Lucky's boasts its wings, so the variety of sauces is quite extensive. In total, Lucky's offers 35 different sauce options that can be put over wings or chicken tenders.
Of course there are mild, medium and hot, but the restaurant also has sauces such as sweet and sour, lemon pepper, teriyaki and Jamaican jerk.
Lucky's also has many different options when it comes to wings. Patrons can order as few as 10 wings ($5.99) or as many as 100 wings ($49.99).
As for the boneless chicken tenders, the range is four tenders ($5.99) up to 24 ($25.99).
Lauren decided to get the chicken tenders and ordered them tossed in medium sauce.
The waitress told her she could get a combo, which includes fries (regular, Cajun or Old Bay) and a drink for only $1 more.
Lauren was tempted by the Cajun fries, since she likes them with a little kick.
The serving was huge and came with four gigantic chicken tenders and an abundance of fries. The chicken was tender, crisp and tasted fresh.
Unlike some chicken fingers that have more crisp than meat, these were full, thick and juicy strips of chicken. The sauce was not too spicy and almost a little sweet.
Lauren said she could have even gone for the hot. She also got some ranch to dip her tenders and fries in.
Sally decided to go for one of Lucky's sandwiches. She got a barbecue sandwich ($4.99) and a side of coleslaw ($.99).
