I have lived in that area on and off and the first time I ate from them. Everything was good. I recently tried them this year 2023 and I wasn’t even able to bite into the food as soon as I went into the location it was very dirty inside. I watched the man move, dirty plastic bins through the big, huge deep freezer. Take something out, put it into the microwave that was frozen and if that wasn’t enough, I watched a mouse run across the floor as I was sitting there waiting on the food. Thank God I didn’t pay for it. I just got up and walked away.

I saw a pretty good ratings so I tried it. I don't know if something's going wrong with the business now or what but I was sold literally rotten food. Rotten. Two bites into an egg roll it was terribly rotted. I had to throw it all out. I lost 19$. The man was very friendly. But standing at the counter I could smell rotten seafood smells. I figured I was just near a trash can or something but I found out later the problem was much deeper. The soda cooler was warm. I don't know if it's purely a cost-cutting measure or what exactly the problem is but there's definitely a refrigeration issue. After my experience, I'm convinced that this establishment needs a complete sanitation overhaul not to mention obtaining operational refrigerators, and discarding expired food.I would give more than one star for service because the man was nice, but there's no getting around the fact. When you are serving from a food establishment you just don't hand customers rotten food. You are responsible to be able to tell whether or not you're handing somebody something that can make them deathly ill.

Dirty, smelly place with poor quality greasy food. The pork was close to rancid. Thick gooey sauces. Bland soup. And they hung a menu on the side with all the prices changed and failed to mention it when ordering from the menus on the counter.

Very friendly staff and the food is always good. Conveniently located at the corner of Central avenue and Austin avenue.

What a horror of a Chinese restaurant. New Lucky Garden presented a disappointing experience, as the food portions were notably inadequate. The rice was prepared incorrectly and had a mushy texture. The chicken wings I ordered were improperly breaded and appeared to be drenched in oil.(ordered general so chicken wings) Subsequently, I experienced physical discomfort after consuming the food. The atmosphere of the restaurant was unappealing, with a foul animal odor and poor lighting. The establishment's overall appearance and atmosphere raised concerns about whether it was properly zoned for food preparation. I intend to file a formal complaint with the health department regarding this matter.

I was looking forward to some take out but I think I should have ordered someplace else. I hate leaving a bad review but I did give it two stars which is very generous. Everything taste like onion. The soda was flat. The order was messed up and took quite awhile. All would have been forgiven if only the food didn’t taste so bad. I’m afraid that I will not be ordering here again and honestly that makes me feel bad all the way around. Thing is; how can you mess up fried dumplings. The sauce isn’t very good either. Haven’t gotten to the fried rice or generals chicken yet but I’m Leary at this point. Maybe I just caught a bad night.

Bait and switch with the pricing. They have menus on the counter and let you order but then over charge and point to some hand edited menu on a busted fridge and tell you the prices you ordered from are old prices. This is definitely not ok and will be reported.
