| - I'll admit upfront that my review is probably a little biased simply due to the excitement of discovering a newly opened bar and grill practically in my back yard.
That being said, it was great to go to lunch today and discover that Lucky Lou's is good! Very good!
If you're from the East Valley, you may already be familiar with Lucky Lou's, this was my first experience though and I am excited to have such a good place near by.
The first thing to hit me walking was the layout and decor. Usually, I'm not the kind of person who really cares one way or another. As long as the place is clean, I'm good. With Lou's though, I was really impressed with the fun atmosphere, theme and design. The bar has a glass top, with different gambling table mats arranged underneath, complete with cards and chips. It's a great touch.
The food was good too. They're on the lower end of the $$ scale. A burger and Guiness cost me about $14. I don't recall seeing anything on the menu more than $15 or $17, but I did notice that everything was offered in a generous portion.
The service was fantastic. Attentive and friendly staff complimented by the manager who gave me a basket of fries on the house to go with my burger and side of pasta salad.
They have happy hour M - F from 3 -6 and Sat,Sun from 12 - 6. In addition, they have $3 drink specials from 9 - close.
I'm sure my excitement has come through clearly for Lucky Lou's. Not just because it's close, but it's a fun atmosphere with good food and good service. Looking forward to many more visits in the future.
