About this restaurant

Romantic
Innovative
Good for special occasions

In a remarkably short space of time Dragon-i has become one of the most talked about restaurants in not only Glasgow, but in Scotland as a whole. In fact, this astonishing eating establishment has captured the headlines south of the border, having been named one of the top five Chinese UK restaurants in the prestigious Observer food monthly supplement. But Dragon-i is more than a traditional Chinese eatery - considerably more - as the plethora of culinary awards testifies to the creative skills of Raymond and Susan Man whose remarkable vision has turned it into an unforgettable dining experience. Their outstanding passion in creating a superb dining experience and a friendly environment with outstanding personal contact make any visit an evening to remember and treasure.

Really disappointed as I've been many times before and really enjoyed it. Booked lunch for a Birthday Celebration at 1pm on 20/9 and from the moment we sat down it felt rushed. We were pressed to order and plates were banged down on the table every time. After our main course we had dessert menu thrust down straight away and said "not at the moment thank you" which hopefully allowed us a lull prior to having something else. However the waitress then came back almost immediately, tapped her watch several times and said they were closing in ten minutes! Had I known this at any point I'd have booked my table for an earlier time and to be honest I've never felt so rushed in my life!!! Utterly ridiculous.

A couple of years ago I would have given this place 5 stars all the way, especially the signature dish/ingredient of pak choi. We had char siu dishes and salt/chilli chicken plus a side of Pak choi. It was very bland and the same as any other random Chinese. just routine sweet and sour. Pak choi was limp and soggy ( used to be so crunchy) and a very small portion which to be fair was added to when we queried the size although quality was in no way improved. main dishes were served with large amounts of fresh salad leaves?? presumably to make the dish look bigger but cold salad and hot sweet and sour? Decor, furniture and menus are old tired and grubby. such a shame as in my opinion this was once one of the best Asian fusion restaurants in Glasgow this is a classic case of stagnation and a lack of investment. We have eaten here several times over the years but we will not return unless there are major improvements.
