Great Dragon: Reviews & Ratings
Not a bad spot. The reviews don't give it justice for what I expected and experienced.... I stay in the area around JFK two to three times a month and I like to get my NY Chinese fix delivered so I can relax in my room. The joint I was using has changed up their menu and last time i ordered roast pork fried rice they went to finely chopped roast pork which was almost non-existent in the pint of rice!!! I called them on it and they said it's how it is now. Was my go to, people were nice but they went to this cost cutting bullshit that ruined the the experience for me. (I won't name the place because some of the food is still good but ...) So I looked for a new spot, was given this menu by the hotel front desk ... close by I checked the Yelp and Grubhub reviews, scoped out the pics and decided to try it out. Ordered pork fried rice, chicken wings and egg roll, along with wonton soup. The worst and why 4 stars, wonton soup; bland wontons seemed old like frozen, not fresh and homemade. Roast pork in the fried rice; good, but not enuf pork.. chopped in chunks like it should be just need to add more. Good; Rice was tasty flavorful and fresh, jasmine rice. The egg roll standard, the wings were the highlight!!! Crispy big, fresh and hot..(temp). I mean I had four but wanted more. I will try this place again and update with other choices ... but for now recomendable....
Food is great!!! Never had a bad meal and delivery is fast. They have regular delivery and Uber delivery.
The food was great! The crab rolls were tasty. The price was good too. It's the closest one to Uber to from JFK airport.
The people here are super nice and the food is consistent. We used to visit more whrn we lived in the area. Not a fancy place, just the average "hoodinese" joint. The food is clean tasting, no extra greasiness or oil. I've had quite a few things from them, most often shrimp with string beans (so good). They make white fried rice that actually has a lot of flavor. My bf loves their honey wings and vegetable fried rice. Today I went for the shrimp Mei fun soup. Kinda plain but still packed with veggies, shrimp and a ton of noodles. Well worth the $4.50. Check out their combos they are really good with having an array of options.
