| - I went to Lucky's Café today for breakfast with a friend. We didn't make reservations (it was Mother's Day), so we had a 10 minute wait for a table for two, which was not a bad wait at all.
Our server was very energetic, and exuded happiness while she greeted us and described all of today's specials on the menu. She did a great job verbally describing the specials. I know, because, as she was reciting from memory, I was actually reading the "special menu," and she described all of the items on the long menu in order!
I ordered the Breakfast Burritos - scrambled eggs wrapped in flour tortillas, covered in what tasted like a mole (pronounced "mole - aay") sauce. This meal came with Lucky's Café hash browns, which are big diced potatoes with the skins on them. The meal was very tasty and filling.
Our server came by often to see if we needed anything.
We were lucky to sit inside the restaurant, which, in my opinion, is way too small for such a popular place. This time of year, there are tables set up outside, some under covering that provided some shade, and other tables directly in the sun. The addition of these outdoor tables easily doubled the amount of total seats.
Why only four stars? Two reasons: This place is too crowded, and I think the prices are a little high. Yes, this is a very popular Tremont restaurant which serves fresh food, most of which is raised/grown in Ohio. When I stated that this is crowded, I meant that there isn't much room to walk through the indoor dining area. There were a couple of times that my chair got bumped from behind by someone walking by, and I also had to make sure that no plates or glasses were too close to the edge of the table, because other peoples' behinds maneuvering between the tables could easily knock objects off the table.
