) and some chicken fried rice. I brought my 3 toughest food critics with me tonight, and all three gave the thumbs up approval tonight. We will definitely be bringing mom back here, all the food tasted great, warning soup comes out HOT, buyer beware. The couple serving us did a great job, definitely a cozy and welcoming place, the atmosphere definitely would be a great place to take a date. All drinks are bottled or canned.

  I've been a long time customer of City Dragon's and have always enjoyed their cooking.
  
  However, this time I checked the web site and noticed that they had "Free Delivery" as stated on the top left of the site. The order was attached to DoorDash, and when I completed the order, there was a $15.00 surcharge placed on my order of $23.00.
  
  To say this is excessive is a massive understatement. When I called the restaurant about the issue, they stated that the customer has to deal with DoorDash, but there isn't an easy way to contact them. City Dragon offered to cancel the order, but I wanted what we ordered. I tried to cancel the delivery but DoorDash website said it was too late.
  
  Classic bait and switch, and not a happy customer.

  Great little place for eat in or to-go. When I moved to this area of town I was worried about the food selection, especially Asian food which is a staple in my house. This place has eliminated my worry. Everything I have gotten has been delicious from garlic shrimp to beef with snow peas to bubhas veggies to soup. It has been fresh, full of veggies and favor!

  We stopped in for lunch this Saturday to try this small hole in the wall Chinese restaurant.  Nice clean little take out kind of place.  
  No Table Service.  To bad they loose a star for that.  The guy behind the counter was very nice, polite and helpful at explaining the menu. Sadly they have only canned soda with No Glasses and NO ICE. Another star gone.  The food came quickly nice and hot.  The egg rolls were just ok, nothing to brag about.  The Egg foo young was good for the money.
  The shrimp lo mein was pretty good and I would have it again.
  The menu has a fair amount to choose from but It was missing
  The Honey Walnut Shrimp I've grown to love when I go out for Chinese.
  Bottom line is this place is OK for a quickie but don't count on fine cuisine.  2 1/2 To 3 Stars Max.
  Enjoy

  The food was decent and my daughter and I liked it. We liked the flavor in the shrimp chow mein.
