We had a nice dinner at New Dancing Dragon restaurant. The food was tasty with a gentle mix of different flavours. The restaurant has got a nice atmosphere with low lights. However, the feeling of rush is generated to you by the fact you have got a limited amount of time to sit in (2 hours) and the way the service treats you. As soon as you get your seat, you will be asked to order your drinks. We did not even have the chance to view the drinks menu. In the end, you will get the bill just a few minutes after finishing your food, without even asking. That was like a sign they want you to leave.
Having a birthday dinner with our family. The restaurant has a tastefully elegant décor. The food was truly delightful, with a special shout-out to the stir-fried clams in black bean sauce. We wholeheartedly recommend this place for a memorable meal.
High quality Malaysian Chinese style dishes. Restaurant has its own private parking so its never an issue. Price is fair. Service is good too. Recommended!
Food was authentic (sicheun), tasty & packed with flavour. “Mouth watering chicken” & cumin lamb were a stand out. A real treat - but unsurprisingly given how good it was - was packed and quite loud inside. Great for a big group for dinner though
A great Chinese restaurant in the centre of Summertown.
The dish is tasty (might be a bit on the salty side) and in generous portion. Booking is highly recommended, but we just walked in on a Tuesday evening and got a table for two.
A bit pricey (£40 per person) but we ordered quite a lot for two (4 dishes) and ended up taking away half.
Will visit again and with a bigger group.
Had a takeaway collection from here, can say the people behind the bar are very friendly and welcoming.
Had a quick pint of Tiger while I was waiting.
Can honestly say I had the best crispy chilli beef & chicken schezuan I’ve ever had here.
The egg fried rice could have done with some more MSG + soy sauce in.
I’m normally a very harsh critique.
Wish I ate in instead, as the restaurant looks great.
Very nice restaurant, good atmosphere. They had good service although at times it was difficult to get the waiters attention but other than that I thought the overall experience was good. I found that it wasn’t expensive and very affordable.
Found this place on Google and what a find! Car park is of average size and can involve shuffling of cars due to double parking, but definitely worth the trouble as the food is amazing. Very popular with the local Chinese community which is always a good sign and it certainly didn't disappoint. A very wide menu with very attentive staff, quick ordering of food and drinks and very little waiting time for food to arrive. One of the best Chinese restaurants I've visited. Large portions but takeaway plastic dishes available to take home the spare food, great idea.
Beautiful place for Chinese in Summertown.
We had small portion from the vast menu and truly enjoyed each and every flavour that touched our lips 😋 Will definitely be coming back.
Dancing dragon got us dancing in the moonlight.
Food was excellent. Book if Saturday dinner. Or Lunar new year, or any day festive.
My friend recommended me this place when I visited Oxford. Nothing wrong with the food, nothing special either. But sometimes no surprise is good enough, especially for a Chinese restaurant. Will come back.
Had dinner here a few weeks ago and enjoyed it very much! The restaurant is in the North of Oxford, in the Summertown neighborhood, and it’s nicely decorated, making for a comfy and relaxed atmosphere. When we went on a Sunday early evening, the restaurant was very busy and we had to reserve in advance. We ordered a mix of starters, including dumplings, spring rolls and crispy duck with pancakes. All were delicious but the duck stood out and was a highlight. For the main, I chose one of the Chef’s specials, namely stir fried beef in spicy Sichuan red oil. It has 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ on the menu, so is supposed to be quite spicy but it wasn’t overpoweringly hot, with still a nice kick to it. The portion sizes are big, so we took the leftovers for take-away. Good value for money as well and can only recommend.
Great food although the portion sizes are large. Make sure you're enough people. But the restaurant was very good with to go boxes so lunch and dinner at home today.
Excellent food and service on our sons birthday meal. A first for us garlic chilli frogs legs were amazing, the scallop dish had loads of really well cooked scallops as did the king prawn dish. They also accommodated well for my wife who is vegetarian.
