Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Public records show six inspections at Lucky Chinese Restaurant stretching back to 2022. The latest inspection on file is from Feb 13, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

Each of the recent inspections has turned up roughly the same number of issues.

When inspectors have written things up, non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material has been the most frequent reason, cited four times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Queens restaurants. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
