    Really good food, especially the appetizers. Nice range of flavors. A little loud for conversation but lively and fun.

    Billy’s is always consistent in quality. Our waiter was great but the wrong appetizers were brought to our table and that server just looked confused and almost knocked over my wine glass. We never received our bread service during the meal, which is usually included. It was Christmas Eve so they were busy and seemed to be handling things well.

    Overall Lucky is a GEM! We visited on the Monday before Christmas. While many restaurants were closed - because it was Monday, leadership at Lucky made the wise decision to be open. It was a busy night in downtown Roanoke and the restaurant was pretty full as a result. To my thinking it also gave the employees a chance to make some good Christmas tips. I suspect that the restaurants that were closed will be also be closed Tuesday and Wednesday as well because of Christmas Eve and Christmas Day respectively. That leaves the employees with 3 days with no pay or tips. Good job Lucky! With respect to food and service: The food and drink menus are inventive and inspiring. I was impressed by the quality, taste and presentation of the food. I think the prices are a smidge high but the quality, SERVICE, and ambiance certainly make up for it. Based on our one visit, I will say that Lucky seems to be a GEM in the Roanoke restaurant scene.

    Beautifully decorated inside, staff was extremely pleasant. My overall frustration was not knowing that when we booked reservations for six people in the lounge that we would not be giving an actual table to seat at to eat. Instead of couch and a couple chairs around a low coffee table. We enjoyed appetizers and cocktails, but unfortunately had to go across the street to another restaurant for a sitdown dinner. Will go back but with a new understanding.
