Chicken tenders and fries.
Douglas D.

Sunday evening by the lake in MJ. Stopped at a little spot right off the lake. Chips and salsa were very good. Salsa was fresh and chips were warm. If you like cilantro in your fresh salsa, you will enjoy this for sure! I had the classic burger and fries and my wife had chicken tenders and fries. Burger was cooked very good. Fries were also delicious. Seemed to be cooked in peanut oil. They were very good and we both enjoyed them with the Parmesan on the fires. Chicken tenders were good. Buffalo sauce was a bit hotter than normal but still good. They bring your beer out with a very chilled glass. I, myself; really like that. All in all a very good experience. Staff was friendly and attentive. Facility was clean. We were very impressed with this small but mighty place near the lake. Definitely visit The Lucky Rooster when visiting Mt. Juliet or Old Hickory Lake. You will not be disappointed. Very chill and quaint place by the lake.

Great lakeside stop with the nicer-dive feel. Not divey in it was super clean, but has that more approachable, non-fussy feel and set up. Food was great and had a real quality taste and not just bar food. I had planned on getting a burger and to skip the side but the fries here are SPECTACULAR and cannot be ignored! Service was spot on as well.

If you are looking for a place to eat outside with a decent view and good bar style food, this is the place for you. It's also pet friendly for the outside patio. Burger was cooked perfect and tasted good. The fries are a massive highlight, as they are delicious. It was busy and food took a minute but overall a good experience.

Blackened Cajun Chicken and side salad.

Chain restaurants aren't my thing. Local. Family owned. They know the people by name and how their families are doing. The Lucky Rooster fits that bill. But at the same time they are welcoming to first-timers. Got a welcome and a sincere smile from the ladies behind the bar. Really good recommendation on a new beer I had not heard of. Blackened chicken and a side salad. Great outdoor patio but I forgot a jacket. (Yes I'm a woos.)

Is this place still open? Do they still have trivia?

It was still open the last weekend in March. Awesome place!

We came here on a random Wednesday night and I left a big fan. We arrived and we seated…read moreimmediately, but I can easily see why you want to get a reservation. We just happened to arrive later in the evening on a weeknight with no wait. I ordered the pork mojo, but when it arrived it was the fried pork chop. I alerted the runner that I had ordered a different pork dish. She immediately went to the server who checked and had made a mistake and put in the wrong ordered. I said it was no big deal and that I would take the pork chop. A gentleman noticed the interaction and sprung into action. He let me keep the pork chop and brought out the mojo pork. I was later told he was the owner. When our check arrived later he comped both the pork chop and mojo. Excellent service will make me a repeat customer over and over again. Now to the pork mojo. It was delicious. The kind of dish that I will seek out in the future. The rice was fluffy and moist and the cilantro dressing was creamy and yummy. It was very well balanced and hit the spot. Excellent place in MJ!

Wings were very good, best ive had in Mount Juliet so far, burnt ends were good, we asked for no jalapeños but still got them anyways, had to pick them off since we arent fans of anything spicy. Ribs were tender and cobb salad was a great option minus the guacamole, its obvious its not made fresh and most likely from a jar i expected freshly made guacamole at a restaurant but still decent to eat. Drinks were really good! My boyfriend got the old fashioned and i had wine then a cocktail. Service was subpar, waitress didn't give refills on water and very passive instead of proactive. Will definitely come back to try it out again.

We frequented this place a lot prior to Covid. It's always been great...and still is!…read more My only complaint is that prior to Covid, they advertised a great deal...buy this reusable larger cup with the purchase of a bushwacker and you will get it refilled FOREVER with a shot for a certain price (it was $9, I believe). Anyhow, I've come in a few times lately. A lot of employees don't know about this. Tonight, our bartender did seem to remember the offer! Unfortunately, we were informed it stopped after Covid. The glasses we purchased are useless. We were poured a bushwacker in their normal cup and offered a topper for $2. No deal whatsoever. I feel if a customer comes in with the glass and asks for the deal they purchased, it should be honored. You advertised this special...honor it. Anyhow, this is a great place to enjoy a great meal and drinks on the lake. Lots of outdoor dining is available over the water. It's enjoyable to toss some bread to the fish or turtles swimming by. The bushwackers are, indeed, fabulous! The chicken tenders are super tender. Bar fills us with tons of regulars, so get there early to snag a spot at the small bar!

Great vibes, good eats and nice atmosphere…read more I went in for lunch with some colleagues recently. I ordered the chicken tenders with fries. The chicken batter was everything; super crispy and full of flavor. I will be back to try other dishes.

9/25/26 We had sweet potato fries which were delicious…read more Crispy with soft center. Spiced perfectly. Pizza rolls were hot, flaky crust with the right amount of mozzarella cheese and pepperoni in the center. The basil marinara sauce was good. The boneless breaded wings with bourbon bbq sauce was fresh and made in house and yummy. Sweet but not overpowered. Tender chicken. Ameretto sour was refreshing. Tap beer was chill at the right temp. Makayla was our server who was friendly, smiled and knowledgeable. She states she was new but was able to tell us her favorite menu items and recommend items. Clean hands, hair tied back with clean clothes. Team work apparent as 2 managers also brought our food out. We watched staff help with other tables without the not my job attitude. Clean restaurant. We let one manager, Ally know how impressed we were. In speaking with other customers who had also never been there, stated that the salmon tacos were delicious. The nachos with guac and queso and pico were delicious. They also were thrilled with flaky, pizza rolls. Another table enjoyed the fresh goat burger stating juicy, generous portions and flavourful. Casual dining with outside seating area as well. We will definitely be back. 10/10. Thank you so much for a wonderful lunch.

The food is really good and the vibe is great. I will admit that the service can be slow sometimes…read more All businesses are slow when they get crazy, overwhelmed and slammed with people. If you're not in a hurry and have realistic expectations about what any establishment can handle during peak hours, then you will surely enjoy your experience.

I saw there hasn't been a review here in a while and wanted to give it a try. My family and I…read morevisited CP between the lakes for the first time since we moved here and to be honest we didn't even know it was a restaurant until maybe a year ago because it really doesn't look like one at a quick glance driving by. We have little kids so we bring our own booster seats, I tend to request a booth if possible due to having the kids with us. I will say my only real negative here is the fact that the booth is super long (made for a party of 6 or more) and the booth seats are super far away from you. I had to hold the back of one of the booster seats so my youngest didn't send her face into the table since she could very easily tip herself forward with all the space. The hostess was very nice and we were sat immediately, our server met us at the table, and got our drinks almost immediately. We ordered appetizers and kid's food and the kid's food was probably out in less than 5 minutes it was ridiculously fast (in a good way) my kids absolutely loved the Mac & cheese one of my children quite literally inhaled their food. We quickly got our appetizers and I will say they were all good! We had fried mozzarella, fried pickles, and pretzels with cheese. My husband said the pickles were good but he doesn't need to get them again if we come back. I personally loved the pretzels and we liked the mozzarella they are massive but really good the cheese pull is 10/10 Now food my husband got the Smokehouse burger and he said originally it was 6/10 before our waitress brought him a sweet BBQ sauce to go with it and then he said it was an 8/10 personally I tried the BBQ sauce by itself and I was not a fan but thats personal preference. I got the chicken pot pie soup and a side salad which I give both a solid 8/10 - I did try the kid's Mac & cheese and can say it was probably some of the best I have had in a while definitely not a store bought type mac and cheese Now I did see a couple of reviews regarding the claw machine being an issue with their kids based on location but honestly, my kids didn't even notice it, it was all the way in the far corner of the restaurant. Our waitress was quick and attentive, and the location itself was fine other than the massive table size (I did request a booth thats on me) music selection was good. Otherwise, I think it's a definite win for us, especially with how close it is to us, and it's not all the way down in Providence. I will say we did sit close to the kitchen and I don't love that you can see almost everything going on in the kitchen at all times, if I wasn't wrapped in the kids it probably would have bothered me more but it was fine Overall location, food, and ambiance I would give a 7/10

So.... A lot to unpack with this meal. We had chips and queso and salsa. It was good. Salsa was…read morespicy, but not too much. Queso was watery but had a good flavor. I had chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy with green beans. Chicken fried chicken was juicy and cooked well. Not much gravy on it though. Mashed potatoes were good, but the bottom of the mashed potatoes had a huge black portion in it. Not sure if it was bad potato or just had stuck to a skillet or something like that. I did not finish my mashed potatoes. The green beans were different. Tasted like they had brown sugar in them? Not sure what that tangy/sweet flavor was; but was not very pleasing in green beans. I only had one bite of the beans and couldn't eat any more. The cornbread was sweet but very dry. Maybe serve the cornbread with a pat of butter for some moisture and added flavor? My fiancé had grilled chicken breast with a baked potato. She ate all of her potato and just some of her chicken. She said it was good but not great. She did try her cornbread. It was also very dry. We do enjoy coming to this place to eat. The bar area is nice and the beer selection is good as well. First time I had their chicken fried chicken. Probably won't order it again. My fiancé said it reminded her of High School cafeteria food tonight. I would have to agree with that analogy. Do however try their chili and if you like burgers, they have a good Mushroom and Swiss burger here! Not our best experience at Corner Pub, but it was still enjoyable for a late Friday night dinner.

The food is always great, the atmosphere is fun and laid-back, and the staff are incredibly friendly--always smiling and welcoming. They also have board games you can play, which adds such a fun touch, and we've even caught some live music that made the whole experience even better. One of our favorite parts is how family-friendly it is. Our daughter loves coming here because she has space to run around on a playground area and a whole big yard and just be a kid. While we relax and enjoy ourselves--which, honestly, is hard to find. This is one of the few places around that truly feels kid-friendly and enjoyable for adults. So if you're not into being around families, there are plenty of other spots. BUT for those of us who are, this place is a gem.

The menu focuses on " Elevated Bar Food" and scratch made sauces. They serve Apps, Sandwiches, Salads, Sides and a couple of weekend brunch items. They had a Breakfast Burrito today, but I think it's a rotating option. They also have 13 local and regional beers on tap and serve cocktails also. This is a local place to bring the family as they have covered outdoor tables with a huge fenced in backyard. The outdoor area is dog friendly and they have a playground and activities for the kids. They have Live Music, Rotating smoker specials, Trivia Night, Karaoke and a Writers night. I would recommend going to their website to find out when these activities occur and when and who is playing Live Music. The service was very good and the employees were friendly and helpful. You place your order at the Bar, they give you a number and bring your food to you. You sit wherever you want. It does get busy. There were several people there when we arrived ( shortly after opening ) and when we left it was already getting busy. To finish the review--- They have a kids menu and the burgers come with housecut Potato Chips. The burgers are served on a Sweet Potato Bun which I've not seen anywhere else. I really liked it. It added a touch of sweetness to the tasty Burgers. Go check 'em out !!
