Lucky Dragon Restaurant — Restaurant in Minneapolis

If your looking for your fill on low-cost, economical Chinese and Vietnamese food near the U, this is probably your best bet. The food selection is fair for the amount of money you pay, and the best thing I tried there was the Egg Foo Young Brown Sauce. I seriously put that on almost every plate I had since it blended well with the foods in the buffet. The taste is alright, but you wont be disappointed and youll most likely leave very full.

The environment definitely looks like it could be updated with newer decor, but the dimmed atmosphere really sets the mood for a Valentine's Day dinner with your significant other, better than White Castle's, I hope?

Overall, the food is good in a sense that your getting alot for what you pay, and although some dishes are inedible, just put that Brown Sauce on it! (Im writing this review based on how I experienced Lucky Dragon 6 months ago, recipes might have changed since then)

However, I once ordered take out and consumed/pitched Chicken wings that tasted off, I understand many places use eggs to coat the chicken but the Chicken Wings I had, had an overwhelming taste of eggs, the 'bout to go bad'...

Hi everyone,

My wife and I (vegans for seven years) just ate at the Lucky Dragon, next to Hard Times Cafe….wow.

Now, most spots that offer Vietnamese food and food like it, taste about the same. Lucky Dragon has VEGAN CREAM CHEESE WONTONS! These are very hard to find and they were delicious! The general Tso’s tofu, Amazing! But the crowning achievement that we had was their “Fried Tofu” now….sounds boring, it’s anything but! Combined with their house made chili oil, it’s divine.

Go in, tell em Youre vegan, they’ll take care of you. The staff is incredibly friendly, asked us how our food was, made recommendations, it’s a true mom and pop stop and I couldn’t recommend this place more. It’s criminal that we were the people in this place on a Saturday night. The food and service is amazing, I would love to have a vegan meet-up here and flood this place...

I found this hole in the wall randomly as I was trying to find a quiet place to meet with a girlfriend. The two coffee shop diners were closed, despite being listed as open. The hole in the wall, dimly lit coffee shop next door was blasting loud heavy metal and so Lucky Dragon was my only option. As an Asian, I normally avoid places like these without a true Chinese restaurant named. That said, the customer service was amazing. I was immediately welcomed by an elderly grandfather type and then served by an older woman (I'm assuming - likely inappropriately - the wife and chef!). She had amazing customer service and the owners are SO sweet and kind. I asked for recommendations and went with hers - fried tofu (SO GOOD!) and the beef chow fun. I never normally go to places like this but will definitely be back! And that's coming...
