Went here last weekend, closer to the end of the night. I love the location and I look forward to returning when the weather is warmer, as they installed the garage door style windows in the front. The decor is meh but I did enjoy the layout of the building. I'm giving them three stars for location, renovation, and one because I haven't tried their food yet but I'm happy to see they offer a decent menu. That being said, it took over 15 minutes to get one beer (a can of Breckenridge IPA) and it cost $6.50!! This isn't Chicago, you don't get to charge that here. The bartenderess was nice, and she seemed to be busy as her co-worker stood by chatting with a friend the entire time I was there. I hope to return and have a better review.

We tried Lucky's Wednesday night. Service was great. Menu was very limited and quite expensive for what you get. The Cod Sandwich, Fish Tacos were good. We got a "Lava Cake" for $8.00. It looked and tasted like a Hostess Cupcake with a small dab of ice cream and it contained no "lava". We won't be returning. It's probably a nice place to drink after work.

Definitely what this street needed in place of another white tablecloth special occasion eatery! Low key and casual with a limited menu so food comes out quickly, this place is more bar than restaurant. Nicely divided into two rooms, each with their own bar plus a private party room in the back. Plenty of servers and 2 bartenders behind each bar. Lots of beers to choose from along with some fun mixed drinks. I will be excited to see if they add sidewalk seating along with rolling up their garage door "windows" this summer!

We stopped here to try their burgers and we're disappointed. The burgers were way over cooked and I couldn't eat all of mine. The French Fries were pretty good, and the service was really good.

I went there with the kids for dinner and they loved the food. Can't wait to go there on date night.

Had lunch at Luckys today. The service and food was outstanding. Yeah, it's mostly bar food but the tenderloin was one of the best I've had and the fries were very good as well. Both my companions meals looked very good as well and they had no complaints.

An okay bar with okay food. Not a bad place to spend some time. They have miniature garage doors that open up and let you enjoy the soon to come nicer weather while having a drink. The atmosphere is casual and the decor is what one would expect. Good service and clean surroundings.

This place blows, but it's a typical Peoria "trend bar." Give it three or four weeks and the novelty and the crowds will die down, just like they always do. Go there early, because if you show up at 8, you won't get a table. Peoria is full of geriatric clowns who think they can still drink and socialize, but they'd be better off at an assisted living community with people their own age. It's a couples bar, not a single's bar, so don't think about picking up a woman, unless threesomes are your thing. Also, don't go to talk, because you can't hear over the douchebags.

Everyone in my party loved their meal! We had a bacon cheese burger, fish sandwich, sliders, and the cuban sandwich. Why a star was taken off was all of our fries were cold and limp, and I found it a bit odd to serve fries and potato salad as the sides that come with each meal (potatoes x2). The potato salad was tiny, but very tasty! Again, the meals were delicious! The waitress was very sweet, but it was the end of the night and she was a bit rushed and she made it known that the restaurant was closing. She was probably performing other duties, so we helped ourselves to silverware and napkins, and had to ask for water after a while. We didn't get our food until the restaurant was officially closed, but no one rushed us out. Each employee checked in with us to see if we needed more water or how our meal was tasting. They were very sweet and attentive. Something we weren't aware of...and that's our fault...is that most restaurants in Peoria Heights aren't open on Sundays. This one is! Score! But they close at 8pm :/ why, esp on a busy holiday weekend? Oh well. We watched them turn away many groups of people who were coming in for a drink. I would recommend coming here, but check the times, unlike we did. Oops!

I came here with some friends that I was visiting from out of town. It wasn't as "dive-y" as I expected based on the reviews and I liked the big chalk board with the draft beers and other items (aka shots) that were available. We shared the deviled eggs appetizer with caviar and I ordered the fish tacos. Both were delicious! I also tried the pulled pork quesadilla that one of the members of our party ordered and it was very tasty. They had a wide selection of local and seasonal beers available. I got the beer flight which for $10 was a great deal since it came with six 3-4 ounce tasting glasses of all of the draft beers that they had on tap (including PBR - haha). I thought that this was a great place!

I had been wanting to try this place for a while so my husband and I went one night. The dining room is very small and very loud so it was hard to have conversation without screaming at each other. It was pretty early but there were a lot of very loud and very drunk people in there already. The beer I picked out from the cute charlkboard wasn't actually on tap and it looked like many of the beers listed weren't available. I'm sure they paid good money to get that chalkboard done professionally but it needs to match the selection. I ended up getting a specialty cocktail which was actually really really good but too expensive for me to have more than one. My husband said his burger was "decent" and the nachos I had were okay but I didn't care for the fake cheese. Overall this may be a good place to meet a friend for a drink if we sit outside where we can eat each other , but not a great dining experience . I would stick to mainly appetizers and focus on making the bar the main draw.

Man, I seriously hate leaving bad reviews. But this place wasn't good at all and I feel I must warn the rest of you. We went on margarita and taco night, and everything was ridiculously subpar. The "margaritas" (and yes, I'm doing the finger quotes in the air as I say margaritas) were warm lime-flavored water in a mason jar. We got tired of trying to drink them, and ordered specialty cocktails off of the menu which were equally as horrible and watered down...and ridiculously overpriced. Ouch. Here's the deal kids, I've been known to drink some terrible stuff just to catch a nice buzz, and this stuff was SO bad, I not only didn't catch a buzz, I couldn't force myself to drink any more. It was that brutal. Tacos - well, on one hand I didn't mind them because they tasted exactly like the tacos from the take-home kits at the grocery store. I mean, I make them at home from time to time, so who am I to hate? But I expected better from a restaurant - especially in the Heights. Lastly, the service was rough. I don't blame the waitresses. The poor girls were LITERALLY running to try to keep up with the customers. It took forever to order and receive anything. I tried to be as cool about it as possible & give the girls some slack, but it was still annoying to wait forever for everything. All in all, we have not been back since and will never go again. Save yourself.

Just what the Heights was missing. A laid back "modern dive". I think the modern dive term comes from the fun and tacky decor. Service has been excellent. Menu is pretty cool - it's on the shorter side but enough to keep me coming back. Its the grown up version of the loud corner tavern- with better food. Fish tacos and blackened grouper are highlights among the chicken sangwhich, burgers, and wings. The wings! House sauce is mildly hot with a tang. It is delicious and tastes great with their blue cheese dip/dressing. Deviled eggs topped with tobiko caviar were awesome. This is a must try for Peorians.

It's like Pier 1 and Friday's had an illegitimate child and named it some stupid hipster baby name with too damn many y's.

Very short menu. It's pretty much just a bar. I had the nachos. They were great but the canned nacho cheese sucks the custom pulled pork on them was a twist and the fresh jalapeños were excellent, but the canned nacho cheese still sucked. The service was great.

Ehh...I probably won't go back. The food took a long time to come out even though they weren't too busy. The cook was heavy-handed with the pepper & I don't care for pepper. I had fish tacos & wouldn't recommend them.... not only because of my aversion to pepper but they were texturally unappealing & soggy. My son ordered the chicken bacon sandwich which he said was too spicy & he didn't eat it. We all agreed we didn't care for the onion rings. The waitresses seemed more interested in chatting than in working. My daughter and I were both cold & couldn't wait to get outside to warn up.

Funnest bar in Peoria Heights! Breaded chicken sandwich to die for! $2 PBRs and a great atmosphere

Food was sub par. Staff was awful. Get it together. Gastro pub with no gastro. If this is what Peoria is touring as it's hip place to go and it's leading trendy hang out then I pity those who live here. I looked in the kitchen during the peak of service and was shocked to see the cooks throwing food at each other. Staff needs to take it to the next level and be professional. You're not there to party

I was there on a Tuesday night after getting shut out of Publik House because it was too crowded. Lucky's is sooo close to being really cool. The vibe is fine (there's a bunch of crazy crap on the walls!) and there's some shuffleboard, etc in the back. Service was decent, and the food was good. Most of my party got burgers, and we also shared a nachos. Everything was good, though as other reviewers have noted, kind of expensive. The burger was $11 which is a touch on the pricey side. The nachos were good, but not great, and again, the portion to price ratio was a little out of whack. The beer selection was decent though, so all in all I'd definitely give it another try. I wish 1) the food selection was a little better 2) the food was a little cheaper. It's a step in the right direction for Peoria.
