Arrived on a Sunday around 4 PM and only had about a 10-minute wait. By the time we left around 6,…read morethe place had definitely picked up, so getting there earlier worked out well. Parking was also surprisingly easy, which is always a bonus. (Large lot shared with Costco though) The restaurant itself is spacious, with a separate bar/lounge area that's great if you want to grab a drink or play games while waiting for your table. The meat quality and sides easily exceeded my expectations. Everything came out fresh and well-seasoned, and the service was fast, attentive, and consistent throughout the meal. I also appreciated that the staff proactively changed the grill before we even had to ask. One of the highlights was the Melona ice cream bar at the end which was a nice that they offered more than one flavor. Overall, a really solid experience and definitely a spot I'd come back to.

Came here for AYCE KBBQ and was pleasantly surprised by how spacious the restaurant felt. Even with…read morea good number of diners, it never felt crowded or cramped. We went with the Choice option and thought the meat quality was decent overall. Nothing really stood out as a must-order, but everything was solid and hit the spot for an AYCE meal. One thing I really enjoyed was that they offered several different specialty salts for dipping the meat. It was a nice change from the usual sauces and added some variety to the flavors. One thing I really appreciated was the service. We came in pretty close to closing time, but the staff never made us feel rushed. They checked in multiple times before last call to make sure we had a chance to order anything else we wanted, which was a nice. The food also came out quickly, so there wasn't much waiting between rounds. The only item I wasn't a fan of was the spicy tofu soup. It had a slightly tomatoey flavor that wasn't what I was expecting and didn't quite work for me. Overall, a solid AYCE KBBQ spot with fast service, attentive staff, and a comfortable dining space.

I wanted to leave a review specifically to recognize Miguel the manager…read more Miguel provided outstanding customer service from the moment he introduced himself. He was friendly, professional, attentive, and made sure our family was well taken care of throughout our visit. It's clear that he truly cares about his guests and takes pride in what he does. Great customer service can make a lasting impression, and Miguel certainly did that for us. Thank you, Miguel, for your kindness, professionalism, and dedication to your customers. We truly appreciate it!

We also got the seafood pancake. It was probably one of the best pancakes ive had in a while. We paired everything with their new mocktails. The lychee flavored one was to die for.

Came here with a group on a busy night and our server Megan absolutely carried the experience. She…read morewas super attentive the entire time, constantly checking on us, changing our grill before we even had to ask, and making sure we never ran out of meats or sauce. Even though the restaurant was packed, she stayed friendly, fast, and organized the whole night! What stood out most was her energy! she made the table feel really welcomed and comfortable instead of rushed like a lot of AYCE KBBQ places. She gave great recommendations, explained menu items for some people in our group who were new to Korean BBQ, and kept the vibe fun the entire time. The restaurant itself was really clean, lively, and had a great atmosphere. The food came out quickly and everything tasted fresh. The brisket, spicy pork belly, and bulgogi were probably our favorites, and the sides and cheese corn were so good too. You can tell why this place is always busy. Honestly one of the best service experiences I've had at Mr. BBQ. Food was amazing, but the service is what made us want to come back. Ask for Maegan if you can!

Loved the Tajin spiced rim on my watermelon splash drink. Peachy drink was refreshing, too. Lunch 2 Meat BBQ Combo - ST. Louis Ribs (1/4 RACK) and BBQ Chicken (1/4) Both the ribs and the half chicken was moist, flavorful and absolutely delish and shareable. Added extra side of Mac & Cheese. It wasn't tasty and it was meh. Absolutely loved the baked Biscuit with the Apple Butter. Service was great. Waiter was friendly and helpful. Ambiance is nice and decorative throughout.

Review 65/365 Day Challenge…read more I'm not a yelper that usually leave a negative review unless it's really terrible and a 1 star but Lucille's not just myself was dissatisfied it was my whole entire family. They all decided that we're taking Lucille's out of our family dinner list. We usually frequent Lucille's since my son loves bbq ribs and we'd come here for a celebration. Like for this Tuesday evening we came to celebrate my bro in law n my son's bday. Duo celebration. If you look at my review from 4 years ago, 5 stars and i haven't updated since because it's usually been pretty good each time returning that there was no need to update it. But this experience we had this past week was really bad that we've decided that we likely will be stop coming to our local Lucille's. Read other reviews on here that aren't left a while back and looks like they've also mention how Lucille's quality along as service has gone down tremendously a lot. When we were seated, we didn't get any assistance from a server til 10 mins plus. We had to ask the associate that was wiping down tables if he was covering our area to get some assistance. He informed us that our server should be right over. Our fountain drinks that we ordered Sprite, Dr Pepper and sweet tea tasted off. There was barely any carbonation nor did the sweet tea had any sweetening to the tea we loved here. We informed our server and she told the manager gal. The manager came and spoke to us 5 mins later and confirmed to us she noticed the fountain drinks were off and was having an associate replace the fountain drinks machine but meanwhile offered if we can get another drink in the time being without no charge so we may enjoy something with our meals. We took the offer n got a strawberry lemonade along w a peach lemonade also while waiting for the replacement soda. My kids weren't too much of a fan of lemonade but tried their best to enjoy the lemonade. About 20 mins to half n hour later. The manager did see us and came back to ask how our replacement soda tasted and we informed her we never got our replacement soda. She let an associate know and we finally got our replacement soda. But by then, we were about done w our meals and was pretty full. Ask an associate that is now no longer our original server but a server that was just bringing our food and drinks to us. A to go cup so we can just take our replacement soda to go. We never got out to go cup. Either they were short staffed that evening or associates just wasn't happy being there. Because when we asked for Togo containers too. It took some time to get it. Please Lucille's management, if you see this review. Look into your staffs. The restaurant is clean it's just there are some etiquettes that need to be going over. A BIG HUGE READ FLAG. Why would an associate be SWEEPING RIGHT NEXT TO A TABLE THAT IS CURRENTLY TRYING TO ENJOY THEIR DINNER. Where do you think sweeping the floor. The dust particles up in the air would go to. It'll be flying around where we are digesting our food. This is something no one would enjoy seeing when eating. Not sure if the associate didn't have a clue regards to this. ITS POOR HYGIENE for a restaurant industry. I was feeling under the weather along there was no upper management nor much associate to even let them know what we were dealing with. With all of the ordeal and mishap. If you look at my review b4 this. We've got a complimentary bday celebration dessert but this time. We just wanted to be done. Didn't even bother doing our annual bday celebration there that my son enjoys with his uncle for their bday celebration tradition. We still left a 16% tip because we know how things are with possibly server just being low staffed. Because we saw our original server Alyssa at the end b4 leaving the restaurant. She was able to give us a set of Togo boxes. Told us she apologized she couldn't continue serving us because she had a bigger party of 15 to attend to. That would've been great to know b4 she left our table to serve the other table so we weren't turning our head constantly trying to find any service from anyone. We just decided to pay on the tablet. By than didn't want to deal with anyone and wanted to leave asap. Since that was the only service that can help us pay for our bill. Please LUCILLES...DO BETTER!
