Review for Lucky Dragon Hotel & Casino Review For Pearl Ocean Google User Oct 14 '17 at 2:59 Aunties all the way back in YEG had one recommendation and of all cuisines they recommended a Chinese Restaurant. Count on the older Asian generations to fish out home food wherever they travel. Not like I wasn’t missing my white rice anyway, no complaints if bbq duck is on the menu either. Thursday night in Vegas for dinner on the strip is bumpin, Thursday night at Lucky Dragon isn’t as rowdy. Hotel was out of the way and empty. It is a newer hotel but it’s a sketchier part off the strip. Casino downstairs had more employees than guests, and inside the restaurant had 5 other tables aside from us. Just a lot of employees standing around watching everyone. Service was okay, he was friendly, but not really knowledgeable about the menu. We asked for recommendations and what were some popular items on the menu. Aside from being flustered with the question, he directed us back to the menu with “well they are all pretty popular..” Oh, yeah? How helpful that was. Crab Meat Fish Maw Chowder - ($22) - This was yummy! But no matter where I go I always douse my bowl of soup with a ton of white pepper so my review on this is not going to be pretty helpful to those who take it pure. Half Roasted Duck - ($25) - Skin on the roasted duck was surprisingly really good, crispy layer that gave a good crunch and the fattier pieces on the dark meat had an immense amount of Steak Cubes in Wine Wasabi Aioli - ($28) - This cubed beef dish has similar flavoring as the viet shaking beef dish. Nice savory salty flavoring and presentation was unique with the nest. The wasabi aioli was unnecessary, I didn’t like the mint like aftertaste that masked the beef flavor. Pea Shoots with Bean Curd Skin in Fish Broth - ($25) - soooooo expensive for the sad amount of veggies in this dish. The hotel overall looks nice, the dining room space is huge and there are a ton of tables. Food was also good, prices aren’t worth it though. Wouldn’t detour to give this place a try if you’re on the strip. I’m sure there's better Chinese restaurants with a better bang for your buck. Will not be recommending this place.
