The Dragon Express Restaurant

Came for the Peking duck after a local suggested the place. Unfortunately couldn’t dine in so took two eats away. Decent overall but portions were on the slightly lesser side and the second eat of stirfry duck was lackluster in the usual authentic two eat taste in my opinion. Duck was actually quite tasty how it should be and I liked the thinness of the wraps but it wasn’t standout in expectation. Overall happy to have had a taste of Chinese cuisine with us for our dinner in Kaikoura tonight!

This place was known for a long time for their Peking duck but unfortunately we were left incredibly disappointed tonight at our dinner. Our portions were 1/4 of what is usually expected for a main dish meal given the price you pay no joke, about 14 pieces of sweet and sour pork and the rest was pineapple. The duck was tasty but the pork was incredibly sour. I know businesses are struggling and it’s been a beloved local business for a long time. But with the ridiculous price customers are paying nearly $70 for the duck and $30 for pork, I really hope they increase the portions and quality for their sake as we won’t be back.

We booked at this place because a friend said the peking duck was the best in chch. The duck was very good. The other dishes were good. The service was not friendly "You sit there" in a loud abrupt voice is not very welcoming.

Shared a spicy Sichuan beef and tripe meal, very popular for Peking duck which they slice right in front of you, must try thus next time !!Food: 4/5

Delicious peking duck! Such amazing food and lovely couple working there. We will definitely be returning here!

The Peking Duck and roast duck are the best I have eaten in Christchurch.

Yummy Roast pecking duck, will back again next time. Good price as well.

Extremely poor customer service. Called to place an order, lady on the phone was rude and abrupt. Better places to spend your money.

Wow my first try of pecking duck dish and thanks to my friend who have kindly invited me to this place, it was and eye opening experience!Food: 5/5

Table services is provided upon calling / placing order due to insufficient manpower , roasted ducks and sliced duck are major menu . Not so crowded at dinner / night time .Food: 2/5
