Very friendly staff, especially the lady who takes the to-go orders; large portion sizes; fresh food; good variety; good prices.

If you like Asian food, Lucky Pot is incredible. I mostly eat their Chinese food and it is so much better than anything I have ever had. I’ve tried several dishes, but the Mongolian Beef is out of this world with a uniqueness I have not found anywhere else.

Sad to say, I live about forty minutes way, but it is always worth the trip.

They have the best Mongolian beef in Auburn!

Sam Dowling

Best Chinese food in Lee County, probably best in the state. The menu is huge and you can’t go wrong with anything but the Mongolian beef is definitely the best thing they offer. Drink options are plenty (no alcohol), and the appetizers are great.

Above all, Lucky Pot boasts unbeatable service that notices repeat customers and make your business feel wanted. With lunch specials that run through the weekend, there’s no better spot in Auburn for a spontaneous lunch outing.

Always clean, and the waitresses are always nice. Can be a little slow at times when busy, but never so bad it's a problem. The food is great and they have some of the best lunch prices in town.

Very fast and friendly service! The food was delicious and a fair portion.

Angela Hand

Amazingly fresh Chinese food. This place is the real deal and has the spice you are looking for. The Hot & Sour soup, pork dumplings and General TSO chicken was delicious. Service was AMAZING!

Timothy Soehnlin

The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. Shared a large hot pot with the table and proceeded to eat a little too much. The spicy broth was delectable. Hopefully I will visit again on my next trip to Auburn.

Delicious! This little local place is a hidden gem. The menu is extensive, portions are generous, and service is top notch. A few great options we've tried: hibachi, spring rolls, dumplings, hot and sour soup, ramen. We didn't try the hot pot this time but we got to see it at the table next to us and the experience (and food) looked amazing.

My friend and I stopped here on the way back home from a road trip, and we were treated so kindly by the staff. They answered all of our questions, were very patient, and gave great menu recommendations. The food tasted so delicious. The soup bases we chose (麻辣 and 中药) were some of the best I’ve ever had. I would make a special trip just to come back here!

Very modern atmosphere, including tables with heaters for the meals.
I will say that their pork fried rolls are some of the best that i've ever had across the country.
Even the egg drop soup was very good.
I tried the hibachi steak, and it was also above average.
You can't really beat the price point for the quality of food and the quality of the atmosphere. I will say that I went here during a regular dinner hour on a Saturday and was surprised with the lack of patrons. I would advise anyone reading this to ignore any negative reviews on them.
Many of those reviews by people who only have 1 or 2, maybe 5 reviews altogether.
The only thing I do not like and what I would normally knock a star off of is the menu. It needs to be polished up a little bit because it is so all over the place. It's not hard but not intuitive by any means.
If I were an actual restaurant reviewer, I would say that it is way too much and probably cost them quite a bit of money and food costs to maintain the ability to prepare all of what they offer.

Parking: Don't try to fit a dually in the front.
Small, and i mean small parking lot.
13th Gen F150 is difficult when they are busy. Even for someone who drives for a living.
There is additional parking in rear.

The quality and quantity of their cuisine is extraordinary. I got so much delicious food from my takeout order that I had two days of meals from it. They loaded me up with extras like sauces, napkins, chopsticks, fortune cookies, etc. Wow! It was the ultimate Extra Value Meal. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Lucky Pot is my choice now when I want Chinese cuisine.

We went based on the 4.7 star rating and rave reviews. Unfortunately our experience was not 4.7 star worthy. The server was lovely & the decor very modern and clean.
There were 4 of us and we ordered edamame to start. When she brought thar to our table we ordered our meals. We all decided on the Hibachi that they prepare in the kitchen. These come with soup and salad.
She brought the soup & salad right out together. Not my preference but ok. The salad was swimming in dressing but the dressing had good flavor. The soup was the best part of the meal.
It took a while for the hibachi to arrive. When it did it was not hot or even warm. The beef was over cooked and tough and the salmon was like cardboard.
The plates were again swimming in sauce. It was awful. We couldn't even finish it.
I will say that those of us who had shrimp remarked that it was cooked fine. Still cold though.
I guess if you want to cook your own hibachi at the table you will have a different experience.
We won't be back.
