Been looking for a good Chinese take out for awhile. Lucky Wok had good write ups so I gave it a try. Wasn't disappointed. Egg Rolls, chicken fried rice, shrimp with lobster sauce, Mongolian Beef and Szechuan Pork rounded out the meal. Excellent food, quick delivery. Bravo Lucky Wok. I'll be back. read more

This review is for a take out order on 18 Jan 2020. This popped up on my "Hot and New" filter, and we both had a craving for some Chinese food one night and gave this place a try. We ordered some pepper steak, orange chicken, and pork fried rice. After about 12 mins, we headed out to pick up our food, which was about 18-20 mins away. It's tucked away just south of Griegos and 4th, in a shopping strip. Inside is pretty small, with maybe 3 tables, but since it was a pick up, the food was ready when we arrived, and they included 2 fortune cookies, some silverware, napkins, soy sauce and some hot mustard. We got home and tried it out, and it was pretty good. Nothing special, but it will fill the Chinese food cravings. The orange chicken could've use more "orange" flavor, according to my wife, and it did have some thai chiles in it, which gave it a little spice. The chicken was good, and breaded like other Chinese places. The pepper steak was good. Again, nothing out of the ordinary, but above average. The meat was good, the green peppers were good. The pork fried rice, again, and I hate to keep saying this, was good. Overall, if you have a craving for Chinese, give this place a try. I think it's an above average Chinese spot, that will satisfy the cravings easily. read more

We keep taking the same vegetarian dishes and end up licking our fingers. I'd recommend combining any of the tofu dishes (Ma Po, Home Style...) with a Buddha dish. Tofu dishes come with delightful sauces but no veggies, whereas the Buddha dish is only veggies with a very light sauce, so it goes perfectly with the tofu stuff. Oh and yeah, portions are big, so make sure you take another vegetarian with you! read more

Cute, cozy and clean!! Eva (the owner) was superb, food was fast, hot and yummyBig portions at a reasonable price. Stop in for a quick meal or order togo.Lots of off street parking, and you can get delivered as well. Better than Panda Express in my opinion. Nice to see a new eatery in the North Valley. P.S. Eva told me they can add extra spice upon request... read more

Quite possible this is the best in the Q. Substitutes followed to a T. Nice job.

I bought take out from this small restaurant close to my home recently and was pleasantly surprised at the two lunch specials I got. While this is no San Francisco eatery, I loved the freshness and the quality ingredients. They accommodated my request for mild spice in the Szechwan beef dish. The sauces were light(I hate too much thickening in some Chinese restaurant food), not too salty, and pretty tasty. The price is right, too. Though this was my first visit, I will try them again,soon. Staff was nice, too. read more

I stopped into this new place this evening for dinner. There are maybe five tables, and a brisk carry-out business. The owner/manager has to run the house and also the phones and register, which means there can be a delay. If dining in, consider going a bit later after 7) when things slow down a bit. All that being said, it was worth the wait. The hot and sour soup was terrific. The cashew chicken was excellent as well - vegetables were fresh, chicken of good quality and the sauce quite good if just a bit sweet. Portions are large, so there is plenty to take home for another go. It's really nice to have this new option in the north valley. I'll definitely be back. read more

The food is decent, not spectacular. These people rarely answer their phone. Trying to call in orders is exhausting. If they are 30 minutes from closing, they don't answer the phone. Most times in general, they don't answer the phone. I've called dozens of times over the course of several months, and they haven't answered their phone. It's baffling from a customer care perspective and from a business perspective. read more

This small business has excellent customer service, great food, and an affordable extensive menu! I love seeing these small businesses pop up in our neighborhoods and this one needs to stick around! The server knew several customers orders when they walked in and he was very kind and even let me try one of the soups when I ordered the alternative, even though I didn't think I'd like it. I highly recommend people give this place a go! Not a lot of seating, but it's definitely worth sitting down and enjoying if you have a lunch hour because they're lunch menu is a steal! read more

Lucky Wok - Twice Cooked Pork, Fried Rice, Egg Drop Soup, and an Egg roll, all for $7.95!!! Amazing! - Chinese Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

This has become my favorite place to eat in my neighborhood. I really appreciate how fresh and tasty the food is. I've ordered both meat and vegetarian dishes and never been disappointed. The homestyle tofu and garlic eggplant are two of my favorite dishes. I appreciate the variety of veggies that come with the tasty tofu, and I had no idea eggplant could taste so buttery! I don't think I even like eggplant very much in normal situations. The spicy vegetarian dumplings are in a great, traditional sauce, and the orange chicken sauce is fragrant and has actual orange zest in it. They don't always have brown rice available as a substitute, but they try. Hahaha. The people who work here are all so nice--I always feel positively about my experience. The food works well for takeout - PIPING hot - and I look forward to trying it for dine-in when the pandemic is over! read more

With an ample amount of Chinese food options in the city, Lucky Wok is by far the best. Big portions, great prices and FAST!

It is what it is. American/Chinese fast food. Not my preferred menu but it's local, consistent and friendly enough. Order for pick up. No dining space to speak of. read more

For lunch this was a nice quick and affordable stop! I had heather honey chicken and my husband had Szechuan shrimp. The honey chicken was pretty good, could use more flavor. The shrimp had a lot of fresh sautéed veggies in it and was delicious! There was a super helpful server who was also very kind. The rice was not super great, it could use more flavor. Overall this was a good meal and I will be returning read more

Had takeout. Got orange chicken, veggie dumplings. The chicken was good. Dumplings good. Also in my order was chow fund noodles. I lived in Bay Area for twenty years. The thing I miss is good Asian cooking, I resigned myself to Panda Express and others around town. This takes me to the chow fund, the best since I left California, I am at peace now I can continue because I found the best noodles read more

A thought about takeout Chinese food during COVID-19: packaging makes an impression. When it comes to Chinese food, specifically, nothing beats those little white boxes with wire handles. I've yet to find any restaurant in the 505 that serves takeout in such containers, but to me they're the everyday equivalent to the Mary Poppins Magic Bag: the more you dig, the more you find. It's truly shocking to discover not one, but two meals in a tiny carton, same goes for the rice. If I could suggest just one thing to my new nearby favorite American Chinese eatery, Lucky Wok, it would be to ditch the styrofoam containers -- we won't dog the price uptick -- for the ethnically anticipated packaging du jour. (Plus, it'll score big bonus points for us "eco-minded" consumers who feel like we're doing the earth a good turn by sending less trash to the landfill, even if we're driving the meal home in an SUV.) Your need-to-know: this is solid American Chinese food. I'll explore the menu at greater detail in the coming months, but this is the joint I wish I had in my backyard. Albuquerque doesn't represent in the Chinese food category and this spot doesn't attempt to reinvent the norm, but from my explorations into safe, simple dishes like cashew chicken and fried rice, and the anticipated soups and egg rolls, alongside an executed online ordering system (choose your pickup time, expect steaming styrofoam plates), this is real-deal American Chinese. Fresh ingredients, friendly and efficient, I'm glad this place is (negligibly) just down the road. read more

At first I saw the place and said to myself "just a average place" but boy was I wrong there this place is the best. You can never go wrong with this place I left that place full satisfied like the Chinese is the best, There prices are so good and so worth it. If you never tried this place....your missing out and missing on the best place and the service has always been good I have nothing but love for the place read more

Not just another Americanized strip mall forgettable experience. They are very willing to customize your order and make things "off menu." Real chicken wings, not the pre-frozen kind. They actually butchered a whole chicken. So juicy and flavorful. Best kind of hole-in-the-wall. Reminds me of growing up in NYC. read more

My boyfriend and I just moved to ABQ from DFW and we were looking for our new favorite Chinese takeout place that delivered via UberEats and we think this may be the one! We ordered the veggie egg rolls, spicy chicken dumplings, honey chicken, and sesame chicken. We received all of that plus sweet and sour sauce for the egg rolls, and a big box of white rice. Everything arrived at warm and fresh, and every single thing tasted great. Portion sizes are huge for what you're paying for. We still have much of it left over to use another day. Very tasty place and we will definitely become regulars now if it stays this good! read more

Egg drop soup tastes like watery corn and pepper soup. Rice is undercooked. Also, it's grainy, more like cous cous. Nothing in the fried rice; such as peas, carrots, or egg. Just rice. Crab Rangoon is so hard you might break a tooth on it. I ordered moo goo gai pan. I don't know what "meat" they're using. Chicken had a weird corttage cheese-like texture. It crumbles in your mouth, and doesn't seem cooked. Steamed, maybe? And yes, if you're wondering: steamed meat is every bit as appetizing as it sounds. Didn't look or taste like chicken. Sauce was flavorless except for salt, and there was too much of that. Mushrooms were sparse and paper thin. Too many carrots and too much celery. Egg roll was all wrapper, no filling. (You don't need 4 layers of wrap: just makes the inside one raw. Gross!) Not even one good bite out of 5 dishes. Service was terse, and the ambiance they seem to be going for is best described as "dirty cafeteria." read more

The food was delivered in a timely manner, and the portions were very generous. I ordered the sesame noodles, baby bok choy, and crab rangoon. All three dishes were delicious! read more

I wish I had a better review. Tonight we ordered from Lucky Wok for the 2nd and last time. It's the closest Chinese restaurant in my 'hood. We ordered Beef Chop Suey, Veg Lo Mein, Veg Egg Foo Yong. There were lots of vegetables, which is great. That being said flavor was completely missing. When I put the Beef Chop Suey on my rice it did not change the flavor of the rice and that is wrong. I've read reviews from others who have had a better experience than we did. I did not spend my childhood in ABQ and in my childhood we had our neighborhood place called Bamboo House, that is my benchmark. read more

The North Valley needed this bad. Lucky Wok is AWESOME for take out! Reason being, they pack your meal nice and neat. They have some pretty good lunch specials. One day, I ordered three different ones to try what they had (I saved the rest for dinner). The orange chicken and the cashew chicken were my faves. I think the egg drop soup is better than the wonton soup and I didn't care too much for their egg rolls. I had a good experience there and would recommend. read more

Awesome = When you order a Baby Bok Choy and it is *filled with ginger and garlic.

One of our favorite places to order! Peppered steak, Mongolian beef, and OMG the spicy chicken dumplings. Highly recommend and we're very picky with our Chinese food. read more

We tried the orange chicken and walnut shrimp, everything was delicious, the best I've had for a long time now. They have a very extensive menu, including things that aren't everywhere. read more

Have it delivered, was still nice and hot when it arrived. Food was great, they had Chow Fun which is hard to find. Lots of veggies, not too salty and good portions. Would recommend. read more

I've recently moved from the San Francisco area, where we have many great Chinese restaurants..but I have to tell THIS is some of the Best Chinese food I'vw ever had! It's fresh, sauces aren't too heavy and the service is excellent! The wonton soup is delicious, rich broth, with plenty of wontons and fresh vegies. Their duck..WOW! A must try. I can't wait to try some other things off their menu. read more

Excellent Chinese takeout and delivery in the north valley. I enjoyed the food and it was fairly quick.

Hands down the best Chinese place in town. I will keep going here for sure. I had the Mongolian beef and it taste great. Service was great as well. The place is small with a few tables but it was not claustrophobic. You have the option to eat in or order take out. As I was sitting there enjoying my meal it seemed like they get a lot of take out calls. Everyone eating in also commented on how great this little place is. I can definitely see another location in their future. If you're in the mood for Chinese food definitely check this place out! read more

So yummy! I've been going to the nail shop next door for many years and have seen a few food places in this location come and go. Curious, I went in to check it out. Glad I did!!! The Szechuan chicken is AMAZING!! We also got pork fried rice and sweet and sour chicken. My kiddos loved their chicken and the fried rice was great! We will definitely be back! read more

I tried this place out about two weeks after the opened. The service is great! The food was good but one of the plates we had was a little on the salty side. I would say it's one of the more price Chinese place I've gone to in town. read more

Yummy Singapore noodles. Extra spicy. Yum! A little expensive but everything is expensive these days. Definitely coming back.

We don't eat anywhere else. I think the cook knows my husband by now, because we're always ordering from here! Thee best thus far and we've tried many dishes they serve and they're so fresh and the workers are friendly and the lunch combos you can never go wrong with. Don't knock it til you try it! Delicious! read more

Very good! What a treat during all this staying at home. I ordered the 3 meat spicy stir fry, chicken wings, curry and potstickers. All were very tasty, packaged neatly and arrived on time. My favorite is Rising Star Chinese right now, but they are not offering delivery. So in a pinch I ordered from Lucky won and was really pleased. Only complaint was the chicken wings still had "hairs" on them..and a bit overcooked, but they were still ok. They don't use too much salt, sugar and grease in their food, so it's much better than a lot of the other places that serve "gloppy" dishes. Potstickers were awesome! read more

Above average Chinese for Albuquerque. I would recommend them and we will be going back.

Not good. In their defense I do have very high Chinese food standards. I ordered twice from here and both times the food was almost inedible. Very bland read more

First time here. Trying to find a new place to eat since China City is under new owners. We had the beef chow mein and beef egg foo young. Good food. Great service, they don't mind explaining menu items. Prices are good for big portions. Will be back. read more

Dumplings were in a spicy sauce but tasted like I was eating sweet sauce, no spice whatsoever. Kung pao lacked flavor and had asparagus in it? Odd. And the wontons with pork made me sick! read more

Outstanding food and fast service. The employees are friendly and courteous. The best Chinese food I've had in a long time. I highly recommend LUCKY WOW. read more

They take forever to prepare your food even after saying it'll be done at a certain time!!!!
