I have the pleasure of living a hop, skip and jump away from Lucky AF. I haven't actually dined in but it always seems very happening every time I've gone to pick up food! It's typically busy with music and a nice hip vibe. The staff is always very friendly and the sushi is absolutely delicious! They also have an array of sake/beer/cocktails that you can add to your take out order! My go-to is typically an assortment of sushi and sashimi which is always fresh and delicious! read more

The food is delicious! Massive portions that you could either split or have multiple meals. The service was pretty fast and quick. We got put in the upstairs box room and we were put there with 2 super loud big groups. We could barely hear ourselves let alone have a conversation. As soon as we walked down the stairs it was dead quiet and there were a lot of other groups. It was busy but walking down the stairs made it so quiet. I got the shrimp fried rice (big portions) And my mom got sesame shrimp and we shared. Our friends got other delicious looking food! read more

The sushi was okay (side note: I do have really high expectations for sushi). Even though the fish quality is mid, they have a lot of interesting and creative rolls. I ordered the Osaka Sashimi which was an interesting medley of fish, squid, and crab. One thing , though, is when we walked in, they told us that it would be a 30 minute wait and they would notify us via phone and added us to the waiting list. However, after 45 minute, we were still waiting so we went back in and apparently our name disappeared from the waiting list (I dunno?). Our server seemed like she had a hectic day, but she was really kind- I hope she was able to get some good rest after today. We were seated in the very front of the restaurant so we were super close to the entrance but I feel the ambiance would be better towards the back of the restaurant. read more

Food was great! Ordered the edamame as an appetizer and it was only a small portion however it was good. The sesame chicken had a good taste to it however the temperature was cold. The shrimp & vegetable tempura was great but can you really mess that up? We will try this spot again but this visit wasn't a good experience. read more

Lucky AF is delicious AF. I've only been here with a group of people, and it's so easy to order more than you can eat. The portions are huge! First -- those dumplings. As you can see, they are pretty big. It was good, perfect amount of lobster & ricotta. The pho spring rolls took the show. DELICIOUS! Crispy, flavorful, yummy. Then I went wrong thinking I could also finish a roll + an entree. I had lots of leftovers (which warmed up well). Superman roll, A1. And the tempura. OMG i didn't expect that much food! Also really good, and a nice mix of starch & savory veggies. The servers are always friendly and really helpful navigating the menu. And the patio is the perfect place to hang on a nice day. Also, I love the mural in the parking lot! read more

Amazing food! Delicious and large portion size, although the poke bowl had a little too much rice and lettuce and not enough fish/other toppings. read more

The restaurant has a very cool ambiance. I've also delivery from them plenty of times and the food has always been consistent. The dishes are really unique and just amazing. I enjoy their bento boxes and they give you a lot of food for the money. They are opening another location on Forest Hill Ave which I am very excited for. read more

This is hands down the best sushi I have ever had! Started our meal with pork gyoza, again the best I've ever had. Perfectly cooked and comes with a delicious ponzu dipping sauce. For my sushi rolls I got Superman roll and the Lucky AF roll. Both were so delicious but Superman was my favorite, probably due to the cream cheese addition! One thing to call out is both of these rolls are large and you're definitely getting your moneys worth. I went on a Friday night during the busiest time and was quoted a 45 minute wait, however they ended up seating us in only 15 minutes! Service was amazing. Our waitress was kind and attentive! 100% will be back next time I'm in the Richmond area! read more

This is my go-to place near me for good quality sushi. My mom was visiting and I took her here for lunch. It's normally been a 4 star spot for me, but this past visit was 5 stars! We came on a Wednesday afternoon, they didn't seem to have the full staff so we could only sit in one section which wasn't an issue. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, I find that Lucky AF's best sushi are the simple rolls and sashimi. Whenever I order more complicated rolls they fall flat for me. We ordered the seaweed salad, miso soup (they brought us a ginger salad on accident, but left it), the salmon avocado roll (I always order this here), escolar, eel, and scallops. Everything was absolutely incredible. It was all so fresh and great quality. My mom was so thrilled about what a delicious meal it was. She kept mentioning later how yummy it all was. I'd highly recommend ordering what I mentioned above. Lucky AF is a great spot for simple sushi. read more

They have the best sushi and the best pho (only beef, though). My children have a favorite pho place since they were young. However, Lucky AF blew them away. This is now their favorite! So many other great choices too! read more

This is my favorite sushi place in Richmond For appetizers, I love the lobster dumplings, shrimp shumai, gyoza and the pho beef spring rolls. I'd have to say the pho spring rolls are my faveeeeee. My favorite rolls to get are the Harley Quinn and the Lucky AF. My partner usually gets the Wonder Woman and Philly. Almost every sushi place I've been to includes either cucumber or avocado in their Philly roll, but lucky's roll has neither and they charge like $3 to add it. The drinks are good and we've never had bad service here. The waits can be long sometimes, especially on the weekends and at dinner. I've gone on a random Tuesday and been told the wait was an HOUR. They do take reservations, but only for groups of 6 or more. Speaking of hours, they do have happy hour - excuse me, "Lucky Hour", which I tried for the first time recently. For me, the deals ($1 off this, $2 off that) aren't killer enough to constitute going specifically for HH. Plus, they condense the menu and you can only order from a selection of like 5 or 6 rolls/apps. The galaga roll they feature during HH is bomb though. I usually like miso soup, but I tried theirs and it was the saltiest thing I've ever tried to eat in my life. Big o ass. One thing I will note about them is that they tend to plate/pack sushi together, so be specific if you have allergies in your group. My partner is allergic to crab/lobster and this has happened to us during in-person dining and takeout. read more

I ordered 2 rolls with shrimp tempura in them and they were both ICE COLD!!! Do NOT eat sushi here it SUCKED!!! What a bunch of hacks.

I love Lucky AF and come here several times a month. Their happy hour menu is such a great deal and you can order all of their rolls for around $20! My favorites are the galaga and the robin roll. Their pho spring rolls are also pretty good as well. Great value and good food are always a plus in my book! Service is hit or miss here but a great regular haunt. +1 Vibe +1 Taste +1 Presentation +0.5 Service +1 Value read more

If you want delicious, fresh sushi without spending an arm and a leg, go to Lucky AF. All of their sushi is made fresh and you can tell the great quality. They have plenty of classic as well as specialty rolls. I personally love getting their Captain Planet combo, which comes with 3 vegetarian rolls along with soup & salad all for $16! They also have some great lunch specials if you are looking for a great deal on delicious sushi. If you are not a huge sushi but happen to go here with friends or family, they have lots of options. Check out their appetizers or Chefs entrees like sesame chicken, miso salmon, and lamb chops. Lucky AF makes it really easy to order online for takeout. If you want to dine inside, plan to Uber or at least be willing to search for street parking which can be limited especially during the weekend. The restaurant isn't necessarily high end but it's definitely a sit down restaurant vibe that you will really enjoy either with friends, family, or even on a date. read more

We came in as a small group for work on a Monday evening and didn't expect it to be busy, but it got busy really quickly! Our server, Rachel, was amazing! She was very friendly and outgoing and offer many great suggestions. The menu was nice... Plenty of pan-Asian offerings, mostly centered around sushi, but pho and even a Chinese-American staple, orange chicken was on the menu. Plenty of small bites too, which makes it nice to be able to sip & nosh on their many cocktails and other adult beverages. Overall, the food we enjoyed was great! Fresh sushi... Very tasty broth in the pho and amazingly tender beef in it too. Definitely would return, especially to spend more time with the amazing and beautiful Rachel! read more

Best happy hour! Monday - Friday till 4-6. My husband and I got 2 non-alcoholic drinks (but also good drinks on their happy hour list), two apps and three sushi rolls for $45 - which in my opinion is a great deal. They have tons of fun sushi rolls and their spicy edamame is a must try. We always enjoy it! read more

We ordered gyoza and lobster dumplings which are not pictured because we inhaled them as soon they were presented! They were soooo good, 10/10. I ordered the Blue Ouster cult, the flavor was okay, 7/10. My friends ordered the Bento Box, which came with A LOT of food. So sharing is caring with that dish! Oh and how could I forget, we also ordered lychee martinis! 9.5/10, I wish it came with the fruit instead of the lemon peel for garnish. Overall the food and drinks were good! Make sure to arrive early because the place gets packed quick! read more

Came here for a work lunch on a Monday and it was surprisingly very busy! Our waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and even had a special roll made upon our request. The food was absolutely amazing and really large portions for the lunch bento box. While the soup & salad weren't my favorite, the sushi more than made up for it! We also got the pho beef rolls and warm green tea (which came with free refills throughout lunch). They seem to have so many unique specialty rolls that you don't see very many places and also plenty of non-sushi items for those who are vegetarian or don't eat raw fish. Located right in Scotts Addition, you will have to look for street parking (which isn't really a problem on weekdays). read more

Lucky AF has such an expansive sushi menu. It was almost hard to decide what to get. Started with the tuna tartare. Super tasty - the flavors all melted together. It was a little sweet, a little spicy and had the perfect crunch bc of the wonton. The portions were way bigger than I expected. We had a few different rolls. All amazing! Our waitress was attentive and helped with selections. Love the fact there are many seating options. We sat outside and it was perfect. Will definitely be back! read more

Delicious sushi, great vibes! Each roll we got was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I split 3 speciality rolls & a Cali roll and had about 7 pieces leftover. We easily could have split the platter between 3 of us!! For the speciality rolls, we got: Boujie AF Lucky AF Harley Quinn Highly recommend for great sushi in the city! *only knocked it down a star because our third guest got a Bento box and they brought out her order wrong (they gave her sesame chicken instead of the bento box). When we kindly corrected them, they seemed to not want to bring her her correct order. The conversation was extremely awkward. The did fix it! But the service with the mistake was weird. read more

When I think of Richmond, I do not think of great sushi. Especially since they are not super close to the beach. But, boy, was I wrong! For cocktails, I would 12/10 recommend the Midnight Marg. It is ACTIVATED CHARCOAL in it!! You will definitely not be thinking "I could of easily made this one myself." For appetizers, we only got their spicy edamame and took the rest of the chili sauce to go because it was spectacular. They created a sort-of jam; it was not your typically "red pepper garlic spicy sauce" on the beans. A suggestion I wish I thought of at the moment is to also order a plain roll like avocado or California or even rainbow and then use the additional saucey jam leftovers for the topping. For entrees, we got 4 rolls: Amirah, Get Naked, Lucky AF, Wonder Woman. Obviously, my most favorite is the Wonder Woman; because, again, it was DIFFERENT. Forbidden rice adds a bit of *charm* to the mix. Also, the mango hehe. The second best is the Amirah; it was also the prettiest and will give you holiday vibes. If you get the Lucky AF, make sure to order it as a singular plate so they can do a cool flower design with the sauces (we did not, but for future reference!). The location is pretty hip - I got lots of college vibes there :) And our waiter was spectacular! His energy made us hyped up and the music made us want to jump out of our chair and start dancing haha. read more

Everytime I'm in Richmond, I make sure to stop by! Lucky AF never disappoints! Luckily, I've been able to snag a table without a reservation the last few times, but they're honestly very busy all the time. I highly recommend the lobster dumplings as an appetizer! They're hearty flavor bombs that really wow me each time. I've really only tried the sushi here, but every roll I've had is delicious and fresh. In particular, the specialty rolls are quite hefty with great rice to fish ratios. The cherry on top is that despite them always being busy, the staff is sooo friendly and communicative. read more

Food was good. Spring rolls with pho beef were excellent. Haven't stopped talking about them three days later. Very creative.

Take advantage of the bundles or visit on a special occasion. Beautiful bar. read more

Loved it here! Everything was great particularly the Godzilla which was fun and the Aquaman. The only roll we tried but really didn't like was the blue fish truffle one but they permitted us to exchange it since we obviously only tasted it plus had ordered so many other kinds so that worked out. Felt like a regular cocktail so I got a strawberry rum basil smash drink which was delicious. I would totally go back read more

Lucky AF NEVER disappoints! You could say you'd be... lucky... to eat there. First and foremost the service is always great. I've sat at the bar, at a table, and gotten takeout - all have been great experiences. I have to say the Galaga Roll (from the happy hour menu) is my all time favorite roll - I get it every time I come, happy hour or not. I've also enjoyed several other rolls but this one takes the cake. I enjoy the variety of Lucky's diverse sushi roll menu as well. I've also had their seaweed salad, shrimp and vegetable tempura, and fried rice before. The seaweed salad was great, you kinda can't go wrong there. The shrimp and vegetable tempura was great but I did find that there was a ton of onion tempura and not enough sweet potato/zucchini in the mix. The fried rice was just OK. Their drink menu is pretty standard as far as wine and beer. Their house pinot grigio is pretty good and I haven't had any of the cocktails yet. Lucky's happy hour honestly has some of the best HH deals around, and they have it every day, too! read more
