    We had great service starting with making our reservation. Jennifer was so helpful in helping us get an earlier reservation! Fun vibe and great table service. Steaks were cooked perfectly. Great special occasion spot. Highly recommend.

    It was our first time at Lucky's and we're so glad we went. My husband had the salmon and a baked potato, I had the filet and mac/cheese. Desert was coconut cake and affogato. The meal was top notch all the way! Karen provided excellent service, and we can't wait to return when we are in the area.

    Had higher expectations. The service is great but The food is underwhelming partly due to the kitchen not being very organized. my daughters chicken was raw so it was sent back, I they just recooked the same piece and it was dry after that she didn’t eat it. My husband steak tasted like a cheap cut, maybe we didn’t order the right food. Service and ambiance was great, just food doesn’t match the price.

    Lucky's is our go-to spot for special occasions. Last night was our anniversary and Lucky's was the right place to celebrate this very special event. Thank you Lucky's!

    We had a party of 6 - EVERYONE was very happy and satisfied with the food. Service is top notch. Attentive but not annoying. Truly is my favorite breakfast place in SB/Montecito. Complimentary Mimosa, Orange Juice or Prosecco - How can you beat this!! Fresh warm bread, homemade jam...delicious.
