    Run down take out with typical Chinese American dishes as well as some authentic Taiwanese dishes. As a Chinese American I must say that the Taiwanese dishes are indeed authentic and very tasty. I was also nicely surprised by the pork belly gua bao, which is a generous slice of marinated pork belly and veggies and special sauce on a little steamed bun. We're keeping the menu for the next time we're in town.

    Got dinner with our friends here so we could enjoy it at the park. All the options on the menu looked delicious and there is even candy to enjoy while you skim through. I got the salt and pepper popcorn chicken with taro bubble tea. My fiancé got the fried chicken cutlet over rice plate and our friends tried the omurice and a hot&sour noodle soup. For dessert, we tried the tea and tofu dessert (not sure if it's for me, but I enjoyed the plain tofu pudding and bubbles with syrup over the one with ginger). The service was fast to take our order and since it is made fresh, we have to wait about 20 minutes. It's a casual, fast spot perfect for a quick meal and would definitely go more if I lived in the area.

    Lucky Corner reigns supreme and no other place in the same category even comes close in the Capital Region. What do we love about it? First and foremost, consistency. In the almost five years we've been coming here, the food here has been incredibly consistent, which means they have the best, most delicious braised mixed pork. No other place, including ones in North Carolina, DC, Georgia, and elsewhere in NYS, has matched the juicy minced pork, refreshingly sweet and savory greens, and the tender marinated soft boiled egg. The owner has always been quick and efficient yet friendly and courteous, and... did I mention he makes an amazing cream of corn soup as well? Other food highlights at Lucky Corner include the curry chicken with rice and gua bao. Prices have gradually crept up over time just like at other foods joints, and Lucky Corner still offers impressive value. I kinda wish the dining room reopened, but as of early November 2025, it's still not open. Last but not last, Lucky Corner gets extra love from me for being a local business. Long live Lucky Corner.

    Legit Taiwanese place that is currently carry-out only. When you come, do try the items on the "Taiwanese Style" section on the menu - fried roasted pork (as an appetizer or over rice), sautéed cabbage, curry chicken over rice. Several items on the Taiwanese style section reminded me of the corner eatery near my childhood home in Taipei.

    Authentic Taiwanese cuisine, enjoyable experience here. It's never easy to find a proper Taiwanese restaurant that serves the real Taiwanese flavor. It's exactly the hometown taste here in Troy and every dish we ordered was yummy. Definitely a go to pl

    Chicken cutler over rice

    Lucky Corner is right. The citizens of Troy who get this corner Taiwanese comfort food spot in their neighborhood are the lucky ones. On my first visit, I got a giant bowl full of soup, and that was all fine and good. But on my second trip, the fried chicken cutlet over rice had risen the ranks of Yelp as the dish to get. Even though it was definitely soup weather, I had to try the local favorite. But it wasn't easy, since there were so many other Taiwanese specialties I wanted to try. Man, that chicken cutlet plate was delicious. That said, I might not get it again. it's just a ton of food. And for about half the price, you can get a bowl of the minced pork over rice, which is pretty much the same thing but without the chicken. Plus, by getting a smaller dish, I might have room for one of the tempting appetizers or the tofu pudding dessert. Tofu pudding is one of my favorites, and it's been a long time since I've had it. I am curious to taste how this Troy version stacks up with those I've enjoyed in the past.

    My favorite, Taiwanese style fried chicken cutlet over rice.

    The Plum Blossom has been a Troy fixture for decades. Same owner and family since it opened…read more Had lunch here on an early Monday afternoon with my mom. We were given hot tea, water, crunchy noodles and dipping sauces to start. The lunch menu had a variety of choices, including vegan. I ordered a starter of Char Sui. For main entree platters, my mom ordered the pan fried tofu dish while I ordered the cod filet with Thai eggplant. I paid for a different side, thin rice noodles, since I didn't want the rice that came with the platter. Finished our meal with a pistachio layer cake and hand dripped coffee. Everything was enjoyable; well balanced and deliciously seasoned. A wonderful variety of Asian flavors in more traditional dishes. It is ornate, and brought me emotionally back in time. The service is more like the 70s and 80s, before food service became a rush for quick turnover. If you are looking for a spot where you can relax and not feel rushed, enjoy unique interior decor, and flavorful distinctive cuisine come here for lunch!

    Been driving by Plum Blossom for many years on drive from NH to NJ and then NH to Schenectady…read more Certainly eye catching exterior and I was not disappointed when I saw interior. Stopped for lunch and ordered sesame chicken. Tea, water and some snacking noodle with 2 sauces. The wonton soup was excellent with large pillowy wontons. The sesame chicken was right portion and fried chicken pieces were hot and crisp and sauce dark sweet and tangy. Pieces of chicken were not uniform which I liked. Great service, great food and the vibe was what I had always imagined it would be from driving by.
