I am so sorry.Been using website for 6 years now, and this is my first review.. It was that bad, that I had to vent / share.The Service: Really Bad from all of their employees.. There’s like a “MEAN-ess” from them. You can feel it and you can see it from all of their employees. Even the next table from us felt it too and even shared what their “reklamo” to us.The Food: Bad, too salty, and too MSG-y. And super bagal i-serve ng food.Won’t be coming back.Won’t be coming back.Won’t be coming back.

This is my go-to Chinese eatery/restaurant since I live so near and on a good day, there's no need to commute.What I love about this restaurant is that everything is BIG- serving size and flavor-wise, and that their prices seemed to be inflation-resistant (haha!).Their rice meals are affordable and their portions are hefty. Lechon Kawali Rice, Chopsuey Rice, and Beef and Veggies Rice (all under 200 pesos) are truly value-for-money eats.They have this bowl of Beef Wonton Noodle Soup (160php or so) that I order for sharing. Their dimsums, especially their sometimes-elusive Xiao Long Bao, won't really break your bank.Sure, they have waitstaff that looked like they have been there for decades (I'd like to choke it up on their employers being able to take good care of them). Not as warm and accommodating as we all want them to be, but I can tolerate the lukewarm service as long as they don't go snooty on me.Their food is not the very photogenic kind, and it feels like a dear Guama's place or an extension of home so much that it feels awkward to snap away some photos of my meal there. You get the picture. Haha!

Partner and I live around Welcome Rotonda but never tried Luck Garden Seafood until today. Despite it being the weekend around lunch time, we were glad to have been seated right away due to the place not being crowded.As other Chinese restaurants do, the place served hot tea for which we were grateful. The white cups, however, I wiped down with a tissue because the inner rim looked gray. Know that I'm not really the OC-kind of person who checks and wipes utensils prior to eating but those cups begged for deeper cleaning or better, replacement.We ordered their Luck Garden fried rice, a small serving of Lemon Chicken (which we were told was good enough for three people), a serving of stuffed beancurd skin, beef shumai, and century egg shumai. It was a long wait, which would have been a bit tolerable had the servers been just a tad apologetic. We followed up twice for our fried rice.The food was subpar. The stuffed beancurd was confusingly on the sweeter side, the beef shumai was bland, and the lemon chicken was a plate of very thin chicken strips (almost chicken chips) that were caked in breading before deep frying. Good enough for three if you and your friends are looking to eat chewy chicken strips with about a tablespoon of lemon sauce that made for a very dry mouthful. The fried rice was meh with these crunchy orange bits we were told were scallops. The only thing that tried to pull everything together was the century egg shumai which was nice at best.For dessert, partner ordered an almond with lychee while I went for the almond with grass jelly. They came in small bowls with shaved ice and we had to eat them with Chinese spoons. The almond with grass jelly tasted like your typical sago gulaman. Partner wasn't able to finish his dessert because it was overly sweet.The bill totalled a bit above P1000, which we would have been fine with had the food been good. We decided that it was our first and last time at Luck Garden Seafood.
