    Dinner time
    Bill B.

    I am a fan of this place for several reasons. First off a FREE DRINK the whole month of your birthday! Any drink, soda to beer to a mixed drink. Second, BREAKFAST! It is really good here! I have tried a few things. One of my favorites is the eggs Benedict, they have a few kinds for different tastes. If you can, try and make reservations online, they get busy on the weekends. Third, service. Always pleasant, always friendly. Food comes out pretty quickly also, usually any time of the day. I can go on and on about this place, clean, roomy, comfortable atmosphere, they don't rush you out the door, friendly patrons at the bar. I have never had a bad experience here. You need to try this place and you will not be disappointed.

    Lucky's in The Czech Village here in Cedar Rapids, IA is a good choice for food when you are in the mood to build your own meal!! I had a burger that I got to pick all my toppings to make a unique and delicious perfect burger! Plus coleslaw. They always have a friendly staff and the ambience is welcoming and comfortable. I love the beautiful tables made from slabs of tree trunks. All in all, I recommend this place for a relaxing time with great food.

    I had the Chicken Kiev with the best Hollandaise sauce that I've had in years!!! Yum, bring a friend because it is so filling I couldn't finish it. The best rye toast I've ever had too! You won't be sorry that you went here. Friendly server and attentive. I highly recommend Luck's on 16th!!

    Delayed for our flight, so we had time to catch breakfast and after searching Yelp for a place with mimosas-we stumbled upon Luckys. Soooo happy we did. My husband had the mimosa flight-it was HUGE!! I had a normal mimosa and the ratio was PERFECT! Just a splash of OJ. And now to the food, delicious! Service was spot on, I wish I could remember our servers name, but it was a long morning. She had long black/brown hair Then we had extra time and walked around the area. Great spot for kids too!

    The food is phenomenal! The service is amazing! The feel of this place is just amazing. If the server recommends something, try it!! Drinks are really good too!

    Egg and mashers (fried mashed potatoes) with bacon and pancakes.

    Decided to try Lucky's today. I'm a pretty picky eater and nearly all the lunch menu had onions or olives so i went with that which can't fail; all day breakfast. I got a 1 egg meal with fried mashed potatoes that are similar to tater tots but a more creamy texture. The staff wasn't the most attentive but I blame my timing as I seemed to be in the lull so they were busy with dinner prep and always came when called. They were very nice. Love the decor but it's rather dark within. One wall is covered with this old relic they call "records" which apparently are the grandparents of the CD and used to hold music. The other wall had canvas photos of their food which I find novel. And I'm happy to see every thing from floor to table to bathroom was very clean All in all I see why Lucky's on 16th is a local favorite.

    Perfect bloody on a Sunday!!

    Our waitress Heather was phenomenal!!! Even made sure that if someone had a birthday in July, that they were getting their "birthday drink" for free right off the bat. Had about a 20 minute wait on a Sunday morning and it was well worth it. As you can see from the pictures, the bloody Mary's were fantastic and the food was amazing. Reason again, four stars as opposed to five, was that the biscuits & gravy needed a little bit more "something". A little more sausage, salt or whatever but it was still really good, but the hashbrowns were freaking to die for!!!! GO FOR THE CHEESE SAUCE!!!! !!!!!!!!! my parents, both from the Des Moines area, we're totally impressed with the entire atmosphere. From the ambience, to the friendly and attentive staff, and the food, everything was AWESOME!! Maybe just need to see how they can lighten the pancakes up a little bit because they were a little tough but other than that, phenomenal!!!!

    Mostly a bar, but very family friendly with lots of kids running around. It is in the Czech portion…read moreof town and has a few Czech specialties, but is mostly pub grub. It was loud when I was there, but not unpleasant; it just required we talk louder than we usually do. I had the cabbage rolls dinner and really liked them. The filling was "meatier" than is typical, making it more solid (less flaky?) than I prefer, but it was really tasty. The sauce was sweeter than we make at home, but good. We think it may be the same as the pizza sauce, but we are not sure. Cabbage rolls came with dumplings in gravy and a cold applesauce with cinnamon, so we didn't feel the need to order desert. The applesauce served the role of the desert sweetness, and overall there was a ton of food with each order. We also had the cheesy cauliflower appetizer, which was very good, and one of our party had a calzone, which he liked. All in all, we'd happily return if we are in Cedar Rapids again.

Instead of eggs over medium I got a f k at portion of scrambled that looked like they were poured out of a carton. The potatoes were so salty I could hardly eat them. the rest was a mixture of tiny minced ham onions sausage that had no chance of being meat of any kind, and was also way over salted. If MOTEL 6 on 33rd had breakfast in the morning it might be like this.

I chose the catfish po' boy with jalapeño corn. The corn was amazing, but the sandwich itself was just okay. My lady ordered the Nashville Chix with coleslaw. The chicken had the perfect blend of spicy and delicious. The coleslaw was really good, though I'm not a coleslaw fan, so take that for what it's worth. The atmosphere includes lots of TVs playing sports, a large bar, and at least two pool tables. There's also a big outdoor seating area with cornhole. It felt a touch run down when we visited, but we arrived just after winter, so it's probably very nice the rest of the year. The staff was attentive and friendly. It's also conveniently located near hotels, shops, and plenty of other things to do. I would definitely return to Scores.
