Pearl Dragon - Havering

Great meal friendly staff never felt rushed lovely atmosphere. Drinks reasonably priced. Would recommend.

It is now called the Empire Chinese Restaurant. Under new management. This is a recent change so we tried it. Very good indeed. We will go again.

I came to this resturant today and was blown over by the food . It was really really good I had the prawn with cashew nuts and egg fried rice and apple fritters and ice cream for dessert. This restaurant is the best Chinese I have had and I will be going back again very soon

I recently ordered takeout from this restaurant, and it was absolutely disgusting. I decided to leave a review here and on Just Eat, where I placed my order. When we opened the food, it had a strong odor of old oil. The grilled dumplings were thick and rubbery, with a filling that seemed and smelled like poor quality dog food. Everything was greasy and dark in color. The chili squid was dry and rubbery, while the chicken with ginger spring onion had a layer of oil on top and looked unappetizing. The curry sauce was the only decent part, but the chicken in it was rubbery. Even the rice was overcooked. We ended up throwing most of the food away because it was so bad. I had to take out the trash right away because it stank up the house. Overall, it was a complete waste of £50. I highly recommend never eating here.

Wow. This is our favorite Chinese restaurant, even compared to restaurants in London's China Town. Perhaps they have a new chef? The food was all delicious and the service was great, as usual. I recommend asking for the traditional menu and trying something different, such as the salt chili ribs, beef or lamb brisket hotpot, dry beef ho-fun, or spicy pork and aubergine hotpot.
