Lucky Cafe Chinese Restaurant - Ax - Chinese Near Me - Jackson, Michigan

See all

Very rude staff when ordering; the lady had no patience whatsoever. Avoid this place.

I can't rate this any Lower. My family came in town we tried this restaurant because the Buffett would not let us order quarts and things they wanted the by pound . My family got a hundred and thirty six dollars of fried rice lomein noodle dumplings ragoons. It was horrible food we live in Albion so drive special to Jackson for food. When I called to see what to do, they said bring back we will make new. Why would I drive to Jackson and have horrible food remade. They stated that fried rice doesn't have egg in it when I stated there was no egg in fried rice . The rumblings were not cooked. No flavor nothing. I didn't ask for my money back I told them I get you need to make money but I need some satisfaction for the money I spend . Nothing Do not go there read more

Really enjoyed my visit to this Chinese restaurant! I ordered the General Tso's chicken and it did not disappoint -- crispy, tender, and coated in a perfectly balanced sweet and spicy sauce. The portion was generous, and it came out hot and fresh. Service was great -- friendly, fast, and attentive without being overbearing. The dining area was clean, and had a nice vibe. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the rice was a little on the dry side, but everything else more than made up for it. Definitely coming back to try more dishes soon! read more

Lucky Cafe Chinese Restaurant - Asian salsa (sweet and sour) and chips - Chinese Near Me - Jackson, Michigan

I mean, it certainly was food and it will definitely keep me alive until my next meal. It wasn't BAD, but it wasn't good, and I have no intentions of returning. The sesame chicken was bland, the general tso's was even blander, and even the crab rangoon was "meh" at best. The sweet and sour sauce was good, and the fried rice was ok, but that's all I've got. Make the drive and go to China Chef in Vandercook instead. You won't regret it!! read more

Very disappointing we've been looking for a new Chinese restaurant here in Jackson for a while as we have tried just about all of them except for the Lucky cafe. We gave it a try today. It was horrible food! We tried a wide variety of entrees, and every single dish was bad, absolutely flavorless, the sauces in every dish were all the same, bland and and tasteless, was sad I really had high hopes for this place we are never ever going back! Back to my endless search for a decent Chinese restaurant that won't break the bank here in Jackson read more

I used to come here and eat as a kid with my mom way back in 92' over the years as I have come back to visit I usually would come in to order as the food was always good. Today was a very sad day, as I encountered the worst server I have ever had, at any restaurant. She was rude, insulting and you couldn't even understand her English at all. When I tried to explain that I could not understand her, she just got more and more rude. Like, if you don't like people, then don't work with people. Then one of our orders was wrong, and she set the recipt so that her tip was already included, when I know they don't do that there. She also, was extremely rude and judgy while I was trying to eat my food. I will be never be going back there. Super sad for me. read more

Bland AF. Can't get your order eight, and then when told about the mistake, wants to argue. This.place can't go out of business fast enough.

The food is good, stays hot. Mostly do take out. The individuals that work there need to be a bit more friendly. Same as calling in your order. read more

I am in Jackson for work and was craving sesame chicken. This place hit the spot! And the egg roll was so crispy and flaky. Yum!

The quality of food sure has gone down. Used to be my favorite place to go when craving chinese food. Now the food is never prepared good. It either has a spoiled taste or not cooked correctly. The rice was good, the rest of the meal terrible. read more

A CHICKEN TOE WAS IN MY FOOD!!! See the photo below: http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh216/chsaylors/Mobile%20Uploads/received_1030432053636238_zpsphbkqdin.jpeg Need I say more? My family and I ordered General Tso's, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Egg Rolls, and Crab Rangoons. I was halfway through my plate of dinner when I nearly choked to death! To my surprise it was a CHICKEN TOE BONE with toenail still intact (see photo). Thankfully I was the one to come across it rather than my 4 or 6 year old daughters! They would've for sure choked to death! I brought the remainder of the food back alond with the toe for a refund and the lady was very rude and only refunded my $13 when I paid $23.86! She said because we ate the egg rolls and crab rangoons! I told her good customer service would be to issue a FULL refund, she got a nasty attitude and refused. I said that's okay I'll just be sure to tell everyone about your restaurant. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!! read more

Lucky Cafe Chinese Restaurant - CHICKEN TOE BONE FROM THE LUCKY CAFE IN JACKSON, MI - Chinese Near Me - Jackson, Michigan

Food was extremely bland, it felt like a lazy version of Chinese. The Orange Chicken was acidic, there was next to no meat in the Hunan mix, the fried rice was bland, and the crab rangoons weren't fried long enough so they were soft and chewy instead of crispy. Definitely one of the worst meals I've had in my life. read more

It's okay and I would eat here again if I'm hungry. I usually get the General tso chicken

Small portions and odd taste. I have eaten in China Towns on both coasts and have friends that live in China and cook for me occasionally when back in the States. First time last time read more

Ordered from here through DoorDash and it was awful packaging. Pretty sure there was more soup in the bag than in my actual container. The spilled soup made the bags and everything inside them like our spring rolls and crispy noodles soggy. Both containers of food soggy and a mess to just get out of the bag. read more

I absolutely love Their food always so polite and when I call to order they know who I am And what I like. You always get a lot of food for the price. The fried chicken wings are the best anywhere in Jackson. can't say enough good about them read more

First time there was a large amount of food for not a lot of money. My husband was able to get dinner and lunch and I had dinner, lunch and lunch or of my meal. read more

I would like to give them a good rating because the food was good but the problem that I had was actually getting my food. We ordered two meals but only received one. When we called to patiently reorder the missing meal we were told that it would take another 45 minutes. We waited past that time and called again. This time we were told that it was on the way. Again we waited nearly an hour and called again. It was at this juncture that I became upset and cancelled the order. My b.f wanted pepper steak though so I drove there and asked for a discount which was only 20 percent and only after much haggling. It's for the lack of good business sense that I give Lucky Cafe a big thumbs down. read more

The eggroll was great, but that's it. Chicken was soggy, rice was no good.

They give plenty of food!!! For cheap too!! Somtimes the food is a little cold tho... its a great place, people are very very nice!

I've always enjoyed my meals here. It's a cooked to order Chinese spot, no buffet. The traditional dishes are good and the place is always very clean which cannot be said for all Chinese restaurants. Their sweet and sour chicken and crab ragoons are excellent. You can definitely tell it's cooked to order as there seems to be less thickness in the sauces and more seasonings used. Waitresses have all been friendly as well. I have no complaints. read more

Good quality Chinese. Nothing special, but a-ok in my book. Large portions and cheap prices is something to love!

Wow, this was bad. The food was not just bland and tasteless, but horrible tasting. And it took forever for it to come out. They only had one waitress who was having a hard time covering the tables, 2/3 of which were empty. It also didn't feel like the cleanest place you've been to. Finally, it wasn't cheap. Yucky all around. read more

I love the Singapore Noodles- very good food at a very reasonable price. read more

Lucky Cafe Chinese Restaurant - Cashew shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Jackson, Michigan

decent Chinese food. nothing out of this world but very consistent. I recommend the mogolian beef.

Worst customer service. Have received the wrong order the past 4 times I have called. So last night I called to try and have them send right order and the lady who answered was so rude and basically told me I'm wrong and she didn't care to help me. Never have had such rudeness from a restaurant. My advice go somewhere else. read more

Worst Chineese I've had in awhile, I Ordered take-out last night and had the Almond Chicken. The chicken was good but the sauce should be a basic gravy but it tasted like a mix of gravy and sweet-n-sour. I order this all time and have never had this gross combonation to pour over the chicken. I also ordered crab ragoons, they were ok but they are usualy accompanied with a sweet duck or plum sauce, I received nether so I was forced to try and eat them plain. Lastly the egg roll tasted old and very dry. Not again I'll stick to China City, China King and Yen King are your best bet for consistant quality. read more

I was very impressed. very nice and clean. friendly and on the ball waitress. I ordered the chow Mei Fun, and it was excellent. Very nice portion size. they didnt skimp on veggies and meat. Luckys is now on my fav list. read more

Went with a group. Seemed to take a long time to get our food. My almond chicken was only lukewarm. The egg drop soup was hot, though, and very delicious. Staff are wonderful and the place is very clean. No way could I eat my order in one sitting. Took most of the almond chicken home and made two more meals out of it. Heated up in the microwave it was much better than at the restaurant. read more

My sister and I have eaten in at this place of business, we have ordered delivery before, tonight when I called for delivery I was told they do not deliver, their website says delivery with in 4 miles, we are 3.4 miles, they have lost our business. read more

Took my mom here for a late lunch and as always the food and service were excellent. This is hands down one of the cleanest resturants I have ever eaten in. Thats why I keep coming back. Funny..My mom liked the food but could not stop commenting on how clean and nice the place was. I would recommend this place to anyone. Try the dumplings. Steamed or fried they are amazing. read more

Yah, I ordered a beef dish and there were 4 THIN STRIPS of beef in it. Mostley veggies. Not acceptable. They are really going down hill. DO NOT take chances and waste your money. read more

Disgusting! Doesn't even deserve 1 star! Ordered Almond Boneless Chicken. Did not receive any gravy. It came with some kind of disgustingly sweet sauce. Rice was very dry. Also, order Orange chicken. The pieces of orange were so gross they looked to be weeks old. The chicken was chewy and had an awful taste. Will never order from this place again. If you are thinking about ordering, DO NOT DO IT!!! GAG!!! read more

Don't eat here! We ordered take out and found a piece of wire in our food. My husband choked on it! Called the restaurant and all the lady said was--"It's because we use a wire brush to clean our pots." No apology. Will never give them our business again. read more

I go here for the chicken fried rice, chicken teriyaki, and sweet and sour chicken. All are fantastic. I've sure you will find something on the menu you will like. They also have some american food on the menu. My buddy always gets a hambuger, and egg drop soup, and he really likes both. A great place to eat, good service, fair prices. read more

This is the worst Chinese take out food I had so far, the chicken in the fried rice were dry, look like they were from some left over chicken.
