We stopped at Chinese Dragon in Bastrop on the way home from a football game last weekend. We love that place. I have never ordered anything I didn't like. It's also a good place to go if you don't want to battle a crowd. We have never had to wait to be seated, even on a Saturday or at lunch. They have very large portions and I always have to ask for it to go box. My only complaint came when I got my bill. It was not itemized so I asked for an itemized bill. It was much higher than we usually pay. When the waitress asked us what kind of rice we wanted we said fried rice, and she did not inform us that there is an up charge of $2.50 for that. It may say that somewhere on the menu but neither of us saw it. They also charged us for two drinks and we only got one. Not sure how this happened but I will definitely check things more closely the next time we go. It was a shame we had the mixup because their food is excellent

Whew had to turn around 3x on 71W. It's hard to see off of Hwy 71 in the dark. Seemed moderately busy on a Sunday. I initially called to order to go but finally hung up when no one came back. I decided to order at the restaurant it it did take a little while. Here's what we ordered. 1. Kung pao chicken-lacked flavor - like where's the salt at?! 4/5 2. Egg drop- standard fare but it was tasty 5/5 3. Wonton- again for me, the broth was bland and my husband didn't get any innards- just the wonton shells- he liked it ok-3/5 4. Crispy chicken wings- yes crispy but dry and again needs seasoning 2/5 5. General Tso- nostalgic flavor from when I tried this in Austin 35 years ago -delicious 5/5 6. Egg rolls- pretty good 4/5 7. Spring rolls- these are not fried! I didn't eat these at all as I don't eat cilantro so got thrown out 8. Side of low mein - meh for me (This was all to go)

We ate here after picking up my pickup truck from the dealer. It's a nice, clean new restaurant with friendly staff. The food was made fresh, good and with huge portions. We came out feeling stuffed with lots of leftovers. Our adult platters came with soup, egg rolls, and we ordered drinks., The sugar rolls were an excellent desert at the end. Felt like they were made from scratch. I don't think I would eat here again, because it was $100 for 2 adults, 1 kid, and a toddler.

This place never misses. I usually get the chicken and shrimp and it's amazing. Family has been coming here for years and will continue to with no end in sight

My buddy introduced me to this place which is good since you can't really see it from the highway. It's a nice building in a weird location, but I will make every effort to go there as often as I can! We ordered the crab Rangoon, the curry beef, and the walnut shrimp - all were excellent, and very authentic! I hadn't expected to find food that reminded me of Chicago's Chinatown in Bastrop, but was pleasantly surprised. Highly recommended!

Excellent for takeout! Food was hot and ready by the time I arrived to pick up my order. The food was still piping hot when I arrived at my house. Definitely a hold in the wall small town home restaurant I recommend every local and visitor try.

Used them for catering for a team meeting. The food was good. Portions were plentiful and they were very helpful in the ordering process and even delivered to my location. I will use them again in the future.

This place is SO good! Every time I come, it is hard to decide what to order because I want everything on the menu. The teriyaki chicken and the orange chicken dishes were great. My boyfriend has also loved all the meals he had. The calamari was a little over-seasoned but the taste was good. The service here was really fast and the staff always checks on if you need anything. It has great decor and lots of windows so I'd recommend eating inside the restaurant instead of takeout. Great place!

Pulling up I had second thoughts, but boy was I wrong. It is refreshing to see a family owned restaurant with this level of quality and care put into the food. I stopped by because I was on the road and saw the sign. I wasn't disappointed and you won't be either. The service was top notch. I was checked on multiple times and the staff is very friendly and polite. This level of quality for service is few and far between now and days. The ambiance is what you would expect, but soothing music and the relatively quiet atmosphere made my meal very enjoyable. I would recommend the won ton soup and the general tsos although the whole menu looked really good. For American Chinese at an affordable price point this place is great!!! Overall 9.2/10

This is a chinese restaurant that celebrates Chinese-American cuisine by amping up the flavor. I had the garlic beef, stir fried with bamboo shoots, wood-ear, and water chestnuts in an amazing brown sauce. it was slightly spicy, tangy, rich and very flavorful. It's not a fancy place, but the décor is nice and the service is friendly. Mostly, the chef seems to have a passion for flavor. I don't come here for authentic regional cuisines, but for a bold take on Chinese American food in a comfortable setting with fair prices. They also seem to be good at frying things, too. I'm not into that, but my wife loved their crispy chicken wings and other people seemed to be enjoying fried appetizers (egg rolls and such).
