Lucky Rooster is becoming a fast, new favorite for many Islanders. The restaurant offers fresh, local food and their menu changes periodically because it is based on what is local and available. The chef cooks some pretty mean comfort food dishes like shrimp and grits, fried chicken, and a delicious Lucky Burger. He also has menu items for the more adventurous eater like Octopus a La Plancha and Foie Gras Terrine. The cocktails are to die for and you must try the Juliet + Romeo…delicious!!
