Fun little place in Ohio City - everything is from scratch, and purchased locally. Menu is fun - lots of unique items my wife and would like to try. Only negative is that it is a bit pricy - my biscuits and gravy and my wife's egg sandwich were each $12. But, for a nice treat, we will be back.

Help behind the counter was good, server lacked refinement. Food was good but not worth the hype. Place was packed by 9:00 am on a Sunday. Both my boyfriend and I ordered the biscuits and gravy, black coffee, a scone, and a custard pastry. My boyfriend said he prefers my biscuits and gravy, I thought they were good but didn't... More

We were driving through Cleveland on a road trip and read about Lucky's on the food network website. This place is delicious. My husband ordered the Reuben sandwich (neither of us like sauerkraut at all), but our waiter assured us it's not like any sauerkraut you've ever had....he was so right! It was awesome. The corned beef is so fresh... More

We came here on a Sunday afternoon on the recommendation of a business associate staying in Independence on a long-term assignment. We did not have a reservation and it was packed, but it was worth the wait. There were 4 of us, everyone loved their meals. I had the best fresh asparagus omelette I think I've ever had. My husband... More

I don't think you can go wrong ordering anything off the brunch menu. The prices are high for breakfast, but everything tastes fresh. The portions are big too. I am addicted to their hot sauce. It's tasty.

TripleD got it right with this one. The breakfasts are awesome, except for the granola, I wasnt pleased with that. But everything else was fantastic.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. The special of the day (chicken and goat cheese omelette) was the best omelette I have ever eaten. The biscuits and gravy were also very good. A little on the expensive side but I will definitely return.

Had breakfast here on a busy Sunday and we had to wait 45 minutes for a table. For the prices, I expected a stellar experience but it was just average. I love and appreciate that everything is homemade and from scratch and that is what drew us there in the first place. The yogurt and granola was good. I found... More

We tried this place for breakfast again on a friday morning. First of all...let me tell you breakfast for 2 adults and one child was $70. Yep. They originally charged me $114, which is still pending on my credit card, making me mad. We both had the biscuits and gravy, one order of fruit, some bacon, and a waffle for... More
