Based on the four and five star reviews we took a 50 mile drive to Avondale to experience the Red Dragon. We found it to be very clean with a relatively pleasant decor and a polite staff.
After a liberal two-plate sampling of as much stuff as I could cram onto two plates, I have to give this place the three star "average" rating. After all, it is a buffet and most of the entrees could have come from many of the buffets in the valley; there was nothing outstanding here. I am beginning to suspect that the vast majority of Chinese buffets get their food from the same central supplier... this is only a suspicion... I have no empirical proof, but everything at the Red Dragon looked and tasted like the food I have eaten at numerous Chinese buffets -- from coast to coast. I don't mean to sound disparaging,The Red Dragon was the equal of most of the Oriental buffets I have experienced; no better - no worse. I would probably eat there again if I were close to Avondale but after experiencing I-10 and Avondale town traffic I doubt I will be in the area in the near future. On the plus side, the prices were very reasonable. If you're pretty hungry and you need to fill a void, this place will work.
