I been here twice and really enjoy the smaller size laid back atmosphere of this place! Each of the beer they suggested I enjoyed, the margarita special doesn’t taste like a ‘rail’ or low end cocktail which was surprising! Fried egg was GOOD, chicken is on point, and okra was how it should be. But the best thing about the food was the tots! They were a hard fry but not over cooked!! Thank you to the cooks for knowing how to cook good simple food!
4 stars for slow and unattentive wait staff.
This was a first time at Lucy's and we tried so much.
Diablo oysters, onion rings, fried deviled egg, bucket o chicken, chicken tenders, Mac n cheese.
Ordered 5 beers and club soda total was $120 💰
Would go back if I was in a fried chicken kind of moon.
You have to eat here! The food is delicious, well seasoned, and just perfect. I had a strawberry mojito (yum!) and a Front Porch Tea (pictured below), amazing! The Chicken Cove Club was so full-filling, I was only able to finish half. The fried deviled eggs are a must try! My bf had the oysters and he said they were pretty good; he also had the tenders. I tried some, delish!! Our waiter was attentive and recommended great dishes. The atmosphere was so cool because there is a free juke box playing some good ole’ country and oldies!
Casual, great feel-at-home vibe restaurant. Family love the crispy and juicy fried chicken. Sides are awesome too. Personal fave are the collard greens with its nice vinegary kick and the beans. Oh, and don't leave without trying out their pies!
TLDR: massive portions, great chicken
For the food I had the “Tender-Lovin’ Chicken Tenders and a side order of fries. They were pretty darn good. at first, I was a bit hesitant as it was looking to be pretty darn pricey, but my god the portion sizes are huge. I’m a big guy, and made two full meals out of my one purchase here, which made the cost go from “this is a bit pricey” to “pretty darn good deal”.
Service was good, I sat on the front patio, which was very pleasant. No massive complaints other than a lack of dipping sauces, which I think are a major key for good chicken, and the fact that you pretty much have to order a meal for two.
I love this place and make a point to come go it every time I visit Austin. I usually get a dozen oysters and some fried chicken. The oysters are huge and very tasty and the the chicken is spot on. It's a great place to bring the whole family and sit out side...it's quiet despite Brit pretty close to the road. The staff is helpful and very friendly and the whole experience is very genuine. Worth the trip.
This is how you do southern style fried chicken. Anywhere that has fried okra, I'm in.
Plus they have oysters on the half shell and other deliciousness in the menu. Definitely in my regular rotation.
Overall was really good. Great value for the portion size. The butter for the waffles was awesome, being given Smuckers flavored corn syrup was disappointing. The chicken was also over cooked, but was still great.
Lucys was AMAZING!!!!!!!!! It was our 1st time trying it today and we WILL DEFINITELY be coming back! The waitress was so kind!!
Lucy’s chicken is juicy and crispy the vibes are the essentials of Austin. The brisket burger with bacon jam is so good. Don’t forget your specials oysters straight from the Gulf. Indoor and outdoor seating makes for a perfect place to eat no matter what the weather
