This is hands-down one of the best Southern barbecue places I’ve ever been to, an easy 5 stars! The brisket was absolutely incredible, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The biscuit that comes with the food was just as amazing, soft, buttery, and the perfect complement to the meal. Honestly, everything on the menu is exceptionally good (and I can say that confidently because we tried almost everything!). If you’re a fan of true Southern BBQ, this spot is a must.

This place is legit! We had a few hours to kill in Costa Mesa and we stopped here on the way. The inside is charming and the staff is great. They showed us inside their smoker. It’s a must see

First time at Lucille’s. New favorite place, we had a fantastic lunch. Got the two meat, two sides plate with Baby Back Ribs and Pork Belly Burnt Ends with Coleslaw and Potato Salad. My luncheon partner had Brisket and Pulled Pork with BB Beans and Mac and Cheese. Everything was super yummy, particularly the melt-in-your-mouth burnt ends, seriously they are phenomenal. Service, menu and vibe are all on point. Fun place with awesome food. Recommended!

I’ve been to their LA/Culver City locations several times. This was my first time visiting their Lake Forest location. I brought my family for a b-day celebration. Everything about our experience was fantastic… quality of food, ambiance, and the fabulous and very friendly Hannah who served us. We had a great time and will definitely go back!

I’ve been going to Lucille’s for years and have always enjoyed their food. I was pretty unimpressed with my recent meal there. The BBQ chicken was dried out and over cooked. The ribs looked good but were ok at best. The Tri-tip was cold and a little dry. I did enjoy the mashed potatoes, fries, and Mac & Cheese, but you really go there for the meat. Overall, the worst meal I’ve had at Lucille’s in the many years I’ve eaten at several locations. Hopefully this was just a one off incident and will still go back in the future.

Service is great, very nice people, they let you dine and are not over your head like some places.
Food is just okay, although I have to say we only had pulled pork and some apetizers, and now I think I should have ordered ribs, since that seems to be the best dish. Prices are on par compared to what you get, and it is a nice and quiet place.

Walking into this restaurant feels like stepping into a different era, a truly magical journey back in time. With over a century of history, the décor is both classic and authentic, creating a warm and nostalgic ambiance that simply envelops you. From the moment we walked in, I felt like we were in an old-world gem where every corner tells a story.
The food was nothing short of exceptional. The menu offered a wide array of choices, each dish more tempting than the last. I was genuinely blown away by the quality and attention to detail in each bite. Everything we tried was perfectly prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented. As a delightful touch, they served us homemade biscuits with special butter as a starter, which was both a treat and a welcoming gesture.
What truly set this restaurant apart, though, was the incredible service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our experience was unforgettable. Noticing my son’s interest in the beef ribs, they surprised us by bringing out an extra serving for him, entirely on the house! This level of attentiveness and care is rare to find.
From the charming ambiance to the exquisite food and unmatched hospitality, I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. It’s a place where you feel cherished as a guest and leave with a heart full of warmth and a desire to return soon. This restaurant has won a special place in our hearts, and we’ll be sharing this unforgettable experience with everyone we know!

I never leave reviews, however after several bad experiences I feel compelled to review. The employees were nice but the food was horrible. Both racks of ribs were old dried out and should have never been served. Same with the macaroni n cheese, the noodles were so overcooked that it was mush, could have eaten thru a straw. The bbq beans were watered down soupy mess. Cornbread was stale and hard as a brick. Nothing was fresh. I suspect everything was from the day(or days) before. I called and spoke to MOD, who said that he would submit a report to corporate. What will that do? Change needs to start in the kitchen not in the office. We’ve been long time customers back when they served fresh food, now it’s over cooked leftovers. COMPLETE GARBAGE. I hope my review is taken seriously because this is not a one off, it has happened several times before.

During my recent lunch visit to Lucille’s Barbecue, I was thoroughly impressed by the delicious food. The service was exceptional, with a welcoming atmosphere that enhanced the experience. Our waiter, Nick, was particularly attentive and pleasant. I also appreciated the thoughtful touch of receiving a hot towel at the end of our meal. The space itself is not only spacious but also beautifully designed. If you find yourself in the area, I highly recommend stopping by!
