Quick info
About China Dragon
China Dragon is a Chinese takeaway in Cannock, based at 1 Festival Ct. Its cooking follows the takeaway format, where a rice dish and a main are ordered together as one meal. Egg fried rice appears in orders alongside chips, and chicken curry is one of the mains that goes with it. Chicken balls are another item on the order list. The kitchen works from a Chinese menu, and the business operates as a takeaway rather than a sit-down restaurant, so meals are taken away from the counter.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers overwhelmingly point to late deliveries, with several describing waits of close to two hours or more through Just Eat and Uber apps that claimed the food was nearly there. One says the order went to the wrong address, another says it arrived barely warm in a container that looked kicked around, and a third had an order cancelled after paying. Calls often went unanswered, and one caller was told the shop was closed when the website said otherwise. On the food, the chicken fried rice and oyster chicken earn praise from one diner, and the ribs, prawn toast, prawn crackers and sweet and sour sauce get good words too. Others report tasteless egg fried rice, soggy spring rolls and burnt-tasting oil. One reviewer says chicken balls were pink in the middle, and another says they felt sick afterward. One reports vomiting after a main course of chicken and vegetables in a dark sauce. A single customer who returned for forgotten rice was asked to pay again.

“Unable to comment on food quality as I tried to place my order via telephone. Was told closed. Strange as the website said different. (2300) Maybe it’s good though after reading further reviews going back it seems I’ve only been disappointed by my order not being taken.”

“Great chicken fried rice and oyster chicken with additional vegetable options and sauce. Ordered around 6pm on a Tuesday. Food arrived promptly and hot.”

“3rd time ordered from here - should have realised from the last time but thought would give it another go. NEVER AGAIN. Waited nearly 2 hours for takeaway even though the uber app was saying it would be delivered within the hour. Had to call for an update and miraculously it was with the driver. Some of the food came lukewarm and to be honest it was tasteless. Will never order from here again and judging by a lot of other reviews a lot of people feel the same.”

“Partner ordered a meal tonight and my meal was practically inedible, starter had burnt oil taste, my main meal normally is full of beansprout and mixed fresh veg ie mushrooms, peppers, onions in a clear flavoursome sauce unfortunately their version was just chopped baby sweetcorn, (and what I think) is cabbage or lettuce leaves and lots of dark black thin un appetising sauce with a little bit of chicken. Very poor, I ate what I could with the rest going in the bin but shortly after I threw up what I had eaten. My partner did say the ribs were very nice hence why not. 1 star.”

“First time I've ordered from here due to usual takeaway being closed and never again! Egg fried rice was just rice no flavour, spring rolls had random bits of meat in (1 prawn, 1 ham? 1 chicken) and very soggy beansprouts, batter was crisp on the outside and gooey underneath, chow mein was ok but chicken wasn't nice, yuk sung I can't describe smelt weird and the meat was mushy. Prawn toast was a hit, prawn crackers and sweet and sour sauce was great. Very disappointing for nearly £40 😕”
