Had a great experience at La Lucha. There was a bit of a mix up at the beginning but they were able to get things fixed quickly and with minimal issues. The tacos and chicken were amazing. I definitely recommend trying them both. I highly recommend trying La Lucha if you haven’t before. You will love the ambience and service from the staff. Sarai and Team are amazing staff members and a good asset to the La Lucha staff that made our experience great.

Went to La Lucha tonight and honestly had a really good experience overall. The smoked jalapeño wood roasted oysters were incredible and probably one of my favorite appetizers we ordered. The burger was solid, fries were great, and the fried chicken, while a little under-seasoned for my taste, was still super crunchy and juicy. The absolute star of the meal though was the redfish on the half shell. Our waiter recommended it and I’m glad we listened because it ended up being the best dish by far. The salsa verde with the fish was such a good combination and balanced everything perfectly. Went to La Lucha tonight and honestly had a really good experience overall.

The salsa verde with the fish was such a good combination and balanced everything perfectly. Only small complaint was that the timing of the food was a little all over the place. The burger came out first and the fries showed up pretty late after, but it honestly didn’t take away too much from the experience. Atmosphere was great, service was friendly, and overall it’s definitely a spot I’d come back to and recommend to others.

the chicken is sooo good here!! my friend is so picky and he actually finally ate here! definitely get the chicken, the biscuits are so so good and don’t skip on trying the jam!!! the burger was decent, fries were good, oysters were delicious and fresh!! the shrimp was good, the collard greens were good as well. service was a little slow outside, can’t speak much for the inside seating. sat at the bar after for another drink and they were so sweet. i wanted a matchbook and they ran out of them here, the bartender offered to grab me one from star rover next door! so sweet!! will definitely be back

The food was fresh and delicious. Hands down the best fried chicken we've had in town so far. The brisket burger was cooked to perfection. The greens had a slight spice to them that made them taste even better. The biscuits with the fresh strawberry jam were a great touch as well. We will be back for sure.

I love a place that is good and you can get a reservation with no hassle. Per usual I like to order a little bit of everything bc why not? This place is known to have the best fried chicken in Houston. It was really good I do have to say! The biscuits and jam were unbelievable ! Brussel sprouts very much on point great tasting ! The charbroiled oysters were absolutely on point we ordered a second round. We also ordered deviled eggs which were topped with a fried shrimp very tasty! friend chicken and the red fish dish were out main courses both were delish! We had a good time , the restaurant is also appealing nice and dim. Good vibes good setting , great staff!
