Lucky's Drive-In Tacoma — Restaurant in Washington

I HAD NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE. But for some reason, though I have driven past the place for a couple years, this one day I just happened to decide to try a burger and then BAM, it was their anniversary! And they were offering an amazing special.

I eat out a lot, so I wasn't sure what I was gonna get, thinking just another burger. Boy was I wrong. I am a Baby Boomer, so I always compare things to the good ole days when the Hambugers were large and the fries were exceptional. This was Lucky's!

Funny thing is that just four days pryer, I had went to another restaurant for their "Gourmet Burgers" and steak fries. I'm not going to mention the name cause it's not cool to say Red Robbin, when I'm comparing another place to them. The other place 😆 calls their Burgers Gourmet, NO, honestly you HAVE to try Lucky's!!! Seriously, I looked at my hamburger and it was the biggest Double Bacon Cheeseburger I have seen in years. And it tasted as incredible as it looked.

But to top that off, the FRIES.... the fries were spectacular! Really, you may come back just for the fries! But highly doubtful after you have their Burgers and shakes, which btw was like our old fashion shakes.

The only thing I am unhappy about is that I came online to get their hours cause I was going to come get another meal, but they were already closed. 😆 So, I decided to write about my experience.

Lucky's will definitely become a mainstay for me. And to top it off, the prices are extremely reasonable! Remember, I had just went to that other nameless place only days before and it was not, inexpensive. I just looked at my online bank statement, and I paid $26.12 with tip, and I only had a Hambuger, Fries, and a WATER! And the service was slow. After remembering what I actually paid, I will NEVER go back, and spend more money for an inferior meal.

Thanks Lucky's, I can't wait to come back for...

Lived in Pierce County my whole life, and I've driven by this place a million times. But today I finally decided to go there. First let me tell you about the amazing Grandma's lavender lemonade. Absolutely delicious and they state that their grandmother makes the lavender oil herself it's all natural. It is the absolute best lemonade I may have ever had. Next I'll tell you about they're amazing french fries. Now me and my two sons are french fry lovers and we've had them from everywhere and I've got to say this is in my top five of all time french fries. And they have all housemaid dipping sauces no store-bought anything. And I couldn't tell you which one was best if I tried I had all of them lined up in a row and I would dip one and then dip the next and then dip the next, they are absolutely delicious. Now I'll tell you about the burger that I had, I had their Chipotle Burger. It was a very tasty very juicy well crafted Burger all the way around. At this point I highly recommend this restaurant for their great food, and also their pretty cool bus that they have on the property that you can dine in. It's done pretty well on the inside. The overall experience was classic Americana Diner....

But well worth the FOOD! I'm from the Maryland. So I've had burgers up and down the east coast, we've been stationed in GA, TX and now WA. When I say these are THE best burgers and fries. It's like when you imagine a perfect classic burger, this is it. But I'm gonna tell you what I get. I get a kid's cheeseburger with grilled onions and a large fry.

Its a full size burger, yall! Sometimes the other options have too much stuff and its piled too high. My order is the PERFECT classic cheeseburger.

But ya know what the BEST part of it all is? BATTERED FRIES! growing up these were concession stand fries at rec league baseball games. So its nostalgic and delicious. If we dont eat in the car or on the bus, we take our food home and you know how YOU KNOW its good? Its got that grease marks on the brown bag lol now THAT is take out food. This isnt even satire or sarcasm, like legit this is what foodies know.

I havent had luckys in like 2 months and just started craving it so i came on here to review it lol like i want anyone new to this area to see this and its worth the drive (if your on...
