It's said that if you put two southerners in a room you will get three different ways to BBQ. Lucille's is not the BBQ of my childhood, which was a dry BBQ, but it sure is delicious. The sauce is delicious, the side dishes... (more)

I was never big on bbq ribs, but this place is pretty hard to resist. The portions are enormous and the bbq sauce is sweet like honey. The chicken, on the other hand, is a bit dry, but then again, why would you order chicken... (more)

In an old Southern style setting, scrumptious ribs served in a pleasing amount is just a taste of their varied selections offered. With a packed house, the wait is all worthwhile!! (more)

Has to be the best BBq I have ever had. Try the pork chops. They are delicious. The beef ribs are also to die for. The tri tip is ok. But the pork chops are the best. (more)
