A couple recently left a huge tip for a Chicago restaurant that is especially close to their hearts. 

Club Lucky received the $2,000 tip on Friday and posted about it on Facebook Sunday. 

According to the post, the couple that left the generous tip had their first date at Club Lucky more than 20 years ago. They have since returned every year at the same time and always sit at the same booth.
