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.

  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!

  We've eaten here twice on our visit this year. Both times our service and food were nothing less than EXCELLENT! You really should try this restaurant. Both times we went... read more with another couple and everything about our visits was superb. In particular the Caprese salad, pasta dishes, seafood combo, lamb chops and ribeye were prepared as we requested. Their rolls are a big added plus. As is their flan. Service was cordial and attentive. We can't say enough about the kitchen and staff here without sounding redundant. These folks have set a really high standard.

  While staying in the El Pescadero area, we had friends take us to Lucky 23 out to eat. It was outstanding. The owner and chef even invited my husband into... read more the kitchen....which was IMMACULATE....to show him around! We were so impressed that we returned a 2nd time for Taco Night!!

My husband is still raving about it. The house flan desert was the best we have had this trip. The ambiance is delightful and the service was warm and friendly. Thank you J.J.

  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!
