Small Dragon in Croydon

Delicious food, generous ingredients, packaged considerately and came hot and on-time! Would recommend!

The food is bland and taste likes butter. But it's cheap so it's alright.

Having ordered from this Chinese, I have never ever experienced such a rude lady on the phone, part of our order was missing and she basically accused us of lying and she didn’t want our custom anymore, she made me feel so belittled, we are spending money for a service and to be spoken to the way she did was shocking. Avoid if you expect good service

Usually order from this Chinese over the phone, food is good, but unfortunately the rude lady on the phone basically accused us of lying as we did not receive part of our order, and said she does not want our custom anymore, never ever have I come across such rude person when ordering food !

Once again, a delicious meal from Small Dragon. Thank you :)

Wrong food delivered , on time, Original order sent, food very good

The food was awesome ruined by stale prawn crackers. Prawn Crackers are an essential part of the meal. Therefore ruined 😫

Sorry but this was the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted, the dumplings were burnt and broken with the stuffing falling out, and what was even in the dumpling? It was like wet mush with bits of onion and some sweet corn, the hoisin sauce was light brown and lumpy! And everything else arrived burnt and cold, tasted funny aswell, so didn’t eat it went in the bin and got compensated through just eat team, seriously need to get better cooks in that kitchen

Think we found our new favourite. Decent portions and tasty.

Fast delivery as promised food was good. Shrimp in chow mein tasted weird but other than that everything was good.

Salt & pepper prawns were very nice, in general this place is a lot better than other Chinese takeaways I have tried and delivery was on time. Would order again

Always fresh, tasty and quick delivery. My favourite Chinese by far

Best Chinese takeaway we've had. Will be ordering again!

Food not very nice and such a shame after such a long wait! Unfortunately won’t be eating from there again

Beautiful tasting food, would order again

Very pleasant and friendly delivery girl

Thank you, best Chinese takeaway we've had!

The food was very good, they delivered at the perfect time. The food was still hot. I would order from them again.

Great food, and it was delivered on time

Flavourless food and to be honest, a waste of money. Ordered crispy beef it was as soft as mush, as for the duck well, im sure the foxes will enjoy it.. really not worth recommending or the delivery wait.

Took a little over an hour to get our food, which is fine, that’s how it was advertised. Except the food was a bit bland and not authentic. Crispy shredded duck was soggy and Tofu sweet and sour was yuckie. Spring rolls were good though.

Fresh and hot. My only critique is the duck could have been crispy I roasted a bit more.

The duck in plum sauce was pretty disgusting, but the rest of the food was decent as always.

Food quality is subjective. If they use fresh or the right ingredients or is it cooked well, then all the above are true. However the taste is subpar, not even authentic Chinese cooking. Correct me if I am wrong, the cooks aren't even Chinese for this outlet.

Food is great, service is good. My reliable local Chinese takeaway.

Delivered a little earlier than expected, but that's fine. The food was piping hot and delicious.

I really regret ordering from here. The food was late, the customer service was non existent and the food had no flavour. A waste of time and money.

The large veg spring roll only had bean shoots inside and the chicken one had no veg with it either so extremely bland. The notes left for the restaurant were clearly not read as we had asked for medium spiced dishes and extremely spicy dishes were delivered.

Food always good when we have it, we had a call also to say they had a problem and we sorted it out with them very good service all round

Estimated delivery time was 7.15. Called restaurant at 7.26 regarding delivery, they said man has left 10 minutes ago, should be with me soon, didn’t get delivered till 7.50. Called 3 times before this for an update. Very disappointing and food is cold.

Food is always reliably good. Quantity just as you would expect.

Guys, WE LOVE YOU! The food was amazing will order it again and again and again!

Always tasty, fresh and good value. Speedy delivery.

Despite initially being told it would be 40mins, it took 2 hrs to get our food. When it arrived it was luke warm, sweet & sour sauce had totally congealed and everything else was just bland by that point

Missed my egg friend rice from delivery and was late. Issue is they don't understand is that the rice is integral to eating the mains. I had a sauce based main and no rice. All they offered was a free rice next time, didn't offer to redeliver. Service is appalling and have complained to Just Eat.

Arrives on time, always yummy. Our favourite Chinese restaurant.

Food arrived on time and piping hot. Very tasty meal. Will order again

I’m giving these people a 1. If I could give zero I would. They Falsely advertised an item for a certain price and refused to deliver what they said they were advertising. They do not own up to their mistakes and refuse to correct it when they are in the wrong. There are far better Chinese restaurants with much better customer service. Get your food elsewhere peeps

Everything tasted fresh and the portions were great.

Fantastic food again! The consistency of Small Dragon is amazing, it is the finest restaurant I've ordered from in the area.

Delicious food, particularly good chow mein and Kung Pao beef was nice and spicy. Delivered early despite being a Friday night. Excellent! Thank you again Small Dragon :)

Sweet & sour was really disappointing, meat was nearly all fat, it was soggy & unappetising

Good flavour, good value, for money

Has become my regular as the food quality is really good and always arrives nice and hot.

Great tasting food, great delivery service & will definitely order from them again

Ordered chicken chow mein, pork chow mein, prawn toast & chicken balls and both my husband and I were up all night & day un well 🤢

Delicious food, much enjoyed. Highly recommend! Thank you :)

We order our food that came late and not the whole order came. We are still waiting 2 an a half hours later we are still waiting. Really poor service. 😥

Excellent food customised as requested very tasty. Customer service excellent. Very pleasant delivery driver also. Thank you Small Dragon.

Food was lovely and piping hot, arrived early, all i would say was the sweet and sour sauce was very pale and watery so didnt taste as strong as it should do but rest of food was lovely

Best Chinese food I've ever had, consistently.

Best local delivery I have had from Just Eat

This was the best Chinese takeaway I’ve had in this area. The food is really delicious, fresh, flavoursome and not at all greasy. They are also better value than many others around. The rice was only lukewarm and the delivery was 15 minutes late, but the lovely food made this easy to overlook.

The food here is always very good, although depending on which day you order, the fryer oil may not always be at its best for chicken balls. However only a small detail.

Very good, nice and hot, definitely fresh!

From spring rolls to pineapple fritters it was the best take-away Chinese I ever had! (there was a black bean beef in between as well)

The food was very tasty as always. Great value for money and full of flavour. They always deliver late but I can overlook that

First time ordering from here food was lovely but did find the chicken balls and prawn crackers oily

It was the worst Chinese I’ve ever had.

Person who delivered the food was smiling and happy even though I took some time to open the door. The food was great and was very reasonably priced. Also decent-sized portions.

Excellent quality and delivered early will definitely use again

The food was exceptionally hot, fresh and tasty. Could have done with more salt and oil for my liking, but it’s a good sign of a more wholesome takeaway. I waited a long time for delivery, and it was late, but the food was lovely enough to make up for it.

Great tasting food. and arrived piping hot!

Ordered food two hours in advance, an still arrived late. Paid for order on card when ordering an when delivering they tried to charge me again for delivery. Food was okay, I've had a lot better from other takeaways.

ordered 2 times now, great food

Nice hot food. Generous portions, and didn't skimp on the meat.

This is our local Chinese that has never let us down. Very reasonable and always tasty. Very much recommended

very nice, will be ordering again

Nice food not fantastic though.

very good food. they used very less oil which made d. food very hygiene

An all round experience, even with a problem with our post code was sorted out by the staff at the small dragon

The best Chinese I had so far in this area! We've ordered 4 different dishes plus two starters. None of the meals were greesy, and all had different tasty flavours. The portions were big, it was enough food for two dinners. Thanks a lot and we'll definitely order again. BTW the King Prawn in Breadcrumbs were outstanding!

The food took nearly 2 hours to arrive, the phone number given was constantly engaged or not answered, no apology on delivery and the ribs were the wrong order.

Always order from here when i fancy a cheeky Chinese, food never disappoints and the staff are very friendly which always helps. I recommend their duck spring roll, they are amazing!

Tasty, quick, arrived early. :-P

Hot and delicious as always. As of yet considered the best

Pretty good. Crispy duck wasn't as crispy as i like but food overall was good. They missed 1 item off my order but after calling the restaurant they apologised & came back & delivered it pretty quick. Impressed with that

Sadly, Very poor quality food.

Appalling meal delivered tonight. Very disappointed and will be looking closer at this take away and will report back. Right now do be careful. Will say more about actual dishes once we ordered shortly.

Crispy Chilli chicken was way too sweet and soggy. Quantity is good

Our local and regular Chinese takeaway. Always great, speedy, friendly service and very reasonably priced. Recommended.

food arrived on time but was cold. portion sizes are smaller than other places and I was shocked that they used styrofoam containers! it was nice but I’ve had better and I won’t be ordering from them again.

Portion sizes were great and arrived on time and everything, but the food itself was just... disappointing. All the sauces were watery and tasteless and the noodles weren't cooked properly. To be fair I ordered on a busy night so maybe that's not usual for them but I really didn't enjoy it.

Food was terrible. Far too salty, ordered 3 soups which all went in the bin. Totally inedible. Would never order from this place again.

Delicious and hot. Good portion size. Friendly delivery driver. X

The Thai curry tasted nothing like it should. The was 45 min late. We ordered earlier in the day to ensure no delay, and yet they delivered late.

It was a bit late but only five minutes so no problem. The driver was friendly. The food was excellent. Would definitely order from them again.

Very good service and tasty food always good 👍

The gentleman who delivered, very polite. food was really hot and for the fried stuff crispy and absolutely delicious. Thank you for again a wonderful meal.

The food was absolutely vile, tasted like it was covered in 4 whole bags of salt, too disgusting to finish, waste of money, don’t bother ordering from here.

squid was nice, laksa soup was thin and not very flavourful. duck on rice was weird- had lots of round sliced carrots and cabbage which was unexpected. not to my taste either.

Food arrived fast, hot and tasty. Thanks.

Wouldn't recommend, all the dishes we ordered were pretty bland and to be honest all tasted the same.

If I wasn't starving after the hour and 40 minute wait I would of happily of sent back the let's put it generous Luke warm food. Justeat stated food had been delivered 30 min before it was. Disappointed and wishing I ordered elsewhere.

Ok food but would probably try somewhere else next time. Not bad, just not exciting. Delivery was very prompt.

It’s was just alright. Chow Mein and mix veg were as expected,but didn’t like their smoked chicken or crispy beef.

Yau Lee has closed down and I was forced to purchase from here... Not sure why but I'm done with Chinese Food. Opted for a vegetarian meal and the veg was soggy almost as if it came from the freezer. I would never order from here again.

Beef was very chewy and the smoky chicken was cold

Best Chinese delivery we’ve had in a long time. Tasty food, good portion size and not greasy. Will be ordering again soon.

Best Chinese in Purley i've had in years
