Spicy fried chicken sandwiches, sides, and milkshakes in retro diner
"This hot chicken spot serves spicy plates from its classic mid-century Palm Springs-inspired location in East Dallas. Grab the Big Lou, Buffalo chicken, or Southern classic sandwiches for under $13. Pick your spice level." - Courtney E. Smith
"This retro-diner space has wings in a variety of sizes — get ‘em boneless or bone-in. And the wings are available in lemmon pepper, Jamaican jerk, ranch, or any Lucky’s heat level rubs and come with blue cheese, barbecue, or honey mustard dipping sauces or sauced with Buffalo, hot honey, teriyaki, mango habanero, garlic Parmesan, Korean barbecue, or sweet barbecue. Talk about having it your way." - Amy McCarthy
"A widely publicized Dallas hot‑chicken concept that opened two locations under a hospitality partner ran into controversy after investors say they raised $1.8 million to fund four additional sites (Richardson, Arlington, Pleasant Grove and Oak Lawn) based on assurances that leases were secured and startup costs would be minimal. Plaintiffs alleged communications dried up once funds were transferred, that one manager — who has a 2013 federal guilty plea for money‑laundering — was hostile and evasive with questions, and that little to no construction had begun while the defendants pursued other projects. When an Oak Lawn location did open in February 2023 it closed after four months, and investors say they only learned of the closure by driving past; they also contend portions of their money were used for other ventures and for alleged personal improvements to a Richardson property. The investors sued for negligent misrepresentation and breach of fiduciary duty seeking roughly $2 million but withdrew the suit after an apparently amicable resolution and the case was dismissed without prejudice; a company representative has since assured that the remaining Gaston Avenue location will continue operating." - Courtney E. Smith
"One more location opens on Webb Chapel in Farmer’s Branch, which means one more place to get a plate of Nashville-style hot chicken. Two more, in Oak Lawn and Richardson, will follow before summer is over." - Courtney E. Smith
"I noticed Lucky’s Hot Chicken listed as a stalwart participating restaurant in the app’s weekly lineup, offering a free (often secret-menu) dish to members." - Amy McCarthy
