Geauld Tigers is the best, but they charge a good bit for a massive amount of food with no mixing of dishes and no substitutions.

Nine Dragon is pretty good for a lunch combo and probably the best deal.

I got 9 dragon the other day, and it was terrible. They started a buffet style lunch, and it was all cold when it was served. I brought it home and had to reheat it immediately. Not what it used to be that's for sure.

I've had it twice since moving back near campus. The lunch is still decent and a good value. They keep messing up my order when I get it for dinner though. The General Tso tasted like it had a bunch of sweet and sour instead of spicy and the time before that they gave me coconut chicken instead of amazing chicken.

I'm tempted to make the drive out to China Express on Coursey from now on.

9 Dragon Noodle House on Highland - my favorite Chinese in the city. Not the original Nine Dragon, which has gone downhill.

I don't get why you're being downvoted. Chinese Kitchen on Brightside are the same people that used to be at 9 Dragon on Burbank when it was the bomb.

Everyone is saying "used to be 9 Dragon" well that's because they left and opened up Chinese Kitchen. Best General Tso around.

Yes, one is Nine Dragon and the other is 9 Dragon. Nine is the one by Mellow. 9 is the one by Walmart, which has the interesting menu.

You thinking of red flower? If so then nah, it closed a few years ago.

Coconut chicken at Nine Dragon (next to mellow mushroom) is my go-to!
