Description

In a town in desperate need of an Asian influx, Super Dragon comes through like a Chinese superhero, delivering affordable, high-quality Chinese cuisine in a neighborhood setting. Cantonese, Szechwan, and a smattering of other Chinese cooking styles are represented. Duck is one of the specialties, whether braised with veggies or served Peking-style with crepes and plum sauce. Yeah, there's kung pao chicken, as well as clucker à la General Tso. But the menu offers plenty of rarer items, like X.O. string beans, Peking-style pork chops, and cold jellyfish in sesame sauce. Our advice: Put Super Dragon into heavy rotation for regular, belly-pleasing visits.







  • 2007 | BEST CHINESE RESTAURANT

    Who cares if Phoenix doesn't have a real Chinatown Even though we might have to drive a little further to find it, we still have killer Hong Kong-style food at Super Dragon, an institution whose reputation goes well beyond its north Phoenix address.Unlike the typical Chinatown dive, the atmosphere here is soothing and immaculately clean, but the flavors are just as authentic (minus the MSG) -- heaps of pan-fried chow fun noodles with a vaguely smoky fragrance, rich Cantonese roasted...

  • 2005 | BEST CANTONESE-STYLE DUCK

    Super Dragon is probably the most consistent neighborhood Chinese eatery in the Valley, serving up mainly Cantonese-style fare in a clean, pleasant environment with superior service. Standards such as cashew chicken and walnut prawns never disappoint, but our faves on Super Dragon's menu are the Cantonese roasted duck, and the braised duck with mixed veggies. In both cases, the duck is flavorful and juicy, a feast for the senses that only Daffy and Donald would have trouble noshing. Whenever... More »

    Super Dragon, I know, sounds like one of those fantastic drawings Jon Heder does while portraying ultra-nerd Napoleon Dynamite in the flick of the same name. You know, like Napoleon's "liger," a cross between a male lion and a female tiger that, a... More »

    Affectionately called 'the Golden Woohoo' around our house, Super Dragon is a solid neighborhood Chinese joint, with all the classic decor and fare that comes with such places. It's our regular haunt on Christmas day (Jewish family, you know how it goes) and their walnut prawns, crab rangoon, and beef fried rice grace our take-out table a couple times a month. Good food at a good price - if they delivered, they'd get another star!
