Well, my trip today to Lucky Street turned into quite an adventure. Not because of anything they did wrong, but because of my own incompetence. I arrived at the restaurant shortly after noon. It was quiet other than some modern music quietly playing in the background and the normal noise of a busy kitchen faintly across the room. The restaurant was clean with lovely decore. I sat by the window and my server, Jimmy, provided some of his favorites as some great options. He also reviewed the upcoming menu changes and how they are lowering prices while their competitors are raising them. The new menu should be available about a week or so from today's post on 10/4/25. As soon as I saw Pho on the menu, I knew I had to try it. I was quickly served an ice cold soft drink while my feast was prepared. Jimmy brought me out fresh lentils and the usual garnishment. The plate was heaping and all of the vegetables were very fresh. Next, Jimmy tip-toed across the room with a bowl so full, one person couldn't possibly eat it all. My first bite was like a little slice of heaven. The noodles were perfect and the the beef tender and flavorful. The broth was salty and the perfect amount of Sriracha and extras makes all the difference. Half-way through my meal I was already stuffed. As is custom, I left a healthy portion for the chef. Then I got to the counter to pay my tab and realized I forgot to ask if they took Google pay. They don't have that service yet, so I had an interesting time paying for my meal, but we got it settled. I appreciated their understanding and willingness to cooperate while I fixed my blunder. Check them out on DoorDash if you don't mind paying a little extra, or order in person, like I did. This cute little shop under new ownership is a great spot for an intimate date night or even just a quiet meal alone.

I've been coming here for years, and when it comes down to Thai food in the area, it is hard to beat! You have to try their Thai fried rice with the Chinese sausages. Definitely one of my go-tos! The portions are very generous, the staff is very accommodating, and overall, this is a great experience if you're looking to have a nice lunch or quick grab atmosphere. And it's located in a relatively quiet strip so if you want some peace while you're dining, this is a great stop. I also like their crying tiger beef. I don't know if this is still in the menu, but if it is, still recommend it!

The food was delicious! I couldn't make up my mind, so the server recommended the chef's special, which was absolutely delicious! Also they have the best version of the crunchy roll I've ever had. I will definitely be coming back!
