Came here 2 nights in a row for dinner. The first time we ordered from the menu. 2nd night we had one of the preset menus. Food was delicious but service was even better! read more

We ordered a number of dishes from here, and honestly I thought they were hit or miss with most of them - their hand shredded chicken had more bones than meat, and most other restaurants serve it as a boneless dish. The sweet and sour pork didn't look as fresh as we've seen in the photos or from previous visits. read more

Very fresh & delicious Cantonese style dishes to share with friends and families. The only thing I remember is that most of the servers don't speak English - so make sure someone in your group can speak Cantonese or some mandarin at least. The sweat and sour pork/chicken is really good here. Refreshing & not overpowering, unlike many other Chinese restaurant. We should go back again soon. read more

Lucky Pot - Seafood tofu pot - Chinese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

First time ordering from Lucky pot from Ubereats. They had a three dish special, which were spicy eggplant in a mince pork sauce, half a boiled chicken (cold) with ginger scallion oil, and diced beef with mushrooms. I cooked my own rice as the meal did not come with rice, but we did receive two mango sago desserts. The dishes were good, but the boiled chicken was the best. It was soft and tender. The ginger scallion oil can be a bit more saltier. The diced beef was tender, but there were more mushrooms than the beef itself, and the spicy eggplant wasn't spicy at all, but flavour wise was decent. The mango sago was not good. Very goopy is texture and no mango flavour. My children didn't want a second bite after their first initial taste. For the price, it should come with rice. read more

Heard about lucky pot long time. Decided to order take out. Shredded Chicken with scallions oil 5/5, Black pepper beef ribs 4/5, 芹菜炒富貴花 4/5, spicy eggplant pot 5/5, 雲耳勝瓜炒吊片4/5 (a bit oily), sweet and sour pork ( cannot rate, because I told them to separate the source, but they forgot, so the ribs are getting soggy , taste wise is good) The restaurant is quiet busy and the atmosphere is only 3/5 but the service are pretty good and friendly! Price are very reasonable The only not good is parking, very busy and most the spots are allocated to other businesses place. Overall recommended! 鑊氣小炒唔錯 read more

If you're looking for authentic canto dishes for reasonable prices, this is definitely one of them. Situated in the southeast corner of Steeles and Brimley Ave, parking can be a pain. The plaza is tiny, limited parking spots and tight to manoeuvre around. This place gets busy. If you don't make reservations, you can leave your number and they'll call you when the table is ready. We came here on a Sunday at 5:30pm (thinking we're pretty early to beat the crowd) but we were wrong. We waited 20 minutes for a table. They have complimentary peanuts, soup and Chinese desserts at the end of your meal. Overall a good place for a family dinner or lunch. Not a big restaurant - roughly 13 tables. Great service, waitresses are all friendly and attentive. read more

Great food, but overpriced. The same pig stomach wrapped chicken soup sells for $38 here but $20 elsewhere. Everything in the pictures were good. The eel was ~$100+. The pumpkin sago dessert soup was unique for me, I haven't seen it anywhere else. Definitely recommend this place but prepare to spend. read more

Not happy. Don't want to cuss on Yelp. Food is still not bad. Just a couple of loud mouths in the restaurant to ruin your mood. Then you leave and you find a flippin' moron smoking his damn cigarette with a pop can placed on your car. That took the cake. With these flippin' idiots in the area. I ain't going back. F that crap.

**** 4 out of 5 stars **** It was my birthday, and since we cannot go dine-in, the next best thing is to order takeout through Ubereats! I order a double fried Lobster with Maggi sauce, black pepper beef short ribs, shredded chicken, and fish with Chinese vegetables. All the dishes were very well made, the flavours were very authentic. My order should have came with Chinese desserts, but they forgot to put it in. I was looking forward to the dessert, as many reviewers said that they make it well. Unfortunately, they lost 1 star. read more

Had a reservation for dinner on a Sunday night. This place gets really busy for dinner. Min party of 6 required for a reservation and recommended. Service was really good. We ordered a set dinner which was really great value and top off with a few extras. Order: Free range chicken, 2 lobsters stir fried with ginger & onion, steamed whole tilapia, sweet & sour pork, special duck, seafood with veggies, chinese broccoli & beef, fish maw soup, salted fish & chicken fried rice. Everything was really good except for the fried rice which was mediocre. Would definitely come back. read more

Foodcourt-level Chinese food at best. The lunch menus is pretty small and IMO it's a bit weirdly coordinated. You have your set seafood meals. But if you're ordering a la carte there's like TWO choices each of noodles, fried rice, and congee. They're mostly serving stir-fry dishes here. All of the dishes were all mediocre. Nothing stands out but nothing made me gag either. Size of the dishes is def A+ tho. Portions are wayyy more than enough! Return again? NOPE LOL. Not even big ass portions of food gon make me come back. read more

Lucky Pot - Lunch menu - Chinese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Very nicely-decorated and comfortable space serving a variety of different Cantonese dishes! Portion sizes were decent for the price and the food was good! However, the waitress was super patronizing though; kept passive-aggressively rushing us even though there was no one waiting for a table and brought the dessert before we even finished the main meal. Oh and when we paid the bill she was counting the money in front of us like we scammed her. Normally I don't care to mention service but this was a sour point to what was otherwise a good meal. read more

This is one of those "neighbourhood" restaurants for me. It can get quite crowded for dinner and they pretty much expect you to order, eat, pay and leave. It's not a restaurant where you can sit, eat slowly, and socialize with your friends and family. They will rush you because the line can go out the door since there isn't much waiting room in the front. I went on a Thursday night and had to wait for a table, and noticed that there was a constant line up. It's located in a small plaza with a convenience store, a Domino's and some other small shops as well. Basically, it's a plaza that I would never normally go to. With Lucky Pot, I've now been to this plaza twice (even though I've lived in this area for years) and I think I've tried enough dishes to be able to leave a fair review. They have pretty good set menus for lunch and dinner where you choose a couple of applicable items for a set price. I prefer the lunch over dinner. With the dinner, I found everything to be overly salty. By everything, I mean every single dish we ordered was too salty for me. The one thing that I did enjoy for dinner was the dessert at the end of the night. It's a Purple Rice with Sago and Taro. Very flavourful and not too sweet. If only I could've just had unlimited desserts for dinner! (2019/1) read more

Lucky pot is honestly one of the best budget eat Chinese restaurants in this area. The food is always, always consistently good and you never have to worry that you'd order something that you won't like. Everything is made to absolute perfection. We often get take out from this restaurant via Uber eats although it is just steps away. The reason is, this place gets soooo packed that it's hard to even find a table. They even rejected our take out order online once because it was so busy. I advise just ordering ahead of time to pick up at off peak hours or go during the weekday. The plaza is pretty difficult to find parking. We normally get the sweet and sour pork, satay beef and enoki mushrooms, and the eggplant with minced pork dish. You cannot go wrong with these recommendations! read more

I don't know about you, but I LOVE THIS PLACE. The restaurant is located in a corner plaza in the SW of Steeles Ave. and Brimley Rd. Plaza is ghetto af, but the food here is actually worthwhile. I have been to Lucky Pot a couple of times, and I will continue to frequent this restaurant whenever I am in the area :) I really hope Lucky Pot stays because over the 20 years of living in that neighbourhood, I have seen this spot change hands numerous of times, and never have I set foot in any of them (looked too sketched lol). Random night, my friend and I have decided to give them a try, thinking it might be hot pot, but it turns out to be a Chinese restaurant. It is similar to Congee Queen but, like Allison Y. has mentioned, there is no congee, but more homey dishes like steamed fish, clay pot dishes, and family styled dinner combos. I enjoy the a la carte options more than their dinner combos. Complimentary soup and soupy dessert are included during dinner... combo or not. My favourite dish at Lucky Pot would definitely be the steamed egg dish made with 3 types of eggs, topped with soy sauce and green onions! SO GOOD. The steamed egg comes out hot and is silky smooth; best paired with a bowl of white rice! But we opt for a Dried scallop & egg white fried rice, which was very light and pairs well with any dishes. The eggplant with minced meat was a nice dish too; it has a tiny bit of a kick! The soupy desserts MUST get a shoutout too! It is different each time I went, and it is absolutely satisfying. I seriously need to ladle some home lol. I had the Purple rice with taro and sago, and the second time, I had a Pumpkin based one... so creamy good. This new spot can get real busy. Reservations is highly recommended. They have booths and large round tables to accommodate larger parties. I hope Lucky Pot continues to do well, keep up the great work! #supportlocalbusiness read more

If you can come on a weekday for early or late dinner, I would highly recommend Lucky Pot. But any other times, you might find the experience frustrating and not worth the hassle. First, parking here is a nightmare. The lot is small to start with and sharing with numerous business in the plaza. And make sure you park your car back in, it will save you a lot of agony when it is time to leave. Since the restaurant is relatively new, it is quite popular. I personally don't want to wait more than 30 minutes for a table. I was lucky to be here on a Monday evening around 9 pm and there was no wait. Kitchen did get overwhelmed by dinner rush. I didn't get to enjoy the dessert of the day because kitchen got too busy and burnt their dessert while prepping. The wait staff did tell me that they have some burnt dessert if I am willing to try. (Turtle Shell Herbal Jello that tasted smokey) We ordered a few dish to try and the fresh from the wok flavour was good. Service was friendly and cheerful. Will be back on a quiet evening to give Lucky Pot another try. read more

I visited Lucky Pot to get take out during the pandemic. Service was fast. I called ahead of time and the server told me the order would be ready in 20 minutes. I arrived a little bit earlier than that and my order was nicely packaged sitting at the front. I had ordered the spicy eggplant with minced pork, sweet and sour pork, and garlic stirfried snowpeas. Food tasted delicious! In particular, the sweet and sour pork was fantastic and crunchy! They also gave complimentary grass jelly dessert as part of the meal. read more

Lucky Pot - Snow pea leaves, Sweet and Sour Pork, Spicy Eggplant with Minced Pork, and a Complimentary Grass Jelly Dessert - Chinese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A good local canto set menu restaurant. What made this place stand out wasn't just the above average food, but the service. We didn't want to ball out on a full family dinner set, we settled with ordering the 5 spice duck, sweet and sour pork, and the eggplant casserole/ pot. The sweet and sour pork was better than average and was really crispy despite being drenched in sweet and sour sauce. It was good and crunchy but wasn't anything extraordinary. The portioning for it was kind of small though. The five spice duck was tender and had really large portions, but the flavor wasn't anything out of the norm. What was saddening was that the skin of the duck wasn't crispy at all so other than the cartilage pieces of meat, the dish was lacking in texture. My favorite dish was the eggplant casserole with ground pork. The eggplant was extremely flavourful and when mixed with rice is so delicious that its the type of food that you can never stop eating. The slices of onion added a bit of crunch and contrast to the mushiness of the eggplant. Definitely a must try. read more

Lucky Pot is still one of my faves for family dinners. The today's special/promotion dishes are nicer food *and* pricier than the items on regular menu. Don't get me wrong, the today's specials are often competitively priced when compared to other restaurants. It is just that they are more expensive than the items on regular menu. When the servers suggested the daily promotions to us the last few times we patronized, they didn't volunteered the prices, and I got sticker shocks at the end. Since then, I make sure to ask for the prices before ordering. I would suggest you to do the same. Pricing on regular menu remains the same. Services level remains similar as before: friendly, effective, smiley. read more

Lucky Pot Restaurant is the latest restaurant to take over the space at the corner of Brimley and Steeles. Over the years there has been a merry go round of restaurants that have occupied this space but I really hope they will buck the trend and have more long term success. Serving some really solid Cantonese cuisine we had a family luncheon here and the food was excellent. We ordered a variety of items including part a set menu and additional items and everything came hot, quick and delicious. Portions were generous and prices very reasonable. The place was packed and apparently like this during lunch and dinner rushes as it's becoming a really popular neighbourhood joint for locals. Some of the highlights for us was the House Special Tasty Duck which was a marinated duck in a special sauce, sweet and sour pork with blueberries, Ja Ja chicken in a claypot and the lobster tamale fried rice which was outstanding! We really enjoyed our lunch today and can easily see this as our go to place in the future. Solid 4 out of 5 for some solid local Chinese food! . read more

Based on the most of the reviews, I think I had a higher expectations of this place. It was also recommended by a member in my meetup group. Lesson learned.. Always try this place first before bringing your out of town family to have dinner since they are only here for limited dinner and lunches over the weekend. My dad told me to research on finding places that are good.. I told him. this is what I did LOL?!?! I made a reservations for 7:30 and was told it will be busy.. so expect to get seated at 8pm on a Friday night. However, arriving there, it wasn't that busy and we didn't have to wait for the table. We were missing a chair and we asked twice to get an extra chair. .In the end, we just grabbed the chair from the next table as they simply was too busy to get us an extra chair. What we liked: The Steamed Fish.. At $72, it better be good! No clue what the fish was.. it may be the bass? but we didn't go with the usual fish and the fish was recommended by the waitress.. It was steamed perfectly and the fish was soft and fresh and the meat was easy to grab. The Fried Chicken.. I had wanted to try the duck but we got oversold by the waitress who said to order the Chicken. Normally, I don't like going with what the waiters recommend because they here to upsell on expensive dishes.. when we wanted to cancel the chicken a minute later, she said it was too late as the chicken is already being fried... also, we couldn't get half of the chicken we had to get the whole chicken at $32! The complementary soup and the Chinese Dessert. What we didn't like... The Eggplant Pot. Totally not delicious and usually, this dish gets devoured by my family.. it was half eaten and was left to be taken as takeout. The Oyster pot (not fresh oysters) and the green onions were barely fried. Their forte is not pot dishes.. so stay away from the pot dishes. The Sweet and Sour Pork.. whomever said this was one of the best they had must have been lucky because that dish was terrible and totally off of what can be consider as the standard HK style. .. food court has better sweet and sour pork. What most of us liked but not my mom: The three steamed eggs.. My mom chastised me for ordering such simple dish that could be made at home and therefore, not worth the price tag.. but it was a hit with everyone and goes well with rice. there were salty eggs but we could not taste the saltiness.... I don't remember what else we ordered but sufficient to say, I may likely be back to try the duck but is not in a hurry to back. As the night progresses, it was getting busy but not out of the doors line up busy. Parking is limited so arrive early to find a spot. read more

Lucky Pot has made its presence known in the Milliken community over the past few years for their take on classic Cantonese favourites, especially for family dinners. I always hear from my family friends and aunts that this place can get quite hectic during the dinner hours. Be sure to make a reservation if you're planning to have a big dinner! In terms of the food, you can find your classics that pack a lot of flavour. One of my favourite dishes from Lucky Pot has to be their Sweet and Sour Pork. The unique twist about their version is they add blueberries which is a nice change up from the typical pineapple chunks you would find. The Steamed Fish was perfectly steamed to pair perfectly with the sweetened soy sauce and sauteed green onions. You can also check out Lucky Pot for their lunch menu specials. They have your typical fried rice and noodle dishes but one of my favourites is their combo of splitting a sea bass into a large bowl of congee and a stir fry with black bean sauce. It's a fun way of mixing things up with a humble sea bass. Growing up, I saw a revolving door of restaurants that previously occupied the space Lucky Pot is currently in. However, I am glad Lucky Pot has survived over these last few years in satisfying the local community with their flavours. Service is decent with the wait staff. The prices are reasonable for the portion size you will receive. read more

I order take out over the weekend. The portion they gave is very generous. The stir fried pig intestine dish was horrible, it has very little flavour and the intestine was bitter ( didn't wash all the stuff out properly I am assuming) I would not recommended it. Their eggplant dish was amazing, I would highly recommend it. The rest of the dishes are mediocre. They also give you a free desert when you order their combos, I got taro sago which was a bonus. Overall I would say the price and portion are decent for this place but the flavour and taste is lacking. read more

NEVER again will I grace the doorstep of this horrible establishment. Just went in, not that busy, said no tables for 2, offered to share large table, she said: "I don't think so". I WAS SHOCKED OUT OF MY SKULL. Screw this place. 12:30 on Boxing Day, several large family tables empty and highly unlikely to be filled. **UPDATE**checked on Yelp and this happened to another couple as well. The place had tables open when we went - no surprise! read more

Definitely NNT- No next time. We ordered chicken porridge (with mushroom ),stirred fry noodles with beef and a vegetable with Fermented bean curd sauce. All 3 dishes were consistently tasteless that we had to request for salt and soy sauce as the fermented bean curd sauce is not strong enough makes the dish too watery. We also hardly get some chicken meat in the porridge just some bones in it. The ambiance is not pleasant too read more

This place offer very delicious and authentic Cantonese dishes at a super cheap price, with free appetizer soup and dessert, and portions are very big. Highly recommended. We had the five spice duck, shredded chicken, eggplant pot, and beef brisket pot rice. All of them are very delicious and they are very authentic Guangzhou taste (that's my home town). And the portions were surprisingly big. The appetizer soup (老火例湯) is free but very substantial and delicious. The dessert, which is also free, is a sweet soup that's different every day. The day we were there it was a sweet pumpkin soup with sago. It was super thick and delicious. We were there at 3pm on a Saturday so there wasn't many people and there was no lineup. I've heard from other that they usually have a big lineup. Since the place is not that big it's better to make a reservation if you do plan go visit at dinner time. read more

This family run restaurant is bigger than it looks, has a classy and homey vibe, but it's held back by it's limited menu (Chinese dishes, not HK!) and availability of items. What We Got: Lucky Pot Stir Fry Assorted Seafood, Shredded Pork with Fried Noodle: garlic fried snow pea leaves (off menu, $13.99) Great vibe and nice decor is a pleasant surprise in a cramped plaza with limited parking. Bonus points for being open on most holidays! The menu is just the two pictures you see on Yelp. Unfortunately, by 5 pm, half the menu is not available (specifically the noodles, rices, and congees). At this time, they are only making "little stir fry dishes" (siu chow) - the dishes that are "shareable". Complimentary soup was chicken and vegetables. Pretty good. Prices are a bit higher compared to competitors, but the portion size mostly corresponds! Dishes were standard fare. I thought the service was good, but perhaps not as outstanding as other reviewers experienced. read more

Went for dinner here on a whim, had a great meal and enjoyed the food until the bill came. The waitress actually had the nerve to insist on a larger tip!! I was totally shocked and would have taken back what I had already left but she had it in her hand. It's disgusting behaviour to act like this. A tip should not be expected but a bonus for excellent service from your server. I will never return. read more

For thanksgiving my family and I decided to try this Chinese restaurant. The service was friendly (not sure if it's because my parents and the waiter found out they were from the same town?!) and with that said, they were able to recommend a few extremely delicious dishes. We had a steamed fish, bean curd beef in a hot sizzling pot, veggies, crispy chicken, and oyster in a hot sizzling pot. They were all fresh ingredients and everything was cooked really nicely. The restaurant is mid size, and I've noticed a ton of take out orders during our time there. My family and I would definitely go back for another meal. read more

This is a small Chinese restaurant on brimley and Steele's that surprised me. The food was very flavourful and the waitresses are super friendly. We came here on Christmas Eve around 6:15pm without a reservation and waited for about 15 minutes for a table. Once we ordered, the food came out within minutes, steaming hot! Their lobster with maggi sauce was so good, it was better than many Chinese restaurants in Markham. The portions are also very generous for the price. We enjoyed every dish. Lobster was approximately $21 per pound I believe, which is much cheaper than other restaurants. The oyster pot was also only $14. You also get a Chinese dessert at the end of your meal. read more

We were a group of six, and they told us the wait time will be a while which is fair since it was a busy Saturday. Waited for over 30 minutes and got bypassed several times, possibly by the staff members' friends. They gave us a booth which is rather small for six people, so I asked if they could give us a table instead; there were two free big tables. The man, presumably the owner, told us that we would have to wait for another 20 minutes. Ridiculous. (We end up staying on the booth). read more

Just like another yelper said, they let friends bypass the waiting. We waited 20 minutes for a table. The previous customers already left but it took the staff another 10 minutes to start cleaning the table, which is fine as they were busy. They sat us down, even brought us a high chair for the baby, then came to tell us "sorry, this table was reserved". Another group literally JUST walked in. Basically they wanted us to wait some more for another table AFTER they seated us so they can give this table to their friends. I will even give them the benefit of the doubt that they are not their friends and they legitimately had a reservation. What kind of customer service is this? It's disgusting. If you really are that great, even if people had a reservation, they can wait for the next table available. Time management and customer service are the most basic skills and necessity to running a successful business. read more
