“ This place is amazing. Great atmosphere. Terrific staff (Vance is the best). Drinks deliver. EAT HERE. DRINK HERE. ”
“ This was my third time to order from Lucky Danger. The food is consistently tasty and the service is stellar. Everything was prepared with the right amount of spice and tasted so fresh. My order was ready exactly on time. Perfect all around, and I'll be back! ”
“ My boyfriend and I ordered for the Meat OK! for 2-3 and the dumplings for delivery. First off, major props for the packaging! Everything was labeled; the bags and stickers were really cute. The food was also really good. The duck fried rice and crab Rangoon was particularly delicious. The greens could have used a bit more cooking, but were tasty. We loved that it included such a great variety of dishes and proteins (beef, chicken, shrimp, crab, veggies). The portions were good-sized; the two of us had plenty of leftovers. ”
“ The food is amazing and fresh. Their prices are affordable and you get a good portion. I received my food fairly quickly after ordering. I got the veggie lo mein, lemon chicken, general tso chicken and pickled cucumbers. The each item was delicious and you don't feel heavy and sluggish after eating. Their customer service is great as well. I'm definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu. ”
“ Extremely well run establishment. There was a mistake on my order (my fault mind you) and the staff fixed it no problem, all smiles! Thanks again for the great food and service. ”
“ Ahhh, unpretentious Chinese comfort food. I have ordered delivery from them a few times with never a complaint. Abundant servings. Nice level of flavorful spice: just right! You get a nice bit of heat, yet not so much to cause you to scream “ay yai yai” in the bathroom tomorrow morning. Try Lucky Danger. You’ll like it. ”
“ Not sure why there are some very negative reviews on here. We’ve ordered twice from here and each time the order is packed well, comes with cute stickers, and tastes fresh. Some food delivery apps have coupons for this place from time to time as well. I will say it is is a bit tough to find if picking up though. However, this place is definitely well above your average hole in the wall Chinese take out place. ”
“ Food is made fresh to order and the chef was very courteous. Had Shrimp Fried Rice, Beef Lo Mein and the Sweet and Sour Chicken. Everything tasted very good. And their pork dumplings are homemade and they were delicious. If I'm ever to visit D.C again, ill be sure to order takeout from there ”
