Lucky Zhang’s Family

Waitress has the WORST attitude, I don’t think she knows how to smile. She threw toothpicks and the menu at our table but that won’t stop me from coming back for $ 2 peanut butter noodles late at night. I love the fried intestines here and this place has cheap Asian eats although how healthy it is might be a good question… NO TIP is necessary!
Food comes out extremely fast. Peanut butter noodles came out in 2 minutes, other appetizers came out in 4, and my fried intestines came out in 10 minutes. If you’re looking for some drunk food or cheap food late at night, this is a good option if you can handle 1 mean RBF.

First and last time here… if I get food poisioning, I am gonna be mad. We order three dishes. Pig blood with leek, water sprouts vegetable and sea bass fish. The food was horrible. The vegetable was not well washed nor cut. The pig blood didn’t seem fully cooked and the sea bass. OMG, the fish tank had almost dead fish inside and one fish was sick as it was also about to die. It was already upside down with it’s stomach upright. No good. I feel the fishes are infected. When we brought up to the waitress about the fishes in the tank, she said it was fine and that they are all well and will not infect any of the other fishes. This is bullshit. Had we not sat next to the fish tank, they would probably had served and cooked us the infected almost dead fish. Unbelievable… Now I am feeling queasy… shit. They only get one star from me because I was able to find an outlet near our table and charged my phone. I would never go here again. I so regret it. Ahhhhhh…

My friends ordered 2 items for take out while I was sitting outside in my car waiting.
Steamed dumplings and fish dumpling soup (?) The soup was pretty bad. Bland as helllllll.
The steamed dumplings on the other hand. Wow. I never get it steamed, always fried, but it was so delicious! Prefect seasoning inside.
But why the hell did my friends wait over 35 minutes when I saw a group of fjs going in and out before my friend even came back out. Obviously they treat their own kind better especially since my friends didn’t know how to speak Mandarin or Fj.
Seriously shouldn’t have took more than 10 minutes.

One of best fujianese restaurant on 8^th ave. I mean the price range is really good you can get 3 dish and a soup for 16 dollars which can feed up to 3 people. If your on a budget you can go in there and order something for probably only 2 dollars. Everything in there is good. Not too salty nor sweet if you decide to try something sweet.

good authentic Fujianese food very reasonable price, open ²⁴⁄₇ everyday

Affordable & delicious Fujianese food located in the heart of 8^th Avenue!
It’s recommended (but not necessary) to bring a Fujianese/​Mandarin — speaking companion.
Hungry at odd hours? Lucky Zhang’s Family is a ²⁴⁄₇ restaurant operation. No matter what time of the day that you are hungry, it’s open for you to pay a visit. Don’t expect much waiter service or fancy looking décor. Keep in mind, you are here for the traditional Fujianese food. For its affordable price, you get so much food and your tummy will be satisfied.
Favorite dishes in this restaurant include:
— Fried Vermicelli Dishes with meat of your choice — a comfort food for all, not too oily and very flavorful.
— Fujianese-​style Wonton Soup — a lot smaller compared to the Cantonese wonton; comes with a vinegar-​based soup; very different but worth a try.
— Fried Taro Cake — Love! Crushed taro purée (still thick!), dipped in flour and deep fried. Taro purée still hot and soft on the inside, crispy dough on the outside.
— Crab Soup with Chinese Cabbages — hot soup with added egg whites and real crab meat with corn flour to make it thicker. Add a bit of red vinegar — perfect soup for cold/​rainy days.
The bill will come out to be less than $ 20.00. Your eyes will look again to make sure, but it’s true.

第一次遇到这种没责任感的店 半夜2点去吃饭东西忘在哪里 打点话进去问了下东西还在才放心睡觉 说好早上去拿。一早很高兴的去 进去见到还是昨晚那个还先和他问个好 再向她那东西 没想到她说没了 可能被人拿走了 连对不起都没有 当时真想和她大吵。算了好男不和这种女斗 都是福州人 真希望福州人可以提高素质一起努力 让全世界都认识福州人
张家兴 再也不会去了

Hmmm… What I definitely dislike about this place is that their lighting is a bit dim. And, sometimes the wait staff takes a while to get to you. A bit unprofessional.
I like their family-​meal dinners. It’s enough for 2 people and is quite worth it. My family orders it everytime we come here. I love ordering their sizzling beef. The food is all very delicious.

Why 4 stars? 1. It’s extremely friendly to my wallet 2. The dirtiness leads to extreme deliciousness 3. It’s opened ²⁴⁄₇ and lastly it’s affordable. This is the to go joint after a night of hardcore partying at 100 fun and you can actually continue the party downstairs as your food comes. If $ 10 is all you have left after dropping $ 40 at 100 fun, it’s all good!!! Overall the restaurant itself is disgusting but the food is mighty. The food comes out fast so you won’t have to worry about starving. I love coming here after getting trashed at your local brooklyn chinese karaōke bar.

As authentic as it gets. Dont expect to see anything in english. or think your eating chikcen or beef. Get the noodles and play it safe. Open late. And dont complain when the chinese guy sitting at the next table lights a ciggerette or lord knows what else you will get in your food. Buts is tasty!

a value eat on 8^th ave, don’t know if there are any NON value eats on 8^th ave, but there are some
this place is cheap and open 24/​7, they have the well known 3 dishes to choose from a wide selection PLUS a soup for all under $ 20, yummy,
clam tofu soup — which is delicious, not too salty and does not taste like it has MSG at all, won’t feel thirsty after you drink it
fried tofu which is delicious, nothing special but tastes good
sweet and sour fish — the fish was not in deep batter which you can actually taste the fish
veggies — veggies is veggies, but good thing is that it wasn’t oily, most of asian places after u finish the veggies, you can see a layer of oil left on the dish
noodles with peanut sauce — $ 2 for this dish, OMG, never thought i will ever see a $ 2 dish at a restaurant, its made of «chow mein» (thick type noodle) and they give you a lot, not cheap on portions
had the snails — which is $ 6 for a small dish, it was enough, and for $ 6 im not complaining
this is a family style restaurant and make sure you have someone in the group that speaks fujian or mandarin, fujian preferred because they will most likely know what’s good
remember cash is king and you don’t have to leave tips
i would definitely come back here again

²⁴⁄₇ Fujianese restaurant, always there, always fast, especially when you’re hungry. I been here for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late night dinner, a place I could always count on. My last visit I had the soup with 3 dishes family style option for under $ 20!

i wasnt even hungry but a few friends kidnap me here late last night (actually, almost morning) after a long night of drinks. ended up binge-​ing on:
* the freshest dumplings ive had in a long while
* the best fujian style oxtail noodle soup ive ever had so far
* the best chow mai fun ive had in a long long time
* snails — very tasty but hard to suck out while still buzzed
* «white rice» fish tht was odd, mostly batter, very little fish
suffice it to say, it was a gooood meal. perfect for late-​night, after-​drinking, stuffing-​your-​face.
relieved to find out they have a manhattan location too…

I really like this place… the food is sooooo cheap… and the it brings back good memories of my childhood food! Best FuJianese food on 8^th Ave!!! Its open ²⁴⁄₇! I really like their Ban Mian (Noodles with peanut sauce) and Bian Rou (Fujianese dumplings)! Their chow fun is good too… love love love!
Note: No tips! =)
