We have been customers of Lucky Dragon for approx 20/yrs. Just about every time my husband comes back from picking up an order, he almost always makes a remark about the owner. About her memory concerning our order, or something else they were talking about. When it comes to our orders, she'll ask if we'd forgotten, and would like to add a pint of pork for our dog, or asking if we'd like root beers, which we ALWAYS get when we pick up our order!! When we originally moved to Essex, we tried A LOT of Chinese restaurants around here. And absolutely none of them tasted right. We decided to take a chance, and ordered at Lucky Dragon, and have never regretted it. To be honest, we almost wouldn't have ordered there that day! BUT, that day was a ridiculously rainy day, and neither of us felt like driving to the restaurant in Glen Burnie that was our "Go To" spot! The owner at Lucky Dragon always recognizes us, either in person, or when we order by phone. And, to me, that's actually a nice touch. It's something that doesn't happen at a lot of the other restaurants that we've routinely gone to, over the years. I have always ordered extra shrimp with my shrimp fried rice. And just this year decided to try adding scallops as well. The owner asked if I'd ever tried their seafood fried rice (which was a cheaper option, even with the extra shrimp), and I hadn't. So, I ordered it, and was not disappointed in that dish either, at all. Through the years that we've been ordering there, we've never had a reason...

I don't think they care..half of the food comes frozen which is fine so how hard is it to deep fry crab meat ragoons....like come on...u burn them...every...
Read moreOrdered steamed dumplings. They weren't fully cooked and had black burned debris all over them. I'm not sure what was stuffed inside but it was pretty tasteless. The Singapore rice noodles tasted and smelled kinda like cigarette smoke. They also took forever to make the food. Probably about 45 minutes. I'd go next door to Little Cesar's horrible pizza before I spend more money here.
Edit: The Singapore rice noodles also have black burned debris in it.
