  We had been recommended to try Lucky 23 when we arrived on our first day on the Baja. We were tired and hungry, the special was Sea Bass with Passion... read more fruit, one of the best meals we have had, Passion fruit margaritas just complimented the dish!

Please do not drive by! Stop and check it out, you will not be sorry. We will be back in the fall, see you then!!!

  Phenomenal food. One of the finest fish dishes I have ever had. My wife had ribs which were great. The complimentary desert was delicious. Service was outstanding.

  We enjoyed an amazing dinner at Lucky 23 with some of the freshest Italian food ever. The basil and tomatoes must have been picked that day, making a wonderful starter... read more of the Caprese Salad presented in a beautiful tower that is easily shared. Our pasta main courses were "to die for. I'm a tortellini fiend and the texture was just right, slightly crisp, on my sample of beet, spinache, and shrimp tortellini's with riccota cheese. We topped it off with a roasted coconut ice cream with carmelized papapya skins that was magnificent. Service was incredible, attentive but not intrustive, and very friendly with visits from both the chef and owner. Very comfortable atmosphere, outdoors and quiet with open views of the sky at sunset, and absolutely no bugs. I would strongly ask about the specials, including their special basil, strawberry margerita.

Don't be fooled by the shamrock out front. This is a cutting edge Italian restaurant, not an Irish pub in the least. But do ask the owner to explain the name Lucky 23. It's a great story.

  José and his team at Lucky 23 made our dining experience super pleasant and comfortable. We are in uncertain times with CoVid-19 but these guys are taking all the precautions... read more and preparing super quality food in the midst of it all. CoVid has taken it's toll on a lot of business's in Mexico and US alike but Lucky 23 hasn't skipped a beat and are keeping their heads held high. They are super nice, speak good English and Spanish, very clean restaurant/bathroom/kitchen, and their food was AWESOME! The menu is a mix of local flavor and other styles and options like Italian(great shrimp fettuccini), BBQ, Stone Pizza Oven, and more. José and his team really made us feel at home and were super nice. They have excellent fish tacos, guacamole, etc but other options if you're looking for a break from the local cuisines or have picky kids to feed:) Their manners and service were top notch and they were excited to chat if you wanted but don't stand over you and bothering you:)
Don't let CoVid bum you out. Mexico and the Baja area are taking more precautions then I'm seeing in the states right now so get out, travel to Baja, and eat at Lucky 23 Restaurant!

  Nice little gem in Pescadero. Great salad, ravioli, and pork ribs with a pineapple and tamarind sauce. Appropriate serving sizes and very attentive and well spoken staff. We will likely... read more come here weekly next time we are down

Sangria and margaritas also very good. Excellent service as well. We only wish we weren't leaving tomorrow, if we had eaten here early in the week, likely wouldn't have gone anywhere else. Prices very reasonable-- dinner for 7 with drinks and tip, less than $200 total.

  I had Spaghetti with shrimp and homemade sauce that was amazing.
My family had some delicious fish flavored with fine herbs and fresh salad.
We wanted to try all the... read more dishes that passed next to us but sadly we were full.
Everything tasted perfect, JJ the owner mentioned that all their ingredients are organic from his family farm, that for sureee made everything much better.
Also we had Maracuya margaritas and you don’t have an idea of how delicious they were.
YOU MUST GO THERE!
Ask JJ for the favourite house drink, that guy knows what’s good!
