    Let's start off by saying I have had significantly better Chinese take-out before. This is nowhere near as good as my place back home in Syracuse. But what makes me give this a 4 star review is the price, proportions and service. I am a college student, but that does not mean that I have lower expectations for food. In fact, I am quite the foodie and hold high standards for much of what I eat. The food here basically tastes like food-court Chinese. It's not exceptional, but it satisfies your hunger for Chinese. It's on average with other Chinese takeout establishments. Being a SUNY student, they have this deal where you choose your main dish, rice and either a soda or eggroll for $5.85 before taxes and tip. By the time we have it delivered, we pay $7.50 a person. My one friend is boring and gets the sweet and sour chicken with plain fried rice. She loves it but I feel like plain battered chicken can't be considered Chinese. But that's just my own opinion. I've ordered both the sesame and general tso chicken before. The chicken usually has a little bit of a crunch, not a lot, but there is always plenty of sauce (which I like to accompian my white rice). The sesame chicken is on the sweeter side with a little bit of a smoked flavor at times. The general tso on the other hand has green peppers and onion mixed in with it, unique for what I'm used to, although it is not spicy whatsoever. The rice varies at this place. Last time I got white rice some of it was undercooked, but I never had that issue the dozen times I had it before. The egg roll is pretty decent, good flavor and crunch, but it can be oily. It's definitely not something you want to eat on a diet. This has nothing to do with their food but their fortunes can be pretty weird. I got one recently that said "sometimes the beans and the bacon in peace are better than cakes and ale in fear"...? I pride myself on being a fairly intuitive person but I really don't understand this fortune at all. Every time we order here we have it delivered and the time can vary. We always order on the weekend and, in the past, we have had the delivery time vary from 20-60 minutes, but the food always comes warm and the delivery people are pleasant. Overall, if you are looking for a quick cheap Chinese fix, this is the place.

    this was my go to place when I went to Suny Albany my friends. The food is avg the price is cheap if you are a Ualbany student. What do you expect to get for $5 bucks come on my friends. plus most the Chinese food we get is pretty much all covered in salt anyways. Can't hate on it that much, food is avg the Del is quick do not go pick it up the parking lot is small and its very hard to pull out their drive way since is pretty much right next to western Ave. $7 you get yourself a meal plus soup.

    Came to Albany for the weekend and was carving Chinese food so I order from here and I must say the food was good but most importantly fresh. I order the chicken and broccoli with pork fried rice. I also got an egg roll: which was ok! The prices are really affordable ! Did a delivery to my hotel and the delivery man came right to my room door. Definitely will order from here again if I'm ever around this area.

    I've often said "there is no Chinese food I don't like." Well, I found it here in Albany. I ordered chicken rice soup, black bean chicken, pork fried rice and sparerib tips for delivery to my hotel. The delivery guy was nice and appreciated my generous tip. It went downhill from there. Open opening the bag, I found they didn't put any spoons in the bag, making it hard to eat the soup. Nonetheless, I tried with my fork, but their was more chicken cartilege and then chicken meat. Into the trash went the soup. Eating soup with a fork is not very neat...but there were no napkins sent either. OK...on to the sparerib tips. They were all bone and were flavorless. They quickly joined the soup in the receptacle. Black bean chicken is one of my favorites, so I was still holding out hope....but it quickly faded. Most often this dish has a nice thick sauce over the chicken with whole black beans in the sauce, but not from this place. It was watery and the chicken was nearly white...no beans to be seen. I'm an optomist by nature and I really like pork fried rice. I didn't think it was possible to mess this up, but theirs is flavorless. Instead of the usual nice chunks of pork, these had small bits of pork. My Diet Pepsi was fine. I'm sorry guys, I won't order from here again.

    The reviews made me really exciting to try this place. What a disappointment. Egg rolls were bland, hot and sour soup was bland, general tso was soggy and bland, the peppered steak was awful and could hardly be called steak, and the crab rangoons were okay. The Singapore rice noodle was the only thing I really enjoyed but even that had minimal meat. Another 30 dollars spent on food that was not worth it. I could have made myself a nice steak dinner that was a hundred times better for the same price.

    My favorite Chinese takeout in Albany . They have great crab rangoons, the staff is really nice and friendly, and the dishes are pretty good... I really like that they include a wonderful array of mixed vegetables with the protein of your choice. Even the fried rice has a nice smokey wok flavor to it.

    I have been coming here for years and its a decent place to get chinese food. Its only OKAY though. Not bad, not great, decent price. Its good for a late night snack or if your in a big pinch for dinner, but not an exclusive place to get something to eat.

    This was good take-out Chinese food. I had Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables and was pleased that the shrimp were large and cooked to perfection! I expected tiny shrimp for the price - why I ordered it with that expectation I don't know. My daughter's Beef Lo Mein had a lot of beef, and she liked it, but I thought it was a little too heavy on the oil. My husband had the Jalapeño Chicken which was small strips of chicken coated in a light , sweet batter and deep fried. It was served with a sprinkling of fried fresh jalapeños. Spicy and good. One thing I must mention is that it's not a sit-down restaurant, not really. We didn't know that and walked there from our hotel (also not recommended - no sidewalks). It had two tables but zero ambiance and it was HOT inside. But still ok because it's not like they advertised that they were this beautiful place and then it was a dump.

    Thank you, Yelp, for helping me find Dragon City. The best take-out Chinese I've had. Great service too!

    From outside, this place looks pretty bad. However, I have tried several different Chinese take-outs, this is one of the best in terms of taste and portion. Update 1/16/2015 The food does not taste as good some how.

    Well, it felt like -4° outside, so I did not want to go out to eat lunch today, and My co-workers and I decided Dragon City delivery. I had house special sliced chicken with pork fried rice lunch special, and it was better than I expected. I don't like typical Chinese-American yellow fried rice, but their fried rice was not yellow, stir-fry chicken with mixed vegetables was not too oily, the source was fine as Shining Rainbow in Albany and Ala Shanghai in Latham. I also like their house special rice noodle too.

    I am very picky with my chinese food. I live in Albany and either travel to East Greenbush for it or to Schenectady. But I just moved down the st. From here and decided to give it a try.i am happy to say they were fast and the price was good. Plus the food was rather good also. No more traveling for me! Definitely order from there you won't be disappointed.

    Good prices good Chinese food free delivery with reasonably sized orders and they always came to my house in a timely fashion. The food is cooked just the way I like it , generous servings of meat with great sauce and spices. They are one of the only two Chinese restaurants I will order from in the capital region

    The food is good and typical Chinese takeout joint. Came here with my boyfriend when he was showing me around Albany. I had the beef and broccoli lunch special with pork fried rice and wonton egg drop soup and it was yummy. All in all good restaurant, I would return for some quick Chinese food next time I'm in Albany.

    Extra Spicy General Tso- likely a popular item so probably batch made- was soggy, and was definitely not spicy at all. Hot and sour soup- OK crispy noodles freshly fried was good Beef lo mein- big pieces of beef, what you should come to expect from take-out, very enjoyable and packed to the brim. Definitely did the trick after a long day snowboarding and will likely serve me well for a hangover which may or may not be in store in the near future.

    I would normally give four stars because I really just thought this was a typical Chinese take-out place. BUT one day they forgot to deliver fried rice with an order, and when I called they literally showed up at my door five minutes later with the freshest, most delicious rice I have ever tasted in my life. They are now forever my go-to order-out Chinese restaurant. Go Dragon City!!!!
