Honestly, the British food scene is a big disappointment, but I must say that this establishment is a true gem. It has a friendly staff, and their menu selection is varied and well thought out. My favorite dish is their Singapore Fried Rice, but I've enjoyed each dish I've had there. My only complaint is that this is a take away establishment, and not dine in.

I picked the wrong decade to go on a diet... Since falling in love with Chinese cuisine some 24…read moreyears ago, this is the best restaurant I've found - and I've had some amazing meals in the past 24 years. The restaurant is small (but not cramped), the decor is basic (almost non-existent) and there's the obligatory Chinese music in the background... but you won't notice any of that because the food looks and tastes so good that it steals the show. The generous portion sizes (one serving can easily feed 2 people) are only surpassed by the genius quality and taste of the food. Stand out dishes tonight were the Buddha Parcels on the starter menu, and the Kung Po Chicken & Special Malaysian Satay for the mains. Looking at what other people were eating, and how quiet they were whilst eating it, I'm guessing that pretty much everything on the menu is worth writing about. I'll be testing that assertion over the next 8 months or so as I work my way through the menu! Meals cost about £25 per head including drinks, assuming you are too full after the main course to consider a dessert. I was so full I vowed never to eat again as I left clutching a doggie bag containing what remained of the main course to eat later for supper. As well as the small dining room downstairs (seats about 12), there's also a larger room upstairs - I've not been in it yet, but judging by the size of the party that came in I'm guessing it can hold about 20 upstairs. Staff are friendly, attentive and responsive to your needs - you're not left waiting around wondering where your drink is, etc. Freshly cooked food arrives at your table quickly but calmly, but I saw a note on the menu stating that Dim Sum dishes take a bit longer to prepare. If you know someone who says they don't like Chinese food, this is the place to re-educate them!

Do NOT go here,…read more Manager is awful to his staff. I kid you not, yesterday I was having an average meal with my wife. Staff were working behind bar, this manager drops a plate of food, yells AT the staff behind the bar picks it back up and (hopefully I'm not sure if he did or didn't serve it) goes upstairs. Disgusting, all the staff were brilliant, except this abusive manager that treats his staff like dirt.

I have never eaten out on Christmas Eve before and after this experience I don't think I ever will…read moreagain. Such a shame as the food is really good but they seem more interested in money at all costs. On booking I was told that I needed to pay a deposit of £10 per person which I was fine with as it must be a busy night. They said I would need to pay this before Christmas Eve or my table would not be guaranteed. They rang me a few days before to check and I went down and paid the deposit. On arrival our table was downstairs even though I was told when I booked it would be upstairs. I queried this with a male waiter who confirmed we had the table downstairs. We then spent the whole of the THREE HOUR meal with people queuing for their takeaways right round our table. And some of them were waiting a considerable time. For having to pay for an inflated priced set menu anyway this didn't feel like the nice dining experience you'd expect. The food took ages as they had obviously kept taking takeaway orders and were not prioritizing the restaurant diners. My son and husband ended up having to leave as it had gotten so late which was disappointing. There were no apologies for the delay at all at any point. Just kept on asking if we wanted more drinks. The drinks are expensive too. They presented the bill without the deposit taken off. Then I was asked to sign a receipt and the order book when I asked for it to be taken off. I said that the service had been really slow and the waitress just laughed. Not a care that we were disappointed. I got home and showed the receipt to my husband who immediately said that I'd been overcharged. I couldn't even face going back at this point so he went back only to be told that they had been trying to call me. Completely untrue as I had no missed calls on my mobile and they had the right number as they had called me earlier in the week. They gave him the £42 cash. Just try to use one of the £1 coins to be told it was a Euro. Just embarrassing and at this point not even surprised. I suppose when you are the only restaurant in a small village and have the monopoly it doesn't matter when people aren't happy. Food is really nice but check what you are being charged.

There is not many good Chinese places around with a high food safety rating. Lucky Star has 4 stars…read moreout of 5 which makes it a safe place to eat. Majority of places you will find on Just-Eat are rated 3 stars by Wigan council. I would never touch any food from a place that is rated below 4; Very glad we found Lucky Star where we can eat with confidence. The food is lovely. I love the vast selection of not only Chinese but also Thai. The Thai chicken roll is great, so are the curries and dumpling. We are mostly happy with everything. The only thing I would improve is the Won Ton soup. I love how it has a lot of vegetable in it like cabbage, carrot etc, however I would add spring onion and improve the flavour and consistency a bit. Its still a good soup and the dumplings are some of the best I had from a takeaway in a long time but the broth needs a bit improvement. Lucy Star is a great place to eat with safe and tasty food that is always consistent.
