Being Chinese, we did not expect to find great Chinese food in the middle of NoCal. .Dragon Inn caught our eyes and we ordered the sizzling rice special,Curry Chicken,and off-menu gai-lan (Chinese broccoli) with oyster sauce, which kind of is the dish with which we...compare all Chinese restaurants. We are pleasantly surprised. It was the perfect end to a stressful day of business travel that placed us in this lovely town of 12 thousand. Through the friendly staff, we discovered the owners and cooks are from China and is the reason for the expanded menu with spicy offerings. So you can now experience the traditional Cantonese offerings with exciting forays into Schezhuan and other tastes of China. Lucky Marysville! This area has extensive history in the story of Chinese immigration in California. It was the major port for gold prospectors in the 1800.More

I've eaten here before and it was delicious. It's been a few years! But on this visit it was greasy tasting. We had take out dinner for 3 which is enough for 4 people to eat 2 meals. The egg foo yung was very good...as were the egg rolls. I was expecting more flavor and less grease.More

We've been eating here for the past 36 years. The owners are finally getting some younger workers but the food remains consistently good. They also specialize in tropical drinks that are awesome. The last time was takeout for my mom's 84th birthday.

We found the Dragon Inn years ago. We wanted food that was not on their menu. We explained how we liked the food and the cook has been consistent for years. It is a good place to go when you are tired after work or...for a large family gathering. The Last time 4 times we went with a large family group many said it was the best Chinese food they had ever tasted. It is located across the street from Taco Bell which makes it easy to find and not far from the 10th Street Bridge. The Price is right, the food is great, the cloth table cloths are nice, the bathrooms are clean consistently. The service is good. Water are filled consistently. They check often to make sure all is good with you during the meal. It is interesting how they can remember each time exactly what we want to order and how we like it.More

The lady that answers the phone is consistently curt and rude. The food is not as good as the previous owners, nor is the service. However, it is still the best chinese this town has to offer.

The menu is basically the same as the previous owners but the food tastes a little bit different. We assume that the cooks are not the same. However, the food was good, service was good. All in all, a good experience. We intend to go...back.More

It's always hard finding good Chinese food in a new place but we definitely found it here. We couldn't find a menu on line so I just drove and ordered there. The wait was short, the people friendly, the food hot and smelled delicious. It...certainly didn't disappoint. We are picky eaters when it comes to Chinese food. My daughter had her customary beef w/ broccoli, steamed rice and egg drop soup. The egg drop soup was not on the menu, egg flower soup was, they are different. The egg flower soup has some vegetables in it, the egg drop is plain ole egg drop. Which is exactly how we like it and it was excellent. A container for three, at least, probably 4. We also ordered the fried wontons with cream cheese and crab ( aka, crab Rangoon type) also, AMAZING! I ordered mini spring rolls, I have to say, not my favorite, they weren't bad, just not what I was looking for. I had the chicken friend rice, it too was perfect and my son in law had the orange chicken, which he said was excellent. We will most definitely be going here again!More

Went here for dinner with my wife. We had S&S pork/General chicken and fried rice/chow main. The food was great, and not too pricey either. We did not really care for the noodles, but the rice was delicious. We have been here before, and they...did not disappoint. The only thing we noticed, no soup was brought out. Not sure why. Try the house fried rice!More

This place used to be the best Chinese restaurant in the area. The food is so bad now that I would not feed it my dog. We had the dinner for three and it was horrible. The broccoli beef stank I could not get the...smell out of my nose all night. The sweet and sour pork was greesy nothing was worth eating. Please don't waste your money on this placeMore

Go to Dragon's Inn Restaurant for high quality Chinese food - everything is fresh and I especially like the brandy chicken and the house chop suey. The Mongolian Beef is also excellent with a lot of spice.

We don’t eat Chinese food that often, but my husband loves Dragon Inn because it’s an old family favorite. On our most recent visit, we were completely ignored while others around us (who had come in after us) had their drink orders taken and served...and food orders taken and partially served by the time a waiter actually visited our table. When it comes to the food, I personally believe most of their dishes are catered to American preference and lack authenticity (but that’s most places these days). Most dishes are rather bland and the proportions of meat and vegetables in most dishes are quite disproportionate (i.e. a scallop or two and a TON of broccoli) given the price they charge per dish. I’m not typically a negative reviewer, but I’ve had better food and better service elsewhere.More

We ordered takeout for my mother in law's birthday because we all had the flu. This is not your typical strip mall Chinese restaurant. The selection was excellent and the food beyond delicious. We loved every single one of the items ordered: chicken fried rice,...chicken with broccoli, shrimp with mushrooms and Mongolian shrimp. Great choice.More
