    Our best meal here out of 5x visits. Disappointed the lamb flat noodle dish was no longer on the menu however the dishes we chose this time were delicious. Tofu tempura, beans, crab and lamb baos and chicken wings. Ginger beer was too sweet for both of us. Waiter did a great job considering he was the only one on tonight.

    Lucky Bao was absolutely amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and were able to spend quality time together. The ribs are an absolute must and so is the tempura eggplant. Overall one of the best restaurants in the coast.

    Lucky Bao’s food is, as always, a taste fest! The lamb ribs are the best. I choose the table closest to the “kitchen” as it’s exciting to watch the huge amount of activity happening in such a small space resulting in such outstanding culinary results.

    Used to be one of our favorite restaurants. Unfortunately last night the service was horrible and and it took 1 hour and 20 minutes for our food to come out. It makes me sad to say we won’t be back.
