    Salt and pepper eggplant. Recommend
    Alicia W.

    It was really busy when we went in there this time. There was a huge party in the back and the plates of food they were bringing to them looked amazing. There was some lobster dish they had that is a special order. They were also starting karaoke when we left so it was getting loud, and they were ha ing a great time. We enjoyed our dinner too. We ordered the house fried rice, the walnut shrimp, the salt and pepper eggplant, and asparagus beef. Everything was amazing. The service was good, very attentive staff, and very nice. We will continue to go back there, and now for the new dish we tried this time the salt and pepper eggplant. It was so good. They bread and fry the eggplant. I was pleasantly surprised.

    Spare Ribs
    Nevaeh S.

    We came here on Christmas Day, called day of to make sure they were open but no reservation was needed. We heard good reviews about the food so decided to try this place out. Stopped by around 12PM as a party of 5 and were greeted and seated immediately. We were placed at a table of 4 with an extra single table and a chair to make it fit. We did ask to be moved to a round table to better accommodate us but there was a graduation ceremony so we had to stay at the table we were at. Space itself isn't too tight, large windows so lots of natural light comes in as well. They weren't too busy but it did take awhile for them to take our order and for our food to come. Prices to portion sizes are reasonable and food was tasty, I really enjoyed the spare ribs out of everything we ordered. It was definitely the best I've tried. Overall experience was okay, it was nice to be able to come in on a holiday and enjoy a meal. Food was tasty as well so I wouldn't mind coming here again. I do recommend if you're looking to try a different Chinese spot.

    Milk Tea and Yuen Yeung served in the iconic B&W branded ceramics
    Samuel L.

    ​If you're looking for a taste of Hong Kong, this is it. The Yuen Yeung (half milk tea, half coffee) served in those iconic Black & White cups is a creamy, caffeinated dream. It's the kind of drink that makes you feel instantly cooler and more worldly. Paired with the beef stew and wonton noodle soup, it was a truly epic meal. The beef was rich and deeply flavorful, and the wontons were perfectly seasoned. It's comfort food at its finest. The ambiance here is the perfect complement to the food. The walls, plastered with nostalgic '90s Hong Kong street scenes, instantly transport you. It feels less like a restaurant and more like a time machine, making the classic beef stew wonton noodles soup and iconic coffee-tea combo taste even more authentic.

    Salt and pepper pork belly, *chef's kiss*
    Anthony W.

    Pocket finally has a decent Chinese restaurant and I'm glad. The old new china was ok but not quite good enough to make me return. Now that we have New China 2.0, I'm a repeat customer! They have some unusual dishes that were really good, such as the salt and pepper pork belly and salt and pepper eggplant. They fry them up nice and crispy and still juicy and moist inside. Definitely order this if you need a recommendation. They make a good fried rice too and I can tell their wok is super hot. Once I had the pineapple bun with butter (bo loh yau) and it was super hot and toasty and a nice taste of Hong Kong. Oh yes, their steamed pork patty with salted fish was very good and will give you that comfort food feeling you crave. The mongolian beef was also solid. Service is pretty good on the relative Chinese restaurant service scale. The interior has walls totally decked out with Hong Kong scenes which I really liked. The crowd is very eclectic and it feels very much like a neighborhood restaurant.

    Ribs were not tender at all, a lil under cooked to tough. Wings were yum, could use some seasoning. Loved the black mushrooms and greens. I enjoy getting food here, lovely staff. Love the decorum.

    Peking Duck, steam rice, Hainan Chicken

    This neighborhood restaurant served very tasty, authentic Cantonese dishes. We were a party of 15 and essentially the only ones in the restaurant. Service was friendly and prompt. We will be cal to try other dishes. Our pre order Chinese New Year luncheon: Crab meat with fish maw Peking Duck Steam founder/Sea Bass Honey Walnut Shrimp Black mushroom with snap peas Salt pepper short ribs Clay pot - lamb stew Pea sprouts with garlic Hainan Chicken Salt fish fried rice Mapo tofu Stream rice Soy sauce chow mein (ordered but forgot to prepare)

    There is new management since my last review a few years ago and they have done a 180. Previously looked like a storage room, not anymore. Ambiance This place has been remodeled. Nice bright scenes on the wall, large tv. Place is spotless. Rate 5 Customer Service Ordered to go, person on phone pleasant and pleasant when I picked up. The waitress identified some of her favorite dishes for future visits. Vegetable Chicken Generous portion of chicken and vegetable medley. Think it had brown sauce very tasty. Rate 5 War Won Ton Generous serving. Good flavor. Take home order has entire dish in one container. Got very little broth. Maybe have an extra container for broth. Rate 4 Can hardly wait to try shrimp foo young next time.

    This place is so amazing food was delicious and service was fast and efficient you definitely feel like you in New china coming here !!!

    Chicken chow mein & 5. General Chicken

    11/27/25 Very disappointed with the food. It was honestly nasty. Tasted very odd. The chomein was decent. General chicken was nasty & the wonton in chili oil was disgustingly. I spent $45 on these 3 items. For that price I expect better quality food. I will not be coming here again. Very very disappointed .....

    Hair found in my takeout food. It's disgusting.
    Yel C.

    Zero if it was an option. I ordered it through grubhub but because I already left an earlier review, I can't add. I ordered the vegetarian beep and broccoli. I found a hair strand. It's disgusting. Don't eat here. I keep giving it a chance but that's gross. No it's not mine because mine is black and thick strands. This is fine that's gray and brown on bottom half. YUCK!

    Tinah Y.

    Came here for the first time and I loved it! I have not laughed so hard in a long time and it's all due to the hospitality of the owner and his sister! Thank you Winnie and Danny for the laughs!!!! Wanna learn more about Hong Kong, come see Winnie and enjoy some good Chinese food. They have two menu; a Chinese menu and a regular menu. The difference is that some of the stuff on the Chinese menu, most people are not familiar with. The food was great and the service was even better! The owners go around and socialize with everyone; it really gives you that wholesome feel at home belonging!

    First time experiencing the menu outside of Dim Sum. Here are my notes:…read more Special Fried Rice in Claypot - Refreshing fried rice due to the addition of the cilantro. You can taste the umami from the roe and other ingredients that I am not entirely sure are but taste familiar. I enjoyed and loved it. Mapo Tofu - Firm Tofu and good sauce. Although I do enjoy more of a Sichuan-style spicy mapo tofu (with the very numbing taste), I still found this mapo tofu delicious as you can taste the flavor of the pork and sauce coating the tofu. 2 Entree BBQ Platter: Roast Duck and Empress chicken - I'm biased towards roast duck. I love roast duck so any roast duck is good to me. Not a lot of comment on the duck. However, the Empress Chicken is nicely seasoned with the whatever broth they cooked it in. One of the few Empress Chickens where I can enjoy it without the scallion-ginger oil, but the scallion-ginger oil still elevates this Chicken to a higher level. Congee with Pork and Preserved Egg - Comforting and triggers a lot of nostalgic feelings for me. I didn't have to add too much additional soy sauce or chili sauce because the congee has a great base flavor. Preserved egg and pork weren't too chunky, rice was not too "mushy", and the overall congee was in a good thickness to create a nice mouth feel for each bite. Will visit again to try the other dishes.

Drinks aren't rated, as they don't sell house cocktails (though they sell a small selection of beers and wines). All-in-all a solid menu. The dilemma is that we generally felt unwelcome. We came by on a Sunday evening at 6:30 pm (and paid and left by 8:20 pm which is 10 minutes before closing). We were a party of 8 with diverse backgrounds, and with exception to one server (a woman wearing red who was maybe a manager), the staff just weren't friendly toward us. I will say that one woman in red was so kind. She made sure to say "bye" as we left. I will add one of my friends mistakenly tried to take a pair of chopsticks (as they are set on the table in a paper slip). She didn't realize they were store owned/reusable vs throwaway. She quickly apologized, but that became the final straw of awkwardness with the staff. The food was genuinely great with appropriate prices, so I may give it another shot down the road as a date night option.

On my latest visit it was a very busy Sunday, but I was able to place an order for take-out and then wait in my car for the order to be ready.

I saw a couple of other Elites dining in when I was ordering, but it was so busy I couldn't properly say hi, so "HI DAVID AND EVA!" I'll have to keep an eye out for their next review, because whatever they had looked delish! I waited in the car for a bit and then when the order still needed a few more minutes I popped into the dollar store next door to kill a bit more time. Before I knew it my order was ready to go. They packed everything really nicely and we served it up as soon as we got home. Their rice noodle rolls are so flavorful and I love the sweet, salty and savory sauce that comes with it. The noodles are really filling, and the dishes we got would be enough food for 2-4 people depending on how hungry you are. We ate the rice rolls right away and then had leftover green beans and beef and mushrooms for lunch today. The green beans were fresh and had a great garlic flavor, without it being too much. The Beef and Mushrooms was great, the beef was tender and flavorful and the mushrooms soaked up all the sauce. There were also green beans in this dish, which was a perfect addition. I really need to dine in soon for the full experience, but take-out has always been a win for me.

However, be careful with the specials that are offered when you first sit down. Our waitress, Ling, recommended a "combo" for $30 that included fish bone porridge and pan-fried noodles with fish. The noodles tasted fine, but the portion was quite small. The fish bone porridge was extremely bland--I could barely taste any fish. After looking at the regular menu, I noticed that a plain porridge costs about $5, and a similar pan-fried noodle dish is only around $14-15. Based on those menu prices, the $30 combo did not seem to offer good value and felt significantly overpriced. I would definitely recommend the restaurant for its food, but I also recommend checking the menu prices before accepting any off-menu or verbally recommended specials so you know exactly what you're paying for.

    Adj: dependably and predictably ok Chinese food…read more We've been coming here for Chinese meals both sit down and take out from when they used to be Holiday Villa. That was decades ago. About 10 or so years ago, they changed ownership or rather they went through what seems like several changes and then they became Lucky Jade which is kind of a chain but not exactly. I recall at one time, the workers wear shirts that look kind of like uniforms with another store's name on the back with address and phone numbers, so apparently Lucky Jade is owned by people who also own a few other Chinese restaurants but not by the same exact name. In any case, Chinese food can be pretty formulaic, so it's not really that hard to have consistency as long as the cooks know how to make common standard dishes, the taste generally would not be too different. This is true for Lucky Jade. We had take out recently and got a chow fun, a chow mein, and a broccoli beef. The first was quite tasty, on the oily side but I've not found any place able to make it not too oily and still yummy so it's necessary for this dish. Then there's the chow mein, this one was not good. Kind of non descript and the oil tasted oil (reused). Not too greasy which is my biggest complaint of chow mein from elsewhere like New Lai Wah, but again, this did not taste fresh. Finally, the broccoli beef was overcooked. Broccoli was not quite mushy but almost, still a little bit of crunch but you can see they were turning yellow. And the beef was so chemically tenderized (hopefully only with baking soda and not worse) bc it was also almost mushy. Wasn't cheap either, but on par with other Chinese restaurants around here for take out. I think I'll just tell my in laws they can just order from Bel Air Hot Chinese food deli on Florin Rd which is in the same plaza and they'd pay less and the food would actually taste better with fresher oil (probably not reused) and better quality beef that doesn't need to be tenderized to a questionable quality. Overall, not too good.

    ok- how can a prior review go from a 4 star to a 2 star in less than a month? Here is my…read moreexplanation. We had some friends over and decided to grab some traditional and non traditional Chinese cuisine for lunch. Hence we opted to dine at Lucky Jade for their diverse menu, accommodations to dishes due to allergy constraints, and fast service. So what did we order: 1) chicken teriyaki with sauce on the side: the entree arrived covered with teriyaki sauce. What was troubling, the server was trying to have our diner accept the kitchens mistake of covering the chicken with sauce..even when our diner refused, the server tried again to convince our diner to accept this dish. finally, the head wait staff told the server to take the item back to the kitchen. However, when the dish returned, the chicken was no longer grilled but fried. I hope the kitchen didn't rinsed the chicken off of the teriyaki sauce and deep fried the same chicken instead of grilling a fresh piece of chicken. Plus, our diners bowl of rice was forgotten and we had to remind the wait staff. 2) broccoli chicken w/fried rice: it was your basic american chinese dish and our diner only orders chinese combo plates. So he had no complaints. 3) Green bean chicken in black bean sauce: very nice black bean flavor, tender moist chicken but half of the green beans were old and stringy. The prep cook needed better prepping in food preparation- please toss out old green beans before the cooks prepare an entree- what was sad, this dish is always exceptionally well prepared in the past. Not today. 4) fried smelt: very good. no complaints on this dish. 5) chicken and asparagus in garlic sauce: moist chicken but again the prepping of the asparagus was lacking. When our wait staff informed us that they had fresh asparagus- we jumped to her reco. Unfortunately, this dish was served with the woody bottom ends of the asparagus. Which is tough, stringy, and just inedible. Plus, our dishes arrived at different times- in some cases 5-10 minutes apart. Perhaps the Kitchen staff had communication and food prep issues today. Not sure, but i would not recommend dining here on a Sunday. Perhaps the "B or C" team of cooks and prep cooks were definitely working tonight. And the wait staff should have caught the mistake from the kitchen and never served that dish...let alone, trying to push a dish that was not properly prepared or requested by the diner. That is also unacceptable. sorry no pics. Would I return....not sure now.

    Giant banquet hall!…read more Huge, traditional banquet-style restaurant known for Cantonese seafood and push-cart dim sum on weekends. The dining room is massive and feels like a giant wedding/event hall. The dim sum is authentic and delicious: har gow, siu mai, bao, rice noodle rolls, chicken feet, plus claypot dishes, gai-lan, house special fried rice, and Chinese string beans with chicken. Everything we tried had great flavor and wasn't overly oily. The complimentary dessert, though, was a miss: basically egg whites with sugar. Service is pretty basic and can be hectic. You sometimes have to wave someone down for tea refills or other requests, and staff weren't especially courteous. Free parking in the complex, but it can be tough to find a spot during meal times.

I would have to say the best part of this restaurant is that they still push carts of food, which is something I know that a lot of places stopped implementing.
