Review Dragon Court - Charlotte

Warning, this is a hole in the wall that has seen better days. However that doesn't mean the food isn't delicious! We came here for dim sum and we not disappointed! My only problem is that I didn't have enough room in my stomach to try every dish that rolled by in a cart. Everything we had tasted like I remember from my many trips into Flushing, NY growing up.

My family eats here consistently. Though the shopping center that houses the restaurant is in desperate need of repair, there is much life, energy, and adventure to be experienced within the walls of the structure. Eat some great food. Meet some great people. Explore some great grocery stores. There is also a full menu featuring larger and more decadent dishes. If you’re hungry, order a big dish or two from the menu and then enjoy smaller dishes from the dim sum carts. Saturday mornings are busier and the food is hotter and fresher.

Overall it was good dim sum. The way it's served is authentic style. The servers roll the steam carts table to table and you choose what you want to eat. Flavors was great. The area where the restaurant is located is in a run-down strip mall. The outside should be fixed up because at first glance It looked abandoned. But my cousin and I ventured on and searched for the restaurant in the inside.

First time eating here. You may not be able to tell from the picture but the dumplings are big! And the flavor is good. Rumor has it they have soup dumplings sometimes. I'm going to have to go back and try them.

Great place for dim sum! You can try a lil bit of everything and will probably like it all. There are no frills but everything tastes good. My favorite are the pork bao buns, but everything below was good. The restaurant is huge cuz it used to host private events and on weekends used to be packed pre-covid. Everything was clean. Server was nice and quick. Only downside is the crazy rundown parking lot

Awesome authentic dim sum spot. Its located inside Asian Corner mall. Now the mall is pretty abandoned except for a Pho restaurant, an asian market, and Dragon Court Restaurant. Food was great! They pushed around steam carts with very good dim sum and also has great regular chinese cuisine. Highly recommend!

Great food. Great atmosphere. Cost of dining is very acceptable. Decent service but not expecting much from these more authentic Chinese restaurants (you just gotta understand, they don’t care to be known for courtesy. The dim sum is delicious and AWESOME! Then, the Peking duck is served beautifully and fully flavored. Probably the best in the greater Charlotte area. This is authentic Chinese dine in. The same you’ll get in San Fran or New York. Don’t expect to be catered to. The waiters are running around the floor the entire time and no one is actually assigned to you. Go to the host if nothing else. I’m just here to eat

A unique experience just outside of NoDa. You walk through a practically abandoned mall and then walk into another world when entering The Dragons Court. Sundays are a must for an extensive selection of Dim Sum. Must eats include the Gai Lan, Turnip Cake, and Tendon. Fried Tofu tastes like custard when served perfectly hot. Very good and helpful waitstaff.

Very great tasting Chinese food. The price is really low, the portion of the food is excellent, and the waiters are very friendly. The rice is excellent quality, like real Asian rice. The taste of the food is the perfect Asian-American taste, not too strong but rich in flavor. The exterior of the place is quite bad, but the food is excellent. Don't come on Sunday afternoon, it would be full with people.

Food tastes so great. Only go here when you are hungry or starving since youre gonna eat a lot. Looks sketchy on the outside but all is good inside. Just here for good food

This was taken from Truc Vietnamese Cuisine, outside Dragon Court. We ordered medium pho ($9). Lots of noodles and meat and it's big. The Thai milk tea is also sweet and refreshing. The lady who served us is very accommodating

Dim sum is great and authentic. Unfortunately the restaurant will be closing the end of December 2022. Very sad to see the only restaurant in Charlotte that serves authentic dim sum closing its door after 30 years! The chefs (owner's parents) are retiring, owner said he's ready to start new chapter in life not tied to the restaurant. Asian Corner Mall is dilapidated, parking lot full of pot holes, but the trash and abandoned vehicles have been gone and cleaned up since October, homeless people mostly absent too. It may be threatening to some patrons because of the mall's dreadful condition. However, the dim sum is worth a 2-hour trip for me to visit at least monthly. Rumor is this mall's new owner will tear it down and rebuild, I hope it is true as this mall is in a very good location, there are a couple of Asian grocery stores and a good Vietnamese sandwich shop in this mostly empty mall too. Don't know why a city the size of Charlotte doesn't have or can't support a dim sum restaurant? Dragon Court will be missed :-(

I go here atleast once a week! Charlie and the crew are always pleasant to deal with. The food is above all other chinese near and far! I lived in Dallas, TX for 2 years and could not find authentic Chinese food like dragon court! The food never disappoints! Do yourself a favor and try their food. Believe me, you'll be back!

Everything we had was so good! The servers were friendly. My husband and I went around 11am on a Sunday and didn’t have to wait to be sat. Normal price range too.

Love the food, especially when they push the dim sum carts out. The Jellyfish Salad is really good. They push out the carts to your table Saturdays 10:30am to 2:30pm. Sundays 10:30am to 2:30pm.

Sadly, the last place in Charlotte to get dim sum. It’s good, I grew up as a Charlotte native eating from this place and the now-closed dim sum on Central Ave. Honestly, I’ll take what I can get lol. The food is pretty good like I said but not as much variety as bigger cities like Atlanta. Each plate is $4-7 ish
