Lucky Time

Might be my new number 2 favorite Chinese place in SGF.
Number one on this side of town at least.
Don’t hate me Cashew Station, you still hold down the south side. Lucky time is amazing.
We finally got a chance to get take out from there and I don’t regret it.
I got Orange Chicken because it’s either really good or really bad at most places.
Let me tell you it was the best Orange Chicken I’ve ever had.
Tasted VERY fresh with the orange, not just some dollar store orange juice.
Oh and it was spicy.
That was honestly a nice change of pace.
Next time I’m going to have to get some General and check out that heat. My wife got Chicken Fried Rice and it was 3 meals worth.
Nice balance of chicken to rice and no random chunks of onion like some others in town.
It was the perfect texture, color and taste. The only thing that made me a bit disappointed was the Crab Rangoon.
They left a lot to be desired with taste and inside consistency.
Especially considering how flavorful the rest of our meal was.
I’m going to chalk it up to a bad day and hope they’re better next time.
Because let’s be honest, we will be back! I wish they were able to have a drive thru, but I obviously get that’s not possible at this location.

Happened to be staying overnight in downtown Springfield.
Thought to myself "Wonder if I can find good Springfield style cashew chicken"? This place is not fancy but the food is delicious and the price is right.
Highly recommended.

Tried the general chicken.
It was really good.
Maybe the best I've had.
Great portion for a good price as well 👍
