Mongolian Beef Lunch Special
john h.

I ordered their Mongolian Beef lunch special with vegetable chow mein. They served me some soup first which was passable. The main dish came out with beef, noodles and a small vegetable egg roll. The egg roll tasted like it was previously frozen. The Mongolian beef was excellent, it tasted good with the chow mein which was not overly seasoned. The service was good, water refills were prompt. The ambiance was bare bones Chinese restaurant.

Peking pork

This building was home to Chung King. Probably one of my favorite Chinese buffets growing up as a kid in the 90's and 2000's. Along with Luau Garden, Chung King served fresh Chinese food and endless amounts of it. So when I was in the area I decided to stop by and support a familiar place. Located right off Watt Avenue, Lucky Wok is a more than decent Chinese restaurant. My experience eating here was a good one thanks to the young man who waited on me. He was courteous and attentive. Food here was a solid 3.5/5 stars. Fried prawns stood out best. Big pieces of shrimp in a nice batter. The hot mustard sauce here is no joke. Go light unless you got a death wish! Peking pork here was cooked perfectly. I loved their sauce it was covered in. I'd return just for that dish. The Singapore noodles threw me off. They had a curry base despite not looking like they did in the picture. But I enjoyed all the veggies in it and I still ate it all. There was a female worker who talked on speaker phone the entire time lol. Her voiced echoed throughout the entire restaurant. I was the only customer and I wasn't going to say anything. Although Chung King is long gone it's nice to know a traditional Chinese eatery took over. Their food is worth a try as it's made fresh and the portions are huge, also it's pretty good!

Soup is a liquid dish typically prepared with water, broth (meat, fish, or vegetable), or milk. It contains various ingredients. In this case, a sea of ​​produce and vegetables. But here, it seemed to be a vegetable broth with a significant seafood content. Which, of course, greatly spoiled the soup's perception. We used to order soup at this place all the time, but today was apparently our last time. No one even wanted to finish it. A whole bunch of carrots and broccoli. Thanks, but let's change the soup's name to the real thing: carrot, broccoli, and seafood soup.

Sweet & Sour Pork with Chowmein Delicious.
Reza B.

Was passing through the neighborhood starving. This place came up with good ratings. I ordered to go an hour before closing. And was skeptical of how my food would be prepared... I took the chance anyway. I ordered the sweet & sour pork combo, salt & pepper pork & hot & sour soup. Let me tell you - no regrets! It's exactly the flavor that I've been craving a missing. With a few restaurants disappointing me not too long ago, this was such a great surprise. The food was prepared well. Chowmein not greasy. Cooked perfectly with a lot of flavor. The sweet & sour sauce was just saucy enough. A perfect merry of sweet & tinge of the sour tang. The hot & sour soup was perfection. Exactly what I needed in this 40 degree weather. They did NOT skimp on the soup fillings either. They definitely didn't rush to make or short my meal of any seasoning at all. Highly recommend!

Potstickers
Jorge E.

First time ever trying the food here at this Chinese spot. I did pick up and was greeted very quickly by a lovely man. The ambiance inside was observed to be clean but also empty. It was about 230pm on a Thursday so lunch special ends at 3pm everyday. I got my food and came back to work and the food was okay for the price. The General Chicken was soaked in the sauce as you can see in the pic, the Chow Mein was meh. The potstickers were really good though! I kinda felt like the general chicken and the chow mein was missing some flavors but I did love how my food was really hot when I picked it up and then driving back to my work. It's not a bad place to order it but for me I will try their dinner specials and see if I want to go back again.

I purchase some war wonton soup I wasn't feeling well. The soup I can't say much about it because when I got home I put some mama noodles in it with the season packet so it's good now but here's my complaint The pork that they put in the soup is old you can taste that flavor when pork is old how dare they everything should be fresh I'm going to put this picture of this piece of pork up I threw the rest of it away I kept this piece because they pretty much all look the same The service was great very nice people The ambience I only have one problem with that When you own a restaurant you need to keep everything clean including your inside doors they shouldn't be black I should have took a picture of that it was horrifying about his horrifying is this piece of shitty meat. Don't put day old three day old or whatever the case may be meat on a customer's plate in their soup or otherwise

Seafood Rice Noodle Soup, Chicken Chow Mein,Mongolian Beef,French fries.

I and my family first time this place. A menu with a wide variety of dishes. All so good and fresh!

General Chicken & Fried Rice
Sam S.

Dined in and had the General Chicken with Fried Rice combo for dinner tonight. The fried rice visually appeared ok, but was slimy upon taste. There were a few hard pieces of rice also. I concluded that the rice served to me was old and overdue. Nice people in the front but should not be serving old rice to customers. tsk tsk

Salt & pepper prawns combo
Alejandra G.

Food is really good I ordered the pawns combo. Comes with complimentary soup & a side of rice. The price is supper affordable for the large portions ! The servers was very attentive. Bright us some hot sauces and tea. Restaurant can get loud during busy times. But for lunch and after it's pretty quiet.

Looks good, unfortunately it doesn't taste good. No veggies in the chow mein and greasy fishy tasting food.

Years ago, I had…read morethe best beef noodle soup of my life at a noodle house in Shanghai, and I've been craving that same authentic flavor ever since. When I heard this place served authentic Chinese beef noodle soup, I knew we had to try it. And we were not disappointed! The beef noodle soup was absolutely delicious, but what really stood out to me was the quality of the noodles. They had the perfect texture, just the right amount of bounce, and incredible flavor. You can really tell the difference when noodles are made right! I also loved the self-serve sauce and spice bar, where you could customize your soup exactly how you like it. Such a nice touch! We ordered a few side dishes too, including the rice cakes and pumpkin sesame balls, and both were amazing. Everything was packed with flavor. My wife loved it, my kids loved it, and I loved it. We all had a fantastic time, and it made my 50th birthday celebration even more special. If you're looking for authentic Chinese food, especially a really good bowl of beef noodle soup, definitely check this place out. Highly recommended!

The food quickly comes out piping hot and there is an unlimited condiment and topping bar that you can use to customize your bowl to your heart's content. The price is also very fair and they don't accept/require any tip so the price you see is the price you pay (with tax added on top). It also seems to be within a little Chinese/Asian plaza/shopping center so you can browse around after your meal too. The area seemed a little bit sketchy so I would be careful of your cars and don't leave any valuables in sight.

When they came out to bring us water they asked us to move in case a "big party" came they would have no where else to sit, so we moved (they couldve seated us in the first place and no big party came..). Anyways, ordered the yum woonsen, pork drunken noodle and the khao soi. All were 15.95 each. First glance, portion differences was crazy. The drunken noodle plate was so BIG, then compared to the yum woonsen and khao soo those were soo small. I wanna say their stir fried dishes r big portions and everything else is small ig. Flavor of yum woonsen was pretty good, i usually like the sauce, two shrimps. Drunken noodle not bad, noodles r cut rly big lol and bit mushy decent flavor. Overall wouldnt come back, would rather go to saivaree (sister restaurant) which gives better portions and i believe their pricing is cheaper/same.

The broth is flavorful and satisfying without being too heavy. The white tonkotsu is also very good if you're in the mood for something richer and creamier. Definitely don't skip the geso either! It's delicious and one of our favorite things to order alongside the ramen. Alternatively, if you're not in the mood for noodles, they have an excellent Tonkatsu Donburi. Ryujin can get pretty crowded around dinner, especially on colder nights when everyone seems to have the same idea, so I'd recommend planning accordingly and being prepared for a possible wait. It's worth it, though! Great ramen, authentic flavors, and a spot we're always happy to come back to.

This had the perfect balance of sweetness. It was light and refreshing and balanced the rest of the flavors of the meal. I started with the seaweed salad. It was a solid seaweed salad. Good seasoning and texture. It was a good portion size as well. Melissa and Jonathan had the gyoza. They were stuffed full of meat, but I felt like the seasoning was a little less than and also they were unevenly cooked. I still tried one though because a gyoza is a gyoza. As my main, I had the karamiso ramen with a spicy miso based broth with seasoned ground chicken, veggies and chili threads for an extra kick. I enjoyed this bowl of ramen. It was the perfect level of spice. I am partial to ground meat in ramen, so I liked that this was an option. The veggies were cooked al dente which I appreciated, and the broth was filling and flavorful. The noodles were thin which is my favorite type. Attentive service here. OUr water cups were always filled no matter how hot the ramen was. Solid meal here.
