Lucille's Smokehouse BBQ

08/21/2008 Posted by kevinlikes2eat

Great food, great service!!! My kids pick Lucille's every chance they get!! Must be those lollipops!! Great atmosphere with the ambience of BBQ permiating through the restaurant. The only negative I have is the baby back ribs or sometimes a little dry. The Tri-tip is to die for!!!!!! Good food at a descent price!!

Pros: large menu, great selection

Cons: baby back ribs are sometimes a bit dry

I go to Lucilles quite often with my family. Love it. Wait can be a little long at times. I agree with previous poster....been to "Outlaws" and there's no wait and prices are better with over a dozen sauces.

Lucille's is walking distance from my house. The BBQ is great but a little expensive. I like the atmosphere. I am always looking for a great place for ribs. I tried the new place on Eastern "Outlaws". That place is just as good as Lucille's.

Pros: Good BBQ

Cons: Long wait, prices are high

We have been here several times and have never been disappointed with the quality or the portions. An earlier review mentioned that this might not be a place for seniors - balderdash! We enjoy the family atmosphere and you can take home the leftovers and there will be some. Excellent appetizers, especially the crab cakes, fried tomatoes and fried pickles. The drinks are excellent, especially the Bloody Mary. Every side is a generous portion and fantastic. The rib racks are large, tasty and moist but the sandwiches are also tops. The cheeseburger is as good a burger as you can find. No disappointments here, if you love BBQ, you will love this place. We usually eat in the bar and they have a band on weekends. The music played the rest of the time includes blues and Cajun and is great. Go and have fun!

Pros: The entire menu is tops and it has great "atmosphere"

Cons: Cost more than most rib joints

The food and service were superb. The Mardi Gras Chicken was to die for (who could eat all those mashed potatoes) and the ribs were also great with several sauces and sides to choose from.. We both added the Caesar salad to our menu choices and were very pleased. This is a great place to take families with children, not your senior parents. We have eaten ( not dined) here several times and continue to return. .However, we seem to forget between visits ,that the company policy in seating does not take into consideration that families with small children should be seated together. If we have non-smoking areas in restaurants why not designated adults only areas. Let the patrons choose. Especially earlier in the evening when the restaurant is "wide open". We would have loved to try their desserts but the commotion at adjoining tables was too much to endure. Yet we return for the great food.

Pros: Great Food and Service

Cons: No Adult Seating Only areas

This is a family favorite in my house! Everything that we have tried on their menu has yet to disappoint. The ribs are thick and meaty, the brisket is juicy, and the sides are wonderful. Homemade biscuits are served before the meal with sweet butter. A personal favorite of mine is the pulled pork sandwich. They give you a selection of three different sauces for your meal items, each sauce is equally delicious. Aside from the food, the atmosphere is great as well. You find yourself eating in a very realistic and cute southern plantation type home. This is a great place to bring your family and friends. Be prepared to be completely stuffed afterwards!

I have tried several BBQ places in las vegas. This place is by far the best I have had. The ribs are so good, and perfectly juicy. the original bbq sauce is outstanding. The sides are fresh and delicious, and the portions are enormous. Its a little pricy, but really, if you make the best ribs in town, you can charge for em.

Pros: Way good.

Cons: A little pricy.

I have dined here many times. The food is excellent and the portions are huge. The microbrews are very good and the rest of the beer selection and liqour drinks are worth checking out. The southwest vinegarette is a great choice for the salad dressing. The blackened shrimp is delicous as is the rib tip appetizer. The greens are great, but the mac and cheese is a little too much like velveeta. If you are with a large group or ordering for catering keep this in mind - we had my birthday dinner there with 8 people, ordered the backyard family feast that is supposed to feed 4. We were all stuffed AND had leftovers. The portions are huge! Another good reason to eat here is the outdoor seating (with heaters and misters) and the District where it's located is fun to walk around and explore before or after dinner.

Pros: Food, Price

I am usually not one to promote chains, but the ribs at Lucilles are worth a try. To me they are much better than Memphis Babq. If there are better ribs in Vegas somebody please let me know.
