We do take-out from Lucky Bamboo regularly and dine-in about once a quarter. It's been a real pleasure over the last decade to watch this immigrant, family-owned restaurant gradually expand and upgrade its space, and recently add a second location. They've earned it with good, friendly, and extremely rapid service, and good food. Eat in or take out--I've never had anything bad at the Lucky Bamboo and never been disappointed.

This was our first dining experience here. We went on a Saturday evening and it was not very busy. There was only one waiter working at the time but he got us everything we needed. We ordered the pot stickers which were probably one of the best I have had. And we ordered the Pink Lady, Peony Special, and a Spider Roll sushi. They also gave us a salad of sorts to start with which was tasty. We were surprised at how much food we got with the sushi! It was all delicious and it was a beautiful work of art. We can't wait to go back again soon!

I went with my husband for lunch and got the Thursday special which was Sweet and Sour chicken and moo shoo pork. We were the only ones in the restaurant. The atmosphere is lacking. The restaurant is located in an alley. I was hoping to find a hidden gem of restaurant but that was not the case. The Sweet and Sour chicken was served with canned chunked pineapple which was cold. Overall the meal was just not great. We also asked for some hot mustard. It was more like watered down hot mustard. Very runny and didn't have the usual kick as most hot mustards do. I couldn't wait to get out of this restaurant. I'll be sticking with Lucky Bamboo from now on.

Pretty much Chinese fast food. Counter style, service. Not extensive like a Chinese Buffet but several choices. What you would expect in a mall food court or airport concourse only in a stand alone building.I had the 2 entrée plate, Orange Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken. Both were good. I thought the Orange Chicken was very good.Egg Rolls were below average. The Crab Dumplings looked good. Would probably try them over the Egg Roll next time.I had the two meats w Fried Rice, an Egg Roll and a bottle of Pepsi for $11.50 with tax, no tip given the cafeteria style service.Overall, pretty good Chinese food for the money and super fast.I ate there twice in two weeks because it was convenient to where I was working and pretty good. I wouldn't drive a long ways just to eat here.People were super friendly and smiled, which is getting rare these days.I would not hesitate to go there, just realize that it is food court Chinese served cafeteria style.

We go here as a regular (2 x per month) lunch stop for work. The food is o.k. It is pretty inexpensive - 8.00 for all you can eat. I find myself getting the same thing each time. There is plenty of seating, it is relatively clean. The buffet is well stocked.
