This is THE best Chinese food I've ever had. My husband and I drive here from oshawa frequently because no where else compares. My husband has been coming here for the last 20 years. The family that runs the restaurant is so sweet and their food is incredible. Best General Tso I've ever had. The chicken stays crispy and the sauce is perfectly sweet with a hint of spice. 10/10 highly recommend!!!

I ordered a C7-Combination Platter. The food I got served was super stale. The General Tso’s chicken was the worst. It was extremely dry and hard; definitely could not be eaten. All of the meat was drenched in sweet and sour sauce which had a powerful taste of sugar. The food is absolutely horrible. It saddens me that I wasted my hard earned money on it. Worst tasting food I’ve come across in a very long time. 80% of it ended up in my compost bin. Need I say more? 🤔

We ordered what was supposed to be chicken fried rice, but it was so bland, I forgot what I was eating. I also had a very hard time trying to find any morsel of chicken to vainly attempt to get any sustenance in this dish. The breaded chicken dish had more bread than chicken. I was very dissatisfied. The red sauce was watered down more than water itself. It had no flavour. The spring rolls and vegetable rolls were full of garlic flavour that over powered anything else in it. Same with the noodle dish. All I tasted was garlic. This was my first and last time going here. What a shame.

We ordered delivery. We ordered: the larger sized chicken fried rice. It was not only a regular sized amount of rice just spread out in a larger container to appear as if it was more quantity, but it also was bland! We also ordered the chicken balls. They were not chicken balls. They were something entirely different. The sweet and sour sauce was watery. It was clearly low quality of watered down. The chow mein noodles were disgusting. The chicken inside the chow mein was jelly consistency and the spring rolls veggies inside of it didn’t taste cooked. The food was way more expensive than most Chinese food places too. Yuck!

Ordered a dinner combo and a hot and sour soup. The combo had an egg roll, general tso chicken, sweet and sour chicken and chicken fried rice. 17 bucks for the combo 6 bucks for the soup. Portions were good ( did not finish the chicken or rice), soup was good overall food was fresh and hot. Wait time was under 10 minutes. Worth the price imo. It's westernized Chinese food which has alot of sugary sauces so diabetics beware lol. Place was clean and bright. Would go back again.

We ordered take out for my dad’s birthday for dinner and everything was super fresh and tasty. Everyone was talking about how good the Asian food from dragons gem is. Thank you for the great quality and experience. Staff was super friendly as well.

I’ve been eating at this place since I was in high school- I remember coming here back when I was in grade 10 which was now 17 years ago! Back then I would order the General Taos Chicken with friend rice. After all these years of developing your pallet and trying new things, the General Taos is still one of the best I’ve ever had! This place is now a staple in Pickering among other things like the nuclear power plant and petticoat creek. When you hear of Pickering, Dragon Gem has to be in your top 5 landmark thoughts. This place easily gets a 5 out of 5 for me.
