"Club Lucky looks like a 1940s Italian supper club, so it’s bound to charm anyone who claims they’re an “old soul.” It turns out a lot of people feel that way—the huge main dining room with lots of tables and big leather booths is always crowded. The best way to enjoy this place is with a group, and prepare to sail away on a sea of martinis and red sauce. Order the fantastic handmade cavatelli in vodka sauce, and the lightly fried calamari as an appetizer. Most of the dishes here are meant to serve two, so we mean it when we say you should bring some friends." - john ringor, adrian kane, nick allen
