✨What's New in Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
China Dragon Gulf Shores
We first noticed China Dragon while trying their next-door neighbor, Ugly Diner.
We kept seeing tons of people walking in and picking up takeout. It was a non-stop parade of people while we were there.
Our curiosity was peaked, and we knew we had to try China Dragon restaurant.
The Gulf Shores community clearly loved it, so it was time for us to try it. After our first to-go order, we knew that we would be returning over and over again.
Locals and visitors will love the fresh ingredients, delivery service, and China Dragon's convenient location in the heart of Gulf Shores.
