Tasty food with good variety. Great service from staff. It is my go to place for Chinese and sushi.
Ordered late evening while visiting the area. Fresh food. Orange chicken was done just right on the sauces. Hot and spicy beef pretty good nothing chewy. Sweet and sour soup no complains.
I'm happy I finally gave this local restaurant about try. I was surprised that texting in my order was an option. The food was pretty good. Cashier was very nice . Spent $33 for both meals (included spring rolls and choice of soup)
They have the best Chinese take-out around.... But they are incapable of keeping up with demand, currently sitting in their waiting area at 7:30PM to pick up an order that was placed at 6:00PM and was told would take 45 minutes. The food is good- but plan on waiting a long time for it. UPDATE: I left at 7:45, no food in hand
Lucky Star has become our main local Japanese and Chinese dinner option. We've never had an issue calling in our order and picking up at the front desk without a wait. We've had friendly service eating in as well. They have a good variety of options for whatever you're in the mood for - we opt for their chicken a lot, although their beef and shrimp are good too.
Wanted to try a new Chinese food restaurant and this was pretty close to our house. Pickup was easy- they had all the condiments on a table by the door so you can just pick up what you needed. I liked this cause my husband always forgets to get the duck sauce I like. The menu was pretty big. The soup was a little bland , it needed a little more salt or flavor. I got a dinner that had a mix of a little bit of everything: shrimp, lobster, scallops , chicken , pork , beef. I think it was called happy family or something like that. It was pretty good and it was generous with the amount of meat. The only thing that confused me is the menu for some reason is more limited on my phone, I had to use my husbands tablet to see the whole menu. Everything had a clean taste to it- didn't taste overly salty like a lot of places are. The lemon chicken was pretty good but it was that really crispy fried texture. I kind of like the way other places make it beer battered almost like fish and chips and softer. But it was still good.
After watching Squid Game, we were in the mood for some Asian cuisine. Sadly, our go-to Korean place shut down, so we decided to try out Lucky Star with Asian Cuisine in the name. We placed our order and went in to pick up the food. I don't know if diners were allowed to dine in, but the first thing that impressed me was it was clean. Always a good sign and seems like the staff care. We got our food and were off to our house. We took some of you fellow yelper suggestions and got the steamed pork dumplings. They were pretty good. I went with Lemon Chicken, my favorite Americanized Chinese dish, because I like to try it places and haven't had it in a while. It was pretty decent and we used the leftover lemon sauce for some cocktails later. The pork fried rice too was pretty good. Not as greasy as some places and a nice clean taste. When we think of Chinese food in the future, we might not discuss where to go and might just say lets go here.
