Save room for desert! Family style sharing but some portions are fashionable small while others aren't. Plating is always pretty. Chocolate desert and ice creams are simply awesome. read more

I've been to four inspired table events, have had a private event at the chef's table, and have dined in the dining room a number of times. I've loved every experience. The inspired tables are so cool if you can get to one of those. Great food and wine and you get an education on whatever the theme is. The private event was so easy to coordinate with their staff and turned out perfectly. I love the spicy lentil dish and burger on the regular menu and the fun hand crafted cocktails. They serve family style so it's easy to try the specials and other menu items and share around the table. You'll need to call and make reservations in advance but this place is a treat and well worth the price point. Good luck and enjoy! read more

Fancy and awesome date spot. Love the layout. Wrap around bar in front of an open kitchen. Great staff and bartenders. Yummy cocktails and food. Always packed. Last time I went, the duck and the squid ink pasta. YUM.The burger is a classic go-to with overflowing fries. That's all i've got. this place is solid. read more

One of my favorite places to enjoy amazing food, drinks, and atmosphere!! Consistently great service and high quality of food!

Wonderful vibe and great food. Nice for special occasions like graduation. Many interesting choices. We shared many dishes so everyone could try the great food. read more

The Margherita pizza is to die for! As well as the Good luck burger! The mixed drinks are excellent too! The atmosphere here is very relaxed time just goes right on by and you never even notice. read more

I'll keep it simple. Excellent service, staff, food, drinks and wine. Jealous of Rochester having this awesome restaurant since I live in Florida. Would recommend this to everyone. Came here years ago and am very happy to write that it's maintained it's excellence!! read more

Such a fun place to have dinner! Went with another couple, everything is family style so we ordered 4 meals to share. The burger was to die for - might have been the best one I've ever had! The waitress was very helpful and we will definitely be back! read more

The perfect place for date night and/or special occasions!

Could people be any more lame. Going out for a $20+ burger that is still JUST a Burger is ridiculous. Staff barley gives a hoot about you. Over priced is a under statement. Can't we get a real place here in ROC. Expect to see this review not listed like rest of the people that call this place over $$$ and pretentious service. Bad reviews get removed when owners complain sometimes. I know how this Yelp game works now. read more

My favorite burger and Manhattan in Rochester! It's a dimly lit place, so plan accordingly! The atmosphere is speak-easy-ish and they have phenomenal cocktails. The service is good, but you'll need a reservation to get a table on a weekend. Good wine selection too. Only downsides are that everyone congregates at the bar, which can get a little loud, and this design make it difficult to get to the bathrooms located in the back. Regardless of those small issues, I still give this place 5 out of 5 stars every time I go! read more

Never disappointed! Good friends introduced us to this tapas style restaurant when we first moved to Rochester a couple of years ago and it has become our favorite restaurant for casual dining. Great menu choices, excellent wine list, vibrant atmosphere and relaxed, efficient service. read more

Good Luck is my #1 dining and bar choice in all of Rochester. The food, cocktails and atmosphere are a sure bet to never disappoint. If it's my choice for a date or a girl's night out, we will be sitting at the bar at Good Luck. The cocktail's are made better than anywhere else with the freshest ingredients and you can taste the difference! The beautiful, tall brunette bartender that has been there forever is the absolute best. She's knowledgeable, efficient, and has such a cool attitude that heightens the experience every time! I would definitely recommend to anyone! read more

The decor and vibe at this place it so great. I have been a lot of places and this feels like a Chicago steak house with New Orleans class. I would never go to such a nice place sit down, with a well made drink and order a burger. But I did! The burger was the BEST gourmet burger I have ever had. It didn't need anything on it. Not even a spot of ketchup. Truly worth ever penny. Go here, you'll love it! read more

One of my personal favorites in Rochester! Cool space, wonderful food, trendy craft cocktails.

I went to Good Luck tonight for the first time. I went with two of my friends and we did not make a reservation which was a stupid choice on our part because it was 7 o'clock on a Friday. We ran into a couple problems with waiting for a table, but the hostess, Brielle was absolutely amazing! She made sure that we were taken care of and that we were going to be able to dine in the dining room. She made the experience that much more enjoyable!! When it comes to the food, we all shared the burger, the rigatoni and the fried chicken. I cannot say one bad thing about the food all of it was delicious. The ambience was absolutely wonderful! Long story short, go to Good Luck- you will not be disappointed! And say hi to the nice hostess Brielle ! read more

Went here with a large group (highly recommended) and we ordered and sampled just about everything available that night. From pickled blue berries, curry/lentil soup, and steak that was to die for, it was hard to choose what I was going to inhale next. read more

The food here was amazing! Our server, JJ, was great as was the rest of the staff. The service was prompt and despite how busy the place was we didn't have an issue getting everything we needed.( it was a group of 12) It was one of the best meals we have had. read more

Service has been hit or miss. The food has been fairly consistent and good. I'm glad I gave them a second chance, my first ever Good Luck Burger came out burnt when I asked for medium. Food has been better since. Service is either excellent or terrible. Ambiance was sublime! read more

What can I say about Good Luck? It's pricy, it's pretentious and you know what... It's damn good. The atmosphere is a little trendy but still cool. The food is quite good but the menu is seasonal. Many of the things I have loved the most have come and gone from the menu. Change is good! Where Good Luck truly stands out is in their signature cocktails. Some are experimental and worth a try like the Electric Relaxation or the Paper Tiger. They also standout with well made classics like the French 75. The beer selection is actually not bad. They normally have Rohrbach on tap and a few surprises like Hitachino. read more

Great atmosphere & food. You definitely need a reservation--it is always full to capacity. The price point on the food varies--some items are a good deal while others are a little pricey for their portion. Excellent service. read more

Good Luck is a popular hang out spot for the young professionals, adorned with simple but chic decorations and dimmed lighting to create a warm ambiance. Over the weekends it can get extremely crowded, especially the bar area, which can cause an unusually loud atmosphere, but the place is worth a visit. The menu changes frequently and the food selections are always unique with small portions meant to be shared which offers the chance to taste multiple dishes in one sitting. The cocktails are always delicious, as well, and well presented with sliced star fruits and other delightful treats. read more

This is the place to go for dinner in Rochester. For a long time, I was a loyal 2Vine goer for all my nice dinners with maybe a switch up to Max's at Eastman Place, but then Good Luck came along. I love the concept, and the food matches. I haven't had the (seemingly) very popular burger because a 1lb burger looks fairly nasty to me, but everything else on the menu is incredible. Every single piece of food I've eaten from there is great, the staff is knowledgeable, and the cost isn't that high for what it is (a high-end restaurant). Highly recommended. read more

Burger, pizza, fries and cocktails are always my go-to when here. I gain 20 lbs but its always worth it.

Where to start... the burger is phenomenal. It's a full 1lb, and it comes with fries and the most delicious dipping sauce. Their drinks - always fantastic. I'm partial to fruity things, and they'll always up the fruit when I ask. Their cheese board is always a win, the pizzas are always good, the pastas fantastic. It's always my number one suggestion for a big group, because their entrees are portioned to share and that way you get to try them all! The atmosphere is really cool, though it can get a bit loud and crowded with the happy hour bar crowd. read more

Make a great French 75 and a really indulgent burger and fries. Really great if ya plan for a big

Really cool place with great interior and open kitchen. Got the sampler plate which was a little pricey at $19.00. Had some cheese, shaved meat, and great fish spread (tastes better than it sounds) with fresh bread. The place was packed. Seems to be where the good looking young Rochesterians go to eat and be see, Had a great time and the food was great. read more

Good Luck is a truly unique dining experience here in Rochester. It's very reminiscent of a restaurant in a bigger city like NYC or Chicago. The shared plate concept is great and allows everyone to try a few different things. It always seems busy, and the drinks here are phenomenal. Would definitely recommend good luck to anyone looking for an interesting night out! read more

I had a great meal here! We started with the meat/cheese plate, which I would definitely recommend. They select something for everyone--strong cheeses, creamy cheeses, and many different styles of charcuterie. Everything we shared was wonderful. Standouts for me were the bibb lettuce salad and the orecchiette pasta, which I think had a rabbit ragu sauce. The burger was only ok....it was slightly overcooked. the fries were very good though. And, the drink list was great. Though I am normally a beer drinker, there were a number of awesome cocktails that I am glad I explored. I forget the names, but the one with tea and whiskey and the spicy taquila based were particular favorites. Next time I am in Rochester I will definitely be back. read more

"Good luck" ever trying to get a table. Fun bar area. Hostesses are always un-accommodating. If you ever get a table you will find the food to be decent tasting but always overpriced. read more

I have been going to Good Luck since it opened for cocktails, food, and general mischief. The cheeseburger was and is still the best in town but it's definitely meant for 2 or more people. I would also recommend the red lentils. In fact, get both and share with friends. In addition to tasty eats, the cocktails and wine list are great (I will say, I generally get wine when I go but they make an excellent French 75). For over five years since it opened, it remains one of the places to 'see and be seen' in Rochester. read more

The food is always excellent. The pizzas are delicious and the burger in particular is outstanding. The waiters and waitresses that I have had have always been very helpful and friendly. The only downside to the restaurant is that it can get quite noisy when it's full. I would definitely recommend making a reservation, as it does get full, especially on the weekends. read more

The atmosphere is almost industrial looking with scattered chair types. We were able to be sat instantly despite not having a reservation. Service was great as well. Cocktails were pricey but the beer was average price but good.The idea behind sharing food is amazing, although it is hard to gauge how much food you will need (we ended up having to order more). There are plenty of choices to go out and have so if your in the mood for something, but not sure what I would recommend this place. Just prepare for a decent size bill. It was 120 for 4 of us. We still have to go back an have the burger read more

What nice bar tenders. That really saved this place as I was so pissed they wouldn't seat us without a reservation when there were so many spots available. Not to self make reservations. The drinks were nice and strong. The food was interesting and you could tell it was a quality kitchen but I thought many flavors were off. The mozzarella frittata was strange and not creamy but rather salty and tasted as though had Asian influences. Other items that stood out were the summer tomato polenta which was full of flavor and let the tomatoes shine and the white pizza which was perfectly sweet and salty. It is in a beautiful space and has a very open feel. Good spot for drinks or dinner with friends. read more

This review is long over-due. We have visited Good Luck several times and it totally filled our desires to visit a trendy Brooklyn NY restaurant (which we miss by the way). The interior, decor, and ambiance are wonderful. The open-style kitchen is also great! You will have to try braised oxtail w/ tripe, lentil soup and of course the Good Luck Burger!! Enjoy! read more

This is probably by far my favorite restaurant in Rochester, NY! Great food, cocktails, staff, and super relaxing environment.

if you want to have a bougie fun time come here. This place just screams classy deliciousness. Great vegan options and vegetarian options. Drinks are also pretty good. The atmosphere is very relaxed, cute. Great place to go for date nights. this is just my go to favorite restaurant in Rochester. read more

Seriously delicious and a lot of fun for a group of friends.

I went with a large group so we were able to order a variety of dishes to share. Everything was amazing! I highly recommend the burger and board noodles! read more

We had a huge group of consultants that were there for numerous projects. There was something for everyone! They constantly had different people bringing food and drinks, so no waiting on anything. Our bill was around $1,000, but we had drinks, 16 people and swear we ordered at least one of everything! Great food, great service, and a must see if in Rochester, NY. read more
