    Wonderful ambience and really great food. We were so full and still had lots of food left over to take home. The restaurant want crowded at all and the wait staff were very courteous and friendly. Our food was brought to us in good time after our orders were made. The price point is about mid to high tier depending on what is ordered. Will definitely be going back.

    It's definitely a great place for a date. They do take out as well. Great ambiance and very friendly staff, that was available at every moment. The soups we tried wasn't the best, but that was the only disappointing moment of my date. The food was definitely delicious and you'll definitely have enough to take home to take for lunch the next day. The prices are great and reasonable. Definitely recommend here if you're on a budget.

    Really nice Chinese food. Environment Very large premises with large fish tanks and tables that may accommodate a family or large party without issue. Attentive, friendly service with a family orientated vibe. Windows provide beautiful views of the mountains. Food Servings are huge (especially the rice and noodles) so while it may seem a little pricy you get a lot for your money. We ordered the honey roast chicken, ribs with chilli and pepper, noodles with veg. Spring rolls, egg fried rice and prawns with chilli and pepper. It was way too much for two people as the mains also come with a large serving of boiled rice. We didn't touch the egg fried rice and took enough good home for another two medium sized meals each. 9/10 would recommend

    On my recent visit I went here for one of my birthday dinner for dinner and some Dim Sum (that you can enjoy on Sunday’s before 2 PM). Second time dining here though I’ve had take out here a couple times and it is definitely a nice place to dine. Really good decor and helpful staff. This is indeed a nice place to dine with family and enjoy good food. I enjoyed their shrimp dumplings, pork buns and black bean ribs for dim sum which when paired with either their spicy or sweet dipping sauce was a really good combo. For main course I tried roast chicken, special chow mein and pork in capital sauce and I enjoyed every bit of it. So paired with the nice ambiance and good food- Dragon Court is definitely a place to visit with friends and family.

    Food use to be good but has downgraded. Order a couple dim sum items that were not very good, flavours were bland or didn't taste good, some items were too greasy like stale oil was used so it wasn't very flavourful or tasty, food came out luke warm so the food got cold quickly, some items ordered had ingredients missing and food items used to be bigger, for the price the food isn't worth checking out there are nicer places

    We were seated promptly. Melika served the warmed dinner plates and tricked us into thinking the dishes were coming out shortly. It took twenty minutes more before we were served lukewarm noodles. Notwithstanding the temperature of the food, Dragon Court is a staple Chinese restaurant in Kingston because of portion and taste. This has not changed.

    Went with my colleagues and we were seated immediately and our server was pleasantly engaging without being intrusive. We were full and satisfactorily dined. Clean spacious environ with adequate lighting. No loud music so conversations possible. ... we shared our large meals so the pics shown is what I took but there was more than enough to go around.

    WORM IN MY FOOD !! This by far has been my worst experience ordering from a local restaurant. Dragon Court Restaurant cares absolutely zero about their customers. Absolutely atrocious Customer Service from the cashier who is the first point of contact. Went to the plaza to conduct business at another establishment and decided to order from this place ..worst decision. Reached home open the box only to find an obvious WORM front and centre on the vegetable. Contacted the company felt as if I was a nuisance, extremely nonchalant, no sincere felt apology no effective measures were employed to correct this issue. I do not think they understand the severity of this issue.

    Tasty meals and good customer service. Dragon Court is one of the oldest Chinese restaurants in Kingston but has maintained a good reputation. Whether you use the dine-in or take-out menu the variety is wide. The ambiance is pleasant and the servers treat customers professionally and friendly. Meals are tastily prepared. I would recommend a visit.

    We decided to check out Dragon Court restaurant in Kingston, Jamaica, at the request of one of our local friends. Overall, we agreed to provide this establishment with a poor rating. Atmosphere: The restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere. The dining setup was organized, and the restrooms were clean. Service: Upon sitting down, we were greeted by our waiter. She was able to take our order with no problem. After 15 minutes of not receiving anything from our order (including appetizers or drinks), she returned, inquiring about how we would pay for the food as a group. After waiting several more minutes, a member of the group went to retrieve the bottles of water and soda that we had ordered. It took an hour for everyone to receive their food. Entrees came out before the appetizers. At the conclusion of our dinner, the waiter was unable to separate the check. Food: I had Chicken Sui Mein, which was excellent. The deep-fried shrimp was not eatable. Overall, the food portions were large. We had two large orders of chicken fried rice, which were burnt and uncooked. The third one with rice was fine. The Schezwan Shrimp dish was decent. The person that ordered it said it was basically “ketchup and shrimp.” The Crispy chicken was dehydrated. The orders of chow and lo Mein were decent Overall: Our experience at Dragon Court was abysmal. Multiple servers did not know what dish they were serving to their customers. On the bright side, the food portions were large, and the pricing was reasonable. I hope that they correct these issues.

    The server was good but the quality of the food has deteriorated a bit. I was not pleased with my last visit. I think the place needs a redecoration to make it more appealing.

  • 4/5 Shemlawd 8 months ago on Google
    Great place to dine. I hosted my wedding reception here. The staff was great, though they didn't tell us that with each table comes with complimentary white rice so we ended up ordering more rice then we needed. The waiter was very patient with us and took all of our orders correctly. I took one star off because the servers weren't as diligent and forgot about my mom's meal until it got cold. Still great service, don't ever order the plum duck unless you enjoy Chinese ramen

  • 5/5 Melissa D. 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 Jonathan B. 10 months ago on Google
    The food was lovely but the service there is quite slow waited for over an hour to just get seated and had to wait more as well to get served and wait for the food. Yes I know they are busy most of the time but the customer service could be improved.

  • 3/5 Bernard A. 11 months ago on Google
    Pros: The food is good and the variety is good. The local wait staff do their best to serve you. Cons: Don't expect high-end service especially if the managers and family are helping out the wait Staff. They're obviously not trained as waiters.

  • 4/5 Ocean “King Neptune” S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, location isn’t bad, and customer service was great. Came here on my birthday and my wife got them to play happy birthday on the speakers for me, along with bringing me a slice of cake. Really appreciate the effort from the employees they were never far and very attentive. Food was great, the portions are good, and the prices aren’t bad either. Good place to have a little date. Definitely will be coming back again.

  • 5/5 Nicholene H. 1 year ago on Google
    awesome take out experience as much as the dining experience

  • 3/5 Debon L. 1 year ago on Google
    Eat here consistently but the service has dropped significantly and the manager is not focusing on the quality it’s more about how much money can be made. I have had many good meals here and deem them the best in the business but this new take on the business is not it. I would appreciate some improvement where this is concerned.

  • 3/5 Kim F. 2 years ago on Google
    It was ok....quite spacious I wasn't too please with their serving of wontons and the costing for it ....but the food taste good all in all.You could actually have a family dinner night out there....didn't have to wait too long

  • 5/5 Ceejae H. 1 year ago on Google

    Great food but take out service size seemed to have gotten smaller

  • 1/5 Javis E. 1 year ago on Google
    Went here with my wife and the service was horrible the waitress had no curtesy and was quite distasteful in deportment. We felt like we were second class maybe because we never had a big table with 10 people that's why we were treated this way. I'll never recommend you to anyone and your sweet and sour pork taste bad!

  • 4/5 S R. 1 year ago on Google
    This is just about my meal, it was okay. Based on how busy the place was, I expected the meal to be really delicious but was somewhat disappointed

  • 4/5 Alexander D. 1 year ago on Google
    Dragon Court is solid as far as Chinese cuisine goes. We've enjoyed many dim sum sunday's there aswell. Due to the quality, they tend to be a very busy place.

    Not my first time here. Nice soothing environment to sit and dine. Very spacious with polite and service driven attendants. There Is also a bar area. Great for take out service. You can call in your order and pick up. Also good for a small lunch(Lunch Box) that your pocket can meet. And the food, delicious. Nice to have Fried Rice that's not oily and salt. Really great place for family, friends, business or groups to dine.

  • 4/5 Taff S. 3 years ago on Google
    This is our go to dim sum spot for the family. The value that you get here is amazing when compared to other dim sum spots. The food is always good and my kids live the atmosphere there (the 2 fish tanks are also an awesome fetaure for them). There is also free Wi-Fi so when the kids are finished their meals they can normally keep themselves entertained while myself and my wife can have some time to ourselves. Highly recommended!

    Let me say the ambience at this place is so great, no over the top load music, i can laugh and talk with the person beside me, thats great. The area is clean and well kept. There was brisk engagement the orders were taken effortlessly, no confusion as what this was and what that was. The food did not take an hour to arrive at the table, that was excellent and when it arrived it was done according to the order. I will visit this restaurant anytime. Prices are good.

    I cannot believe that I purchased food from this establishment that included a dead cockroach. I am completely turned off. I will never buy food from here again you do not care about the public health safety or you would employ better processes that would make sure that people can buy clean food from you.
