| - Lucky Lou's recently opened in the Park Selwyn Terrace shopping center (near Portofino's, Harris Teeter, etc.) where Fairview Grill used to be.
I'd gone to Fairview Grill all of once, so when something new opened up I figured it might be worth a try (and the 50% off coupon didn't hurt).
No trouble getting a table on a Monday night, it's your basic bar setting with a big projector screen showing some NCAA basketball and a bunch of smaller tv's showing other games and even How I Met Your Mother (seriously, who watches a sitcom at a bar? I had to divert my attention so I didn't see what happened, spoiler alert!).
The food is pretty good and I highly recommend the "Dippin' Chicken" - a fried or grilled chicken sandwich dipped in whatever wing sauce you want. I went for the Barbalo and was definitely happy with it, although it didn't have too much spice to it. The sandwich was huge, probably 4 or 5 chicken tenders squeezed onto a bun with some lettuce and bacon (also comes with tomato and onion, but who eats that junk).
For the side, definitely get the buffalo chips. They're thicker than normal chips, more like potato slices from heaven, with some buffalo seasoning thrown on and fried.
Fiance got the black & bleu burger with sweet potato fries and didn't have anything negative to say about it. Honey chicken pasta seemed to be a crowd pleaser as well.
Decent beer selection makes this a good place to go to when you don't feel like fighting for a table at Selwyn.
