I've eaten there regularly for the past five years. Literally the BEST Chinese food I've ever had anywhere (and I'm from New York City). Highly recommend the ribs with the fruity sauce, General Tseng's chicken, Crispy Aromatic duck, and Sizzling Black Pepper Beef. But it really doesn't matter what you order, everything is perfect.
The staff has always been absolutely brilliant and accommodating we have been coming here for a long time and we never had a bad experience so will come back here soon ;))
My favorite restaurant in Richmond. Fantastic food and friendly service.
My favourite Chinese for over 20 years and still going strong!
I'll definately be back....superb evening....Thanks Eddy.
It's nice to go to a restaurant where they fill up your water glass when you're close to finishing and place your serviette on your lap. The Dragon Inn is on the prices side compared to other Chinese restaurants but you get what you pay for and the food is absolutely delicious. Would highly recommend and to book for popular evenings (Friday night etc) we ordered so many delicious starters we didn't get to a main course. Will try again next time.
Amazing restaurant, wonderful food, freshly made and service was attentive but subtle, ie didn't hover at the table. Very busy too so would recommend to reserve a table.
Everything was absolutely splendid, the food was flavourful and the meat was tender and well spiced. Service was amazing! Lovely people
Just back from a wonderful dinner with colleagues. Eddie and the team are great, the food is amazing and full of flavour, truly a gem of a restaurant.
Phenomenal restaurant. Chinese like not tasted before, crispy, fresh, beautifully presented. Huge choice of dishes for any diet. Atmosphere has a real buzz and usually packed out. Lovely, courteous service and owner Eddie is fantastic. Very special place. Visit if we are ever back in London.
Superb food that never disappoints. Good for delivery, but better dining in.
The Dragon Inn has been part of the Richmond restaurant scene for many years and is always busy even in today's financial climate.
The food is delicious and always tastes freshly cooked. They have a good selection of wines and other drinks. Even though it is busy the atmosphere never gets too noisy - you can carry on a conversation without having to shout ...
It is not the cheapest ... but represents good value for what it is. Be sure to book rather than turning up on the off chance.
Excellent food, great service, extremely fast serving of the food after ordering it. Will absolutely be coming back here.
Friendly staff great service. Lovely food. Cosy place
What a lovely restaurant. We hadn't booked and was lucky they had a spare table. Loved the crispy duck!
First visit with family and a friend. Very happy with both the food quality and service. Waiting times for food preparation very reasonable. The ambience music very nice, quiet and relaxing - good for eating, digestion and not hindering the conversations between us. Looking forwards for our next visit!
Finally, we found a good chinese restaurant in the Richmond / Twickenham area!!
Varied menu with interesting dishes - General Tso's chicken was my favourite - with lots of flavour and didn't leave us feeling bloated afterwards.
Lovely place, very pleasant chef and owner (warm personality and excellent memory)
Food is always an experience for all 5 senses!
I may be biased as I've been going here for 33 years. However the consistency of both service and quality of food is difficult to beat . Noticeably more expensive, but you'll never walk away disappointed. Eddie and his staff keep the place running smoothly even on the busiest of evenings.
This place is simply amazing! The food is brilliant - the crispy duck is an absolute must every time we go and the crispy lettuce wrap chicken, vegetarian dumplings in chilli sauce, and the aubergine are also fantastic. Everything we have ever ordered has been so lovely!
The portions are very generous too - we always end up taking away some of the food. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity you are getting.
The service is also great - quick and personal. The staff really care (both about the customers and the food they serve) and nothing is too much trouble.
If there is any downside to this place, it is that you need a reservation most of the time, but it is totally worth it and you will not be disappointed.
As always a first class meal! We ordered a takeaway through Deliveroo and had a long wait time due to it being a busy Saturday night. After I ordered, the restaurant called to say they could prepare the food sooner than the Deliveroo app advised and managed to get Deliveroo to bring it forward. Not only did the restaurant call to ask if this was what we wanted but called again to re-confirm the new delivery time themselves. They recognise a regular customer and we appreciate that. This is why we come back again and again. Well done Eddie and the Dragon Inn team- great service, delicious food!
