Not to shabby, food was tasty but some oversight on ingredients, service was excellent, and unfortunately noisy for this establishment.

Very delicious Chinese food, Guadalajara the best one.

Holy cow!!!! After being in Mexico for the last year I cannot express enough how amazing this meal was I grew up in Seattle which is king for Chinese food however dragon rojo literally tasted better than any restaurant there and is just as good as the best authentic ones in New York, cdmx, and los Angeles

The food was amazing and very delicious. I had the pork ribs and it was very good. The service was a bit lacking, my entree came with rice and the waiter forgot it. There was a little awkwardness when I was asked a few times if I needed something else, so I just explicitly asked for the bill. Again I stress the food was excellent I will be coming again.

Food is delicious, especially 梅乾扣肉Place newly renovated with odor-free restroom Dinner on 3/18/2025.

The most authentic Chinese food I've eaten here in Guadalajara. I'll be back soon
