Lucky Boy restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I shot this just before lunch time. I should have gone in and tried it, but I had a plane to catch. Next time I’m in ABQ I will! Apparently it’s been there for 40 years, and the interior looks like they have never redecorated. The Yelp reviews for this place are a hoot. “The place really could use a thorough cleaning, but I so love it anyways.” “The kitchen, which is just behind the counter, visible in all its crusty grease glory, can turn people off big time. “ “Don’t let the look of the outside discourage you from trying this lovely hole in the wall! Burger was good. Chinese food is questionable.” “Okay, don’t judge a book by it’s cover because if you do you would run out the door because the seats are old, the tile floors needs a cleaning, and walls well it would need some renovating. That out of the way, their food is good!” “What would we do without Lucky Boy? The BEST Chinese food at around $3.00 a plate! The air conditioning lacks. The floors need a mop. The windows need a squeegee. The walls need paint. And the tables need replacing. But…”I just can’t quit you,” Lucky Boy! I just can’t!” “The problem with this place is that, as much as I love the burgers, every time I go there (not that often), there is no way I can escape the feeling that maybe I shouldn’t eat there because it just looks very unsanitary. It is run down, and I don’t think the owners have put a penny into any type of maintenance, much less renovations, ever. Not even a paint job in over 30 years (or at least it appears that way).” In other words, a classic dive! Lucky Boy restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I shot this just before lunch time.
