Ordered the salt and pepper chips and the chilli and honey chicken and only a few bites of the chicken gave me horrid food poisoning. I’m currently sat up at 4am trying not to throw up/pass my guts. I’m so disappointed, I was happy at first about the early delivery but if it means I get undercooked/gamy chicken, maybe not.

Had a takeaway tonight, was the vilest Chinese I’ve ever tasted. Meat was just chewy gristle, prawns were like rubber & rice reheated. Cost was £45 & it went in the bin. Do not be fooled just dire!

Well..tonight's debacle means I WILL NOT be ordering from this restaurant again. The female I spoke to on the phone needs a serious attitude check. I was shocked at how she spoke to me when I explained in detail what THEIR website has on it. I told her that the menu option even has a photo attached and what they actually sent us was not what I'd ordered. But I am wrong, and she started shouting at me telling me how I'd ordered the wrong thing and that it is completely apparent that I'd ordered the wrong thing! And how other customers 'know there's 2 options and know which one to order'............what??? So I'm supposed to be clairvoyant? Really? I don't think so. I have a screenshot of what I ordered - please note the green '1' that tells you that is what is on the order. And a photo of the actual dish I received. I assume most people would devise that these are not the same dish but I am supposed to know that the photo attached to the menu is not what I'll get sent to me???????? I wish I'd got her name to send to the owner, I'm that angry at how she spoke to me. Am utterly shocked and disgusted at the phone call and will never go here again which is a shame because the food is actually OK, but they seriously can not get orders right and GOD forbid anything turn up wrong because it'll be your fault!

I don't usually leave reviews on a takeaway but I think everyone needs to hear about this hidden gem. Food arrived 40 mins before it was due and on good Friday. We were given free mini spring rolls and prawn crackers. The special fried rice was absolutely unreal. The soft noodles were perfect, not too greasy or salty as you sometimes find. The salt and pepper crispy beef was perfect. The honey chilli pork was really good, very crispy coating lovely sauce and not too much veg but the veg was crunchy and delicious. The mixed starter was great value and all items were lovely. Cannot fault this Chinese, very pleasantly surprised and would highly recommend.

Absolutely disgraceful, I was looking forward to a decent Chinese as I know live in London and I look forward to having it from up here. The prawn curry was like water with no taste. The Singapore rice was just rice with bits of tasteless meat in it. The crackers where like plastic. I also asked for cutlery as I got it delivered to the hotel I am staying in. No cutlery came with the food. I don't know how the place is open

My order was taking a while so we decided to head down to the shop to collect it instead. Obviously I wasn't too impressed that my delivery was already late but on arrival we seen just how frantic and stressed they were. They were very accomodating despite being under so much pressure. The food smelt amazing and tasted even better. Highly recommend, this will be our go to takeaway!

Both of the above names share the same address so unsure if they’ve changed names or amalgamated into one restaurant!? Anyhow, we’d tried Redragon from there before and was reasonably happy so it was time for Greendragon. The delivery arrived just on time, hot and ready to serve with a big bag of free prawn crackers. One beef curry, one chicken and beef curry with salty chilli chips and fried rice were plentiful but we both felt that someting taste wise was missing. Not that impressed

Absolutely disgusting food and service. Ordered food with curry and gravy and both tasted like granules, nothing like the traditional sauces you’d get from other chineses. The food was freezing cold and overall presentation was appalling with the sauces all over the bag and carton. The driver gave our food and then drove away to later have a phone call stating we hadn’t payed despite opting for pay by card on just eat. We received a mouthful of the “manager” claiming we’d stolen the food and then proceeded to have a woman knock on our door telling us it was a disgrace and to f@@ck off. Will not be ordering from here again!

….having been given the wrong post code. This seems to be a theme with one of the ‘eat’ apps, not the delivery drivers fault but meant we waited a while until the poor woman found us having rang us first. Having said that the food was still hot, ready to serve and plentiful. Indeed there’s enough for a meal each on another day. Obviously, plentiful doesn’t always mean quality, but for us, it was a really good choice.

We have been to this restaurant a few times and also had takeaways but last night's was absolutely horrible. I don't know if it has changed hands but the service was terrible, practically ignored by the staff and eventually served by a young boy of about ten years old. The food was awful, mostly onion and a few bits of meat. The fried rice was oily and smelled of old oil. Felt very nauseous after eating it or at least some of it. Will never be ordering from there again.

Sorely disappointed after looking forward to a takeaway from the Redragon. After travelling all day from the Cotswolds we thought we would have a lazy night and treat ourselves. We have eaten here in the past and it has been really lovely. Our Ginger and Spring onion Special with Egg Fried Rice meal tonight consisted of mainly onions (LOTS and LOTS of onions) a couple of large slices of unpeeled ginger, 2 King prawns, a few slices of chicken, beef and pork ( very fatty) some julienne carrot and bits of Spring onion in a mediocre tasting sauce. The amount of meat was adequate. Not nice at all. I am sad to say that I really couldn't recommend this takeaway to anyone after this experience. 😞

I am not one for writing reviews but I have woken up the following day and still feel the regret and the disappointment. The Red Dragon has always been my go to Chinese for the last few years. Have never let me down in the past. However, in the space of a few months something terrible has happened. The quality of food has gone from 5 star to maybe 2, if that. My regular meal over the years has been house special chow mein, mushroom foo yung and chips. This was always exceptional. Then tonight happened :-( Firstly, now that they use a smaller plastic carton for the house special chow mein it seems to be half the portion size. The amount of meat in the dish has definatly halved. The chow mein itself was bland and swimming in sauce. This was not the same house special chow mein i had raved about to friends and family. Next came the mushroom foo yung, which to be fair was decent. But, its basically an omellette so id expect that to be spot on. Only criticism is that it always came with rice or chips as part of the meal. However, they have removed that option so had to buy extra chips. The chips themselves were hard and crisp, mostly made up of scraggy ends fried to a crisp. Half had to be thrown away :-( Finally, the portion size of the prawn crackers has also halved. Yet more disappointment. My partner got King prawn green thai curry, she complained that there was a distinct lack of coconut flavour and that it tasted more like chinese curry than a green thai curry. Also, delivery was over an hour but that wasnt a major issue. Just unexpected. Last night i was willing to put this down to them having one bad night. However, this morning my disappointment remains. The difference in the chow mein has really got to me. Its gone from being the best id ever tasted to what iv had as a microwave meal from Asda. Too many things were bad about this meal for it to be a slip up. In conclusion, i need to find another Chinese for my chow mein fix. If you like house special chow mein i suggest you do the same.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!! Ordered x2 rice and DRY chow mein dishes, due to be delivered at 7pm. Turned up at 7.40pm....both chow mein dishes had sauce in! Rang up and asked to send it all back for a refund. Because they got the rice correct, they wouldn't refund that! Obviously I'm not going to sit and eat a tin of rice! So we accepted to have new chow meins sent out (within 10 mins apparently!). Within that waiting time we received a call telling my son it was his fault! We're sitting here 50 mins later, STILL waiting for the delivery!.............. So the new order FINALLY arrived and they have only replaced ONE of the meals! Also refusing to refund too!

I visited here for the first time with my family last month. As a big fan of Chinese food - it honestly was one of the best I've ever had! Everybody left feeling very full and happy with their meal, and on top of that... the waitress was lovely! She was smiley, cheerful and checked on us regularly or came straight over whenever we needed something. The portions were good for the prices as I overestimated what I was able to eat, and there was a lot of vegetarian alternatives. Vegetarian chicken/duck/etc is something that isn't very common in Chinese restaurants so thank you!

What should have been a pleasant dining experience turned out to be memorable for all the wrong reasons. However, to justify the 2* that this occasion deserves would need me to spend a lot of time writing up the problems and mistakes with our meal. Instead I will give it 3* and opt for not visiting this establishment again. It is my considered opinion that customer satisfaction is disregarded if it means having to replace, at their cost, any errors in the meal provided from the kitchen. Poor excuses from front of house are not acceptable.

This is around the 4th time ive ordered takeaway. Dont get me wrong, the food is lovely. They just can't get the orders right! Tonight was business as usual. I ordered 3x number 88 (I have to ask for the number as this has been a major issue in past orders) priced online tonight for £4.50. When my order arrived there was only 1. I called back and the lady tried to say she'd confirmed one, we had a whole conversation about the kids not liking the sauce already on it, she's saying that the sauce normally comes separate, but our last takeaway it didn't and the kids complained. Anyway, she says she'll send the 2 missing meals out straight away. 25 minutes later it arrived. Charge? £10???? I said 'no it should be £9 (im pretty good at maths). Delivery guy says no, its £10, ill show you the bill. They haven't even charged delivery. Yeah because she made a mistake! He produces a non descript till receipt for £10. That makes no difference, your online price is £4.50. Absolutely ridiculous.

Visited the red dragon on a Monday evening. If you look at the rest of my reviews I’m easy going and rarely give a bad one but this is probably the worst review and experience I’ve had in a restaurant.The only good thing was the 2 girls who worked serving the customers they were as helpful and polite as they could be and very apologetic.I visited this restaurant with a friend who is gluten free.She ordered vegetable spring roles for starter and soup was served. Waitress took it back and brought the spring roles which had prawns in them. Vegetable spring roles with prawns?????????Waitress took them back and we could hear the chef shouting at the girl NO MORE repeatedly, I’m presuming that he was meaning he wasn’t happy that both orders were wrong and had been sent back. I could hear the girls trying to explain to the chef that the menu states vegetable spring roles but it had prawns in but he didn’t seem to think that was a problem, because of this we decided to leave, 1 because the attitude of staff ( not the girls) and 2 if they are going to serve veg spring roles with prawns in them then they can’t be trusted to serve gluten free.Well never go back and I will not recommend this place to anyone!

Haven't been in this restaurant for a few years now. Each time we have visited it has changed ownership - now run by two chinese gents with a front of house english guy serving. We were the only visitors early evening but the takeaway service was extremely busy. Good service and quality of food was excellent. We thought the prices were at least double what you would pay from your local carry out for the same dishes - but our choices were far superior to that supplied by any carry out. The sizzler duck was the best I have ever tasted chinese style - cooked pink to perfection and not shrivelled or dry stringy which happens too frequently in my opinion. On balance the extra charge for dining in the restaurant was acceptable because of the excellence of the meal.

One of the few places in South Shields who have a very good vegan range. Lovely and helpful staff here.

Just ordered from red dragon, chicken wings and salt and pepper chicken. Order arrives and its salt and pepper chips? How does tbat sound like chicken? Ordered loads of food from here before it changed hands. Never had an issue when Doris had the place. Called the restaurant and some girl answered, told her what was wrong and she just hung up on me. Tried the delivery driver's number, and he said just ring them back in the morning they will give you a discount off your next order. As if i,m gonna order from there again!!!

I asked for gluton free but they did not understand eventually recieved dinner with my gluton free sauce. Then another source came 15 mins later which to my horror was the gluton free sauce but I had already used the other sauce!!!!. They apologised but I was ill. Please be very aware of allergies and eating here! Serving staff where lovely x

First time we've tried this for a takeaway as our usual one was shut. Picked it because of all the great reviews. The food arrived cold, starters were nice, but the main was bland no flavour at all. We left most of it. We also ordered a diet coke for my diabetic friend and they delivered a normal one which she obviously couldn't have, extremely disappointed and won't be back!

We've been here quite a lot over the years and couldn't believe the change. Wondering what had gone wrong, well for a start the service! You could hear food being cooked but it was never ours (there was 1 other couple) in the restaurant so it wasn't busy. We waited 50 mins for our food..

Great restaurant found by chance whilst looking for a bite to eat before a show at the local Customs House. Great variety on the menu and would recommend the Red Dragon Special Grill. Clean, tidy and great value for money.

Decent Chinese restaurant. If you're vegetarian, they have a really good choice. First place I've been where they offer substitutes for duck, chicken, prawns and beef.

What has happened to the place.? 2 years ago I had a wonderful experience thete for my birthday. Clean and superb service and food. However after my visit yesterday I would never go back. The food was so full of MSG that both my son and I had an allergic reaction. I left a whole plate of food and didn't receive an apology or discount. The place was dirty and the decor tablecloths and napkins.cheap. The chicken was pumped full of water and the soup tasted of chemicals. Horrible

We have been using this take away for years. I have chicken curry with no onion and boiled rice . My husband likes the king prawn curry with boiled rice . We also have the chow mein. It's all perfect. I also love their prawn crackers, they are not too fishy .love them Would definitely recommend

…. And more importantly very tasty. Chicken curry, fried rice, mushrooms and chips. Again utilised their own site to save money. Delivered very quickly and enjoyed it with our free prawn crackers.

First time ordering and will be last. Told when ordered would be half hour, it took nearly an hour (wed teatime). Quite rude when rang to ask, politely, if on way! Mushrooms in VERY thick lumpy gravy and curry sauce tasted nothing like curry sauce, not really sure what it tasted of. Chips were OK. I will see that although late, it was hot however barely ate any because of taste. Read reviews before ordering so was surprised and disappointed.
