The Write-Up

The full story

Lucky China is a no-frills takeout staple in Aloma Square that regulars prize for one thing above all: consistency. House Special Lo Mein, Mongolian Beef, sweet and sour chicken and crackly crab rangoon arrive hot in generous portions, and guests say they have never had a bad plate. It is bang-for-your-buck neighborhood Chinese, the kind of order you stop deliberating over and simply repeat.
