Pricey but you get your money's worth. Burgers are delicious and add-ons will increase the price. Whether you get any or not the typical condiments (including your choice of spread) is filling. I had the onion rings but the fries looked delicious. The milkshake I ordered was unique according to the clerk. I combined peanut butter and coconut. To die for! You can add two flavors in any shake/malt for no charge. Take advantage of that if you can. read more

Tiny little hole in the wall burger place I found on Yelp a few months back. The teenager and i were out running errands, he got hungry (surprise surprise), and this place looked like a decent option. It was a Saturday during lunch rush so it was busy! Prices are very reasonable. Portions are average. Quality is mid/average. But overall nothing to write home about. Would i go out of my way to go here again? No. read more

I had this place on my list of places to check out and happened to finally be in the area. it is in a small strip mall parking lot and all the buildings are in the older section, Upon walking in we were greeted immediately and took a couple minutes to look at the menu I had decided to get the 1/2 lb burger which is basically a double cheeseburger with all the fixings , I had made it a meal and chose to do the onion rings which were really good and not soggy. The burger was a good size and real good . If you're looking to eat inside it is very small only about 5 or 6 tables but service was fast and efficient. read more

The burger looked nothing like the picture. Very disappointing. Burger didn't seem to have much seasoning. It was just an okay burger. The price was good though. The hot dog was delicious and the cheese sticks didn't disappoint. The lady didn't really show us too much attention, she was eating food herself. The ambience was blah. I didn't care for it. I don't think I would be back just because biting stood out. read more

Ordered burger with green chile and butterfinger shake to go. Went home and devoured burger, very good. Shake incredibly thick so straw was useless. Scooped shake into cup and ate . Halfway thru found plastic bag, gag. Called Luckys back and explained issue. Person gave me a cell phone number and asked for picture. Sent pic and didn't hear anything. Was before Thanksgiving so maybe owner gone, unknown. Super disgusting, was a shame as burger was excellent but won't risk it. Yikes! read more

Lucky's Burgers & Shakes - Found plastic bag in shake , not yummy , 11/24/25 - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I live at least half an hour away from Lucky's, but regardless of the distance, it is worth the drive. My discovery of Lucky's was when I was looking at some of the highest-rated burger places in the Phoenix area on Yelp. From the first visit, I can see why it has an excellent rating. It is among my favorite burger places and a contender for the best burger in Arizona. On my first visit, I got a triple burger with fries and a milkshake. The milkshake contained butterscotch and Oreos. Butterscotch and Oreos are a combination that often gets overlooked. It is an impressive combination. The burger and fries are among the best I have ever had. I like how much spice that is placed on the fries. Just the right amount and not overbearing. The burgers are a little on the thin side, but they are delicious and juicy. I also appreciate that they offer a variety of sauces to accompany the burgers. The house-made Thousand Island sauce is delicious, and it tastes much better than the kind you find in stores. I also like the old-school atmosphere. With many pictures along the walls, it feels like you are in a classic diner, taking a trip back in time. While the food and atmosphere are excellent, the best part is the service. The owner, Marvin, is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. Every time I have walked in, he has greeted me with a warm smile, asking how my day was going, and has been patient with me whenever I needed some time to figure out what I would like to have that day. You can tell that he cares about everyone in his business having a great experience. For such great food, the prices are very reasonable. Although I do not visit the area very often, I always stop by Lucky's Burgers and Shakes whenever I am in the area and recommend it to anyone seeking a great burger place in Phoenix. read more

I am baffled by the high ratings. My husband and I each got 1/2lb cheeseburgers. The beef was bland as can be. I don't believe there was any salt or pepper on this burger, or any other seasoning at all. I asked for toppings on the side, which they did for me. My husband asked for a regular burger with bbq sauce and his arrived plain with nothing but meat and cheese. Fries were seasoned decently. The best part about our trip was a chocolate malt shake which was absolutely delicious. For the money, portions were good. The burger was supposed to be the shining star of this place and it fell way short. Service was friendly. We would return for a malt shake and perhaps try a fresh lemonade which they make in house. Please season your burgers and consider cooking in butter to add moisture and flavor. read more

The burger was ice cold, The patty was a thin piece of meat, cheese was cold imitation sliced cheese. Shredded lettuce, tomato and pickles. The bun was dry and cold too Fries were formerly frozen, cooked in old grease Overall I was very disappointed and we don't be returning. read more

Tried Lucky's for the first time and totally get the high ratings. I had the 1/4 lb burger with 1000 island, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, and green chili--plus fries and a strawberry shake. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a classic burger joint. My partner Jeff is hard to impress, and even he gave it two thumbs up after his 1/2 lb burger, onion rings, and Dr Pepper. The menu is simple, which lets the food shine--no gimmicks, just great burgers and shakes done right. We'll definitely be back. read more

The food is like.... like mom made a delicious sandwich for you. We got a friendly greeting when we walked in and were asked if we were referred by anyone.

Just happened to stumble on this hole in the wall privately owned shop. Menu was simple. Can't go wrong with any of their menu items. Fun fact: they landed on a list for one of the top 10 burger joints in the US (2018). We ended up going with a couple of 1/4 pounders with fries. Service was quick and on point as things came out fast. Burgers also tasted great as expected! Will definitely swing by again for a quick bite. read more

Not sure how this is rated so high. The burger was good but everything else was mediocre at best. The location is a sketchy strip mall and the restaurant doesn't even have a bathroom! Isn't that against health code? The fries were gross. Super dry and unflavored even though they were covered in salt. read more

Great burger, French fries and onion rings were great.. Friendly staff Seating area was clean and open for the space read more

Let me start, I am very confused on the ratings of this place and how they're so good. The people that are working in there have no personality. The floor had just been mopped and my feet were literally sticking to it. The burger tasted like nothing better than McDonald's. The best part about our experience was the onion rings. I will not be going back. read more

Super excited to try this place but it was underwhelming considering the stellar reviews. Food was good not amazing. I would absolutely go again but it would never be my favorite. Customer service was great! The girl who helped us was incredibly nice and attentive. She apologized for our wait and said it was her first day... I would have thought she owned the place by her attentive service. She was 10/10. Milkshakes were a big no. read more

We used to be frequent Lucky's customers. Following our last visit, we probably won't be back anytime soon. We ordered: two chicken sandwiches, four cheeseburgers (a single and two doubles, and a triple), and four shakes. No sides or fries which are sold separately. Our total was $82. For that cost, we expected fresh, well-cooked food. We received the opposite. The buns were stale (first time I've ever experienced that problem at a BURGER restaurant). The meat (chicken and burgers) was dry, overcooked, and bland. We couldn't detect any sauce and had to add our own at home. The only positives were (most of) the shakes. The strawberry-banana was awful. They used a fresh banana but strawberry syrup - what?! Pick a lane. And pick another restaurant. Lucky's is no longer it. read more

I decided to try out Lucky's and I am so glad I did! The team at Lucky's is so friendly and efficient. The inside of Lucky's is pretty small, maybe about 6-7 tables. Lucky( ;p ) for me I went for take-away. The food is amazing. BBQ bacon burger with chili cheese fries and a chocolate milkshake. I ate it so fast I think i forgot to chew! It was so good! If you want to try a local burger spot, you should really give Lucky's a shot! read more

I was so bummed to find this place. Not because it's bad, but because it's great, but I live 40 miles away! I've been looking for a Southern California-style, good-ole burger joint, all over the Phoenix Valley. I've found a couple of decent ones, but Lucky's really nailed it. One of the best burgers I've had, the best malt I've had, and certainly the best and most personalized service. This place is in a run-of-the-mill strip mall that saw its best years in the 70's. That bodes well for a burger joint! That's where the real stuff comes from. And Lucky's didn't disappoint. What a great burger. So what made it great? Well, burgers rise and fall based on their sauce. That's the main thing. Then, the patty. And that means flavor and texture. Then you have to have a soft-but-substantial bun. Nobody likes those finicky "pretzel" buns or the schmancy "brioche"buns. No. Just give me a good, classic burger bun. And this is. The burger sauce is a variation of thousand but it's house-made. No vinegary, institutionalized sauce here. This has a creamy, somewhat sharp, smooth flavor. It's an excellent burger sauce and harkens back to the beat 1960s burger joints. The patty is a solid, tasty, perfectly-cooked beef patty. It's char grilled and tastes like a burger should: bold yet balanced. It is excellent! Pair it with the sauce, bun, and fixings (you have the choice of many additions- from jalapeños to green chilis to tomatoes and beyond. Something for everyone. I like the classic onions, lettuce, tomato, and cheese. By the way, the fries are REALLY good. They are slightly seasoned and taste like they're fried in something other than cheap, truck-lubricant canola oil. The malt is the best I've had anywhere. Their ice cream (which is the base of any good shake or malt) is really, really good. It's not the cheapie restaurant supply crap they have most fast food places. The owner made me a cherry-chocolate shake just to try it, and it was phenomenal. The shakes here are the BEST. No joke. And last is the service. The owner was so helpful and kind and enthusiastic and helpful. It's so refreshing to not be "helped" by a bored, clueless, miserable 17-year old just waiting to be off and run home. The owner runs the place and it shows. Excellent service and a clean place. Add that to the fanTAStic burger, and you e got a winner. What I wouldn't give to move these guys to the West valley!!!! PS- the prices are absurdly cheap. read more

Super tasty, staff was very nice and burgers, fries and shakes were very good. We will be back again soon.

Yes this place was pretty good I had three-quarter pounder with just mayonnaise and some barbecue sauce and some onion rings.. between the whole family there were 6 of us everyone was happy.. love supporting the little small and pops businesses.. read more

I wanted to love Lucky's. Friendly staff in an unassuming shopping center...I thought from the reviews I was stumbling into a hidden gem. The burger just wasn't up to par. The meat in the triple burger was a bit off - it tasted unseasoned and really just not quality meat. The bun was forgettable as well. How a burger joint doesn't operate with Brioche Buns in today's world is beyond puzzling. They need more cheese options as well and a fried egg add on. On a positive note, the homemade 1000 island and diced onions were a nice addition to the burger. Hopefully Lucky's makes some upgrades in these two areas and I could see it being. read more

This is a hidden gem! Located in behind a taco shop. We weren't sure it would be open Labor Day weekend. We were happy to see the lights on . Walking in it was super clean and we were greeted by the guy behind the counter. I ordered a burger he explained the sauces and veggies for the burger. Three size beef patties . We both ordered 1/4 pounder 1 w/ thousand island sauce the other bbq sauce w/green chili. Fries were seasoned perfectly with a seasoning salt mix. Plus if you let the chili and beef juice run into the fries... so good! One order of fries was enough to share. We were ask a couple times if there was anything we needed and how the food was. The list of shakes was tempting we thought maybe for dessert. We will be back for sure maybe even for just the shake! For your entertainment the walls have lots of old fashion signs which are pretty funny. This has to be the best place to grab a great burger for a great price. I sure hope they stay in business. It was $20 for 2 burgers fries and one drink. Fast food is more expensive and not the quality. This has all fresh veggies and fries made for your order. Thanks yelp another great place we found from your reviews. read more

I actually found about this place via Instagram. Had never heard of it, but I wasn't far away so I decided to stop in for lunch. The place is small, but people move through pretty quickly. The menu is small, but has all the essential items for a good burger shop. The milkshake menu is quite good as well. I opted for a 1/2 lb burger with homemade 1000 island and the normal toppings. It was cooked to perfection - crusty, salty, and a nice charcoal flavor. I opted for French fries as well. They were crispy and hot. Service was fast and friendlier. All around good experience. Will rerun. N*joy. read more

Tucked away in a little shopping plaza off 19th Ave and Cactus, you'll find this amazing little gem of a burger place. I can't say enough good things about Lucky's Burgers & Shakes. Let's start with the burgers... absolutely incredible! They have the most flavorful, juicy burger patty, topped with their homemade sauces, and then the regular burger toppings -- lettuce, tomato, onions, cheese. Sure it may sound like a regular ole burger but it's not. I don't know what they do but it's been a long time since I've found a place with a burger THIS good. Then their fries. OMG the fries!!! They're seasoned to perfection, and made fresh to order. They're my favorite; and ones that I don't mind if my kids eat the whole order -- actually I encourage it. And then, I think they're the only place around town where I've found this divine indulgence -- a coffee milkshake! This isn't an iced coffee drink, no. This is the creamy, let's-not-count-the-calories-treat-yourself kinda dessert drink that will elevate your mind and mood, while satisfying your sweet tooth. They've got plenty of other milkshake flavors but the coffee one is divine and my go-to. The service is top-notch, and we've felt like family each time we stop in... that's partly why we love Lucky's so much. The staff takes the time to connect with their customers and you definitely don't feel like you're just a number or just an order here. The dine-in area is small and intimate, and, although we haven't stayed to eat (it's tough to go out with littles), it's clean and inviting. Lucky's burgers, I think WE are the lucky ones for finding you! read more

Had the 1/2 lb hamburger. It was big. Couldn't finish it. So delicious! The fries were nice and hot. Best hamburger I've had in a long time

Best burger of my entire life. Genuinely had a ratatouille moment with every bite. Please do yourself a favor and stop by.

Really good food. I heard about the burgers (my husband had the 1/2 pound) but I tried the grilled chicken sandwich and it was wonderful. Fresh and tasty! And they have some of the best fries anywhere. Didn't try a shake/malt today, but definitely next time! And when they say "fresh squeezed lemonade ", they mean it! read more

Lucky's Burgers & Shakes - Fresh lemonade - American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Food is good, large portions for a fair price. Service left a little to be desired, the staff brings the food to the counter and calls for you to come pick it up. It would literally be less than 6 unimpeded steps to bring the food to any table in the restaurant (there are only 7 tables). Again, food was good, so it gets 4 stars. A little extra effort on the staff's part and this would be a solid 5 stars! (I know - 1st world problems, but it is the little gestures that make a good experience a great experience) read more

Food is amazing. Great burgers and fries. Will try the corn dogs next time. Simple fare. Quality over menu quantity. Will return.

So, we visited after having a taste for burgers and read the reviews on Yelp. The service was friendly and fast . We ordered 1/4 pound burgers and shakes. The good service is where it ended. The burgers need to be seasoned, they were just ok at best, just a tasteless beef patty. less condiments on the burger and a little more seasoning. The shakes were, well, just ok. Plus, a restaurant with no bathroom for their guests. Like I said just ok at best. read more

Well..I was hoping for better, but it was a rather pedestrian meal. The hamburger, bun and dicesd onions were average at best and nothing stood out. I chose Thousand Island and added bacon on 1/4 pounder, but nothing g special. Also annoying was 15 shake flavors, but all use vanilla soft serve base. The cinnamon shake was not a good choice. read more
