Descending the stairs into Lucky's is like stepping through a portal into a swinging hipster lounge straight out of the '50s. Dim red lighting washes a rowdy vinyl-upholstered dining room, which is separate from the long narrow bar. Sardine-like conditions are the norm during peak hours, when an energetic crowd (Fort Point Channel artsy types and Financial District worker bees) rolls in for the neighborhood's liveliest scene. - Citysearch

Food was delicious. Lucky’s offers typical American bar fare with a healthy selection of drinks. Downsides included the service and seating. Booths are crammed way too close together to feel comfortable while eating. Server was incredibly inattentive and walked away before the party finished ordering.

We went there to listen to live music. No live music. Drink selection was terrible and service was average. I booked a table through open table specifically asking about live music. I was out of there after 1 drink. I wish I didn’t pay $20 for parking just to discover this. I felt that lounge should have reached out when I clearly put this in my request.

They didn’t allow us in at 7:30 pm with the justification that our 4 15 years old nephews could not stay and have a 1 hr dinner .. too bad that this was not specified in the notes when I reserved

First time to lucky's. Sat at the bar alone. Place was moderately busy. The food was pretty good (got the sliders with a quail egg and truffle fries). The first bartender was super standoffish (Irish dude). When I asked for recommendation for a drink, he muttered something and advised they don't really do that (not sure what that is as they have a whole cocktail menu). The drink he did make me was not good and expensive. I ended up ordering a beer after that. The second bartender made up for the weird experience of the first by being super friendly and talkative (found out he was from Arizona). This would probably be a fun place to go with friends, I was alone traveling and the weirdness of the bartender made me feel super awkward and very alone haha.

I got to the restaurant, and there was one single sign saying the name, it was so small you didn’t even see it. Red lights shining right at the door, they tried carding me, even though all we wanted was dinner. Definitely thought it was a strip club

We had a few hiccups with other guests that were there vibing on a bar level well a over everyone else but the manager was extremely attentive to our table and made us feel good by moving along the others. The server was phenomenal and the food was outstanding. We tried multiple drink choices and all were quality made. We will definitely be back.

Our waiter/bartender was Matt and he was AMAZING! We went to celebrate my boyfriends birthday and he made our experience one we won’t forget. He made me a special spicy drink that I am now obsessed with and made my boyfriend a delicious mojito. We had sliders and a chicken sandwich that was to die for. The wings are THE BEST! Definitely will make it back here on our next trip :)

Good "bar" food - burgers, sliders, etc. We also had a delicious salad. Drinks were tasty and a nice selection of beers. The crowd was young and it was a little loud at times. Our waitress was the only server working at the time and she did an outstanding job. She was pleasant and efficient, even when the table behind us was less than polite to her. We had 4 different meals and everyone was happy with their meal. Prices were quite reasonable, especially for that area of Boston. I would eat there again an also recommend it to others.

I made a reservation 2 weeks in advance. Showed up early for our table and was told that they didn’t have anything available. We saw 2 booths available and asked to please sit there. They told us those are for parties only. Are you kidding? We were told we could wait on a table at the bar but it was slammed with nowhere to even stand. We said we were going to leave and go somewhere else since they lent honor our reservation and they told us to go for it....

Hostess sat us at a crappy table. Moved us to a booth on request. Bartender/Waitperson (Erin I think) was great. Some cocktails were good, others meh. Food? Ugh. Horrible. Hard to screw up bar food. Let’s just say I’m paying for it this morning.

We were given the option of outdoor dining when we booked. There was a narrow pavement which was the outdoor area. The patrons were "on top of one another" and our host pointed out there is no real outdoor area. There was no available outdoor table despite having booked on OpenTable. We went inside. It was dark and looked like a college dive bar but somewhat nicer. Cool decor. Nervous because it was small and appeared cramped. Obviously no-one but the servers were masked. We had nachos (which was huge) are very good and a Plane Jane burger -very good. We had beers which were good. Overall food was good but we didn't linger as we had not planned on sitting inside. Not sure we will be back.
