Thank you for remembering the name of the place on Route 3 - Jade Island!
The Dragon Villa is a blast from the past! I worked there in 1980 as a busboy. The owners at that time were an airline pilot and his stewardess wife. Very nice couple, but not super experienced in the restaurant business. I did not know that the Kings owned Dragon Villa beforehand.
