Crema's Take
“Fat Dragon is primarily a Chinese restaurant with a strong reputation for handmade noodles and dim sum, but the coffee program is inconsistent—reviewers consistently praise the brown sugar milk tea while noting that most other offerings fall flat, and the 3.9 rating reflects a wider problem with uneven execution across the menu. If you're coming for specialty coffee, this isn't your place; if you're in Silverlake craving authentic Chinese food and want to grab a milk tea while you're there, it might be worth a shot.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

Some of the best actual Chinese food I’ve had in LA. The absolute best in silverlake. Really well done
Came here Saturday and did take out. The brown sugar milk tea was the best I’ve ever had, but that was it. Everything else I had was not good at all. I spent $90 on food and even left a tip without even trying the food. This was my first time here and it would’ve been my last…
Fat Dragon is fantastic!!! Great food. Wonderful, friendly service. They always accommodate my special requests. I rarely, if ever, order Chinese food elsewhere. Thank you team at Fat Dragon!!!
Bad, bland, and kinda gross. Fried rice was lazy and boring, lacking good ingredients. Pork dumplings do NOT taste real and pretty disgusting. Green beans were decent. But what’s the point of eating out if I can cook better than this?
