For owner Katy, the dream of opening up a restaurant turned into reality when Dragon Express was founded in 2000. Her goal was to make food that made people happy and full. What started as a small and humble Chinese Restaurant has grown into what it is today, completely transforming Huntersville with its tasty dishes and inviting atmosphere. We love our regulars and new customers. Please come and enjoy a meal at Dragon Express.

Always loved Chinese food. We had it at least a few times each week when I was growing up in Metro Detroit. I have walked by Dragon Express many times when I run up to Target, finally tried it last night. We picked up the sweet and sour chicken, Orange chicken, some soup (for my husband). I requested the brown rice to replace the white. I wish they would mix the sweet and sour sauce into the chicken but I guess providing it to you in a container to pour over when you get home, is how it’s done for carry out. I think after tasting both, I prefer the orange chicken because of it’s texture.

We have been ordering from here since before the current owners and while the food has been consistently good with nice portions and hot when we get it from both owners, the new owners and their online ordering system is so flawed that it makes you want to go somewhere else.
The last 3 or 4 times we have ordered online when we show up to pick up our order it is the same story " we just got your order" and when you show them proof you ordered it more than 30 minutes ago she always has some excuse, finds a way to blame others.
Why bother to offer online order ahead service if it does not

No Fear of this Dragon!
There is that tiny Chinese restaurant right in the middle of Northcross Shopping Center in Huntersville and they make a superdelicious Hot and Sour Soup, probably the best in town!
We had no chance to try some of their other meals so far but my wife always willingly accepts the drive from our Charlotte residence to buy her favorite soup from Ms Katy's Dragon Express.
Swift, friendly service in a clean environment comes together with a sweet smile from Katy, the lovely restaurant owner.
We at PHIL'S WORLD TRAVEL happily rate this "tame dragon" five stars and recommend

They've redone the whole place and it's so gorgeous! Everything is more modern and the customer service is amazing. The food is amazing, I love the egg drop soup. Every time I order it, it's always steaming hot and so are the chicken wings. They're awesome and I never have any complications with my order. There's always a smile on their face and everyone's just so nice.

The food is terrible and not fresh! It was definitely frozen and microwaved. I was trying this spot for the first time so I ordered a few dishes... they were all so disgusting we threw all of the food out! I've never done that before but I honestly felt like the food was old and we could get sick. Shame on the owners for serving awful food and calling it Chinese. I wouldn't serve anything from here to my dog.

Let's be frank, this isn't gourmet food. It's simply takeout American Style Chinese.
The restaurant itself is small, and decorated in an old fashioned way. The tables, booths, wall, and entire decor is dated and probably hasn't been updated in years. The menu board and paper specials look tired.
I've been for the lunch special, and the food itself is cheap, good, and piping hot! For less than $7, I got a big portion of food with an egg roll on the side. I ordered the mixed vegetables, and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't stuffed with cheap onions. It had

I stopped by this place wanting to grab a quick bite after leaving Target. This place is right around the corner. The price was good for hot and sour soup, Sa Cha Chicken with white rice and a sweet tea. The entree was not very flavorful but the soup was pretty good. The portion size was good, I ate half & saved the rest for later.

It was a daring adventure for the following reasons:
Dusty vent
Sticky tables (all)
Dinner Specials taped to wall on printer paper
Dirty kitchen
No paper towels left in bathroom
Refrigerator not working (they gave me cup of ice)
Despite these red flags, I still approached the counter.
Me: "Hi, do you recommend the Bourbon Chicken?"
Lady Behind Counter: "Yes. Some people like."
"But isn't Bourbon Chicken a bayou thing?"
"I don't know. Some people like."
"Okay. I'll get the Bourbon Chicken with white rice and wonton soup instead
