My husband and I both ordered the bento boxes which offer SO much food for the price. Everything was really good except the proteins were both a little underwhelming. The flavor was good but not great. Next time we will probably try one of the entrees instead. The real star of our meal was the lobster dumplings. I saw they were highly recommended on Yelp but $16 for an appetizer made me hesitant. I'm so glad we got them because they really were that good. There was a 30 minute wait when we arrived around dinner time but we were able to sit on the patio immediately. It was a 90 degree day but we got a table next to the fan which made it much more tolerable. Our 7 month old tried most of the items in our bento box. She even liked the miso soup which most of us weren't a fan of. I would recommend sitting outside if you have littles. 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

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

I thought this place was just "OK". The service and presentation was great, but the food was mid. My sesame chicken was by far the best thing on the platter. Everything else was pretty bland and mushy. The fried rice was absolutely nothing to write home about, and had parts that werent even mixed in fully with soy sauce. Probs would try another spot before coming back here read more

I should be embarrassed to say I went here 3 times this week. The Superman roll and the Batman roll are PHENOMENAL. This time around I also tried the lobster dumplings and the kids bento box which comes with pork dumplings, a spring roll and sesame chicken. The spring rolls are different but I like them; they have American cheese inside as well as shrimp and imitation crab meat but the flavors come together nicely. This is officially my local sushi spot and I can't wait to try the other menu items! read more

The sushi here is outstanding. Highly recommend. Has to be one of my new favorite spots.

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 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

Our server was fantastic and very kind! I got the teapot which was super fun and a great deal for $4 - good selection of tea! The food was good as well, I got a sushi roll and gyoza. Price is decent. Ambience isn't bad, but isn't particularly enticing - definitely a place you go for the food and not the vibe. It's also located in Scotts Addition which is a pretty boring ugly millennial part of town. 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

Really like this place, food is Amazing, Service is second to none, and it is a hip place with lots of energy and young people.

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 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 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.

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

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.

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

Lucky AF has a darker ambiance perfect for smaller groups, pairs, or individuals to dine in but expect to have to make a reservation or walk for a table on busier nights. Their takeout opinion is just as good but wait can be a little longer on busy nights so I would recommend ordering ahead. I usually order the botan ebi and blue oyster cult roll which has yet to disappoint. They have many creative options and rolls, especially great for those who like cooked sushi. 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

They have tons of fun sushi rolls and their spicy edamame is a must try. We always enjoy it! 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

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
