    Old school phone wall for the hot chicken hotline!!
    Rebecka Z.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]We kept passing by Lucky's Hot Chicken and admiring the fact that they made such a cool looking restaurant and left the historical integrity of the structure intact when it first opened and had been meaning to come by and try it out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We finally stopped in and I'm so glad that we did, I got the red velvet waffle with chicken strips and I wasn't anticipating for the waffle to have much of the red velvet flavor but it really did and that was pleasantly surprised. The three chicken tenders that come with it were huge, hot and juicy. I wasn't totally sure of the spice level so I went with "Feeling Lucky" which was pretty mild but still delicious and well seasoned. The mac and cheese was creamy and the flavor of the cheese sauce reminded me a little of cheez whiz so it brought back a little bit of childhood nostalgia that I really liked it. Not as good as a baked mac and cheese would be with the golden cheese crust on top but it was still good nonetheless. My husband got a chicken wrap with fried okra and he said it was really tasty, I snuck a couple of pieces of his okra and really enjoyed it!! What's his is mine, right? [[HIGHLIGHT]]The building is super cool and the decor is fun and unique and it's a great place to stop in for some hot chicken whether you're hanging out with friends or want a fun date spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Chicken MED Tenders

    Foods great! Inside of Chicken always white! Flavor always on point! And looks are always presentable!

    Phone call to them

    I love this spot!!!!! I live in Mesquite and I drove all the way home to eat. We ordered medium tenders with fries and a drink. Plus an 8 bone in wing combo with onion rings. They did not put them in the bag and when I called they blamed me for leaving before they could give them to me. Why was the order give to me as ready before they were placed in the bag? I paid $37.00 for two meals and didn't even get the full order. I called them and they just blamed me for leaving without them and just told me to pick them up. When I live 30 minutes away. They didn't even offer to make the fresh and then just said okay and hung up.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience reminds me of an old 50s diner that you see on TV.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great and super friendly. The food is freaking amazing. We just happen to drive by this place and it looked interesting so we decided to try it. So glad we did. One of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had in my life. Can't wait to go back and try some of the other yummy menu items. I'll probably grab a beer next time.

    Really well seasoned everything! Got the buffalo wings and they were average spice level- not too saucy, either. The mac n cheese also had a little heat but a pleasant amount in my opinion. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The retro atmosphere and staff were great as well![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Always drive past Lucky's and decided to give it a go. Was feeling a smash burger and they said they have one. Ordered the smash burger with fries, Mac and cheese and the tenders with medium heat. The "smash" burger wasn't really a flat patty but it was still good. The Mac and cheese was super watery, it was not the best to me. Fries were fresh and just regular crinkle fries. The tenders were the best thing and had a lot of flavor. Some with probably think it's over-seasoned. I got a side of the lucky sauce and that was a very good sauce. The food was all fresh and [[HIGHLIGHT]]it was a lot of room for seating and had a lot decor around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Idk if I'll go back. Maybe for the tenders..check em out.

    Big Lou Sandwich
    Sandi G.

    Pretty solid hot chicken place. Got the big Lou combo with shake fries to go plus a frozen margarita. Frozen cocktails for $6.99 is a steal! I got the medium hot level and it was a lot spicier than expected but still delicious.

    MED Tenders Mac N Cheese
    Jasmin S.

    This is my 2nd place coming here. 1st time was good, but I ordered the wrong spice level. This time I made sure I got the right level and customer service was good. The tenders came out cold and since we paid $31, we let the guy know about it. All they did was refry the same tenders, which made them super hard and crunchy (came out too quick for it to be fresh). I should have just asked for my money back. The place looks run down a bit since the first time I came. Bums inside and out, did not smell very good inside. Nice jams while eating but overall, I should have taken my money elsewhere.

    Oswaldo Q.

    The Big Lou sandwich was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really like the old school diner feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The season on the fries were great. Mac and cheese could be better. Overall, a great dining experience.

    This place is a gem. Been to hot chicken spots around the city and this topped them on a ton of aspects. The chicken sando is hella fresh and hits the spot hard. The ambiance is great too (mom and pop dinner feel). Even the price is hella reasonable Y'all gotta check it out! This is my new fav spot in the city. Pro tip: the feeling lucky is comparable to chick-fil-a spicy sandwhich

    Tenders and fries to-go
    Mackenzie S.

    This place looks so neat! I really wanted to like it but I was disappointed. The chicken looked seasoned but had no flavor. It was just the slightest taste of paprika. I don't know if it was an off day or what but there's better hot chicken elsewhere. At least the fries were good.

    Inside
    Clarissa S.

    Came to check this place bc I've heard good things about it. The inside looks super cool! The employees are very welcoming. I ordered the tenders & the boneless wings damn lucky flavored (medium) & I will say, IT WAS SPICY for medium. It was so good but hard to overcome the spice.

    Great meal!
    Rosa G.

    This place was so delicious!!! Food was a 10/10! On the other hand! CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS 1000/1000 such amazing workers! One of the managers I can't remember her name was (Carissa, maybe!) and the other one was Audrey I believe! They went above and beyond so awesome! They made the place so welcoming! great people!

    How many sauces are included with a meal?

    None you have to buy the sauces yourself

    Are fries included with the sandwich? I've been twice and ordered a sandwich both times. The first time the counter person said fries were included and I got them. The second time I ordered the same thing and there were no fries when I got home.

    I believe they aren't included! When I went this past weekend that was the case!

Typically, I rate based on several visits to get an overall picture of the place, but I will bypass the rule if the experience was exceptional (#1). Mike's was downright excellent. I ate the food warm and I ate it cold, and I'm still thinking about it. I tried to save some time by ordering online and also bypass any potential lines. Thankfully, there were none when I arrived, but a very full house of happy eaters despite being well past primetime lunch hours. The staff was friendly in the front but fielding many orders at the same time. I missed the literal pick up window outside, but was happy to get a gander of what it looks like inside. There's plenty of seating for groups and the place seemed a lot cleaner than the divey narratives folks emphasized. Prices were not astronomical, as I paid $14 and $13 for an order of 4 tenders + 2 sides, as well as 2 wings and 2 sides. The tenders were nothing like a Raising Cane's with skimpy portions and high price tags, instead it was plump, crispy, and perfectly fried. The accompanying sauces (Mike's sauce + buffalo sauce) were excellent additions and complimented the crispy fries. I was extremely impressed with the mac & cheese and very flavorful, mashed potatoes and gravy. The wings were no different: soft exterior with a nice crunch, meaty chunks off the bone, and wasn't too greasy. While the green beans weren't the most memorable side, the creamy corn was strangely addicting. Next time, I'm ordering the sides separately and in a large. I can only hope the other locations are just as good and will make good effort to visit them all. It's a rare occasion to be this infatuated with a place, but I'm confident it will be the first on my return list when I'm back in Dallas again. ___________ (#1) Or exceptionally bad.

When I arrived they had everything ready and it was all correct though.

Soy Garlic Sauce ($3.45): This sauce is bomb. Very thick but delicious on everything we put it on. We saved it because it was just too good to throw away. So Ddeok So Ddeok ($8.05): A skewer with fried rice cakes and mini sausages which was okay. The secret sauce was drenched all over it which was a bit too much for me. Fried Pickles ($8.05): The batter did not hold up well, and the pickles fell out and was pretty soggy. The batter itself was not bad and still had some crispiness to it though. Double Flavor Wings ($35.65): You get to choose two flavors with 8 wings each, and the wings were huge. We went with honey garlic and Gangnam style (black pepper sauce with garlic and onions) and added pickled radish. The flavors on both were actually pretty subtle and barely tasted the Gangnam sauce. The honey garlic had more flavor so we liked that one more. The fried chicken did not taste greasy though which was a plus, and the pickled radish is a must to balance everything out.
