Lucy’s Kitchen

This last visit wasn’t great at all. The iced tea is watered down and not sweet at all. My fried fish was mushy and no where near flaky as it should be. My wife chef salad was just ordinary and they forgot the egg. My sons burger was the best thing of the night. Even the cheesecake wasn’t good, no flavor! Start using some spices and flavoring up the food. I know you want to stay cheap but still need good food. Won’t be back for awhile, if ever.

Great little place in Elgin! It’s definitely a nice change :) they have southern food, Mexican, burgers and salads. All for good prices. Nothing over $ 10! Not to crowded either. Come check it out!

Ok. new little place has hit the ground running. Been open for about 3 weeks, and always have cars out front. And hey… when the local Law eats there, it should be good. Now with the wide range on the menu, there is a lot to choose from. Including Mexican food. AND with Ramos (one of our personal favorites) across the street, gloves off. SO. this review is for the Mexican category. Yes its small, about 8 tables. Good and busy today. The wait for the food was a bit, but worth the wait. Started with our usual, Chips, salsa and Queso… Salsa was super good, spicy, and very fresh. Wife had the beef enchiladas, double rice. Both of us were surprised on the flavor of the beef. Some of the best we have had (we have had a lot, this is joint #49). Thick tortillas, rice was really good as well, moist, and packed with flavor. Mine was a combo. One beef Enchilada, 1 Crunch Taco, beans and rice. Beans were GOOD. Cant remember the last time I was served white cheese on my crunchy taco. Trust me I didn’t have a problem cleaning my plate. We saw a good about of food come out, and it all looked great, burgers were huge, nachos looked awesome. AND they have PIE… But sadly no chocolate today, which gives us the chance to visit again. Try the American side of the menu this time. Better then Ramos… wont say. flavors are different, so I know have 2 place to go. yea me… best part…$ 17 Bucks AFTER tip… Stop by and check em out…
