For sure the best Thai/Cambodian restaurant in Elkhart! They don't use MSG in their food, and everything is fresh right off the pan! Very great prices for the portion of food you get. My favorite dish would be the Tom Yum soup. It's hot and sour and definitely hits the spot when I'm feeling sick. The employees are very friendly and genuinely love getting to know their customers. read more

I can't speak enough about how much I love Lucky's. Stopped here in the middle of a road trip based on the Yelp reviews. Plus I had to see what a donut & Thai food combination restaurant was like. We ordered pad Thai and donuts to go and were downright overwhelmed at how good both were. More than that, the staff was amazing. We met Lucky in person and he is so fun, energetic, and clearly loves his job. It was good enough that we stopped on the way back home from the road trip. Just as good the second time! read more

Nice little place to stop by and try out I've only had the pad Thai and one other dish there forgot what it was but I'm someone who usually sticks ordering the same thing for a while if I really like it and the boba tea is good too I travel for work so not from the area and discovered this place merely on the way to the lowes close by to get supplies for the new job and decided to stop by and enjoyed it since read more

This is a fantastic hidden gem in Elkhart! The inside of the restaurant is strange (it used to be a donut shop) but every single thing we have ordered from them is great. Their sweet and sour chicken is the best, A++. Pad thai, cashew chicken (spicy!), chicken drummets, egg rolls, everything has been great. They make their own homemade sweet and sour sauce and hot sauce and both are awesome. read more

That shrimp pad thai was so Delicious. I think this just became my favorite shrimp pad thai. Smelled so good in my car when I took it to go. Was in the area and if I come back, I will definitely drop by to get the pad thai again. read more

See all

I bought my house in 2013 right off Bristol street across from The Bristol Café. For the first year I drove by ( at that time it was called Lucky's Donut) thinking I should buy some donuts sometime. I had no idea they even served Chinese food. It was probably a year or two after I moved that I finally decided to try the food. I am so happy that I did because I was not disappointed. This is probably the best Thai/Chinese food I have ever had. My parents live in Michigan and they tried it and love it too. Now they only want to eat Lucky's when they come down and visit. Everything I have tried has been delicious. So don't drive past this gem without giving it a try, you won't regret it. read more

Donuts and pad thai under the same roof? And both are good? And its cheap? Sold! For $5.50, you can get the medium pad Thai (which is pretty big), cooked to the spiciness you order. I went with 20 mopeders, and we all got our food within a half hour. In a shop this small, that was impressive. And because we were there at closing, the owner gave each of us a free doughnut. Winner! read more

I was a little apprehensive ordering Thai at a donut shop, but I have to say... "It's the Bomb" The Spicy Pad Thai is both affordable and WOW, the portion size is huge! Now onto the taste.... I have to say, it's like a huge flavor bomb going off in your mouth and then comes the heat. It's a lingering, but not obnoxious burn. Great Job guys! read more

Great Chinese food. Lucky Donuts have Chinese food, bubble tea, and donuts. A good place to dine in and hangout with friends or family. I would recommend the Chicken Tenders. The tenders are crispy, hot, and delicious! Also the egg rolls are great. Note: the drinks you will need to pay for each can, or each 5 oz. read more

Loved their pad thai and egg rolls! Now that we live on the border of Elkhart so it feels we have to drive out of the way to get gpod food on Mishawka! Love that this shop is nearby!!!! I can not wait to try the rest of their menu! read more

A Chinese restaurant that also serves donuts. That's pretty cool. The family who runs a restaurant is one of the nicest families I've ever met. The food is always hot, accurate, and very flavorful. It is a very small restaurant so do not take a party of 15 because there will be nowhere for you to sit. read more

I would have had no idea to go here if it weren't for my friends who kept raving about their food. Lucky Donuts has Thai Food? WTF, I know its very odd, but kinda charming too. I wouldnt have thought to go on my own but I gave it a shot and will definitely go back to try more of their menu! Overall it was excellent, not the best Pad Thai I have ever had but up near the top of all the times I have eaten it, very very good. Very friendly people working there and very inexpensive as well $6-7 for a lot of food, next time you are in Elkhart redeem the whole experience of having to be in Elkhart by eating at Lucky Donuts! read more

We first ordered the egg rolls. Delicious. Served hot and tasty either by themselves or even with their sweet and sour which has a nice hint of ginger. My wife had the Pad Thai with shrimp. Tasted as good as we had while traveling to Thailand this last August. Spot on delicious. I had the Padang which was excellent as well. The chicken was tender, the vegetables crisp yet cooked and the sauce was creamy with all the taste of ginger, coconut and curru. I asked for it to be spicy and it was so only ask for this if you like it like I do. Bit spicy for my wife but loved it. We both ordered the medium portion and it was big so their large must be really huge. The only reason it is not a five star is that the decor is dated and not well kept up and distracts from the food a bit. If they would invest in a Thai themed decor this place would be a five star. If you know and love Thai food or want to try good Thai food, stop by this establishment. P.S. They do serve donuts but we did not order any as Thai food was my focus. :) read more

Lucky’s - Pad Thai with shrimp. Just like in Thailand. - Thai Near Me - Elkhart, Indiana

Near the top of my list of Elkhart establishments. Great place to get good food, great portion sizes, and fantastic service. I love the pad Thai and the governors chicken. The donuts are also on point. read more

I have driven by Lucky Donuts for a while now. This is my second month here in Elkhart, and the people here are friendly. But in searching for a place to eat one of my friends told me about Lucky Donuts, he said, you have to try the Governor's Chicken. So I made my way over to try the Governo's Chicken. I asked for an order on The Governor's Chicken with fried rice, and I was greeted with a big smile from all of the staff. The Governor's Chicken was amazing and the warm welcome from this family owned restaurant was the best. The food tastes great. Kudos to the chef. read more

Amazing tai food. Pho noodle soup is off the charts good! If you like tai food Nd you make the stop here, you will be ruined from any other tai place. Inexpensive, quick and great service! Must stop. Crazy but no donuts now, only great tai food! read more

First of all, their name just cracks me up. I have never seen a Thai place that also makes donuts! I heard they bought an old Dunkin Donuts location and kept on making donuts. Why not, right? At first, I was really excited to find a Thai place in Elkhart. I absolutely love Thai food, and was ready to make Lucky Donuts my go-to whenever the craving hit. I figured getting their Pad Thai was a good way to see how they compared to other Thai restaurants. The Pad Thai was... okay. It was pretty dry, not a lot of nuts, and not as flavorful as I was hoping. The price isn't bad, and the portion size is pretty generous for what it is. They prepare the food pretty quickly, which was great since my friend and I were on a quick lunch break and needed take-out. All in all, not bad. I'm willing to go back and try their Panang curry and see if that makes me change my mind. read more

I only got food here once and it will be the only time. It was cold and nasty. My fiance swears he's always gotten good food here, but he admitted that the food was particularly off on that visit. It was enough to keep me from going back. read more

The only place for take out in Michiana. Everything I have tried from this place is dealicous. My favorite is the pad Thai or shrimp love mein. "It's da bomb" read more

Yummy! Check this place out. Several beverage options and great food. The staff is very friendly. It is definitely a little divey with outdated furniture and building. read more

The pad Thai is the best we've had, and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant decor is basic, but the food is not. Looking forward to trying more from the menu. read more

Absolutely out of this world! The pad Thai was amazing and the portion size was huge! read more

Lucky’s - Chicken Pad Thai. This was amazing! Such great peanut flavor and the texture of the pad Thai was to die for! - Thai Near Me - Elkhart, Indiana

Ummmm, yup this is the locals go to place for quality eats. Everything is good, service is fast and friendly. Love Lucky's!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Great deals, great donuts, even better people! 10/10 would recommend :)

My visit had nothing to with covid. The food was awful! I ended up throwing it away. I couldn't even go back to do a refund because I needed to get back to work. What I ordered is not what I got and I'll definitely not be returning. This was an expensive lunch break that I couldn't even eat. read more

Stopped for lunch yesterday and got the medium lo mien noodles with beef and was amazed at the amount for the price and it was delicious. I will definitely be back. read more

It is decent for take out Thai food. It is a lot better then another Lucky's I already reviewed. The food is delicious. I like the Combo Lo Mein, the Pad Thai, the Egg Rolls. Often while waiting for my food to cook I get a doughnut. Cannot beat that! The only problem is they close early. read more

Can't say enough about the great food. The Pad Thai is always consistently great, and the fried rice is the best around. Our office picks up donuts there all the time... The only issue is that some days of the week, they're out of their fantastic donuts by 9am. Call first before going. read more

I enjoyed my dinner from here this past weekend! I got the beef pad Thai and the governors chicken and cream cheese wontons and the egg rolls. I was happy with the taste and quality as well as the pricing. My only complaint was that they were out of the red sauce to dip the egg rolls and wontons in which I would have preferred to know when ordering as I am a dipper. But I love the customer service they genuinely care if you are happy or not and you can tell they appreciate your business... read more

Pretty good pad thai, especially considering I was not expecting to find a thai restaurant in Elkhart, Indiana. I dont think my lunch special plus drink was more than 8$. The girl at the counter was sweet and helpful! Would definitely return read more

A favorite local restaurant of mine. Yes the donuts are good, but the thai food also served here is often over looked. The thai food is the BEST in this area. Those who work here are extremely welcoming. read more

This place would be easy to dismiss as it doesn't look like much. But looks are very deceiving. This family run place is simply fantastic. The family is so nice and warm and the food is really good. My wife and kids loved the wings and fried rice. They were so good. I got the pad Thai and was happy with it. All around a resounding endorsement. And if order more than $30 worth of food you get a dozen of amazing donuts. This place is great and I would recommend to any Thai food lover. read more

Delicious!!! To be honest, the first few times we drove past this establishment we swore we would never eat there.... Now it's the ONLY place in Elkhart County that we'll order Asian cuisine from! (Talk about eating your words. Haha!) Their tofu selection is amazing, their sweet and sour chicken is by far the best we've tasted ever, I especially enjoy their curry and their Pad Thai can't be beat. I guarantee if you try this place you will not be disappointed. read more

Ironic that the a joint called the Lucky Donut is known to have "It's the bomb" pad thai. Pad Thai being my default choice when dining out at a Thai restaurant, I had to give this place a try, so I ordered the chicken pad thai. The portions were as large as everyone had previously stated in their reviews. There were two things that stuck out to me about the pad thai: the noodles and the toppings. I was a bit offset by the coloring of the noodles, as they were almost a bright orange, but they had been cooked perfectly. The taste was of definite pad thai, but it was overly sweet, which makes sense because they make donuts, right? Not a favorite of sweet meals though, since desserts and a mid-course should be separate. Next, the toppings were actually were the main star that shined through the dish. The sweetness was lightened a bit with the large amount of green onions, peanuts, and veggies. I really liked this aspect of the dish. I had dined in, so I feel that I became a bit more biased in wanting to up a few more stars into this review. The person taking orders was extremely nice and welcoming, as he immediately wanted to offer free samples of any dish that I had shown interest in. In addition, he welcomed me to dine in, even though it was closing time. The overall atmosphere is more of a hole-in-the-wall feel and of a locally-owned joint. I do not know if I want to come back for the dishes.....maybe a few donuts? Who knows, maybe I will come back when I am itching to find what's "the bomb" in Elkhart. read more

big fan of the tofu pad thai. this is Secret Souvenir's official meeting place. so good we wrote a Lucky's Donut theme song. ps: the sign says Lucky's Donut, but they have more than 1. usually. read more

Great food great service. It is a pleasure to go there. I ask them to surprise me and I have never been disappointed.

Pretty rude. Minimum of $5 purchase to use credit/debit and doesn't take american express. Can't say how the food was because I never got to eat any.... Cheap companies get cheap reviews. read more

This place is an absolute gem of a restaurant. Where else can you get donuts and delicious Asian cuisine at the same time? Very affordable, as well. I'm a regular as I live a few blocks away, and I've had things "freed" to me as a result. Pop, a half dozen donuts, or a free upgrade from medium to large. "I free that to you" are my favorite words ever. read more

Such a bang for your buck!!! My fiancé and I tried their pho and not only was it half the price of another local pho place but tasted so much better! We also got 5 egg rolls with the house-made sweet and sour and it was delicious! All that food for less than $20. Definitely will be going back very soon. read more

It's not winning any awards and is no haute cuisine, but it satisfies a craving. Curries are good, though if you get chicken in anything it will almost certainly be overcooked and rubbery (especially if in a curry or soup). Mekatung noodles are about the only non-curry dish I get. If you are craving Governor's chicken, they have it, but it is quite sweet with a ketchup type base flavor. The fried spring rolls are also good, I mean...they're fried! I suspect some help from MSG but they still hit the spot at the moment. read more
