Congratulations to owners Tony and Jeremy, GM Sean, Manager Rajan, Chef Maria, and the entire team for the warm hospitality and excellent dining experience. The Buffalo Wings were outstanding, the Fish & Chips were perfectly prepared, and their selection of IPAs was absolutely delicious. From one Chef/Owner to another, I wish you continued success as you grow. Thank you for a wonderful evening, and I look forward to visiting again soon. -- Chef Sunny Le P'tit European-American Gastronomy

I love Lucky Monk. My friend and I have come here a few times for Happy Hour because they have…read moregreat Happy Hour food deals, which I appreciate a lot as someone who doesn't drink much. The deal is half off apps, but if you enjoy an adult beverage, the house-brewed drafts are also half off. M-Th 3-6pm, dine-in only. At least that's what it is right now. I feel like it changes, so maybe call beforehand to confirm. I only got pics of the nachos this time, which really doesn't do it full justice because they're bigger than they look in the photo. Food is always good and consistent, there's nothing really to complain about regarding service or prices, and parking has always been really easy, though that could be because we typically go on Tuesdays. I imagine weekends could be a little bit busier, but the place is pretty big, so even if you have to wait, I don't think that you'd be waiting that long. The vibe is also casual and low-key.

They have quite a selection, but are limited when it comes to having very spicy wings. We ordered the Cajun fries which were also delicious, I would say if you use fries to calm your tastebuds after eating wings, you probably would be better off with regular fries because the Cajun has some spice. We ate out on the patio, which is nice. They had the sound to the basketball game playing, but you can't see the game - so music would've been better.

The lady I spoke with on the phone was super sweet, friendly, and patient since it was my first time ordering. I really appreciated how helpful she was! I can't say much about the ambiance since we only did pickup, but the food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were generous. The prices were also very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and I'll definitely be coming back to try more! Definitely recommend this spot if you're craving Korean fried chicken! Everything was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor! The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the sauce was absolutely delicious. The tteokbokki was also amazing--spicy, flavorful, and the rice cakes had the perfect chewy texture. The fries were crispy and seasoned really well too.

We do two half chickens and its perfect for the 4 of us. Service is fast and there's a little button you can press to call the wait staff. Beer is served into a nice cold frosted glass, they have beer and soju. Chicken is brought out hot and steamy but also very crisp if its not saucy. Gloves are available if you don't feel like getting your hands messy. A bit pricey but quality is good. Ambiance is very casual. Order at the table, pay at the counter afterwards.
