Lucky Express

I don’t sit and eat at too many places, but their food is so good, I didn’t want to wait until I got home. The salt and pepper chicken is my favorite. Not too salty, not too peppery. The general’s chicken was good, a little to saucy, but their chow mein is definitely my favorite of all Chinese food restaurants. Their phone is constantly ringing with orders, and I see why!

6÷14÷2016: Food was delivered hot, fresh and timely. The Family Dinner A included several tasty dishes and comes with ample portions. There was plenty of food leftover to enjoy the next day. The delivery driver was kind and respectful. This is a great venue to have on hand when there’s a hankering for good Chinese dishes and you want it delivered.

This is my second time here! Still knocking it out the park. Big portions, fresh ingredients, lots of flavor always a pleasure! Staff is friendly and attentive. worth the drive

Been contemplating about coming here and try there food till recently. Decided to give it a try and the food is pretty good. Not the best but for the price and portion they serve it is the best bang for your buck. Will definitely come back here when I need something quick for dinner.

must of called about… well let me look at my call log, oh yes i called 18 times. at one point they answered put me on hold and then hung up after being on hold for a couple minutes. food is delicious but and i have been a long time customer but after this i will no longer be coming here. this is how they treat customers. i then keep calling and its either a busy signal or it keeps ringing they dont even have the decency to answer and say its going to be a while or long wait or say that they are busy. was really looking forward to some good chinese food and well i guess i just saved myself a good chunk of change. not coming back here again thats for sure.

This place is actually pretty good. I ordered the Kung Pao shrimp and it was pretty satisfying! Avoided eating here just cuz of how it looked but to our surprise the employees were very nice and food was great!

Very easy to miss as it is on a side street. We ordered the Combo. chow fun and the Hong Kong combo. pan fried noodles. Kinda high on the prices but the amount of food made it worth it. It was actually pretty decent. Nothing like authentic, but good enough if you are jonesing to grub down on some Chinese food and can’t make it elsewhere. Small dining area. Nothing fancy. Just basically a takeout place with around 8 or so tables to dine inside. It is not in a great area of town (Del Paso Heights), but not unsafe either. Michael the cashier is really nice and brought out waters. The owners also own Tasty Express on Watt and Elverta. Worth a shot someday. Not a bad place if you want to scarf down a bunch of Chinese food and can make due without it being fully authentic.

The food was actually pretty good; hot and fresh. The prices are high for this locale and total lack of atmosphere. The dine-​in service is just plain bad. Ordered soup with our entrees. Asked if soup could be brought out well before our food; so that we could enjoy it before main meal. Waiter says «i guess we can do that for you». Was going to order iced tea, which they don’t serve. Instead we ordered diet sodas. Next thing we new a different server was bringing our soup and entrees together. Then the diet sodas arrived in cans. They were $ 2.50 a piece and no refills. Server never checked on us entire meal; until of course he brought the check. Hmmm, i left the appropriate tip

Not sure this was even food. Ordered the generals chicken and it had the consistency of jello. Delivery took over an hour, no napkins or utensils. Don’t waste your money, if this is your only option just wait for your next meal. Trust me.

Had their mongolian beef – on point!
Hot and sour soup was good. Pork tasted pork-​y?
Watermelon smoothie was more like fresh watermelon juice – AMAZING!
Ordered online and they called to verify. Delivered in about 30 minutes (I live less than 2 miles away!)
Not the healthiest, but always hits the spot!

Salt and pepper fries and salt and pepper pork were okay. I had better salt and pepper pork from my home town that has only two Chinese food options. Nothing amazing about this place. Hard parking when I got there and the location specifically is meh. They got my sister’s order wrong and their chow fun wasn’t amazing but wasn’t terrible either. Something to try I guess.

I called to place an order for delivery. The woman said she couldn’t find my address in her GPS and asked me several times if I had the «right address». I know my own address. It’s more likely that she was misunderstanding the spelling, yet she still chose to imply I didn’t know where I live instead.

I haven’t ate here in a while but I may post a positive response because every time I did eat here it was good! Small little place and not that great looking but the food is what makes it. Best hot and sour soup ever. Been eating here for at least 8 plus years and will eat again when I come back to visit

So I called in a order and they said 20minutes, I go in 30minutes and the food was not ready. They said 20more minutes, so we wait. The lady was so rude ignoring me when I asked how much longer because it still was not ready after another 20 minutes. I then ask for my money back and shes still telling me to just wait. I got my money back finally and left. So rude and they do not know how to run their business!

Im basically going to copy Angie V’s post. I called in my order, came in 15 minutes later, was told 20 more minutes. 45 minutes later i got a similar rude uncaring response and I requested my money back. I understand being busy. But 1 full hour from the time I order my food until I request a refund is crazy!

Amazing food at a great price! I’ll definitely order from here again. They have delicious pork buns (my favorite-​and I’m particular!) and potstickers (thick and doughy, the best way to make them!) and their wonton soup and bbq pork fried rice went above and beyond my expectations. I just moved to the area, and this food was compareable to my favorite place in the bay area. Loved it!

Dont know about everyone else, but not only is the delivery minimum my type of «party», but so is their menu! ;D ($ 15 min)
I love chinese food, so having the convenience of a restaurant that delivers is awesome. I usually order the Chicken chow mein, fried prawns, chicken fried rice and sesame chicken or sweet and sour chicken, & lemme tell ya, it’s all delish to me! They are ALWAYS arriving within the time limit – 30−40 minutes not bad to me. In the Bay, I would wait up to a hour and 15 at my fave spot via delivery becuz they were so popular, smh. I can tell their food is freshly prepared & cooked to order. The delivery drivers are sweet and not hankering for a tip, which makes me more open to want to give one! ;) This is my go to chinese cuisine spot, I like contributing to family owned establishments rather than a Panda Express, ijs. Check their menu out (here on Unilocal or eat24), they are flexible and willing to make adjustments if needed to ur order. A closed mouth wont get fed!

I can’t give anything lower than a 1. I ordered from this place and within an hour of eating their food I was puking and so ill that I had to call off of work.
When I felt decent enough to be able to talk to people I called them and was told to bring the food back. I had eaten less than half of what I ordered. I doubt I had even eaten a quarter of it. I was told to bring the food back and they would give me a refund.
I wasn’t feeling well enough to drive out to the store and take it back so I sent my room mate. The moment she got there it was a battle.
The lady behind the counter refused to give me anything but half of my refund even though I clearly had not eaten even half of the order. I explained to her calmly on the phone that I had been ill after eating her food. She told me that she’s been therefor 11 years and no one has ever been sick from her food (you can see here on Unilocal that that’s not true). She threw my room mate’s phone and broke the screen.
I am now left paying for food that made me sick and my room mate is forced to buy a new phone.
DO NOT EAT HERE. I have never been so ill after eating food in my entire life.
UPDATE: After writing this review, Janet (the manager) decided to refund my full amount. Either way, I am still very ill and in a lot of pain from constant trips to the restroom.

I could tell from the moment that I opened the carryout container that this food was gonna be wack. General’s Chicken should be a deep caramelized brown, this stuff had a tan like Marcia Cross. And the chow mein… maybe Wayne’s Wok has me spoiled but I won’t be back here.

I keep coming back for their Hong Kong style chow mein … crispy noodles pan-​fried to crispy golden brown, topped with meat and vegetables with oh so delicious topping! And hella cheap — $ 25 for a FULL tray, great value for catering! Dont forget their honey walnut shrimp, so addicting!
What also amazed me was the service. They always get your order right on. When I said easy on salt, easy on salt it was.
During my son’s birthday, I pre-​ordered and paid … told them I’ll pick my order the next day at 1pm. When I didnt show up at 115 the next day, they called to remind me. Hows that? And my food was nicely packaged and still steaming hot.
There are only about tables inside, so just make your order to go. Call and in 10 minutes it is ready. The place is not really for dine-​in, but hey, who cares.
