Standing alone next to a busy road, next to Burger King no less, sits Lucky's Burger shack. Long on character and short on parking, we gave it go on a busy Tuesday. Some call it a dive bar, some are more generous; are there sticky tables, servers with tattoos, a busy bar were suds and cheaper whiskey prevail, and original paint? You bet! Let's get to the food. Lucky's menu features a variety of burgers, salads, wings, hotdogs and sides. Don't expect beer on tap, but an extensive selection of bottled beer should satisfy most folks. We ordered a Black and Blu burger with onion straws and a patty melt with fries. From the time we walked in until our food arrived probably took about 25 minutes. That was our own fault as we took way too long deciding what to order. When our food arrived, I immediately dug into the well constructed burger. I could barely open my mouth wide enough. And the taste? Very tasty. My wife enjoyed her patty melt--a burger on marbled rye with cheese and cooked onions that holds up surprisingly well! My onion straws were crunchy and sweet. Fries weren't great, but all in all an enjoyable burger experience. Oh, did I mention entertainment? Well on Tuesdays you can grab a free bingo card and try your luck winning a gift card! Try Lucky's today! read more

Yelp never leads me wrong. Wanted a casual local spot for Sunday burgers enroute from Charleston to Asheville. Lucky's was a perfect location just off 26 in Irmo. The Lucky burger and patty melt were solid choices. Waitresses were speedy and friendly. Nice outdoor patio and game room. LONG list of beers offered! read more

When you're looking for a fun, laid back dive bar with great food, Lucky's is your place. It looks so unassuming from the outside, but having tried several menu items, you can't go wrong. My favorite is the chicken philly cheesesteak. There's such a great option of beers and wines and the service is always outstanding. It's a little out of nowhere for us, but we look forward to every visit! read more

I got an awesome patty melt with the tater tots. A great patty and nice divey vibe. I plan to be back soon!

This place is awesome. Great food, great employees and customers. Can't go wrong here, unless you park in BK parking lot. We are lucky to have Lucky's. Chief read more

Service was great! Atmosphere even better! Great night out! Foot amazing as well! And was so close to home!

Lucky is always great. Staff is super friendly and their specials are good. I get here once a month and they always remember my name.

Great service perfect place to stop before 20 on our way the Charleston! Good cold beer.

Love this place! Amazing food, and the bartenders are amazing! Everyone here is the reason I'm a regular

This is my number one spot. I recommend People too for burgers that I bring from out of town or have friends from across town who never heard of it before. I felt a little awkward when I first came in there, however that quickly changed when both customers and employees became very friendly and welcoming and kind. I have yet to try anything on the menu that I did not like. However, my go to is always the burgers. read more

Lucky's is a great local bar in Irmo. I'm sure everyone knew I wasn't local but that didn't keep them from being friendly and welcoming. they have a great selection of canned and bottled beer. They also have some amazing burgers. The bartender said her favorite thing to eat is the chicken Philly. Regardless, I had the Lucky's burger. It was cooked perfectly and piled high with mushrooms and onion strings. It had fresh lettuce and tomato and tasty pickles. I added tots and a couple of beers. They have a number of TVs and I was lucky to be there during March Madness. Overall, a great experience and I'll definitely swing by any time I'm in the area. read more

What a fun experience! I could have stayed all day reading the signs. The waitresses and owner were so welcoming! And it was Friday and seafood was on the menu!

A very typical hole in the wall bar. The food is great and people are always friendly and welcoming. Food is your go-to bar food.

Lucky's Burger Shack is a dive bar in Irmo with GREAT PRICES SERVICE, and BEST BURGERS IN TOWN. On certain days, I just need a Bud Lights vs. a micro brew. Try $2.25 each . Coming from Dallas TX, I haven't seen a beer price like this in 10 years. There are 15 person indoor bar and outside bar/entertainment area as well. Dogs are welcomed on the patio. Next was the Philly loaded and Lucky Burger. A real 6 oz burger and hand cut fries or tater tots for less than $10. They also have a 12 oz burger version for $13. All of the food is southern and damn good. The wait staff is VERY friendly and wouldn't stop asking how I could be served. 1st time in this location and won't be my last. More pics coming!!! read more

Lucky's has got one of the best burgers around. I love that they have fried okra here in okra strut town!! Always been good the many times being here. Friendly atmosphere but the parking could be better. Last time we were here though the service was not the same . Our waitress was not on hand the best. Forgetful and very slow but that won't stop us from returning. read more

Let me tell you, I don't typically eat burgers and cannot remember if I've ever actually ordered one but I did here upon recommendation of our waitress. I am soooo glad I did! It was delicious! The best burger I've ever eaten actually. It was well seasoned and cooked perfectly! I love that you have the option to get it in a wrap as well if you want to. Many different options and types! The tater tots were a hit as were the fries and of course homemade ranch! Highly recommend! read more

Great little burger place. Parking is limited but we simply waited a few minutes for someone to leave. My wife and I both got burgers. Very juicy and cooked to order. Fries could have been a little crispier. read more

Fantastic small town burger with a great environment. The food is great and reasonably priced. The staff and service are awesome!

Kind of a hole-in-the-wall dive bar vibe with efficient servers who liberally use the words "Honey" and "Darlin'". Good food and drinks. I had the house specialty burger and fries and they were very good! read more

Love this place. Burgers are great of course. But the beef pot roast special at lunch is outta this world good.

Very good food. Great lunch specials. Parking can be extremely difficult. Located off busy road.

Hubby and I had a great lunch date! We were able to grab a high top right away and were promptly greeted. Plenty of beer to select from and a full bar. Hubby had wings which he liked! And chicken nachos, excellent cheesy goodness. I had the Buffalo wrap, grilled chicken with mild sauce. The wraps do not come with a side but you can add to make a "basket." 4 beers, wings, nachos and a wrap - about $50 Great customer service! Prompt service Friendly staff read more

Amazing wings and very nice people there. The parking lot was full of locals so we knew the food would be great.

Hands down...the best burger in the Columbia, SC area. Great ambiance. One could sit at the bar and drink all day and get really delicious food while doing so. I had the basic cheeseburger and fries. They use 100% Angus beef and the seasoning was perfect. Fried seemed to be fresh cut and cooked to perfection. Hubby had the Black & Blue burger and he reported that it was delicious. A beautiful think slice of fresh tomatoes, sliced onion, and fresh green leaf lettuce made the burgers picture perfect. I need to get me a shirt next time I'm there. Good people..from bikers on Harleys to young families and grandparents. It's a special place that feels like a well-fitting glove. You can stay a while here...but not because of the service! read more

Food? amazing Service? amazing Atmosphere? amazing I mean, what else is there to say? Prices were really good (wife and I were shocked to see how low our bill was honestly), the food was absolutely fantastic, the servers were very friendly, and the overall atmosphere was 10/10. We'll definitely be back and I hope you give it a try! read more

This is the perfect burger place to hang out for drinks. It is very spacious but seems to get pretty busy. The burgers are very delicious and the fried pickles as you can see were devoured. Must try!! read more

There was a rat that scratched across my table, and the food was uncooked and the worst of all the waiter cussed me out

Love the food, location, atmosphere & staff. They are a fun bunch with lively personalities and plenty of selections for anyone's group. Kid friendly and with an outdoor setting as well they have a place to be respectively rowdy . Weekday specials are always a hit and I haven't made it to the Sunday brunch but I will soon read more

We arrived around 1230 busy place, many locals! Found seats, menu brought right away! Very helpful servers, informative! Everything is made to order! Great option you don't always see! Food came quickly, prepared as requested! Enjoyed reading all the fun signs! read more

Don't let the setting fool you! This neighborhood hangout is a favorite for a reason. The hamburgers are fantastic, hearty creations that leave the other burger joints in the dust. Hearty portions and tasty sides make this our new go-to whenever we have a burger craving. The beer is cold and the service swift. A winner! read more

We've been here a few times even though I live way across town. The food is definitely worth the drive. Their hamburgers are delicious! There is no comparison to their burgers with others from a chain or restaurant. The service and atmosphere is also good. We plan to keep coming back. Nothing is better than good food and drinks! read more

My husband and I have been here a couple of times. The burgers are great - just what you want from a burger! Juicy, fresh toppings, and cooked "just right." The fries were good, the company was delightful (this IS the kind of bar where you can talk to strangers - friends for the stay, whether it's an hour or three), and the beer selection was enough to keep us ordering. It's been a minute since we've been there - I started the review quite a bit ago - but that's more due to our schedule, than anything else. We keep saying, "Let's go back to Luckys," then life intervenes. read more

If this place was in a movie, one of three things would be happening here: 1. Some washed out country singer way past his prime is needed for some young gun to fulfill his or her destiny. The washed out fella is nearly passed out at the end of the bar. 2. The FBI is looking for the culprit to a crime/murder/kidnapping. They need the local skinny on some characters. These bartenders know the crowd and have their locals. 3. Some city slicker meets a beautiful and talented significant other and is going home to meet all her friends and family. This is the spot where he both meets the friends (and the old boyfriend, of course) and where he goes at the end to win her back (after the ever so obvious "lose" her scene). It's a local place with awesome atmosphere. There are plenty of bar games, friendly bartenders, and interesting people. With that said, this is totally a dive bar/burger joint. The food is nothing mind blowing, but it is tasty! Beer is cheap! No taps, plenty of bottle/can choices. Food was also cheap. Two beers (plus a round for the two guys next to me) and a burger only cost me 20 bucks. Service is exemplary. read more

Lucky's Burger Shack was a bit out of the way for us, but my husband was craving a burger and the reviews made Lucky's hop to the top of our list. We ordered the nachos for an appetizer. The nachos were great! We loved the queso and the amount of toppings. My only critique of the nachos would be that there weren't enough! For the price, I'd expect a big more; but they were still really good! We ordered the buffalo burger with tots, chicken fingers with a side salad, and the mini corn dog kid's meal. The buffalo burger was good, but not spicy at all. We definitely would have preferred it to be more spicy. The chicken fingers were DELICIOUS. They were so tender and the honey mustard that they were served with was good. The side salad was a bit slimy at the bottom and I can only guess that it was made ahead of time and left to sit until needed. The french fries were SO good. They were my favorite part of the meal. I'd definitely order the chicken fingers again but we'd probably not get the side salad or buffalo burger in the future and would opt to try a different type of burger. If you're checking out the menu for the restaurant, be sure to check their website. We looked at another website before visiting and the prices were WAY off. We paid $71 for an appetizer, 2 adult meals, 1 kid's meal, and a few beers... but you can't beat $2.25 beers. The restaurant was very busy and loud, but that was to be expected. We enjoyed the atmosphere and would likely return in the future. read more

Right off Interstate 26, which was very convenient. We were there right at lunchtime, and the place was hoppin'. We were seated immediately, and waitress took our drink order. Came back in just a few minutes and took our food order. Food came out in 10 to 15 minutes. My wife and I both got burgers. Meat was hanging off bun a couple of inches all around. Flavor of meat was great. We also got tater tots and onion straws, which were also delicious. Would definitely recommend. We would absolutely go back. read more

Me and my bf visit these business for the first time. Clearly they do not care for black people in their establishment because every white person was served before us. We ordered our food and it took an hour just for us to finally get our food after saying something about it. I notice people came in after us and got their food with no problem. I feel this location cater towards a certain demographic (white people). Would not recommend this place if you're of African American race like me and my bf. read more
