Really great local dive. The food is cooked fresh. Very reasonably priced. I had the garlic shrimp which was served with rice and fries. Really simple, tasty food. The place is clean, with many booths and tables. Family owned and run. Our sweet server helped us choose our food items. Delicious food, served freshly cooked. Recommend! read more

I'm in town for a few days and just happened that i passed this place while driving around. I knew i had to try it. I love Peruvians food. I ordered the baked chicken with rice, black beans, and fried Yuca. The flavor was good for everything. The spicy green sauce is a nice flavor also. Gives the meal a little kick. It was a bit quiet while I was there. Music adds to the atmosphere. In all, the meal was good. Service was good. I could have used a little bit more of the beans and sauce. So I asked for a little bit more and got a whole order of black beans. Nice place. read more

This place is the best Peruvian place in town! Not only is the chicken excellent, but they have a lot of really amazing seafood dishes, and some other great traditional Peruvian items. Check it out! read more

I came in solo after work looking for something before going to a Hurricane's game. I've had a version of lomo saltado that I made myself so I wanted to try it by someone who knows what they are doing vs following a YouTube guy (food wishes) It was delicious and cooked up fast. I basically inhaled it with the side of rice. Very flavorful and the ingredients were great. Was pretty quiet in the evening but bet most of the traffic is lunch. I very much recommend. read more

Overpriced for microwaved food! Ordered 1/2 chicken and it was not fresh...even heard the microwave open and close several times while waiting on my plate and at that point I was the only one in the restaurant. Service was friendly but we have several other Peruvian restaurants in town, all of which are better and taste fresh! read more

Second time that I've been here .... I gotta say that it was much better than I remembered. The first time was over 5 years and honestly I left I bit disappointed so that is the reason I never came back. The mental scars have healed so I decided to try again. I ordered the lomo saltado and the arroz chaufa special and they were both good. We tried the ceviche as well and it was also good. The papa rellena was not really that good in my opinion though. I am Peruvian and I know that Peruvian food could be amazing so there is still room for Lucky Chicken to grow. I will try again .... Not sure when but there are a couple other dishes that I would like to try. . We'll see. I'll report back. read more

I was staying in a nearby hotel for a conference and had a carryout dinner from Lucky Chicken on two successive nights. Because I wanted something other than the many fast food/pizza/sports bar options available nearby, I decided to make Lucky Chicken my dinner option on both evenings. The first night, I had the Lucky 1/2 chicken, with sides of (white) rice and (black) beans and a house salad. The chicken was very well prepared -- tender, juicy, and tasty. The second night, I tried the Chaufa Especial -- combination fried rice, including chicken, beef, and shrimp. I also had a Tamalito (tamale) appetizer on the side. The rice was quite good, and the portion was generous -- easily enough food for two people. I also enjoyed the tamale. The place itself is just a basic strip mall dining spot, but based on the quality of the food I'd encourage you to give a try. Service was not that friendly in my experience, though. read more

Nice little place to visit. Service was a little on the slow side, but the food is on point. Would come back and try the other dishes on the menu. read more

I love Peruvian chicken! Been to several other places in the area, but this was my first time here. They have a family meal that is a whole chicken and 3 sides, and it's a LOT of food! Super fresh too! Highly recommended if you like rotisserie chicken. read more

Second time here. I must have liked it the first time. Quarter chicken was tiny. I felt that most of the meat fell off when they cut it. Four bites of chicken! Waitress should have been embarrassed to hand it to me. Good amount of rice but just a few bites of beans. Wish I took a picture. $25 with tip. Furious! Had an 11oz steak, potato, mushrooms and four rolls for less at a steakhouse earlier this week. read more

I purchased a chicken sandwich and fries. Pretty easy stuff. Unimpressed with finding bones in my sandwich as I'm chewing up the sandwich. I didn't feel very lucky. Who leaves bones in a sandwich? Taste wasn't there either. The whole time I was eating this I was thinking of how chi filet never lets me down. Health grade was pretty low too. B maybe? read more

I would love to write a nice review for this business. But after spending 15 minutes gathered around the computer with my family getting excited about the potential and placing an order, after 10 minutes more I get a call from GrubHub that the restaurant decided to close early and won't be making our food. Thanks for nothing. read more

Found out about this place thru Groupon. It's a Peruvian joint tucked away in a strip mall within the same vicinity as Bass Pro Shop. I honestly didn't have much expectations for the place but ended up quite surprised. Their menu had a wide selection of various dishes to choose from. We opted for takeout. Not knowing what would be good from their expansive menu and due to the complexity and pronunciations of the various dishes, we asked the guy taking our order for some recommendations. Based on his suggestions, we ordered an appetizer of Papas a la Huancaina and entrees of Saltado de Pollo and Tallarin Saltado de Pollo. The appetizer cost 7 bucks while the two chicken entrees cost 13 bucks each. The food had pretty good flavoring. One chicken dish was stir-fried with noodles, bell pepper, onions while the other was stir-fried with french fries, onions, tomatoes and came with rice. The portion sizes where bountiful. The appetizer we got was 4 slices of boiled potato and 2 egg halves doused with a yellow incan sauce sitting on a bed of lettuce leaf. Pretty good taste wise. You can ask for sauces too. They had a white sauce that tasted kind of like ranch and a red spicy sauce. Be careful with the red spicy sauce folks - I have a high heat tolerance and that sauce took me by surprise. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal. We'd likely visit again if in the area. Groupon for the place makes it really worth it. So give it a shot peeps! read more

The food was OK. The service friendly but it took a long. Time to get the food during a late lunch. Limo Saltado was plentiful with a nice runny egg but there wasn't much taste. Perhaps it should be more savory. The Empanada was OK but there was more potato filling than chicken. I heard they are well know for ceviche but did not try it. read more

Peruvian food done right! This food was amazing. Although the food took awhile to come out, it was well worth the wait. Besides, Peruvian food is meant to be consumed fresh, not pre-made or frozen. Grab a friend and sit down to talk while you wait for your food and get ready to remain silent as you eat your food! read more

Great Ceviche!!! The name makes you think that it is just chicken, but the ceviche is amazing.

I wish I had a picture of all the wonderful appetizers, dishes and home made gelato that the family gorged in minutes. Considering most of our Peruvian experiences have been franchised based, this Lucky Chicken Peruvian Cuisine is 10x tastier and more legit. So thankful to find this family ran business and supporting local artisans. read more

Delicious food and awesome servers! We got this wonderful waitress called Jackie she is so nice and gave us quick service. The food is so tasty. I am from Peru originally and this restarant impressed me a lot. Thank you, Lucky Chicken. read more

Tostones were dry and tasted old, maybe frozen? And yuca was also dry and just not good. Neither came with any sauce at all. When i called the restaurant, they said sauces had to be ordered separately, which is not true because i have had the sauces already. Very disappointed! read more

Great place to eat if you want some authentic Peruvian food. I have visited Peru a number of times and it is difficult to find a place in the states that has authentic Peruvian cuisine. This was a gem I stumbled upon and am glad I did. The ceviche was awesome as well as the other food I ordered. Would come back again for sure and recommend to others. read more
