“Not sure why I stopped going here. In the last years I've been going across the street. However, I had a feeling to revisit this place after many years. Well, I don't know if it's the dish I ordered, or if the reviews are right. But you have regained me as a happy customer. The RED CURRY SHRIMP was DELICIOUS. The shrimp were big and succulent and plenty of them. I will be back!“

“I LOOVEEE this restaurant. My family gets food from here all the time and it is so delicious. The prices have gone up over the years but the people are very hardworking and so kind and very quick. If you go there often you might get a free fortune cookie ?“

“Fried scallops are my favorite from Lucky Fortune's menu. Tonight, my husband ordered food from Lucky Fortune and brought home fried scallops and I have to say these were the BEST I've ever had from Lucky Fortune. The scallops were huge and had a very crunchy breading. Lucky Fortune, please keep making this version of your scallops...DELICIOUS!“

“This place serves food better than normal Chinese restaurants. There's a slightly better seasoning to all the dishes, and it's as fresh as you can get. The prices are the same as similar restaurants. I prefer this one. People are friendly and efficient. It is very close to where I work, and I usually grab a couple of side orders and an iced tea. Convenient and good quality food.“

“Great service and fabulous food“

“We have been going to the Magic Grill for over 30 years. It is quick - if you want but never rushed if you don't. We love that everyone gets to select their own ingredients from 3 meats- chicken, pork , beef- super thinly sliced-12 or so vegetarian choice- zucchini, bok choy, onions, carrots, pineapple, peppers, baby corns, chives and a variety of sauces to suite every taste.“

“I live in Roselle Park. first time ordering from Lin's garden I had fried dumplings and a combination of beef and broccoli something simple but yeah very good I have to say I would definitely recommend this place nice flavoring and decent pricing.“

“Lucky Foo in Kearny, NJ: The Real Deal Chinese Experience

If you're looking for that authentic, no-frills Chinese spot, Lucky Foo is for you.

If you're expecting some fancy American-style service, you might be in for a shock. But trust me, that's part of the charm. It's just one person cooking and one serving, and their mission? Get that homemade food to you, no matter how long it takes. Don't come here if you're in a rush - this is slow food at its finest. I learned about this style of service living in Hawaii, so it felt familiar to me.

Now, let's talk about the star of the show - the food. It's clean, packed with homestyle flavor, and will leave you feeling satisfied. That noodle soup? Pure magic. When I'm craving authentic, homemade noodle soup, this is the spot I head to. It's not an everyday thing, but when that specific craving hits, Lucky Foo delivers.

The vibe inside is something else. It's quiet - like, eerily quiet - and filled with what looked like college-age Asian students. No background music, no chitchat, just people focused on their bowls or phones. It's an experience, I'm telling you.

Don't expect any fancy menus - it's all up on the wall. And heads up, it's cash only. But honestly? The food is so good, you won't even care.

If you're after authentic Chinese cuisine without any of the fuss, Lucky Foo is your spot. It might not be for everyone, but for those who get it? It's a little slice of homestyle heaven right here in Kearny.“

“Little disappointed at this place. Saw they had Crispy Beef with Fresh Honey Walnuts Beef with a bed of steamed broccoli in a sweet brown sauce topped with sugared walnuts. Not crispy as from can see in pic. Was this really beef also? Walnuts were plain as well.Steamed Spinach Dumplings were a bit dry . Hunan Dumplings Spinach and beef dumplings topped with spicy peanut sauce. Spicy. I got not spicy but were very good. Would I try again. Yes think I would.“
