Lucky's Steakhouse

Lucky’s Steakhouse is a modern take on the classic American steakhouse, blending timeless tradition with the relaxed elegance of its Montecito roots. Founded in 2000 by Gene Montesano, Jimmy Argyropoulos, and Herb Simon, the brand has expanded into Malibu, SoHo, and soon East Hampton. Known for prime USDA steaks, lobster, chops, and seafood, each location features rich wood accents, leather seating, jazz-inspired murals, and curated cocktails—capturing both upscale steakhouse heritage and coastal sophistication.

With a multi-location strategy that balances consistency with local character, Lucky’s has proven regional appeal and scalable potential. The brand thrives in high-foot-traffic, socially vibrant areas—from Montecito and Malibu to SoHo and East Hampton—driving strong dinner service, private events, and group bookings. With a focus on hospitality, intentional design, and flexible event programming, Lucky’s is well positioned for continued growth in likeminded, lifestyle-driven destinations.
