    We had a great experience here at this Lucilles! The food was great as always. We ordered onion straws, chicken ceasar salad, chimichuri steak, and meat combos. We also had peach lemonade snd the new watermelon spritzer. All were tasty. The only minor complaint was that the chicken on the Caesar salad was dryyyyy, but the flavor was still good! The service was great! We were greeted sweetly and seated quickly. Our waitress Kaylia was amazing. She continuously checked on us and made sure everything was perfect. We always had everything we needed. She was so sweet and did such a great job! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is clean and decorated cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There is a lot of parking and a lot of up front handicap parking. Overall, we had a great experience at this location and would definitely return!

    Tonight we wanted bbq and thought let's go to Lucille's. Hubby ordered half rack of babyback ribs with bbq beans and picnic potato salad and he said his ribs were dried out and the best part of his meal was the potato salad. I ordered the 9 oz tri tip which is supposedly cooked all day, but mine was RAW!!! and I tried to microwave it and some turned out hard and other pieces cooked more. Some pieces were hard fat or something. I was so grossed out that I didn't eat it and will be contacting the management for a refund. The watermelon looked white and should have never been put in my order, but the manager Andrew is taking care of that. Unfortunately, I didn't have my whole meal unboxed yet when I contacted him. The best part of my meal was the bbq beans. I do have to say the manager was responsive and friendly. We will update you when this has a resolution.

    Lunch Build Your Own Bbq Pick 3 - 1/2 Bbq chicken, Tri tip, & Brisket with a side of sautéed vegetables
    Katrina N.

    Came here because my boyfriend was craving meat & surprisingly has never been to Lucille's. We were seated right away. Our server was nice and came by every now and then to check on us during our meal. We started off with the Southern Favorites Appetizer Platter. It had Southern Fried Dill Pickles, Lucille's Onion Straws, Smokehouse Cheese Curds, Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage, Spinach & Cheese Dip, crispy tortilla chips with creole mustard sauce and BBQ ranch for dipping. We both enjoyed the onion straws and spinach & cheese dip. The cheese curds are good when it's nice and hot, while the cheese is still soft and melty. Once it gets cold, the cheese curds get hot. The pickles IMO were too sour (and I like pickles). The sausage was good. Not too spicy but it had a kick to it. I got the Lunch Build Your Own BBQ Pick 2 - Bbq Chicken & Pulled Pork with a side of Mac & cheese. The pull pork was dry even with the sauce on top. And the Mac and cheese looked so bland like it's been sitting in a cafeteria waiting to be served. My chicken was nice and juicy. I got the leg and thigh. It had lots of flavor to it. I did an add on of the Ceasar salad. For me, it was overdressed and had too much of the garlic breadcrumbs on the top, which got soggy right away because of the overdressing. If anything they should have served the dressing on the side. My boyfriend got the Lunch Build Your Own Bbq Pick 3 - Bbq chicken, Tri tip, & Brisket with a side of sautéed vegetables. He enjoyed the tri tip. But his brisket looked super dry even with the au jus. The chicken looked good as I think it was the other 1/2 of my chicken. So he got the breast. But it kind of dry as well as the breast part can get dry. He enjoyed his vegetables but it didn't look appealing to me. The biscuits they serve on the house are good. It comes out nice and warm so when you put the butter it melts right away. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place had a cool ambiance. It wasn't too loud as we got there around lunch time before it got busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Biscuit with apple butter
    Shawn C.

    I'm a longtime many decades customer and fan of Lucille's it's truly one of my favorite bbq restaurants in Long Beach. On a cool day in California what's a girl to do when she doesn't want to cook she's orders up some good food. I hit up the search bar on Yelp and see endlessly possibilities of a dip into deliciousness for bbq I choose Lucille's and here's my take on the food. I order up something different from my usual a full rack of baby back ribs extra spicy bbq sauce baked beans cornbread and greens. 10/10 I chose gumbo an order of biscuits with apple butter just because and my dessert choice is banana pudding. Gumbo It's very different than the kind I've eaten this one has a thick and rich sauce with chicken tiny bites of sausages and shrimp it's well seasoned and was absolutely delicious not traditional but oh soo good. 9/10 Rice Steamed and fluffy and sprinkled with gumbo fillet over rice I asked for this on the side. 8/10 Biscuits With Apple Butter. Tender thick and delicious biscuits sprinkled with sugar and smeared with apple butter on top its so good. Apple Butter is delicious I'm soo glad they sent extra. I placed the leftover biscuits in small baggies putting them in my freezer to enjoy on another day they freeze and reheat perfectly. 8/10 Banana Pudding Layered with a layer of cookie crumble tasty banana pudding sliced bananas and creamy real whipped cream there were only two pieces of sliced bananas. A lot pudding whipped cream the only missing component is bananas the bank pudding flavor is even more delicious after it settled the next day. For $8.99 I'd prefer to make it at home however the flavor is good so I'll kick it up to 8/10 [[HIGHLIGHT]]If bbq is what you crave I can definitely vouch for Lucille's this place is legit well staffed and clean the drinks are fire and the food is always bomb.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] FYI I don't see green or fried fish on the menu anymore so that is the only bummer or complaint hopefully they put it back on the menu soon.. On my way out I usually buy a bottle of original bbq sauce and a bottle of spicy it's soo good on home bbq. Until next time just me Shawn C.

    I came here to retry Lucille's except I picked up the food this time. First I'll start with service. The gentlemen who took my to go order was very nice and polite. When I got home I noticed how organized my food was. It was hot, delicious and so much food! I decided to come back after the manager of this location reached out. I do appreciate when management reaches out and extends a curtesy message along with a credit. I recommend this place because overall my experience was pleasant. I'll bring my hubby next time .

    Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich and fries
    Sam S.

    Excellent food, easy parking and good, friendly service. This location is quite large with indoor and patio seating. I went back after a while for lunch. I had the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich, which I had been craving since coming back from Nashville last week. It tasted really good. I will definitely be back for Happy Hour and dinner. I would highly recommend.

    Yummy

    Haven't been to #lucilles in a while the food was yummy as I remembered. Service was great the server was very attentive to me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is cool and has an old fashioned vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will definitely return...

    All kids of ribs for at least 3 people.
    Al C.

    I picked up an order of 3 meats combo (Baby Back ribs, Spare Ribs, and Beef ribs) for about $61 bucks. It feeds at least 3 individuals. But I was very disappointed with the sides. Mac/cheese and one cornbread muffin. They could have at least given me 2 cornbreads. And what about including some biscuits, too!!! I'm taking my hard earned money to another rib house from now on.

    Thanksgiving special
    Adrianna V.

    Went here for Thanksgiving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I didn't expect it to be so crowded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Luckily we found seats at the bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However there were people waiting for a long time. I ordered the Thanksgiving special with turkey and ham. It definitely isn't the same as having this at home with family but we were here... the mac n cheese was honestly not my favorite.. I prefer the baked crispy edges..this looked microwaved.. the stuffing was a bit on the salty side but was ok since it balanced out with the ham.. the turkey was really nice and juicy! Service was great and the staff was so busy you can tell they were doing their best. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Id prefer to eat at a table but being that we didn't have to wait.. we were fortunate..[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I brought my family here for dinner. It was a last-minute decision and did not make any reservation. However, they were very accommodating and have us seated in no time. The food is great and they give you a lot on your plate. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is more on the casual side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think this will be my new place to bring my friends that are visiting or my family..

    Sallie R.

    Haven't been here in a while. Went to have lunch with a friend. I had ordered two meats and a side meal for $18.50 which were tri tips, jalapeño cheese sausage, and Mac and cheese. Thought portion size was a bit small for the price, but meal was still good. Service was wonderful considering bartender had to take care of the bar and tables as well. Handled everything perfectly fine at fast pace. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice modern calm relaxing atmosphere with rock star vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely return for some more bar-b-que goods in the future.

    BBQ Beef Ribs, Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage, Dill Pickles, Macaroni and Cheese, Roasted Garlic Mashed Potato, potato salad, and Biscuits
    Molly M.

    Large portions! Ordered online. Very easy and the ability to choose your pick up time that is a minimum 30 minutes from the order time. I ordered a 3 meat plate with 2 sides. Selected the sliced brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, and paid extra for the beef ribs. We got 3 beef ribs which were fairly large. It was good, but it wasn't as tender compared to other BBQ places I've been to. Japaleno cheddar sausage was delicious. Would definitely get this again. Perfect amount of kick and flavor. Very juicy. Unfortunately, they forgot to pack the brisket and BBQ sauce however they made up for it by compensating our entire plate. Great customer service! Thank you! For the sides, I got the potato salad and mashed potato with biscuits and apple butter. The biscuits and apple butter were amazing. The butter was slightly sweet and flavorful. I also ordered the fried pickles and kids chicken tenders with mac and cheese. Everything was delicious. Even to go, it was so good. I can only imagine how much better it would have tasted fresh. The ranch paired perfectly with the pickles and chicken. Kids loved the mac and cheese. The portions were great and plenty to feed our family of 4. We will definitely come back to try their other BBQ items and dine-in.

    We recently visited Lucille's Smokehouse Bar-B-Que and had a great overall experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming and friendly, and we were seated immediately. Even though the restaurant was pretty busy that day, the service never skipped a beat--it remained attentive and genuinely pleasant throughout our visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, with charming Southern-style décor that added to the warm, inviting atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe was lively yet comfortable, making it a great spot for a sit-down meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To start, we were served their complimentary biscuits, which were absolutely delicious--warm, fluffy, and a perfect way to kick off the meal. For our main dishes, we ordered: Pick 2 Combo: Pulled Chicken, Half BBQ Chicken, Mashed Potatoes, and Macaroni & Cheese, Southern Fried Chicken: Chicken breast dipped in buttermilk, breaded, deep-fried, topped with Grandpa's pan gravy, served with garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed seasonal vegetables. The half BBQ chicken was cooked perfectly--tender, juicy, and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were also very good and well-seasoned. However, the pulled chicken and macaroni and cheese were my least favorite items. The pulled chicken wasn't bad, but the BBQ sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste; if it were less sweet, it would have been much better. As for the macaroni and cheese, it really just needs a new recipe--it didn't do much for me flavor-wise. On the other hand, the Southern fried chicken was excellent. It was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the pan gravy added great depth of flavor. The sautéed vegetables were cooked perfectly and seasoned well, making this dish a standout. Overall: Great service, a welcoming atmosphere, and some very strong menu items. While a couple of sides didn't hit for me, the fried chicken and BBQ chicken alone make Lucille's worth visiting again.

I originally ordered the bbq nachos and he said the portion for the one on the menu is meant for 2 people and offered a smaller one ( half the price). So glad he did because the half one was plenty. I rather enjoyed the nacho , comes with brisket ( very tasty and tender meat). Fiancé ordered the St Louise rib n meat.

I eventually got up and asked if someone was going to serve us. The employee told me that the server was busy and that we would have to keep waiting. I politely asked if there was only one server assigned to each section because I was simply trying to understand the situation. Instead of answering professionally, she rolled her eyes at me and responded in a rude tone. There was absolutely no reason for that, as I asked my question respectfully. The most frustrating part is that even after that conversation, no one ever came to our table. We ended up leaving without receiving any service. I understand that restaurants can get busy, but there is no excuse for completely ignoring guests or treating them disrespectfully. I hope management addresses both the customer service and the staff's attitude so that other guests don't have the same experience.

The inside was hot and thick and all of the meats in the case were vacuum sealed. They have a paper menu on the counter and sides listed on a chalkboard to the side.

I got a brisket sandwich (add pickles) and when I asked about sides, he told me mac salad or potato with a preference on the potato so that's what I got. He then gave me a sampler of their smoked dips on crackers and I gotta say the chicken was the best one, but it was pretty expensive. I think it was like 22 dollars for 8 ounces, so I passed. While I was waiting for my food, that other couple came in and they were ordering a LOT. When they asked about sides, the guy gestured to the menu and told them all were available. I was like wait what, I thought (based on the time of day) they only had the two he offered to me. He was like, nah we have more. So then I put in a second transaction to get a side of their chili and red beans and rice. I felt a little weird about it because it was served in the same plastic containers as the cold items, but heated so the sides and lid were all suctioned in. Overall I thought the sides were delicious and service was very kind despite the previous lack of clear communication but my sandwich was just kind of whatever. Plus the menus didnt have any prices so I didnt know how much anything was until it was time to tap my card so it was a little $$$.

I was a little skeptical at first, but I'm glad we decided to give it a try. The ordering process was simple. You place your order and pay at the front counter, find a seat, and they bring your food to you using a number system to locate your table. I ordered the catfish and asked for it extra crispy. It was delicious! The outside had a great crunch, soft inside. I got mac and cheese and greens. The mac and cheese was cool. It wasn't the kind that tastes like somebody's grandma made it, but it was definitely better than what you get at most restaurants. The greens had a slight vinegar taste but they paired well with the rest of the food. One of my friends ordered the jumbo fried shrimp and really enjoyed them. She also got a Dirty Kool-Aid, she said that it wasn't very strong. Her girlfriend enjoyed her meal as well. What stood out to me was that I finished everything on my plate.

We were quoted a 15-20 minute wait for a table, but it ended up being closer to 55 minutes. To make matters worse, the hostess left for her break without providing any update or communicating the delay. The restaurant appeared to be significantly understaffed, and the slow, inattentive service reflected that throughout our visit. The restroom was also in poor condition, with trash and paper scattered across the floor; something that, in hindsight, should have been a clear indicator for us to reconsider dining there. We chose to visit because we genuinely wanted to support a Black-owned business, and I had hoped the experience would match the restaurant's inviting atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food was average at best. The chicken was well-seasoned and cooked properly, but the portion sizes were noticeably smaller than expected. We ordered a crawfish bowl and a wing dinner with two side pairings, and, surprisingly, the Kool-Aid was the highlight of the meal. One final frustration came when paying with cash: we were informed that customers are expected to provide exact change because the restaurant does not keep cash on hand. That policy created an unnecessary inconvenience and left a poor final impression. I don't discourage others from giving Louisiana Charlie's a try, as every dining experience can be different, and perhaps we simply visited on an off day. However, based on our experience, we won't be returning.

That butter belongs in the cornbread. The Mac was incredibly bad. Oh yeah, I already said that above. Goes to show you how awful it was. It was orange but not a hint of cheese flavor. The ribs were ok, but still dry. Chicken was, well, dry as a dessert but with what I believe was supposed to be smoke rings or char. Idk. Could nkt get past the lack of seasoning coupled with the tree bark dry texture. On the bright side... The bbq sauce was BOMB! 9/10 The sausage was some of the best both I and my party guests have had. 10/10 The brisket was edible but not memorable. That sauce however made it a forerunner in the entire waisted attempt to eat a great bday dinner with friends. Fully enjoyed my friends as we always have a great time. This food however was a total letdown. My honest question: How is this place surviving and who would ever recommend this spot to someone searching for bbq. I'd say do not believe the hype you read on LB FOOD SCENE. The recommendations were a missed shot. Waste of MUCH money and time. I'd never go out if my way to book here. Sorry.
