    If you're looking for good tasting food at a good price and big portions then this is your place! The gal serving is always very sweet and nice. I don't think I've ever received rude service from her. Combo A is the one item entree but the way they serve you it looks as if you would've gotten the two item entree.

    Nice shrimp

    Delicious! This Chinese fast food exceeded my expectations. I ordered a two item combo, with rice, veggies, salt and pepper shrimp, and mushroom chicken. The shrimp was full of flavor-- I'm thinking it may have been fresh rather than frozen. Everything I ordered tasted much better than the usual fast food at other places. This place is conveniently located near the Van Buren entrance of the 91 freeway and shares a parking lot with many other businesses. There was no line at 4pm on a Sunday, and my transaction took about 1.5 minutes. Super fast. Cost about $11.

    Ordered the family meal for take out, service was really good. Food was just OK in my opinion, not the best Chinese food I've ever had and not the worst. For the price and portion, this place is pretty solid though.

    +++ Huge portions, the large combo is absolutely massive +++ Delicious rice noodles on offer in addition to the standard chow mein or rice ++ Salt and pepper shrimp! Well seasoned and cronchy + Orange chicken good flavor, and they offer a spicy version + Black pepper chicken is good, basically hoisin sauce and pepper, lil heavy on the salt + Most of the meat dishes are breaded and fried, which is generally what I'm after from one of these buffet style Chinese restaurants Hard to go wrong here. One of the better buffet-style American Chinese food places around.

    2 item Special Combo B Plate , comes out to be $8.50 after tax.  I got Orange chicken and mushroom chicken

    Looking for cheap Chinese food? Lucky Wok has got you covered! This fast food Chinese restaurant has a great selection of food items in steam trays. This place offers 1 item, 2 item and 3 item combos. All combos come with a choice of steamed rice, fried rice or chow mein. 1 and 2 item combos are packed in a styrofoam box while the 3 item combo consists of an additional small container for the 3rd item. When I say the box is packed, I'm not kidding. They over fill the box and close it with no space to spare! Talk about value! I went with the 3 item combo (teriyaki chicken, orange chicken, and mushroom chicken) with the chow mein noodles.. Pricing is $10 for 3 items (tax included) and $8.50 for 2 items, and $7.50 for 1 item. Orange chicken was fresh and on par with the one at Panda Express. Teriyaki chicken was tender and tasted great. Mushroom chicken had plenty of veggies and was another great dish. The chow mein noodles were cooked perfectly and complemented the meal. Overall I was really impressed with the food given the value! The 1 or 2 item combo is more than enough food for 1 person! Looks like I am going to be having plenty of left overs for days with all that food I ordered! There is plenty of parking here as space is shared with other small businesses in the area.

    2item Large combo B plate: beef and Beef with Broccoli and BBQ Pork.

    Great value, decent food. It's on my lunch rotation. They pack the box and my stomach is happy

    That barbecue pork is delicious and I'm not sure what kind of chicken that is in the front but it's incredible

    The food is actually incredible. This is the kind of Chinese food place you'd come to when you're tired of Chinese food spots. Its very high quality, clean and fresh. Even the steamed veggies are absolutely delicious.

    HUGE portions!

    Does anyone know if the old owners are back?

    I went 3 months ago and they still weren't back because the food didn't taste the same. I hope they come back soon!

    I visited on October or November of 2019 and the employee informed me that the original owners had gone away for a while, but would be back eventually. The food is not the same anymore! Is there any info on when/if they will return? Thanks!

    Oh wow I had no idea.. I haven't been there since oct 2019 I will check it out thanks for the info.. hmm I didn't even know about it.

    Do they offer gift cards?

    Not yet

    Dose it contain MSG?

    They don't add MSG, but few ingredients contain it such as Soy Sauce.

Big Sky was my **go-to Chinese food spot in Riverside** for years. **Then tonight happened.** I placed a DoorDash pickup order at their new location -- sweet and sour pork, beef chow fun, beef porridge, pork and shrimp siu mai, and white rice. They even threw in extra rice, and I was genuinely excited to dig in. That excitement ended the moment I looked down at my bowl and found a **MAGGOT sitting on top of my rice.** I called the restaurant immediately and calmly explained what happened. They told me to contact DoorDash since that's how I ordered. Fine. I reported it through DoorDash's platform and waited. Then I got a call back from DoorDash -- not to help me, but to relay a message: **Big Sky had contacted them specifically to refuse my refund.** Let that sink in. A customer found a maggot in their food, couldn't eat a single bite of a $54.19 order, and the restaurant's response was to **actively call DoorDash to make sure I didn't get my money back.** I understand that occasionally bugs happen in food service. It's gross, but I was fully prepared to move on had they simply taken responsibility. Instead, they chose to fight a $54 refund over a maggot. That tells you everything you need to know about how this restaurant values its customers. **Eat here at your own risk -- and if something's wrong, you're on your own.**

    I was really craving Chinese food since I'm away from home, so my friend and I decided to try…read moresomewhere new and came across Jade China. I'm honestly really glad we did. The restaurant itself is super spacious, and since we came at kind of an odd time after the lunch rush, it was really calm and relaxing inside. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Calamari, and it was really good. The calamari was crispy, lightly seasoned, and still tender inside, which made it super satisfying to eat. I do wish it came with a dipping sauce, but we already had sweet and sour sauce on the table and ended up using that instead, which actually paired really well with it. We also got the Chicken Pad Thai, which honestly impressed me a lot. The portion size was huge for the price, I think it was around $12-13, which felt really worth it for how much food we got. The noodles were flavorful, well cooked, and had a good balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors without feeling too heavy. The people working there were really welcoming and kind, and it felt like a family-run restaurant, which made the experience feel even more comforting and homey.

Don't expect refills or conversations about the day or the meaning of life. Bathroom: clean. Toilet and a urinal. Food: Before my main course arrived, I was served a small cup of egg drop soup and some crispy noodles with some type of sweet dipping sauce. Considering these were complimentary, I'm not going to complain. Soup was my okay. my mapo tofu came with a side of white rice. Upgrading to brown or fried rice will cost you an additional $1. This is the most bizarre mapo tofu I've ever had. Rather than the traditional ground pork and wood ear mushrooms, this came with long strips of fried pork and no mushrooms. I'm also used to thicker sauce, but this one was very watery. A tad spicy, but not over bearing. Maybe a recipe from a different Provence of china? Not what I was looking for. $15.00 later and a fortune cookie...and I was done. Not sure if I'd come here for the mapo tofu again. Others in the restaurant offered the 2-3 item combos. Typical orange chicken or Kung Pao chicken w rice or chow mein. Not my thing.

It was not too loud in there and the place was relatively empty so that was nice. Biggest disappointment was service, because our table ordered chow mein and the waiter brought us chow fun (flat noodles with gravy). When we told him that we ordered chow mein, he told us that what we ordered was chow fun, so I showed him what we ordered on the menu and he said "you wanted lo mein". While I get that, he spent a minute trying to figure out where the item was and couldn't find it. I reviewed pics on here and it seems like other people got the thick yellow noodles for chow mein. Anyway, they replaced it for us but I overheard the waiter tell his manager that we ordered chow fun by accident. The manager then told us something about "our mistake" upon paying, placing blame on us . The manager was nice about it, but we repeatedly told the waiter chow mein and he kept correcting us to chow fun. Also, there is a section of the menu labeled chow mein and a separate page labeled chow fun. I think I know what we ordered. Disappointing.
