This now comes without the chowder. What used to come with is now separate and more expensive. It is $8 for a cup of chowder. The all you can eat fish and chips is 27.99. It is now cod medallions and of course the chowder is not included. The all you can eat chowder is 9.99 extra! We left and didn't stay. Notice that they are pushing cheaper rock fish and I am sure that other things have changed. I don't know why new ownership thinks it is a good idea to raise the prices and give you less It was always overpriced but the food was good. $30 to get the tacos and chowder that we used to get before and almost $40 for the all you can eat. Sorry we just won't be back

This classic, no-frills spot carries a nostalgic charm, with a casual, welcoming atmosphere that makes it feel like a staple of the community. It's the kind of place where the focus isn't on trends or presentation, but on delivering satisfying, flavorful food that keeps people coming back. The Hamburger perfectly captures that philosophy. It's simple--nothing overly dressed up or complicated--but that's exactly what makes it shine. The patty is cooked well, with a satisfying sear that brings out the natural flavor of the beef, while the bun and toppings complement rather than overwhelm. Every bite feels balanced, familiar, and genuinely delicious, like a reminder of how good a straightforward burger can be when it's done right. The California Burger steps things up with a more layered flavor profile. The meat is cooked just right--juicy, tender, and full of flavor--and paired with fresh toppings that add both texture and brightness. There's a satisfying richness to it, but it never feels too heavy. Each component works together seamlessly, creating a burger that feels indulgent without losing that classic drive-in appeal. Another standout is the Onion Burger, which might be the most memorable of the bunch. The patty is cooked to a juicy perfection, locking in flavor with every bite. What truly elevates it, though, are the caramelized onions. They're soft, slightly sweet, and deeply savory, blending into the burger in a way that feels effortless. The combination of the rich beef and the perfectly cooked onions creates a harmony that's hard to beat. Not everything hits the same high note, however. The Calamari Rings were a bit of a letdown. There was a slightly off-putting seafood smell that took away from the experience, and the breading felt excessive--so much so that it would fall off easily. On top of that, they leaned a bit too greasy, making them heavier than expected and lacking the crisp, clean bite that good calamari should have. Despite that one misstep, The Family Drive-In excels where it matters most. It delivers consistently great burgers that highlight quality, simplicity, and flavor. For anyone craving a classic drive-in experience with satisfying, well-executed burgers, this spot is an easy recommendation and well worth the visit.

Definitely the best thing we got. Cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The fish and prawns were beautifully fried with panko breading. However, the fish, prawns, and fries were very under seasoned leaving them all very bland unless they were dipped in sauce. The tartar and fry sauce were delicious and needed for the fries, fish, and prawns. If we come back, it will be for the burger!

Introduction: I got…read morethe Yelp email asking if I tried Lucky Louie, so since I'm currently doing the America 250 series of American established restaurants. I'm going geographically east to west across the US with some states represented and is ending with CA, OR, & WA in that order. But I'll go out of geographic order with a bonus 2nd Washington state established restaurant for Lucky Louie. The original Washington state pick will be a chain place in Columbia, MD about 10 miles from my home. Experience with Lucky Louie: Just last week my girlfriend & I had a trip to Seattle & Vancouver, BC. We arrived at SeaTac airport on time. Our hotel was near the airport. We decided to eat in the airport before leaving security as options were somewhat limited like Denny's, Jack in the Box, McDonald's, etc. We wanted something that might be better here and/or hard to come by near home in Maryland. We walked around the airport and considered Lucky Louie as a strong maybe, but we wanted to see what was out there. We walked up to a Poke place, which was a consideration, but it looked weak, and some other various possibilities. Ultimately, we decided to go to that central area in the airport and go with Lucky Louie. We were pretty hungry after long flight and spending a bit of time walking around (as I needed to get a walk in since I was sitting on phone for 5 hours) to determine what to eat. We decided to split the clam strips for $6.99, which were fried & delicious. I was a bit unsure about how good these would be. But this well exceeded expectations. My girlfriend already knew she loved clam strips, and even said this was amongst the best she's had. We decided to get 3-piece Alaskan pollock each, which is a fish & chips. Fries were solid, but wow the Alaskan pollock was excellent. They also had Wild Salmon strips, but it was a good about $6 price differential. We both decided it wasn't worth it. Salmon is one common thing I make at home for dinner; so I never get out. Granted this was wild salmon, which is a little different, but I figured the Alaskan pollock would be a good choice and not something I could get at home/out in Maryland; maybe some restaurant has locally, but I've never noticed it. This was an excellent meal and a must try for people going to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Cashier was nice too. We definitely had some great meals on the trip, but it was a bit downhill after that. Lucky Louie was the single best meal/food experience we had on the trip. We had some other 5-star meals, but some service issues at the excellent food places that in a couple of cases might lower to 4-star even if food is a 5. Interesting Side Notes: Lucky Louie was specific fishing lure from the mid 20th century made in Washington. Before going through security to fly back home, I glanced at the wall, where it mentioned musicians from each decade. For the 1950's, it mentioned the Kingsmen smash hit "Louie Louie". Although the song was a #2 hit in 1963; it was a cover of a 1957 song by Richard Berry, who performed in the Seattle-Tacoma area and was a local hit song. Further, in 1985 there was an effort to replace Washington state's song to "Louie Louie", which failed but was an interesting effort. Not sure if the song was perhaps a secondary meaning of the restaurant's name song in addition to the fishing lure brand.
