    FAMILY SUPPER FEAST FAMILY SUPPER FEAST
    Enrique M.

    I would love to say this place is hands downs one of my favorite restaurants and birthday events I host once in a while. We booked in a reservations for 4pm on Sunday @ August 30. I came a little early and decided to check out the bar and had myself an old fashioned drink. I was honestly impressed with the quality of the drink and service that was provided here upon early arrival. Thank goodness for my bartender . ADRIAN you were amazing and marvelous at what you do. Give this man a promotion. Thank again Adrian . I would also like to say that I enjoyed my time here but would like to see some progress with the severs that were on stand-by waiting 20 mins seated at a table with no drinks and on menus in our hands. We waited patiently and mind you we had reservations at 4 pm I came obviously beforehand and was here til our table was ready. We were seated immediately by the host . Nice young lady . We waited for 20 mins and had our party waiting with menus in hand . Until a nice waitress named Cassidy with no hesitation came to our table . The rest of Lucile's staff were on stand-by staring at our table previously as if we were invisible . Everything else was great . The food was delicious . The background is amazing in here love this place and the vibes for sure.!

    Ever since my last review, I have been here few times and the service seems to improved at the bar. Bartenders were very attentive and food comes out very fast. Ambiance was also great. I m reconsidering coming back here regularly.

    The food is good here. It's probably my favorite bbq spot right now, they got some great pulled pork bbq burgers and a great bbq cheeseburger that taste so well. They offer some complimentary BBQ salsas at each table that complement any of your dishes really well. They got regular BBQ, spicy BBQ, and a hot Memphis option. Put a little bit on any dish, and it makes the dish 25x better. They have a great kids menu as well; they have multiple options from burgers to nuggets to pizza to mac and cheese, plus they can order a sundae for just 2 dollars. They really excel at drinks here; they've got some house-made refreshers that go well with your food, or you can just grab a classic good old draft beer. I got myself the BBQ burger and mixed it with some regular BBQ sauce and spicy sauce, and it was a 10/10 burger; I had to devour it all. You can buy the sauces to go; they are only 5 bucks. Customer service is top-notch, and overall the place is just really good. I love this place!

    First time here, came for a girls day. Our waitress Sarah was amazing. Gave me some great picks for being my first time.I got the 3 course meal for two with tri tip, pull pork, ribs with mash potatoes and corn with side salads. A sampler platter and kids chicken nuggets. Drinks were jack and the giant peach, and watermelon margaritas. The inside was so beautiful, very clean.

    BBQ BEEF RIBS
    Joni S.

    First off... Danny is the epitome of a hard worker. Made an agreement that we'd always ask for him to be our waiter. Got the hookups with my double beef rib combo. After an immediate fist bump when I put in my order. Where the atmosphere lacked, Danny's attentiveness and overall friendliness made the night memorable! Give the young man a raise!

    What I ordered

    So I came to Lucille's today after going to the Apple Store, which is an adventure in itself so I walked over and looked at the menu and saw that they had a two meat deal and you can add an extra meat for $10 but since it was at lunchtime, I guess the server did not understand that that's what I was trying to order so in the confusion I just ordered the 3 meat meal which was $28 I ordered the pork belly burnt ends and the brisket I was gonna order for the $10 more so St. Louis cut ribs, but I didn't get to, but I figured I would be able to taste the pork since I'm getting pork belly it should be close to the same seasoning and sauce. I got also potato salad and I also got the beans. I was thinking about getting the mac & cheese, but I always get disappointed when I eat commercial restaurants mac & cheese so I opted for those two sides. first off they shouldn't stop saying that they smoke their brisket. I know smoked brisket when I taste it and there's not a inch of any kind of smoke on that brisket. It taste just like pot roast. I didn't even finish it. The pork belly on the other hand was very good. I was very happy that I picked up. I wish I would've tasted the ribs, but that's for another day. Maybe the potato salad was OK. the beans was the best thing on the plate. The biscuit is dry and I don't think they make the butter so I'm not giving them any credit for that. I know I said I might come back just to taste the pork ribs, but I don't think I'm going to come back. There's other places in Santa Clarita that I can get barbecue.

    Worst meal I have ever had
    Kevin R.

    We used a Christmas gift card (thanks to whoever gave it!) to try Lucille's Smokehouse BBQ, hoping for a solid meal. The restaurant was surprisingly empty when we arrived, which should have been a red flag. We ordered the 2-meat, 2-side combo, brisket (with the $1.50 upcharge) and pulled chicken, plus street corn ($1.99 upcharge) and garlic mashed potatoes. The food arrived looking dismal right away. The brisket came in just three tiny, sad slices overcooked to the texture of tough beef jerky, hard, chewy, stringy, and completely lacking any tenderness or smoke flavor. The pulled chicken was even worse, clearly strips pulled from pre-cooked drumsticks, drowning in an overwhelmingly sweet,sauce that masked any real taste.The sides were a total disappointment too. The street corn had faint grill marks but was rock-hard, dry, flavorless, and completely devoid of butter or seasoning. The mashed potatoes tasted like they came straight from a box bland, powdery, and forgettable. Service was practically nonexistent, slow, inattentive, and zero check-ins. But honestly, even bad service couldn't compete with how terrible the food was.I've had better BBQ from chain fast-food places. This was hands-down the worst meal I've ever paid for! I have no idea how this location stays in business. If you value your money (or your taste buds), go literally anywhere else.

    BABY BACK RIBS FULL RACK
    Julia C.

    If I could put a 0 stars, I would! These food ruined our dinner! We ordered 2 full racks of baby back ribs, which were hard as rock and dry, the size wasn't saying full racks at all. Never going back again!

    Toros B.

    The food was really amazing the barbecue sauce was perfect on the baby back ribs I recommend coming here if you want a good feast. service was super nice and friendly and the waiter and was a good person. I will come here again because this place is amazing.

    Fluffy biscuits
    Shawn N.

    I like this place and frequent it often. However, I had a couple of issues with the food and then the order itself, lately. Nothing major but just really inconvenient when you're hungry. Although, I must say, the customer service was stellar! The manager, Joey, made a few efforts to rectify the problem and show that my complete satisfaction was his priority. Mission accomplished! They got it right and I ended up with very tasty and tender baby back ribs, crispy fried chicken tender appetizers (they should season them more), good potato salad and bbq beans, a refreshing strawberry lemonade and fluffy biscuits (the sugar on top isn't necessary for those who want savory). Way to go to keep your customers happy and returning!

    I love pigs. Wish this meant Lucille's does too, just sayin' ... cute plates though.

    Before I begin to give you my analysis of Lucille's, based on my one and only visit, I want to remind you of two things: I always compare/rate a place based on its category and like venues and I am a lifelong vegetarian/vegan. OK, so, as one of my Yelp buddies who is also a vegetarian pointed out, it may seem strange to see us eating at what is clearly a meat joint like Lucille's. However, if you have been a vegetarian (and a teetotaler, sort of) as long as I have, you will have had to find things to eat and drink in every type of place, all over the world. And, you become quite clever at it. That said, Lucille's has a lot of great things for a vegetarian (fewer for vegans, but they are there). It is actually a broad and deep menu and I realized I saw too many things I liked, to have all in one visit. My pictures will show you what I ordered, so I won't go into it here and if you really study the menu, looking at every single item, you will find as I did a lot of great choices. The place itself is enormous. There is one huge main room and flankers. There is also an outdoor/indoor patio and a giant wrap around bar. I imagine it must be full on Friday and Saturday nights. But, since it is very family friendly, it probably packs people in every night of the week. We were there on a late afternoon, Sunday, after an exhausting Saturday, so, all I wanted to do was slide into a booth and vegetate and have comfort stuff ferried to me. Our server, Natalia was super. She was chill but warm and friendly and genuinely seemed to understand what I was looking for. She has also worked for the Lucille's chain for over five years and loves it. That is an important aspect of a successful restaurant: happy, well cared for staff. The food was delicious. It is probably fattening, I won't deny it and so I had to take a lot home in the sturdy black plastic containers she happily brought. The tab was really reasonable. The place is clean, the art on the walls -- simulating, I guess, New Orleans vibes? -- is charming. It was noisy but not too much so. The music was good but not intrusive. Oh, and it is at the lovely Valencia Town Center, such a great place, easy parking, perfect for exhausted diners, LOL. If you are a vedger, don't hesitate to try it. Bring your creativity, relax and have a delicious meal, stress-free.

    50% fat brisket - don't recommend
    Ania D.

    My first time here. We ordered pick two with tri tip and extra brisket. Tri tip was a-ok, nothing to write home about. Brisket was dissatisfying- I don't recommend it. It was dry and flavorless, AND at the same time it was super fatty. On the top, you can see all the fat we cut off. At the bottom, 50% of the brisket is just fat. When we asked if we can exchange uneaten pieces, we were told "No."

    BBQ Chicken Salad
    Stephanie B.

    Okay so I gave in & gave them another chance but decided to order something completely different. We got the comeback fries & added brisket to them for some protein. We also got the pulled pork sandwich w/ side of veggies (super flavorful & not soggy) & bbq chicken salad.. honestly the fries & salad were 10/10. The cheese sauce on the fries was delicious & the fries weren't soggy. The salad was super refreshing and filling & I love the crispy onions on top. The meat on the pulled pork sandwich was good & I like the brioche buns they use. I would come back for the salad & loaded fries & would try a different sandwich next time Also Dylan was our server & he was great! He was super attentive & patient with helping us order; great service

It's like $15 more than the sandwich. I said it was fine and they gave us some buns. She seemed annoyed and that kind of ruined my meal a little...partially my fault. When food arrived and I said it was fine, she just left. We didn't hit utensils. I waited 5-10 minutes and she was still in the back. I got up and got them myself. 15 minutes later, the table next to me also got the food and no utensils. That should one of the first things they improve on. The sauces were very good and I loved that part of the restaurant. It was pretty quite and calm atmosphere. They have a full bar. The bill came and it was $200 plus tip. My kids had a kids plate and another adult plate. It's pricey. We didn't want to go to a chain to support our local spots. Unfortunately, I won't be returning. I went to a famous steakhouse the next week, purchased a bunch of cocktails, 2 plates, and an appetizer for $200. Food is good. Service is so so and prices are high.

It was pretty busy for it to be so early. The weight staff was very friendly and very warm and welcoming. Every single person we encountered. We ordered takeout. We had the caveman's platter and the links platter. As sides we had brussels sprouts, mac & cheese, cowboy beans and the plates came with cornbread. I was bummed they did not have collard greens and they did not have potato salad. Apparently collard greens are no longer being served. They've not yet updated their menu. And the potato salad we were advised that a large party had come before us, so there was no more. Which is crazy sad it was only noon and I think they open like at nine or 10 AM. So I kind of felt like we had to resort to what was left and based on how much food we ordered, we had six sides we had to select. Brisket vs Tri Tip- I'm a fatty meat kind of girl. So I definitely preferred the tri-tip. Which had more flavor than the brisket. Now, do not give me wrong by that statement. Because both meats are very good. You can taste that smoke for sure. But the one that you could eat without any sauce would be the tri-tip. The ribs were excellent. The barbecue links were good too. You only get two in the plate and they cut them up in little pieces. But they're good. They weren't overly spicy and they still had some good snap to them. Meats: 9.5/10 The barbecue sauce is a no. It is heavy on the vinegar so bring your own barbecue sauce. The brussels sprouts were I'd say 7/10. They weren't anything too fancy there's kind of like a balsamic on it. They're good but they're not amazing. It could've probably used like some bacon bits or something in it. I don't know. The mac & cheese is a no. It's literally large mushy noodles and watery cheese sauce.. and the cheese sauce is bland. 3/10 The cowboy beans were OK. It's more like a chili for sure. There's a lot going on in them but again they're pretty good. They lean more on the tangy side. When I say tangy, it's probably vinegar and ketchupy if I had to pinpoint the tastes. 6/10. The cornbread is a no. It's more flour based than corn. It falls apart pretty easy. It's kind of dense. At any rate, I'd prefer Jiffy over whatever they're using. 4/10

    I live near Koreatown in LA and this spot is like home away from home when I visit family!…read more It is located in a large mini mall so there is ample parking. Inside, it is roomy, modern minimalist design with a high ceiling. Each table has a grill in the middle with a vent above. Staff turns the grill on low to prevent overcooking. (and yes, you are cooking your own meat which is the fun part.) I normally order all-you-can-eat menu A. I prefer the non-marinated meats - beef brisket, thin pork belly, beef belly and beef sirloin and dipping it in the oil/salt/pepper and the soy jalapeno dip. It's flavorful and "clean" in taste. I do like the marinated meats like the beef bulgogi, garlic chicken and spicy pork. They are marinated perfectly. I just prefer tasting the meat on its own. As with all KBBQ spots, you are given an array of banchan that can range from kimchi, pickled everything (radish, cucumber, daikon), potato salad and tofu. You also get a personal size serving of rice. Staff is very helpful and friendly and they switch the grill after each rotation. I can barely finish three rounds of meat so paying around $40 is well worth the price. This is place is great for hanging out with friends, a casual date or bringing the whole family. (For children, if the adults are buying the AYCE menu, children are charged by their height. My four year old niece barely eats so $10 is a great price and we don't have to pay for full price like some places do.

    Disappointing service ruined the experience We just left,…read moreand while the food wasn't the issue, the service was frustratingly bad. It's Korean barbecue--meaning the kitchen isn't even cooking a full prepared meal, they literally just need to bring out raw slices of meat for us to cook ourselves on the grill--so there's no excuse for delays like this. Our first round of three meats and sides came out fine, but everything went completely downhill after that. As we were finishing up that first round, we placed an order for our next batch. Five minutes went by, then 10, then 15... and almost 20 minutes later, we were still sitting there with nothing. What made it so obvious they forgot us was that a server even came by and gave us a fresh grill--yet we had literally no meat to put on it and our plates were completely empty. Meanwhile, server after server walked right past us (it seems like no one is assigned to specific tables) while every other table around us had plenty of fresh meat cooking. When we finally flagged someone down to ask about our order, they said they'd check. From where we were sitting, we could see directly into the kitchen, and it was obvious our order was never even submitted in the first place. To make matters worse, instead of coming over to apologize or update us, they just made us wait in silence. When the meat was finally ready, they simply dropped it off without a single word of apology. Unfortunately, it didn't get any better. When we ordered another round of meat, they got the order completely wrong and then served our food to a different table. Between the complete lack of organization, long delays for raw meat, and zero communication or accountability, the service really ruined what should have been an enjoyable meal.

    I frequently order takeout from Stonefire Grill - I am a sucker for their BBQ Chopped Salad. On…read morethis occasion though, I was hosting family in town from the midwest, and wanted to place a catering order so that we could feed this multi-generational group. I was blown away by the level of service provided to me by a Ms. Stephanie Stein. She was so incredibly helpful and polite, patient and professional. She went over specific menu items and packages that would feed and please everyone in my group including the kids. She suggested items that I hadn't thought to include in my order that ended up being a huge hit with my guests. They felt "spoiled by the feast" and she really helped me plan a great visit by making the process of ordering so easy. I fully intend to work with her again the next time I have a large group of guests to entertain and the staff at Stonefire Grill - Valencia really came though. Everything was packaged up perfectly, on time, hot, and absolutely delicious.

    We received gift cards from Stonefire Grill for our anniversary. We decided to make the trip from…read moreBakersfield to try it out. I wasn't quite knowing what to expect. I had kind of scanned over their menu prior to going just so I could have an idea of what to expect. My wife and I ordered a special that came with two different types of tri-tip a family salad to share breadsticks and a pepperoni pizza. This was the perfect meal being that we were eating along with our three-year-old son. My wife and I both got to enjoy the tri-tip and salad while my son got to enjoy his pizza that he loves. Everything was absolutely great. I'm usually not much of a salad eater, but this Caesar salad was absolutely fantastic. Both of the tri-tips had excellent flavor and we're cooked to absolute perfection. The breadsticks were great tasting. And the pizza was cooked to absolute perfection and was full of flavor. You got to love when the pepperoni bake up into cups. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained. They offered both indoor and outdoor seating. You place your order up at the registers and then you find a seat for yourself.
