Lucky 1 is your go-to spot in Rosemead for no-frills takeout dim sum, featuring delicious buns, dumplings, and a variety of comforting Chinese snacks, all at wallet-friendly prices.
"What To Order: Pineapple Custard Bun, Sugarcane Shrimp, Fried Pork Dumpling Much like its name, Lucky 1 in Rosemead is no-frills in the best way possible. Head to this takeout-only counter located in a busy shopping plaza when you want to load up on lots of quality dim sum for a shockingly affordable price. Customers line up early to point at what they want through a glass window—almost everyone is ordering several of their legendary pineapple buns filled with creamy-sweet egg custard, which are so soft and delicious you'll wish you ordered double. Sweet dim sum are definitely a highlight here, but they also do a bang-up job with anything deep-fried: sugarcane shrimp, fried pork dumplings, and crispy egg rolls. They also sell boba, smoothies, and herbal teas if you get thirsty, too. " - garrett snyder, brant cox, fiona chandra, sylvio martins
"Lucky 1 is the go-to spot for no-frills and inexpensive dim sum takeout. The huge variety of fast-food dim sum offerings is not the most refined, but everything hits the spot when there’s a craving. Favorites include the fried yam dumpling, oatmeal snow durian bun, siu mai, har gow, and chicken feet — there are also cute pig-shaped pork buns. Take a look at the online picture menu written in English and Chinese and order by phone to avoid waiting in line. Open seven days a week from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m." - Kristie Hang

"After sitting empty a couple of months, there’s a replacement for Shanghai Bistro. Lucky 1 Restaurant features a dim sum menu, making the tiny restaurant among the smaller serving dim sum. The non-dim sum menu skews Shanghainese." - Jim Thurman
