Skip the buffet. Go across the street. For same price, you'll get better eats. The Lucky Dragon serves real Chinese Mustard, and they have real fried rice with veggies and egg. They also know how to do Mongolian Beef right. Definitely the best Mongolian Beef on the West Side of Atlanta. They also have great service and a beautiful dining area. read more

The food is generous portions and tasty. Prices are very reasonable, too. Probably the fastest non-fast food place in the area if you get takeout. Huge menu that covers several different Asian styles, so you can get something for anyone. It looks a bit seedy on the outside, but the staff are nice and it's a solid spot. read more

So good! We rode by this place and decided give it a try! its very good. Authentic! I had to Mongolia stir fry

Haven't been here in forever... like more than 8 years... and I got to say, it was excellent. I had my lo mein and it was like home comfort food. I also had the mango smoothie, it didn't taste like a real fruit mango though, but rather a powder mango version. Other than that I tried the calamari, it was crispy and fried. And no one can't mess up the egg drop soup (: It was getting close to closing hours too. I'm glad our servers were able to work with helping us and making sure we got everything we needed. The place was decorated and it was a vibe there. Probably one of the great Chinese restaurants in the area too. read more

I haven't been here in years but saw several positive Nextdoor recommendations & folks encouraging people to stop in now that the doors have reopened. (They were closed after major damage to their front entrance last year.) I called to see if they still offered 'in-house' delivery (versus Grubhub, DoorDash or UberEats). Cashier said Yes, based on delivery address. Over 4 miles = $40 minimum, less than = $20 minimum order. I told her I was about 2.5 miles away. Once I recited my address, she told me I was 4.7 miles away. I asked, politely, if she could confirm address. She giggled & said, 'Hold let me check again.' and then she said, 'Oh. Ok. It's 2.7 miles. Minimum $20.' Interior / Exterior Used delivery at first. When I did go inside (later) only made it to the counter. Parking lot entrance is a little steep. Smallish, but I don't think it gets crowded - primarily carryout. Unsure about cleanliness. Food We ordered: Thai Pineapple Fried Rice Stir fried with chicken, shrimp, basil, onions, peas, carrots, pineapple & eggs Asked if they could omit shrimp and add cashews. They said they could omit the shrimp and add more chicken. But they could not add cashews during the stir fry, they could only sprinkle uncooked cashews on top, so I declined the cashews. We asked that they make it spicy. Princess (Lunch) Battered and sauteed szechuan style with peas, carrots & mushrooms I asked if they could put the sauce on the side & the cashier said 'it comes that way.' Chicken 'nuggets' kids meal Tempura battered chicken tenders with regular french fries. We had to ask about kids meals. They are not listed on the paper menu or website, but it's fried shrimp OR chicken with a side of fries or fried rice. The chicken kids meal is $5.99 - can't remember cost of shrimp version. We asked if the fries were 'regular' & the cashier said, 'yes, regular fries.' The Thai Pineapple Fried Rice was not spicy at all. It was very oily though. You could actually see oil pooling in the bottom of the styrofoam container. There was also VERY little chicken. If this was double chicken I would hate to see what the regular portion of chicken looked like. There was also very little pineapple. We divided this and organically ate several bites before realizing that we'd run out of chicken. See second pic to see how much rice was left after running out of chicken. The Princess Lunch was disappointing. The peas, carrots & mushrooms I expected to be scattered among my chicken were missing entirely. I don't typically eat eggrolls (spring roll girl here) but I tried it since I was still hungry. It was tough & chewy. I called the restaurant because I thought they sent the wrong order & cashier said she thought I didn't want the vegetables because I said szechuan sauce. I explained that I got that from THEIR menu description & when I said I wanted the szechuan sauce on the side, I still wanted my veggies. I explained to her that the veggies were missing entirely. She said she was new & put the owner on the phone. I explained the situation. The owner told me to bring the food back and she would remake it. I told her I'd bring it back the next day. The Chicken nuggets kids meal was a strange portion. Too much for a toddler, but not enough for 7 or 8 year old. The fries are not 'regular.' They are the seasoned, battered fries - so the kid wouldn't eat them. This is why we asked if the fries were regular to begin with. Value / Price The lunch specials seem to be a good value. Customer Service The driver called from the driveway instead of ringing the doorbell which I found odd. I was sitting downstairs by door awaiting their arrival / phone was upstairs charging. When I called to notify them of the error, the cashier nor manager bothered to offer a simple apology. When I went to pickup the do-over meal, I was not offered an apology nor a complimentary beverage or eggroll, etc for the inconvenience of driving up there. I would have declined since I stopped drinking tea / don't eat eggrolls (lol) but the offer would have been nice. The new meal had the veggies in the sauce & the owner said it comes this way unless you dine in, because previous customers complained that it got soggy when they don't serve sauce separately (for delivery). I explained that I understood that - but it was missing the veggies before. Ultimately, the amount of vegetables in the sauce was so minimal, it was a waste of time (one tiny sliver of mushroom and very little else). Another misstep - when I had them omit the shrimp from the Thai Fried Rice, I told them I was allergic to shrimp. When I ordered the Princess Lunch they didn't mention that there were shrimp in the eggrolls. I get that they may not have realized that we were splitting both entrees but historically, when I mention a shellfish allergy, order-takers tend to go out of their way to warn me about any shellfish throughout the order or being packaged with the other meals. read more

Actual rating is 3 1/2 stars. We read quite a few reviews in advance and I'm convinced that a lot of people just haven't had good Chinese food before. The restaurant is small and primarily for takeout (bare bones). There are some booths but it's tight in there and they didn't have the heat on. They stay busy. A lot of people come from far away and I'm still not sure why. It tastes like typical mall food court. I ordered General Tso's chicken. The portion size was good. The flavor was fine, but we waited 15 minutes for what was to be fresh food. We got home a few minutes later and the sauce had almost gelled to a jelly type consistency. My husband had Hunan beef which he said was fine but not the best he'd ever had. The spring rolls were very crispy and very tasty. The shrimp egg rolls were good but the shrimp were almost nonexistent. If we're over that way and desperate for Chinese, I might buy again but it's not a place on our "must revisit" list. The search continues for good Chinese on this side of Cobb. read more

The food was really good and there prices are unmatched. Ambiance was chill, the music was great but would be better with a bigger location. Service was great but slow due having to focus also on the front door and Uber. I think this place would thrive more with a bigger location and more workers. read more

Had my Birthday Dinner here with 8 friends. Food is very good. Atmosphere could be better. We had a large table, but it was directly next to where the employees coats and stuff was thrown, and where a lot of dirty plates were sitting. I believe they do a mostly takeout business as there weren't any other fine in customers. 5 Stars for food and service, but 3 Stars for ambience. read more

Lucky Dragon is always on point. The food is never greasy. We recently discovered the lemon pepper chicken. It is now one of our favorites.

First pass on testing a Chinese restaurant is to try the hot and sour soup and an egg roll. The soup was very different as they put some type of pork that tasted like it was slightly smoked. I liked the consistency and the spice. The egg roll was a big disappointment. It was cooked Cole slaw mix and 2 tiny shrimp. Soggy and not do appealing. Next test is a main dish. Then I decide if it is worth my bimonthly Chinese food mix. read more

I used to work in austell and come here all the time .. then they closed up BUT they closed to remodel !!! I came today and grabbed some lunch specials! Food was on point like always!! And even though I did not eat inside, when I put in my order the inside was looking spacious, clean & real nice! I have to come back to dine inside! Y'all go check them out.. THEY ARE BACK OPEN!! read more

We needed a Chinese food fix and our usual restaurant was closed on Mondays. So, thinking about where to go, Lucky Dragon Came to mind. (My first time there) The order came quickly and very well packed "to go." I got it all home and set up to eat and it all was very good and quite appetizing. The only disappointment was the Wonton soup noodles were mussy. Like they had been in the soup too long! But, that's the only thing I could complain about. Good job Lucky Dragon! JC. read more

First the food here was amazing my grandma said every time I was there the service was amazing the employees were joyful I would definitely recommend the restaurant and they servied my chicken nuggets and French fries in a boat five stars also definitely get the fries. I love the decor and the Chinese music in the restaurant give them a raise. read more

This place deserves a Keith Lee visit! The best customer service in the city. I've been coming here for over 10 years and not once has the customer service not been outstanding. Now I am loyal to my shrimp and brócoli order but I have tasted the pepper steak and the sesame chicken and they did not disappoint. I've been to many places in Atlanta and it's surroundings but I do not place any other spot on top of Lucky Dragon. It never disappoints. read more

My first time moving into this area and I decided one day to come and try it, and it was so delicious and very flavorful would come again

Sooo they had a car crash into the restaurant a while back & just finished with rebuilding. I went & got my trusty ol' General Tso's chicken with fried rice & an egg roll. It was all piping hot & great! I like the new look of the restaurant & you can tell they're back focused on the flavor of their food. Coming back! read more

I live in the area and this restaurant quickly became my favorite for lunch. I was sad to see them closed. I drove by one day and it seemed that someone crashed through their front building. Durning the closer they took the opportunity to remodel and it looks awesome!! Food is just as it was before they closed and my heart is happy. read more

My son & I were doing some shopping in Austell, Ga and decided to dine in for dinner one Friday evening. My first concern was that there was not a soul in sight. We walked in and stood at the front entrance and no one came, so I proceeded to the back of the restaurant and located 2 gentleman talking, and asked were they open. The younger gentleman apologized then seated us near the front of the restaurant. I was a little surprised to see that we were the only ones there which should have been my que to get out of there-lol, but I decided to order a $1.50 domestic beer instead ($1.50 domestic beer on Friday & Saturday). I ended up ordering the Singapore house stir fry, which was prepared without the curry and surprisingly good. My son ordered hot wings and fried rice ( no suprise, the kid is going through a hot wing phase ). The food was really good, but it seemed hard to get the attention of the waiter for refills ( reminder: we were the only ones there ). They had a few take out orders, but no major traffic. I'm giving them only 3 stars and not 4 based on service only... Because the food was excellent and the price was right, our tab was around $25.00 w/o tip. I'm sure we will be dining in again :) read more

Best Chinese food in the area! We always take it to go as dining room/parking lot are tight.

We're new to the area and have tried a few Chinese places before Lucky Dragon and were very disappointed. Lucky Dragon broke the cycle! We orders delivery and it arrived quickly! The Miso & egg drop soup were still hot hot and full of authentic flavor. The apps are where I rly start to judge.. crab Rangoon and pot stickers. Delicious!!! Creamy fresh and crispy Rangoons and FRESH FRESH pot stickers and a delicious sauce! I will definitely order again!! read more

Lucky Dragon Restaurant - the menu for the restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Ever since the change in ownership this Chinese restaurant has gone from worst to first. The food is flavorful and delicious. Of course all Chinese food tastes better in the restaurant but I have to say that this food is almost as good in takeout as within the restaurant. I also like that they offer some Thai dishes as well for when you want something a little different from traditional Chinese fare. Our family favorites are the Honey Cashew Chicken, Orange Chicken, Sweet & Sour Chicken, and Thai Basil Shrimp but I have tried many items on the menu and they are all good. I definitely recommend. read more

Why is Lucky Dragon closed? They have been closed for a few weeks. Is this a permanent or temporary situation?

The food is always fresh and good! I'm not a big fan of the Mongolian beef, it's to many onions and not enough beef and green peppers since I've had better Mongolian beef at the House of Lu, my favorite go to for Chinese food!' read more

It's NOT a swanky joint by any means (On the outside or inside, though I do like the coloration/paint on the interior), but it consistently has a 93 or higher health inspection score and the food is always good. The fact that it offers an entire range of Asian Cuisine from Chinese, to Thai, to Japanese makes me a bit nervous, but since I've only ever ordered Chinese, I can't speak on the other options? On my most recent visit, I actually ordered online and when I got there, I still had to wait 15 minutes, even though I lollygagged plenty before heading to the restaurant, annnnnd the price of my food was listed incorrectly online as well. Overall, good food at a good value, but definitely don't go expecting great customer service and dining perfection.... read more

Rude! I'm knocking this place down all the way to a one star based on my recent experience with Lucky Dragon's wait staff. Yes, it is that serious. My waiter had the nerve, gall, audacity, balls, chutzpah to ask me "Would you like anything else," complete with an attitude after which I guess in his mind was one too many requests for his service. I'm not sure if he knows or not that a waitstaff is just that, someone "whom waits," but clearly he did not get that memo. Then at the end of the meal he asked me if I wanted to take my used chopsticks with me. I said no I would like a new set and he said they ran out. Uhm at a Chinese restaurant you run out of chopsticks?! Really?! *blank stare* Really?! Out of the kindness of my heart I left his nasty ass a $1 and not a piece of my mind. He's lucky I'm trying to do better.... read more

We have been coming here for years. They used to be better but our meal was just ok this time. There's been several changes in ownership. I had the pad thai which is not their strongest dish. (There's a much better Thai place nearby.) Shrimp was not tender and noodles were not very tasty. Coconut Soup was very good though. My family ordered Mongolian beef and sesame chicken. They liken theirs a lot. Very huge eggrolls and super crunchy crab rangoons. Portions were huge and our whole meal was $27. Not bad. Extra star for value. read more

Over the past year the owners have worked hard to make Lucky Dragon stand out amongst the crowd of Chinese restaurants. They've expanded their menu, improved the atmosphere inside, and the appearance outside is the latest beneficiary. And through all this the quality of the food continues to impress. We'll occasionally try other Chinese restauraunts in the area but we always come back to Lucky Dragon. read more

Lucky Dragon Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

This place used to be great. My wife and I came here on our first date and have been coming for years. Unfortunately sometime in the recent past there was a change of ownership, and everything has gone down hill. The service is terrible for the following reasons: I ordered MooShu Beef, and the server didn't know it came with choice of egg drop soup or springs rolls. She didn't bring us water nor did she ask. She brought my MooShu beef out with no crepes to wrap it in, so I had to tell her it came with crepes, so she went into the back and by the time she returned food was cold, and then on top of that they weren't crepes, they were TORTILLAS! My wife ordered the Tom Yum Soup, and it didn't state on the menu that it had mushrooms; my wife is allergic to mushrooms, so she couldn't eat that. My MooShu beef tasted terrible, and the dang tortillas didn't help. The egg drop soup was average. The noodle chips were very greasy and the sweet and sour sauce had a weird taste to it. They no longer serve wine and beer. They also used to have music, now they only have a young kid in there who screams all the time, guess they were relatives of the owner or an employee. So what used to be our favorite Chinese restaurant in the Austell/Marietta area has gone to the wayside. Whoever the new owners are have killed this restaurant. As we drove around the restaurant to exit, we saw the "cook", he looked hispanic. Nothing wrong with that but maybe he should be making Latin food or something, because the Chinese food he's making isn't working. As I'm writing this review my stomach is beginning to bloat, hope we don't get sick. Our visit was today 2/28/16 around 6pm. We WON'T be back. read more

I have ordered from this place a few times. Their regular Chinese food (fried rice, General Tso's chicken, beef w/broccoli, etc) is pretty good. I have no complaints. However DO NOT order the Thai food. It is ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING! I love Thai and eat it pretty regularly. However, I tried their Panang shrimp and it was rubbery and nasty. I also ordered their Pad Thai and it is inedible. It made me hurl and is probably one of most heinous things I have attempted to eat. THEY SHOULD TAKE IT OFF THE MENU! First of all it is pink! The chicken and noodles and everything were pink! The Shrimp was rubbery and the whole thing tasted like a dirty old fishy sock. I literally had to go vomit after the first bite. I would give their Chinese 3.5 stars but their Thai gets 0 stars so I equal it out to 2 stars. read more

I agree with so many other reviewers that this restaurant has gone down the gutter. I've been to this restaurant for 5 years. Don't waste your money on this restaurant. I ordered the: Triple Mongolian which consists of chicken, shrimp, and beef. What I got: one shrimp, lots and of onions and chicken. Also ordered crab Rangoon: what I got was an order of burnt crab rangoons with no filling in them as evidenced by the picture attached. *Please do not come here. I hate to see your dinner get ruined* read more

Lucky Dragon Restaurant - General Tao Chicken - lunch portion ... not good - Chinese Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

I've tried a few different dishes from this restaurant and I've enjoyed my meal each time. Nothing spectacular or extraordinary but good food for a good price. The outside doesn't look all that inviting, but they have a 93 health inspection score, so I feel comfortable. I've only had take out or delivery, so I cannot speak on the "dine in" experience. But if guy want some good quick Chinese food this is your spot. They even have several vegetarian friendly options. read more

All the food is so delicious here but the best part is the service. Our delivery driver knocked so respectfully and wore a face mask AND shield- and every delivery driver we've had from here has been similarly respectful, which is super important since I'm asthmatic myself and don't want to get sick. Everything was packed with care and the Traditional Plates leave enough servings for 2-3 meals if you prefer smaller portions at a time. On top of their great service this place has the most flavorful fried rice I've had since moving to Marietta. My house plans to keep ordering as long as the pandemic continues! read more

I've been to this place serval times. As all, it can be a hit or miss. There is something about this place that Im attracted too. Possible the atmosphere.
