    Chicken Breast Platter
    Justine L.

    We were seated almost immediately once we came in. The store wasn't too busy but it took a while for a waiter to attend to us. We ordered our food and it came pretty quickly. I would say the food is more quantity over quality. It's not bad bbq but definitely not a staple bbq location. We were a little disappointed that the brisket was a pulled brisket and not a slab of meat. That should be clarified on the menu.

    Tropical Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette Dressing
    Scott C.

    We stopped in for a refreshing tropical salad with raspberry vinaigrette dressing and grilled chicken. It was the perfect thing for a warm sunny day in Delray Beach. The service was excellent and our server was the friendliest young lady. Add this to your list of wonderful choices for your dining experience.

    CHILI
    Daren R.

    In the Delray Marketplace was Lucille's BBQ restaurant and we wanted to try their chili since most BBQ places have great Ribs, chicken and chili. They put alot of thought into the decor with mosaic ceilings complemented with yellow sofas and flag painted wall murals. Well, one of the employees informed us that the chili was very meaty and great. We ordered the small cup instead of the large bowl, thank God. We sat outside on the beautiful covered patio and dug into our chili. Sadly, there were a few chunks of beef swimming in liquid and the only thing we could taste were the red beans (see pic) - no flavor and no spice except for the side chips that were great and crispy. It tasted worse than a supermarket bought chili. So to say the least I was super disappointed. Even though this adventure was "tasteless" I would give their babyback ribs a try. Some good deals - Half off all wine on Wednesdays and $19.99 half rack babyback ribs on Mondays. The wall display of assorted hot sauces was a nice touch for a BBQ joint. The bathroom was clean and had a modern rustic decor.

    The food, the service was amazing. The pulled pork was out of this world! The owner was friendly and came out and greeted customers. They have indoor and outdoor dining, very spacious. We had so much food to take home. The next time I have a hankering for BBQ, this where I'll go!

    The flag paintings on the walls and the scent of tangy bbq ribs was amazing when I entered the restaurant. It was later in the day and not busy. The staff were friendly and ordered the chili which was bland tasting and watery, not sure much can be fixed about this. The outside patio was beautiful and at a good section of the marketplace across from the publix.

    Rib Combo.
    Theodosios C.

    Baby Back Combo. GOOD. The Rib Meat easily fell off the Bone and seemed to melt away in your mouth once eaten. The nicely flavored Fries had a nice crunch to them. The Meal also included Cornbread and a CAESAR Salad. RECOMMEND.

    Fish & Chips
    Michael P.

    Hmm-well it wasn't bad but it wasn't great and we were starving! First the service was excellent -friendly -quick and attentive. We thought both the onion haystack and fish fry was a bit bready -and maybe on the greasy side-not terrible but could have been better. The chicken -was fresh but slightly overcooked leaving it Dry. The concept was fun and place was busy so maybe we just got something below our expectations. We'll try it again at some point and order something like the ribs and burger to see how they come out.

    Lucille's Bad to the Bone is a good place for BBQ RIBS AND CHICKEN AND the food is amazing . The place is small but they do not take reservations. The staff last night were not very friendly. The young adults working there were more interested in chatting than taken care of the customers. The service was nothing special. Today we tried the platter with bbq roasted chicken , shredded brisket and shedded chicken . It was amazing . Even the fries were hot and crispy. The over all meal was amazing the only negative was the servers were not friendly and the service was not great.

    Wow pulled pork sandwich w Mac n cheese and baked beans so good !

    Growing up in New York, Sunday was often the day the family would go out for Chinese food. So when…read moreI saw Chef Michael's video the other day announcing he was going to start offering Egg Rolls on Sundays, I immediately remembered wanting to try the BBQ Chinese Spareribs already on his regular menu. I started thinking... if the Chinese food at Flybird is anywhere near as impressive as everything else they do, this could be a revelation... especially considering the dearth of really good Chinese food in South Florida. So I waited for Sunday with anticipation. Yes... they had Egg Rolls! And I also noticed they recently added Egg Drop Soup to the regular menu. Perfect... now I could assemble a complete meal. In addition to the Egg Rolls, I ordered the Egg Drop Soup, BBQ Chinese Ribs, and Chicken Fried Rice. Wow! Winner Winner Chinese Dinner!! Everything was excellent. The Egg Drop Soup is rich and heartier than the versions you typically see... absolutely delicious. The Egg Roll is hand-rolled and feels like a gourmet interpretation... exactly what you'd expect if a serious chef decided to elevate a classic, served with housemade Duck Sauce and Chinese Mustard. The BBQ Ribs were also fantastic... fall-off-the-bone tender, meaty, and loaded with flavor. And then there's the Chicken Fried Rice... unlike any version you've probably had before. It's packed with generous chunks of chicken and real vegetables throughout. Broccoli in fried rice? When have you ever seen that? A huge portion too... loved it. Everything here always seems to be done with thought and care. We're lucky to have a serious chef like Michael bringing his culinary talent and creativity to Delray Beach. He keeps finding ways to surprise people... and that's a big part of what makes Flybird so much fun. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

The char grilled chicken is moist and delicious with crispy skin, and accompanied by a whole head of roasted garlic, a grilled lemon, fresh beaked bread, and a parsley dipping sauce.

I was seriously craving some BBQ so after consulting with the oracle of goodness ( also known as my Yelp app) we ventured out. It is a very small place that screams authentic the moment you walk in the door. No frills. Repeat, no frills. This isn't a date night place oozing with ambiance. I could smell the pit as we walked across the parking lot and my Pavlovian response kicked in. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich, mac and cheese, baked beans and hush puppies. I know what you're thinking, it's a lot of food but hey, don't judge me...LOL. I was amazed at the portion size. There was enough pulled pork to make three huge sandwiches. The brought out a roll in a zip lock sandwich bag and I promptly made and devoured some heavenly pork. So juicy, smoky and flavorful. The hush puppies were so good...crunchy brown on the outside, sweet and tender inside. I was popping these in my mouth and at frenetic and calorically unhealthy pace. They are delicious but moderation is advised. The baked beans were good but the mac and cheese was not on par with everything else. That's the only thing that didn't knock my socks off. My friend had the fried catfish. "Excellent" he exclaimed! Again, the portions were huge. He had fried okra and collard greens as his sides and he proclaimed them "the ultimate soul food" side dishes. The service was homey, polite and simple. Nothing fancy, just right. Needless to say it was more than we could eat and we got to-go containers to wrap up the rest for later. I only hope I can survive the oncoming food induced coma in time to rally for a big weekend. Highly recommended for serious "Q" lovers.
