Great spot with easy parking. Best tasting food compared to the Lucille's in Cerritos, Torrance or long beach town center.

My daughter and grandkids celebrated our annual Christmas Eve dinner at Lucille’s this year. My grandson was craving bbq. The biscuits were warm and delicious then our great waiter Landry brought our food of gumbo, BBQ pick 2 with sides and BBQ chicken salad. Everything was great and we enjoyed our time together.

Visitimg Dad in SoCal and he was craving bbq. The Chicken fried chicken, lunch portion was perfect. Potatoes good, veges good as well. However, all needed additional salt. Interestingly, only pepper is on the tables, no salt. Sister did not like her Cole slaw. Said it tasted like store bought slaw. Dad loved the baby back ribs and french fries. The biscuits were great. As you can see from the pictures, their plate presentations are lacking. However, I would eat at this chain again when visiting California.

Thank you Jesse for being a great server/waiter for our toddler's birthday celebration. The food was delicious! Non alcoholic drinks were always filled. Update 4/6/24: First time ordering online and let me tell you. 100% satisfied. Order was accurate, food was hot. Order online one day that you feel like just staying in home on a Friday night/weekend. 3 three meats combos are a great value.

Lucille’s Smokehouse has become my new favorite spot! Every time I come to LA, I make sure to stop by. The BBQ is amazing, full of flavor, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Can't wait for my next visit!
