Authentic and delicious Chinese food with good service. They have a wide variety of menu options with good execution on every one. The beef noodle soup is the house specialty, with very tender beef and chewy round noodles. XLB are very well made with a thin wrapper, and pan-fried dumplings have a crispy bottom and rich filling. Popcorn chicken is crispy and light, and there are plenty of options for all spicy levels.
This place is very busy during the lunch hour, make sure to check in on Yelp to save your spot ahead of time. We ordered way more than enough for two people, but everything was really delicious so it’s worth to take some home for a second meal.The beef noodle soup is their specially, the meat was so perfect, the exact right flavor and texture. Pan fried buns and xiao long Bao are both super juicy, make sure to not burn your mouth! Also, they have pretty good house milk tea (very traditional flavor) and giant passion fruit tea (a little too sweet for me). Servers were surprisingly attentive given they are so busy all the time. I will be back soon!
Stopped by when driving through LA and this satisfied my craving for Chinese food!Really enjoyed the beef noodles, thought the meat was very tender and the noodles were great. Add a bit of chili in the soup and it's perfect.Also order the rice cakes! Always hits the spot.
Since its opened, we promised ourselves that we will give this place a try, but we never had a chance to dine here until today( 5/3).We glad that we tried this place for XLB and potstickers. The food are so good here. Although Mr. Dragon is known for its beef noodles, we didn’t order any noodle dishes. Instead, we got our favorite XLB, potstickers and shanghai pan fried buns.As everyone does, the first thing to do is to compare the XLB here to Din Tai Feng’s XLB. Taste wise, the XLB here are very juicy and flavorful, but the skin is not as smooth and as thin. I think no body can imitate DTF’s XLB skins.However, I like the potstickers here better than DTF as the skin is more chewy or al dente and the meat is more tender and juicier.Then the Shanghai pan fried buns, they reminded me of the ones I had from the street vendors in Shanghai near the Bund.Everything here is cooked to order, so when food come out, they are hot and steamy.The prices are very reasonable. For all the three dishes we ordered, the bill came out to be a bit over $30. If I were to dine at DTF, the bill would be more than $50.The servers here are very friendly too. They provide good services. Will come back for their famous beef noodle soon.
Delicious & good service ?
My new favorite spot for Taiwanese food. They even sat us down 30 minutes before they closed and the service was fast. The food was delicious and quality was on par/ better than places like ding tai fung but without the super expensive price tag. Will need to come again to try the other items but the ones I’ve tried was good.
Absolutely delicious Taiwanese restaurant that specializes in the classic Taiwan Beef Noodle Soup. We ordered the Spicy Braised Beef Noodle Soup and the kick was just perfect. They also have great side dishes such as Pan Fried Pork Buns (a must!) and Beef Roll Cake.I regret forgetting to order Pickled Vegetable on the side for my noodles. I also wished I came with more people so we could've tried more food.Huge shopping plaza with plenty of free parking. Nice updated restaurant. Looks like a pretty busy place, but their service is awesome and quick. Best of all, the portions are extremely generous with great price value. My friend and I both had enough left over for a second meal. Expect to pay around $25-30 per person after taxes & tips.Definitely will be returning whenever I'm in the area to try other items!
Great food with amazingly fast service and great portions. Favorite would have to be the pan fried beef udon noodles. Everything came out extremely quickly and hot. The dumplings were good too but I think the star of the meal was definitely the noodles!
Heard about Mr Dragon on YouTube and really wanted to try it out, specifically the pan fried pork bao and the xiao long bao. Amazing…and they weren’t even our top two favorites that we ordered!! The spicy wontons we’re at the top of the list. A close second was the beef noodle soup, followed by the pork potstickers. The rest were very close behind. Fillings were generous and the broth and beef in the soup were chef’s kiss. The best meal we’ve had in a long time. I can’t wait to go back!!
Ordered Popcorn Chicken (no spicy), Beef Roll Cake, Xiao Long Bao, House Special Beef Noodle Soup, and Dan Dan Noodle. I made a takeout order that was ready in 15 minutes. Promo at the time of a free milk tea with cash payment, don't expect them to match the quality at a milk tea shop, but it'll temporarily scratch your craving. Popcorn chicken didn't stand out, it was fine. Beef roll cake I would definitely order again, a good portion and balance between beef and roll. Did not eat the beef noodle soup nor the XLB. Dan Dan Noodle was the right amount of a portion, was pretty good with the toppings and sauce mixed together. Very busy inside, about two parties had to wait to be seated on an early Saturday evening. Not a large parking lot so be mindful and patient of that.
