Lucky Dumpling

Great homey Chinese food.Interior of the restaurant looks like the typical Chinese mom-and-pop restaurant so I knew the food was gonna taste authentic. Glad that my expectations were not disappointed.Ordered chicken fried rice, spicy beef noodle soup, pork xiaolongbao, and a beef roll. The fried rice looked plain and simple, but in my opinion the best fried rice is cooked with the basic and simple ingredients, came out smelling super appetizing too. Bonus points for it including a fair portion of chicken. Came out on a decent sized plate and tasted great. Spicy beef noodle soup was actually so fire. Soup had a great depth of flavor and the noodles were super chewy which I enjoyed. My spice tolerance is GARBAGE but I was able to enjoy some of this still, so don't be afraid to order this if you also have a low spice tolerance. Pork XLB arrived in a metal steamer and were juicy and had a flavorful soup filling. Delicious. Beef roll came in four pieces, two rolls, each cut in half. Dish was savory and the beef was tender with a bit of fat, cilantro, and crunchy cucumbers. The outside was nicely pan fried.Overall, food is good and reminds me of authentic home-cooked meals by my parents and grandma, portions are great, staff is super friendly and attentive. The place offers great food at an excellent price for portion. Shoutout the guy at the register at the time, he was super polite. 5/5 all around.

Newly opened restaurant in RC. Glad that more Chinese places are opening in the inland empire.Service is good, restaurant is clean, ambiance is so-so.Unfortunately, food is just average at best.For the Xiao Long Bao, the perfect ratio is 20-30% soup, 70-80% meat but here it's not. That's why the XLB sinks and doesn't maintain that upright & structured shape. Upside is, it's better than China Republic's XLB.For the spicy wontons, I don't think they make it by hand. Tastes like it's from a central kitchen. The skin was super hard. Beef Noodles... The broth was very watery, lacked flavor. The noodles itself were also hard.Walnut Shrimp wasn't too bad but too sweet.Mongolian Beef lacked flavor but also too sweet.Baby Kailan was ok, you can probably make it at home yourself.Pan Fried Buns.. do not order. Their way of making isn't the traditional chinese way.Meat pie was alright but 626 area has better ones.Overall, you can get better Chinese food from either Seven Grams in Victoria Gardens (for XLB, Spicy Wontons and Beef Roll) or Changan Kitchen in Ontario (Beef Noodles, Fried Rice, Vegetables, Pan Fried Buns).

Lucky Dumpling - My Mom Ate Green Beans, and That's a MiracleAfter reading all the rave reviews, I had to check out Lucky Dumpling, and let me tell you--it lives up to the hype! The service was exceptional, and the staff genuinely wanted feedback on their dishes (a rare and refreshing touch!).Let's get into the food: Cucumbers - Crisp, fresh, and a perfect start to the meal. Green Beans - Absolute showstopper. I haven't had green beans this good in years at a Chinese restaurant. They were so good, in fact, that my mom, who despises green beans, actually ate them. If that's not a ringing endorsement, I don't know what is. Walnut Shrimp - Delicious, perfectly crispy, and came in a generous portion. Mongolian Beef - The only dish I wouldn't reorder, but that's just personal preference--I'm not an super onion fan, and it had a few too many for me. But get this--the waiter asked for feedback and promised to remember us next time for a "less onion" version. Talk about service!So if you're on the fence, take a chance on Lucky Dumpling. I'd go back for the green beans alone!

Came back within the week to try their handmade noodles and they did not disappoint! My favorites were the spicy beef noodle and chili oil wonton. So flavorful! The chili oil they make is very fragrant without being overly spicy. The noodles are bouncy and chewy. Service was very quick and kind, and they packed all our leftovers up for us. The portions are quite large that we had much leftovers ordering two noodles and a wonton between two people. Perfect food on a chilly day.

I like this place a lot more than what the previous restaurant was. Their beef noodle soup is good. The noodles taste handmade. I really like their soup base too and the beef quality. Their xiao long bao soup dumplings are good too and the meat pies. I would come back for the beef noodle soup. The service was also good.

My new go to dumpling spot! This place has excellent food and service. I've been here a couple times now and it's my favorite dumpling spot in this area. Cheap, large portions, and very tasty. I ordered the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup, Xiao Long Bao, and Wontons in a Spicy Chili Oil Sauce. The Spicy Beef Noodle Soup was actually pretty spicy, compared to the last time I ate here. The beef was tender and noodles were super bouncy. The Xiao Long Bao was very rich and the wrapper was the perfect thickness. The Wontons were also very very spicy! Everything I've ordered and tried from this restaurant has been a hit!

Great service We tried their noodles and leek Pocket, the leek Pocket was still cold inside.. we asked them to reheat and they popped it in the microwave and came out steamy They did gave us free cucumber side dish as an apology Id probably won't be ordering the leek Pocket again but their noodles were delicious

Came to Lucky Dumpling on a rainy Thursday evening craving soup and opted for the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup. It was a pleasant surprise--the broth was mild but not sweet, the beef was juicy and perfectly cooked, and the handmade noodles were delicious. Service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were reasonable. A great spot for a comforting meal!

The food was excellent! Service was friendly and fast! My granddaughter and I stopped in for some pan fried potstickers and ended up also ordering some wonton soup and shrimp fried rice. We enjoyed it all and can't wait to come back again.

The food is delicious and the plates are big, the price is reasonable and the service is good.
