We stage our Thursday night cycling club rides out of Lucky's, so this is a weekly destination for me during cycling season. Aside from being a good location for this purpose, Lucky's is a great place to refuel and hang out after a ride. We really like the expansive outdoor seating and they've always got plenty of space for us. Lucky's has a solid tap list, with all of the styles covered by good local, regional, and farther-flung beers with some cool surprises now and then. The menu is what I would call a pretty expansive bar repertoire, with a nice variety of burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, and entrees, and a really good list of appetizers. I can vouch for the burgers; and one of my favorite things is the Papas Grande appetizer, which I get as a meal - waffle fries with cheese sauce, seasoned ground beef, tomatoes, jalapenos, onions, all the toppings of nachos. This is one of my guilty pleasures and something I look forward to all week! The waitstaff at Lucky's is friendly and engaging, but I wish they had few more of these nice people. It gets busy (Lucky's also has two sand volleyball courts, indoor & outdoor bars, and lots of tables), and it can take quite a while to get a drink. I've seen some cases where many of us would have had another round, had the service been quicker. Reading some other reviews, this seems consistent, and I'd wager an extra server or two would really pay off for Lucky's, and would make for happier customers and more return visits. (And more stars on Yelp!).

We play volleyball at Lucky's in Waunakee, which is unfortunate because otherwise I would not go back. We have literally found nails and glass (along with the rocks) in their sand courts, and the nets are terrible. The referees show up, but don't actually call any illegal hits, and you can only see the score half the time. Even the balls are poor quality from being left out and getting water-logged. Initially, I would have thought their outdoor patio was nice. But the firepits are never lit (they are always out of gas), and we have had to move seats because some of the staff won't serve you food if you are sitting near one of the (turned off) fire pits. The selection of liquors outside is a joke, and the beer always seems too carbonated. The service outside has also been atrociously slow. Just 2 weeks ago it took over an hour to get 4 simple sandwich meals and last week it took 20 minutes to get an appetizer! Inside, the service and alcohol selection has been slightly better. I would definitely NOT recommend the crab cakes, and the green beans are definitely weird. Three people tried them, and no one could tell why they were so bad (some type of sauce maybe?). Once our volleyball season is over, I don't think I'll be back.

Baked cod was pretty good. But the service was terrible. Neither the host or the server knew what the happy hour special was. And when we finally found out, it was pretty weak.....$0.50 off rails and domestic taps. Boring!!! Looks like a fun place to watch a have if you can't watch it at home. But we will never go there again.

Time to try Luckys again -- had Saturday prime rib and it was good - adjust for this being a sports bar and it was great! Last several visits I can see real improvements in the quality of the food. Fish fry, chicken strips, prime rib and even a steak have been really good. Ok not a Ruth's Chris or wonderbar steak but it was very good for a sports bar.

My wife and I stopped in there on Saturday at 3:30 PM. The bar only had A couple of people sitting in it and the outside area had a few parents watching girls playing volleyball. We sat outside and waited for service for about 10 minutes. I then walked inside to the bar and attempted to get service while the two girls just stared at the cash register. I sat inside for five minutes while watching golf and gave up and went back outside. Then shortly after getting back outside a hostess took our drink order (whiskey coke, bloody Mary and one beer). It was 20 minutes later and I decided to go inside to see what the statuses was with the drinks. The waitress said she was getting it so I went back outside. The waitress came back outside with my beer and we had to wait for the mixed drink and Bloody Mary. Once we received our drinks I determined it would be best to finish those and leave. I was shocked when I saw the bill. $8 for the whiskey Coke. $7 for the Bloody Mary. These were in small plastic little cups! On the plus side the Nachos looked very good. This was my third visit to this establishment. I'm not coming back.

I go into Lucky's a lot on Thursday evenings. My buddy has children that go to music lessons across the street. We have a few beers while the kids are off being enriched. Lucky's has an excellent beer selection and the food is pretty solid. The beer selection changes monthly. They have pizza cooked in a wood fired oven that's pretty good. My favorite is the specialty pizza which is pesto, grilled chicken, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese and spinach. The chicken alfredo pizza is pretty good too. Of the sandwiches I particularly like the Ultimate Grilled Cheese, which has Swiss, American, and Provolone Cheese along with sliced tomato and bacon. I order that a LOT. The also have a Mediterranean grilled cheese which has marinated artichokes, tomatoes, cream cheese, black olives, fire roasted red peppers and provolone cheese on toasted rye. That is quite tasty. But that particular sandwich has LOTS of stuff in it and so lacks structural rigidity and tends to blow up when you eat it, so be forwarned. I greatly prefer Lucky's on quieter nights. When it's busy there is a lot of echo so it can be hard to carry on a conversation. Some of the bartenders are very sharp and there is one guy who always acts like he wishes he was someplace else and like he's doing you a favor by reluctantly getting you a beer. They have a patio outside and a gas fireplace. Service there can be pretty hit and miss depending upon how busy it is inside. Also, they insist on playing music out there, and the volume is too high and the speaker distorts and I often don't like their choice of music. It would be better if it was quiet out there. I've had uniformly good luck going to Lucky's on Thursday evenings and I have been less impressed when I was there on weekends or other times when they're busy. I've had a couple pleasant evenings sitting outside by the fire when the crowd was small and the music was turned off.

The search for the next great Waunakee dining spot continues... As a hungry denizen of the only Waunakee in the World, I'm constantly on the lookout for a passable dining option in our fair burg. That increasingly futile search brought me to Lucky's the other day for lunch. Inside, it's your basic sports-themed bar and grill, with a lots of of Waunakee sports memorabilia on the walls. If you are looking for a beer and a place to watch a game, you are in luck since the beer selection is pretty good and there are TVs throughout the facility. The menu follows the basic sports bar formula, with lots of deep fried appetizers, burgers, wraps and sandwiches. I tried the cheese curds, which were too greasy and were served with a bland ranch dressing. My entree was the corned beef Reuben sandwich served on a marble rye. They were a little skimpy on the meat and there was too much 1000 island dressing, which soaked through the bread and made it the sandwich difficult to eat. There was no crunch to the toast, so the texture of the meal was very unappealing. Frankly, I've had a better Rueben at Culver's and paid a lot less for it there. The service was mediocre as well. Our waitress showed up within a couple of minutes to get our drink order, but it took about 15 minutes to get our drinks and for her to take our lunch order even though there were only about a half dozen other diners eating lunch. After the food arrived at our table, she did not check in to see how we were doing when we could have used a refill on our drinks. When I flagged her down to get our check, it took another 10 minutes for the bill to arrive. The other annoyance were the flies that seemed to like my sandwich more than I did. The staff were not proactive in dealing with this problem. So sadly, my search for that perfect bite in Waunakee continues as I can not recommend Lucky's until they upgrade their menu and their service staff.

Came with a group of 15. We thought this place is pretty big, they should be able to accommodate us. Took an hour and half to get our food. I had pizza, which was burnt on the bottom. I felt had it not been burnt it would of been pretty good. One person in the group had the tuna steak which was way over cooked. Very dry and tough. The philly was mediocre. The fish fry was luke warm, and nothing to write home about. The nachos were good from what i heard. I will say out waitress was very good and on top of it. Kudos for here.
(1)Denise P.
Not impressed. Understaffed. We were there on a Saturday at 1:30and no one acknowledged us at the hostess station. ..moved to the bar....not even a nod or smile from the bartender. ...WE LEFT.

Tried it on a home football Saturday. About 25 folks in the place half at the bar and 1 bartender. Painfully slow service - unless you're regular it seems - and then it's the fake friendly work you for the tip variety. Burger was damn good - good sized cooked as ordered with cheese and bacon a plenty on fresh roll. Local folks and place just not very friendly. Too bad; food was good.

Decided to visit Lucky's last night when my husband and I were in the area, mostly because we wanted to use our Bucky Book coupon. We decided to sit outside on their patio, which was really nice. They have a large bar and seating area by the sand volleyball courts and fire pits, and even have a bag toss area, which we thought was pretty unique. Several patio tables have large, bright umbrellas to help block the sun while dining outside, which is also a nice option to have. There were banners advertising lots of good weekday happy hour specials, which we will try next time. Their menu is pretty extensive, and I enjoyed the variety of wraps they offer. My husband ordered a melt, and I went with the buffalo chicken wrap, and we weren't disappointed. The portions were large and the food was flavorful. Our waiter was very attentive, friendly and accomodating, which we appreciate, as we know good help isn't easy to find. We had a couple questions regarding the menu, our coupon, and our bill, and he was very knowledgable and helpful. We were happy to have found a place with a nice outdoor patio, good food options, and great service, and will definitely be back.

Not overly impressed. Never enough help! Had dinner 8 mos ago and had horribly slow service. Returned today thinking I'll give it another try. Not much better! Food is mediocre. I realize you're trying to watch your personnel cost, but seriously is it worth sacrificing your customer service? I know too many people in Waunakee that have boycotted this restaurant due to lack of service help. Seems as though most of the reviews say the same thing. Apparently management must not read them to bother to make any changes, which is too bad

Your typical sports bar TV overload. Just fine.

Beautiful patio. Great experience until I ordered food ( luckily I was ignored the first 2 hours I was here & got my own drinks!). The nachos were tortilla chips with a little cheese sauce, a cut up hamburger & 3 little tomato slices. The pretzels were hard as a rock & everything was ice cold. Manager apologized for the food & bought a drink for the one male in our group, ignored the two females with an empty glass sitting in front of us. Finally called the manager over, explained our issues & his exact words "Sorry I suck at customer service", he then got up & walked away from out table. I will never be back!!

Knew this place opened a bit back, and stopped here for lunch a couple of months ago. Meal was adequate. As the first stop on out summer Saturday dinner trek, and since we enjoy Lucky's on Regent, we found our way here, and wished we hadn't. Sports bar in Waunakee, on a slow sports night. Typical sports bar fare. Nothing special. I had the warrior burger and spouse had the chicken caesar salad. Not great and not awful, but no different than all the other places like this and was missing the general buzz and ambience of the Lucky's on Regent. Doubtful would return, but given their only uniqueness is the wood fired pizza, would have to try that.

Love that place, great tap beer, food and interior.

Recently I arranged a private party with the manager and Bobby the chef. I wanted something special, off the normal menu and Bobby delivered an excellent selection of courses not typical for a sports bar. The dinner included rack of lamb, smoked trout, 5 imported cheeses and Crème Brulee for dessert. All of it for a very reasonable price. If you are looking for a place to have a group party, arrange it with Bobby.

Holiday weekend and 1st Badger game of the year. Only 2 bartenders and no service at the outside bar area. That is a bad thing. Typical for the luckys establishments.
(1)Cyndi H.
Service was ok, 3 different plastic glass sizes at outside bar for the same beer! The pizza we ordered was very good but burnt on edges and raw in middle. It was consistent with what we have heard about the pizzas . Apparently they don't know or are not properly trained on cooking with a wood stove. We've heard the same about new Lucky's in Okee, just wish they would get the proper cooking down, rumors would stop.
(3)Christine L.
Lunch was okay. When ordering a burger for $8 to $9 they charge $1.75 extra for a modest handful of mediocre fries. Ala carte pricing for a basic burger basket felt like nickel-and-dime-ing the customer. Nice space. Sports bar area is quite large and no shortage TVs. Service was very friendly.
(2)J F.
Been here a number of times and thought the beer was cold and food was good. No complaints about the service. Glad to have more options in waunakee.

Had lunch during the Badger game today. Service was VERY slow. Food was skimpy portion and mediocre tasting. Waunakee deserves better.
