This little place was fantastic! The food was to die for! We had the numbing dry pot combo, Pork belly buns and spring rolls..... hands downs the best pork belly ive ever had! The dry pot was soooo! Good! The spring rolls were crispy and the dipping sauce they come with.... I dont think I can ever go back to the orang/pink sweet sour sauce most places give you.
Good and authentic Hunan restaurant. Admittedly it would be difficult to know what to order if you aren't Chinese, but the typical Cantonese dishes won't be the best here. However the Hunan dishes are great. The Sichuan dishes are also around the best in the Sacramento area, but nowhere near the best Sichuan restaurants I've been to. However, great spices and flavors overall.
Thoughly enjoyed our meal here, the service was fantastic and it was so cozy. The food was delicious and prices right for the portions. I'm always looking for good Walnut Shrimp and theirs was best I've found in a long while. I will definitely be adding them as a regular spot when I want some Chinese food.
I ordered what I thought was honey walnut shrimp, it was called fried walnut prawns w house cream sauce. There was very little sauce and it was rather spicy, but what did I expect from a place called Spicy Dragon? I also ordered some chicken chow mein. It was standard nothing special. The vegetarian spring rolls were standard, and the pan fried green onion pancakes tasted like fried tortillas with no onion flavor at all. Not worth the 60 dollar price tag. Save your money!
Food was great! 5/5 The shrimp fried rice tasted very fresh and came out pretty quick. The chow mein had good amount of crunchy veggies and a flavorful sauce. The salt and pepper chicken was fried to perfection in a light and airy batter that resembled tempura. We were so hungry we forgot to take a pic before eating so the pictures are after we had our fill and the aftermath. Service 2/5 for the initial treatment as we walked in. We arrived an hour before closing and told to wait at the front while the server said he will go ask the chef if it were okay. He came back a short while later and said the chef gave the okay for us order. About 20 minutes later, a party of 3 arrived and they were immediately seated without the server having to ask the chef if they could order. The only difference between us and them is that they were Asian and we are African-American. Edit:// As I was about to post this, a different server came up and said "I know it was edgy when you guys first walked in. It's just that our regular menu closes at 9:30pm and our skewer menu is open until 10:30pm". My thought to that is this: the original server who asked the chef if it were okay for us to order had no idea if we were ordering the regular menu or skewers. He saw us walk in and immediately said he had to go ask if it were okay. Overall, I had a great dinner with my husband as we were celebrating our anniversary and in a cheery mood.
