Lucky’s Deli — Restaurant in Melbourne

Worst experience ever in Frankston. Avoid.

Entered the shop because the Google reviews seem to be quite positive. I strolled through the shop but don’t have much to buy. Some product labels are in Italian so I used image translate to check the ingredients. And then a man came to me, claimed that I was checking the prices and told me to leave. I explained that I was using google translate and showed him the screen, and I was about to buy it. He just told me to leave immediately regardless of my explanation. I couldn’t see any sign of ‘no photos’ in the shop, but others are uploading photos too so I don’t understand why.

Not sure if it’s because the man (probably the shop owner) was rude, or just because I’m an Asian and can’t read Italian, but it was an absolutely disappointing experience. Imagine you just try to understand what you are holding before paying for it, and the next second you are expelled from the shop like a thief. What if you are allergic to certain ingredients? They don't care.

Fortunately it’s not the only shop that sells Italian groceries in this area. I went to Henry’s where the staff wouldn’t force me to buy products I don’t understand or ask...

Today was my 1st time at this European Deli in the heart of Frankston opposite the train station. From the outside it doesnt look much, but the minute you step inside the door, Voila!! The delicious smells of cured meats and sweet smell of cakes is Inviting. I took a good look around. You can sit in for caffe and Sweets, buy loads of European ingredients for that special recipe too. I ended up buying a fresh spinach quiche and a variety of cakes to take home. I ended up calling Luckys Deli to say how Delicious they all were. I highly recommend Luckys Deli. A...
