| - I'm surprised that I have not seen this actively mentioned in the comments below - the prices are very steep.
We had the pumpkin French toast special and the gingerbread waffles, side of sausage and side of bacon, one coffee and one large OJ - total $48. With the tip it, out the door cost a little shy of $60 ... for breakfast. OK ... I'll say it ... that's absurd!
All the main items on the brunch menu, including the granola, exceeded $11 with most items in the $13-$14 range ... and this is without a side protein either.
Was the food good? Answer - yes. Can I taste and discern the quality of fresh, local items - yes. Service: service was fine - no gripes here yet it was basic ... took the order ... dropped off the drinks ... dropped off the food and cleared the table when finished. Rather simple in my eyes.
I have not been to Lucky's in a few years. We had chores in Tremont and first tried Grumpy's on this Sat. around 10:30 a.m. Wait at Grumpy's was a half hour. Tried Lucky's on a whim ... immediate seating. It was crowded yet seats were available.
Customers talk about how Lucky's does not except any substitutions, requests, etc. I personally feel that if I'm dropping $15 on French toast, an establishment needs to seriously consider excepting requests, etc. I get it though as I think the size of the kitchen prohibits requests ... there just is no prep room.
In the end:
Would I go here again ... yes, but probably in a very, very long time.
Would I recommend this place to others ... yes, but with the major caveat ... the prices. Just expect a per person ring of probably $20 per person.
