The drinks and apps were fine.
It was hard to find a place to stand without feeling as if you were in the way when the band was playing on a recent Sunday night.

Lucky's is a great place for brunch for Sinatra Sundays but the crowds on the weekends can get a little sketchy. Great music and the drinks aren't too expensicce.
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 7/20/2009 - Lucky's is a Great neighborhood bar/lounge!It's great for after work or later in the evenings. One side of the bar is set up a little more casual and the other feels like an old eclectic retro lounge. The often have live music which is really great. The crowd is usually a good mix. Make sure you check out Sinatra Sundays!

The bartenders were nice and not as snobby as most lounges around here. And the drinks were good and we didnt have to wait for them either which is always a plus. The music was great. But the bathrooms were disgusting and the place felt dirty. The mini burgers were awesome but the fried chicken was horrible. Th...

I live in Southie and they're definitely getting a new regular in me. I had the steak tips and they were absolutely delicious, by far the best I've had in a while. The waitress was charming and took quite good care of us and that was even before she knew the it was our first time. When she did find out she explain...

I love this place! Some coworkers and I went there for the first time last Friday night after work. The food, drinks, atmosphere- it is the perfect after work spot, but you end up staying all night!
What sets this place apart from other trendy area bars is that food is awesome. Everything we ordered was delicious- make sure to try the mini burgers- the best in the city!
Other pluses- frie...
Read More On Citysearch CityChick08 7/1/2008 - Very Disapointed!Well Luckys used to be my favorite but its definetely been going down hill.....drinks are still good and strong but everything else isnt so great lately. Out of convenience I still go there pretty often but if you make a reservation don't expect them to remember. My food has been cold the last 2 times I have gone there and the brunch menu is weak its more like an expensive breakfast menu. But ...
Read More On Citysearch matchmat 6/30/2008 - Over priced and under satisfied...Friday night some co-workers and I headed around the corner to Lucky's for dinner and a couple drinks. As Lucky's is so close to the office, it is often frequented by our co-workers, and despite the hefty price tags came highly recommended. Three of us arrived first, with two more to follow an hour later. We were quickly seated at a table for 5-6 people by the smiling hostess, the only employee w...
Read More On Citysearch sgacek 3/4/2008 - LuckysLuckys is one of my favorite places to grab a drink after work. The people who go there are a younger crowd (well at happy hour they are), and it is a great place to hang out for a little bit with friends.
Can be expensive for people on a budget....
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 1/29/2008 - Favorite Place in BostonI love Lucky's! Surprisingly there food is excellent in fact I think it's the best food in Southie. The staff's friendlier than any other place in boston. I can't wait to watch the Pat's game there on Sunday and then stay for Sinatra night. Holiday Weekends are alway's fun there. Last week I went Saturday night for drinks with my girlfriends and then went back for brunch the next day.
Read More On Citysearch wow14555 1/18/2008 - A good place to check outWent to lucky's on a Friday night recently and was reminded of why my friends and i use to go on a regular basis. I hadn't been in a while and noticed some good new food and drink items. The fish tacos were great. And the mini burgers are always a good time. I loved the new rasberry mojito. The band was great, i think it was Alex MacDougal. Its a good mixed crowd and usually busy on friday nights...
Read More On Citysearch bostonborn11 10/3/2007 - Run Down, Dirty, Poor Service & StaffWas there on a recent Saturday evening with a group of friends. It was our first and last time! The establishment itself was very dirty and dark. Bottles and Cups everywhere. Unfriendly Bartenders that took a long time to acknowledge you even standing there waiting for a drink. Music was mediocre. Overall, not a good time.
Read More On Citysearch mikeyb78 8/25/2007 - Go for Sinatra Sunday nightsFood is straight-up three star diner (nachos, salad, steak are nothing to write home about), but if you're going to Sinatra Sundays, you're not going for the food, anyway. The Al Vega Trio with guest Sinatra singer (I believe it was Adam Herbet recently), is just amazing (though they take breaks very frequently, sometimes Herbert would take breaks mid-song!). The atmosphere is retro, dark, and ...
Read More On Citysearch calla432 7/17/2007 - One of our favorite spots!Strange.....after looking thru all the reviews, the two negative ones are extremely suspicious. How could that be? We've gone to Lucky's numerous times and have always had a great experience. In addition to the great eats, drinks and atmosphere, the biggest reason we keep going back is the awesome staff. The two reviews sting of some kind of personal issue. Get some class and learn how to be...
Read More On Citysearch jswisher 5/10/2007 - great bar, music, drinks, overall atmosphereI've been going to lucky's for quite a few years and have always enjoyed myself and had a good experience there. my friends love it too. the atmosphere is awesome. the music is great. the food is good. the drinks are great. the staff and management are really nice and helpful. sounds like a recent reviewer had a bad experience there, but that is the first time I have ever heard anything bad ...
Read More On Citysearch japd1988 5/10/2007 - Fantastic Post-Work SpotMy co-workers and I absolutely love this place! It is very chill, the music is great, the drinks, food, and staff are even better. In fact, this place is so fantastic, we've become regulars! Try the weekly mini-burgers and the Rhode Island style calamari - very tasty! There is a great mix of people and the atmosphere is really comfortable. The security is not rude or imposing like in many places....
Read More On Citysearch djbutler 5/6/2007 - Hmmm....Kind of funny how the last couple of comments were left on the same date and referred to the same comment I last made about this place. Fishy!!! Well, you can like this place all you want, but just watch out for your credit card being "accidentally" given to the bartender's roommate, which was a classic excuse by the way!! And you don't have to worry, whomever you may be, my friends and I will...
Read More On Citysearch cmwright05 4/25/2007 - Unprofessional Staff, Unsafe Environment!!!!!I was at Luckys Lounge on a recen Saturday evening and witnessed an altercation as I was leaving the bar between a female bartender and a female customer of the bar. I am not sure as to what had happened but from what I gathered the customer was closing out her tab for the eveing and apparently the bartender had given the customers credit card to her roommate supposedly by mistake and that ro...
Read More On Citysearch dianemcd 4/23/2007 - Best Mini Burgers in the City!!!!!!Went Lucky's last night with some of my friends. We had the most amazing little burgers, such a great snack for a group of people to share. We then all had dinner and it was awesome. I love hanging out at Lucky's it is such a cool place...Oh yeah the bartenders make a great MArtini and the music kills!!!!...
Read More On Citysearch stephcam 8/9/2006 - fabulousI've had several good experiences here. The place has a great vibe, and reliably great music. There is dancing too (when there is room), if you are up for the Sinatra swing. I love that there is no sign, and it is relatively easy to get to and to find parking. The food is also decent and reasonable. Make sure to go on a Sunday night (it can be a little quiet at other times).
Read More On Citysearch nenaghgirl 1/17/2006 - User review by smatbratlets start with this statement
" too crowded most nights after 8, often too loud and way too much smoke " Lady there hasn't been smoking in bars since 2003.
Best food, best drinks, best Sinatra, and best secret. and when you walk inteh door, dont complain that there is no sign. It's not there to keep people who complain out!
Read More On Citysearch smatbrat 12/6/2005 - I love this placeI first went to Lucky's a few months after it first opened a few years ago. I loved it then and I still do now. The one complaint many people had then, including myself, was that it was extremely smokey (and I am a smoker)! Problem solved since there is no smoking in Boston bars anymore. Great place to hang out with friends and listen to some great live music. I am not much of a mixed drink p...
Read More On Citysearch pepe01 8/24/2005 - what a great spot!I didn't know what to expect when going to lucky's. A friend had told me about it and said I had to check it out. There is no sign, just a corner entranceway so it is a little tricky to find the first time but well worth the effort. I had a fantastic dining eperience, both the food and the drinks were fantastic. Just as I was finishig my meal the live entertainment started, I don't know the na...
Read More On Citysearch jhstn 8/13/2005 - Go for the musicIt's a fun place to go before heading downtown, but Lucky's is not my favorite place to hang out on a regular basis - too crowded most nights after 8, often too loud and way too much smoke - although the decor and atmosphere are very, very cool, and the food is good. The Al Vega Trio rock, and I heard Mark Mahar is back - hope the rumors are true. He is hands down the best Sinatra in Boston and p...
Read More On Citysearch lostinboston 1/31/2005 - Great Food!!!My friends and I had been to Lucky's many times to drink after work and on weekends, but have never eaten there. I decided to give it a try about a month ago and now I find myself eating there whenever I have the chance. The pizza specials are amazing as well as the turkey wrap. What is better than eating GREAT food, having a beer and listening to Sinatra on a Sunday night???
Read More On Citysearch lucyluck 9/2/2004 - Lucky'sthis a great place to go and have a nice martini and have fun with friends or even to meet people.
Read More On Citysearch jfksb 2/7/2003 - Not my favorite...The decor inside the bar is very 1970's, but NOT in a cool new retro way. It was very crowded which was uncomfortable. I don't enjoy being shoved and knocked around all night. The smoke is thick, I'm a smoker and in this place even my eyes were burning. The guys inside were creepy and there is no coat check, only a coat rack which makes it an impossible, hour long task, at the end of the night t...

Read More On Citysearch gevans5603 1/10/2003 - Fabulous bar, not so fabulous foodThis was a great bar- lots of fun, lots of people and best of all lots of Frank! You'll be fine as long as you stick to the bar but I would avoid eating there because the food is brutal! Otherwise it is a great place to hang out!
Read More On Citysearch lmitschele 11/27/2002 - This bar is wicked pissaThis is one of the best bars in Boston. Great atmosphere--looks like something out of Pulp Fiction or out of the 70's. Great drinks, very nice staff, hot chicks, live music..........Saturday nights gets pretty crowded, but one side has the music, the other has a bunch of booths like a diner almost.
They also have great food--especially the wings.
Read More On Citysearch candogg 11/19/2002 - Get Lucky!This place is great. Especially if you are a Frank Sinatra fan, every time I have been there I hear a few songs by him. Very chill atmosphere with pretty friendly employees. It does tend to get a bit packed, so go before 10!
Read More On Citysearch 7daisies 11/14/2002 - swingers (movie)One of the best bars that I've been to in Boston, and I've been to most if not all. If you want ambience, class, excellent live music (covers stevie wonder, frank sinatra ect...). All around laid back good time not to mention the women..very nice. This is what a lounge should be! Very much the Swingers movie atmosphere. Very much not the norm for Boston. Excellent singles scene.
Read More On Citysearch martin_caney 9/21/2002 - GO TO LUCKY'SThis is one of the most unique bars in Boston, in my opinion.... a "speak-easy" of sorts, with great food and top-notch live entertainment.
Read More On Citysearch hugheka 8/8/2002 - Get Lucky!I love going here to hang out with the ever sexy after work crowd. The food is good, if a bit overpriced - but the drinks are excellent and so is the company
Read More On Citysearch joshuaglynn 8/6/2002 - ImpressedI went into Lucky's on a Wed. night, and the most amazing band was playing! Ray Green is unbelievably talented. I was reading some other reviews about drinks being over priced, and had to write my own review! You need to get out more if you think Lucky's is overpriced! The mood, the staff, the music, all made it worthwhile!
