Me and my wife never leave reviews but this place is worth it. We have used the Dragon I a total of 13 times and it's been consistently good, every time. We used to use the canton wok in swad for our Chinese food. The new canton wok is so consistently bad and overcooked 70% of the time. As we live just around the corner from the Dragon I, we thought we'd try it a try. I'm so glad we did because this place is now our favourite local Chinese.

Ordered twice in a short space of time having never previously used this particular takeaway. We ordered on New year's eve and again the weekend after for our son's birthday. The new year order was a large order for 10 people costing £125 which we ordered and collected from the takeaway. We waited for 10 minutes after arriving when they said it would be ready so not a problem.The food was piping hot and beautiful no complaints from anyone. We were one dish missing out of 20 when we dished up at home,but by the time we'd travelled just over a mile it was waiting for us so I think they hadn't packed it rather than not cooked it. We phoned up to say it was missing the lady couldn't apologise enough. The second order was just for 3 of us and we ordered to be delivered. They told us it would be just over an hour and it was an hour and half before it arrived but again it was piping hot and full of flavour. It must be hard to give an accurate time when they have numerous orders to get out and the 20 minutes wasn't really an issue to us. Both meals were lovely and we will now use Dragon I as our default takeaway

First time ordered and very impressed. A very comprehensive menu of regional Chinese meals as well as a selection of Thai dishes. Over ordered ! But glad we did as each dish was very good, not one that was not enjoyed. The selection of hors d'oeuvres was very tasty as was the Tom Yum Soup. Crispy duck with plenty of spring onion and cucumber and not mean on the pancakes. We had a selection of mains all excellent and some left over for the fridge. Delivered on time by a friendly face. Definitely will order again - has to be one of the best Chinese takeaways in the area.

Very disappointed of how low quality the food has become small scraps of meat and very bland tasting. Used to be so nice, big pieces of meat and full of flavour, really don't know what's gone wrong, maybe new owners or cutting quality and increasing prices due to cost of living crises, either way I won't be returning

Absolutely disgusting food! Was cold on delivery and sent the wrong thing , sauce smelt like gravy from a can of dog food ! My lawful honest opinion! There's much better Chineses around to spend your money on. Avoid this one.

Rang for family birthday meal, advised 1 hour for delivery..2 hour's 45 later, no food. Offered to collect but told we had only just ordered and they were really busy. Waste of £65 as food eventually delivered luke warm even though we only live 5 minutes away. Will never use them again. Rude call taker, birthday ruined.

If your order from here and pay on line you will be put at the back of the queue. So pay by cash if you want a really salty bland meal. Honestly I live a a 5 min walk from this place and I had my famil6over for a birthday party so ordered a delivery. 2 hours we waited and when it came half the order was missing . Honestly it's terrible

I can’t even bring myself to rate this place 1 star. I am absolutely disgusted with the behaviour of the manager, we ordered our food and received it over an hour after ordering, when we received our order it was stone cold and we had multiple items missing. When we called to discuss our issues the manager got extremely defensive. We asked for a refund and she started shouting and saying our small order was the only way she pay her utility bill we were then hung up on and we rang back multiple times only to be hung up on another 3 times. Do not go here they are extremely unprofessional and rude and the food is shocking quality.

Such a terrible place..food came stone cold and tasteless also had missing items. We called up 3 times asking where our items was and they refused to give them to us or give us a refund..the manager was super rude and started shouting down the phone when we was being reasonable to her. Do not recommend this place at all.

£40.70 worth of food delivered, it was so cold we had to microwave it . I phoned the restaurant and was told I can have 10% of my next visit. I find this unacceptable. I feel the meal price should have at least been refunded and delivery costs . Meal ruined waiting for everyone to cook food in microwave

After reading many excellent reviews I had to place an order and I wasnt disappointed the food was amazing. Tonight I placed my second order, after nearly 2 hours I called to get an ETA and i suspect they somehow missed my order as I was advised it was just about to be cooked. 2 hours and 15 minutes from order to delivery and it was luke warm, dry and very disappointing as this was my one treat I was looking forward to. They did give me free prawn crackers as an apology which were really delicious (I usually don't like prawn crackers) so that's something I guess. Perhaps just having an off night, I'll give them another chance.

If you're ordering by phone expect a delay in collection because Dragon i is so popular that there's a fair wait on the weekend if you order after seven thirty. But it's worth the wait. Only one criticism to be had; they need to watch the salt content in the food. Otherwise excellent. Just saying..........!

We had a takeaway on Saturday night and it was one of the nicest takeaways we have had in years. The dishes were freshly cooked and very tasty. 3 of us shared 2 meals and there was plenty for us all. We had crispy chicken balls sweet and sour with fried rice and chicken satay also with fried rice. There was a complimentary bag of prawn crackers which were lovely too. We will definitely visit again.

Seven Star is by far the best Chinese take away in Leicester. John is always kind, the food is excellent and have never had any issues. They even make deep fried salt and pepper tofu special for me as I miss this dish and is usually only available in London. I'm not a veggie but love deep fried tofu. Everything is excellent, soups, appetisers (portions are huge), Crispy Duck, Peking Duck, crispy shredded beef, crispy Lemon chicken... just everything is the best. I often ask for cashews in my dishes. Feeling hungry now after writing this review! They are always happy to accommodate my extras or changes. They go out of their way for my whole family and are always welcoming.

Absolutely astonishing!! It was the best chinese food we have ever had. We have never had such a fresh, tasting, beautiful meal. Ordered online ready within 15 minutes for collection. We stopped having chinese for a long time due to other places around melbourne Derby area being so greasy poor quality in food. We thought we would take a risk, and my gosh, it was worth it!!!
