About Dragon City
On 124 The Roman Way in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Dragon City is a Chinese takeaway serving the area in the evenings only. The kitchen stays closed on Tuesdays and runs the rest of the week, giving a set rhythm for anyone planning an order around it. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis, with no reservation needed before stopping by. The menu draws on familiar Chinese takeaway cooking, prepared to order for collection. With no booking system in place, the counter handles requests as customers arrive, and the evening-only schedule shapes the whole operation around a single stretch of the day rather than lunch or daytime trade.

“Absolutely terrible food,very greasy and very bland in taste”

“Been here quite a few times before and it’s always been ok. Tonight, I think the regular chef phoned in sick and they asked a bloke over at the bus stop to help them out. The worst food I’ve ever had from a takeaway, all in the bin.”
- Linda Hetherington
“Service fine. Food dreadful. Chow mien full of spam and carrots, little to no sauce. The salt & pepper chips were raw. The chicken balls were full of dry chicken and half cooked batter. The soup was greasy and tasteless and gloopy. The beef and oyster sauce was bland and tasteless. Spend almost £60 on this will never go back. Should have gone to M&S for a dine in.”
- Sophia Wilson
“Been to this Chinese a few times, not too badly prices but portions aren’t very big (thankfully I get full relatively easy) so feel like it’s not the best value for money, however food is usually tastes relatively good, although chicken was a bit chewy with not that much flavour, probs would go back but wouldn’t be my first option”
