Lucky Chucky's Beach Bar and Grill - Restaurant in Oconomowoc - 37238 Valley Rd, USA

Stopped in on Sunday evening to watch the NFC Championship game. To start, our server/bartender was incredible. Attentive, but not overbearing and efficient. They were truly what made the visit amazing. Let’s talk food. I failed to take a photo of the soup before I started eating (it smelled so good), but you could SMELL the deliciousness of the Chicken Tortilla Soup. Not only that, but this Crispy Cauliflower is perfection - great heat that isn’t overwhelming. We sat at the bar extension so we could watch the game - full bar, a few families enjoying a meal - and the noise level was balanced. Overall great ambiance.

I highly recommend it with a perfect rating of 10/10. The food was fantastic, fresh, and hot, adding to the great atmosphere and entertainment. I used to work here ten years ago, and it was such a pleasant blast from the past! Kudos to Shane and Tony for the remarkable upgrade. I'd also like to give a shout out to our waiter, who memorized eight dishes without writing anything down. It was impressive! We’ll be back soon. 😎

Spent a good portion of a lovely sunny day here, grazing on most of the available appetizers and a couple of desserts. They were all very good indeed. Particularly enjoyed the mushrooms and the brussel sprouts, but all good. Enjoyed our key lime pie too! Cocktails were delicious. Great seating with a wonderful view of silver lake outside. Looked like a lot to do inside too, but the weather was too good to be in there! Staff was very accommodating and friendly, a credit to the bar. Plenty of parking. Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

So yeah... We were in town for a college graduation and were wanting a place to get together with some friends for dinner. We knew it was going to be a busy Friday night and were prepared for a wait. Little did we know... My wife and I arrived at 615 and asked for a table for four. We were told it would be about a half hour and we were cool with that. Sure enough, a half hour went by and we were seated. Seeing how busy it was, we were going over the menu and did notice how long it had been until we looked at the table next to us - they had barely received their apps. I looked at the time and 15 minutes had already passed without us even being acknowledged. A server asked if anyone had been by yet and assured us someone would be with us shortly. A young lady took our drink order and said she would be back with them. 15 minutes (!) later, we were on the verge of walking out, as we had still not received anything. However, she arrived with our waters and various beverages at the last possible moment. We were stuck now. She asked about apps, and my wife and I got the crabby fries. She did not ask about entrées, which I found odd, but hey... The appetizer arrived about 15 minutes later and was tasty, but a bit disappointing in size. She then took our orders - my wife got some tacos and I got the Shrimp and Crab BLT. Both of our entrées were delicious, but you could tell they were under a heat lamp for some time. It took almost a half hour for our entrées to come out and in that time, we saw a six-top get seated next to us and receive their entire order - drinks and all! Once we received our food, I asked to speak with a manager. I explained the situation and the timeline. She told me that it was a busy Friday and the kitchen was backed up and our server was also taking care of the outside patio. In the end, she took care of our drinks for the lack of service. If in the area again, we would not come back on a weekend. Their service seems to be lacking when it is busy. During the week would be a better bet. The food was good though! I rather enjoyed the BLT and my wife told me her tacos were delicious.

From the food to the service to the atmosphere, Lucky Chucky’s left everything to be desired. The place was just empty, nothing was on the tables (like salt/pepper/ketchup) and there were very few people there, and us being there felt like a bother. This was possibly because of them not having a lot of employees working…there were signs all over the doors and counters stating they were understaffed and our server told us as well. I just ended up feeling bad. The food was extremely bland. The fries were great, the tacos had some potential, and the grilled chicken sandwich was just a plain, unseasoned chicken breast with the weirdest aftertaste of burger. I had heard good things about Lucky Chucky’s, so maybe this was a one off experience, but I was unfortunately disappointed.

We have this place another shot and really enjoyed it! The nachos were delicious and loaded with toppings. We weren’t able to finish them. The fish fry was very good and we would come back for it. The drinks were pretty good! My strawberry mojito (don’t judge me…I just golfed in 90 degree weather and didn’t want a margarita) was very refreshing. Staff was attentive and kept our drinks filled. It’s fun to be out on the patio. The place was very busy with nice weather and weekend vibes. The indoor stage is a great setup for shows. It can be tough to get seated when the weather is nice. It can be a little frustrating because they don’t seat to space but rather to kitchen capacity I think. You can wait for awhile for a table even though there are plenty of open tables.

We asked friends if there was a restaurant on Silver Lake with a view of the lake. They said Lucky Chucky's and agreed to meet us there on 8/27/23 around 1:20pm. When we arrived the "hostess" said we could eat outside without any shade with the bees or eat inside. WOW!! I saw a table with a view of the lake and asked for it. The hostess said that server was too busy and told us the tables we could pick from (no lake view). REALLY?? Not wanting the customer to have a great view because of their "rules"??? The menu had pizza but I was told I couldn't order that!??! We were told there was no ice for our drinks. She never refilled my soda. Fries were good. Chicken tenders were fair. We live in Racine and traveled quite a distance to try this place. Why would we go back?? Wish the manager was more involved and wanting their paying guests to have a great experience. Can not recommend. Sorry

Visited with our family who are locals. It was a great little place that was huge in customer service. Overall, the food was great. They were out of curds so we ordered boom boom shrimp which was spot on! I ordered chicken strips/tenders, which were very thin slices off a breast & that were overcooked (dry). Due to my personal medical requirements, I wasn't able to eat them. The fries are unusual & and oh, so very good!
