Lucky Cafe — Restaurant in Boston

I LOVE char sui (Roasted Pork BBQ) and roasted duck. Unfortunately, where I live, the quality of these two dishes has gone downhill. So, on an adventure to find both pork and duck bbq outside of Boston, I visited Lucky Cafe. How lucky was I!

The pork was lean, crispy, and had enough fat to keep the meat moist. The duck was also lean and very crispy. Do yourself a favor and get extra sauce with your order. Expect less than $15/lb each for the duck and pork.

The owners of the restaurant are extremely kind and helpful when ordering. They speak English, Vietnamese, and Chinese to list what I heard. I can't wait...

I always like coming to this place because their food is so good. I had an unpleasant experience today because I ordered a D17 with no veggies and a substitution of chicken wings for beef teriyaki. I got all the way home and found that there were veggies in my food. I don't like veggies and my kids also don't like them and so I share the rice with them. I had to go back out after calling them to have them make the food the right way. Plus it was raining. Very unpleasant. But again I love their food and I will continue to come back...

If you want some real Cantonese Chinese food and roasted meat in Dorchester area, this is the place. If you are super hungry, the 3 meat delights will fill any stomach. Huge portions of meats on top of a container full of rice. Salt and pepper squid and porchop or shrimps with rice, fish and tofu with rice, and black pepper beef are some of my favorites. Everything is very flavorful.

This place is takeout only since COVID...
