Small Dragon, once a beloved Chinese takeaway in South London, has faced a notable decline in both service and food quality. Initially praised for its fresh ingredients and friendly staff, recent experiences reveal a troubling shift. Customers have reported rude interactions, missing items, and unappetizing meals, leading to disappointment and loss of patronage. While some still find acceptable fare at reasonable prices, the inconsistency has prompted many to seek alternatives. With the absence of the original owners and complaints piling up, diners are increasingly steering clear of this establishment in search of better options in the neighborhood.

This is our go-to Chinese takeout spot in the neighborhood. The service is always excellent, fast, and friendly, with prices that won't break the bank. Highly recommended. View all feedback.

What tsleight dislikes about Small Dragon:
Very average take away. Not very friendly . When opened food it's was greasy , and sweet n sour chicken balls were doughy and seemed undercooked I'm still in quest to find a Chinese locally that serves delicious food View all feedback.

I had a terrible meal delivered tonight. I am extremely disappointed and will be closely examining this takeout service and providing a report. Please be cautious for now. I will provide more details about the specific dishes once we place an order.

After ordering from this Chinese restaurant, I encountered a very rude lady on the phone for the first time ever. A portion of our order was missing, and she accused us of lying and refused to serve us any further. Her behavior made me feel small and insignificant, especially considering we were paying for a service. The way she spoke to us was appalling. I would suggest avoiding this place if you are looking for good service.
