I have always liked the feel and ambience of this steakhouse, which has stayed true since they opened so many years ago!
Our service was good, but the restaurant was still busy at our arrival at 8pm, which limited the amounts of check-ins we received and the time it took for drinks to arrive, which were crafted well!
My Ribeye Gorgonzola, medium-rare, was cooked to perfection, and smothered with crusted Gorgonzola (hence the name), mushrooms and onions. My girlfriend's Bone-in Strip Steak, also ordered medium-rare, was bone dry. Her Mac'n'Cheese lukewarm. She didn't want to complain and continued eating, but when I finally convinced her to get it replaced and take it to go, Lucky's did so without hesitation. While the replacement steak looked like it was moist and exuding its juices, once we got home and cut into it, it was yet another dry steak. Very disappointing. When leaving, we overheard the neighboring table also returning a steak for being dry.
Considering the difference between our steaks (succulent Ribeye vs dry Strip, both at medium rare) I can only assume that either, the cook is inexperienced with lower fat content steaks, or that the strips were of low quality. Either way, when we return we will not likely order another strip steak from Lucky's.
