(Shaking my head with such delight and confusion) I've been alive for 50 years and have eaten a lot of Chinese food, this is one of THE BEST that I have EVER HAD! So delicious, chicken in my chicken fried rice was so juicy, the Chinese doughnuts...WOW!

This is my 2nd time trying Lucky Yee. This experience was worse than the first. We ordered: - chicken fried rice - the chicken tasted old, like if you were to microwave leftover chicken -egg rolls - chicken and veggie, again the chicken tasted awful and overall the egg rolls were not good -crab rangoons - it was the only good thing! - wontons - idk what the meat inside was but I started to chew it and had to spit it out. It was NOT fresh. The meat was old and tasted gamey.
Very disappointed. Will not be trying them again. Money wasted as we spent over 30 bucks including tip and had only 1 edible item. None of the food tasted fresh. It taste like leftovers reheated and/or fried. Would not recommend.

Lucky Yee Chinese Restaurant in New Albany is a great spot for a quick, satisfying lunch. Service is fast, and the lunch portions are generous—offering great value for the price. There’s both indoor and outdoor seating available, and the food is consistently flavorful and freshly prepared.

I used to love Lucky Yee Restaurant, but lately the food quality has really gone down. The Crab Rangoon had barely any filling, some had none at all. The crispy noodles for the soup were stale, the chow mein was dry, and nothing tasted fresh—especially the chicken and veggies. Spent $35 on 3 soups and a chow mein, and it just wasn’t worth it. Disappointing experience, not sure I’ll be back.
Updated : I’ve been a loyal customer of Lucky Restaurant for over a year, but unfortunately, the quality has gone downhill. During my recent visit, the Crab Rangoon had barely any filling—some didn’t have any at all. The crispy noodles that come with the soup were stale and lacked the crunch they used to have.
The noodles in the chow mein were very dry, and the chicken didn’t taste fresh. Even the vegetables seemed old and unappetizing. Overall, the food felt rushed and poorly prepared.
I spent $35 on 3 soups and a chow mein, and it just wasn’t worth it. Sadly, this isn’t the first disappointing experience I’ve had lately. Unless things turn around, I don’t know if I’ll be returning

They are local and family owned. The gentleman that took my order was patient and friendly. I ordered a few apps. The soup and big shrimp are very good. The spring roles were ok. I'll be going again for more take out .

Lightning fast take out. 7 minutes from order in store to food in my hand. Asked for extra spicy and they delivered big time. I think it may have been more chili oil but still not sure. Great food for the price and I will definitely be back

Wings were terrible, over cooked. Very disappointed. I have not eaten here in a couple of years because of a prior issue I had. I figured a couple of years was enough time in between visits and I was expecting something much better than I got. The wings were extremely hard and overcooked. If I go back I'll try something else because I like to give small business the benefit of the doubt but this was just not good.

My boyfriend and I love this place. Absolutely never misses. Willing to drive almost an hour round trip to order here. Would love an OSU campus location
Hot n sour soup when I have a cold. Best cure. It was delish thanks

Generous quantity, fresh, not very flavourful, inside was cold, no heating

Not a local to New Albany but spent some time here with some family and Lucky Yee was absolutely delicious. Chicken Fried Rice was perfect, veggie lo-mein was flavorful, Orange Chicken had large pieces of chicken free of extra breading and with excellent cuts of chicken.
