"H Street" Blueberry French Toast Casserole
Sydney T.

Wonderful service, delicious food! Even with a long line out the door, we found seating just fine and we were served our food promptly. Everything was super fresh and full of flavor, I loved the blueberry french toast casserole. It is flakey and crispy on top with a rich dense base, perfectly balanced textures. We saw people ordering this giant pancake and had to try it as well. It has a candy-like flavor to it like I've never had before, it is SO good! Thank you all so much for such friendly service! You all were working so hard in a rush and handled everything so well.

Pancake
Yessica C.

This is such a cute spot! I ordered a breakfast sandwich and the pancake. They only have the pancake on Friday's and Saturday's so we made sure to be there early on Saturday. I don't usually love pancakes but my gosh this was the best pancake I've had in a long time. It was soft and not dry at all. The maple butter was so indulgent and comforting. The breakfast sandwich was good as well but would like to try something different next time. The only part that's gives me a little anxiety is that you order first then find a table. Since it's very small, you may have to wait around to get a table. We had our dog with us so we waited outside until someone left. This type of system makes me nervous but that pancake was great so I'll be coming back for that.

Yummy drinks, nice staff and parking in front. Good pricing and fast service, would definitely recommend.

Came here for brunch today, and despite the place being packed with a line out the door, the experience was great from start to finish. We only waited about 10 minutes in line to order. Michelle at the register was fantastic--super approachable, patient, and welcoming while taking our order. Just a heads-up for anyone planning a visit: indoor seating is very limited, so if you plan on dining in, be prepared that seats fill up fast. We opted to take our order to go and waited outside in the shaded patio area. Our drinks and muffin came out fast (around 5-10 minutes), and our food took exactly 30 minutes. What really stood out while waiting was the customer service. The owner/manager went above and beyond, checking in on everyone waiting outside, keeping us updated on our orders, and genuinely thanking us for our patience. The food and drinks did not disappoint (it's a 15 min drive home, but our food was still warm): Mocha Hazelnut Iced Latte & Iced Matcha Latte: Both drinks were smooth, well-crafted, and delicious. Thee P&H: Incredibly flavorful and a standout item. South x Southwest (with added bacon): They were sold out of biscuits for the day, so we swapped for sourdough. It was still hearty and packed with flavor, but now we definitely have an excuse to come back early to try the biscuits. H Street Block (French Toast): Fresh, perfectly sweet, and topped with delicious blueberries. Pastry: The poppy seeds and blueberry muffin was satisfying and paired great with our drinks. Between Michelle's awesome service at the front, the attentive manager, and the quality of the food and coffee, Lucille is well worth the wait. We'll definitely be back!

The biscuit, the standard coffee and a chocolate chip cookie.

One of the best coffee's I have had in the area. The standard was perfect for the hot days, as an iced coffee. The biscuit was good as well, I substituted bacon in place of the sausage it was good. Place is a bit small and seating can be difficult.

First time trying Lucille, I absolutely loved the ambiance, service and the coffee was very good. Will be visiting again soon.

H Street Block
Ashley C.

Found this spot to stop for breakfast and it was a great find! We were immediately greeted by two friendly staff. They have yummy pastries on display but the breakfast menu has tons of savory options. We ordered H Street Block which is a blueberry french toast casserole. It was the perfect size. It looks small, but it was very filling and just enough to get my day started. It's a bit pricey for the size but since that was the portion I wanted, I wasn't too disappointed. One of the workers mentioned they do have kids menu options, but they didn't have the printed kids menus available, so if you don't see them, just ask when you are ordering. The Champions Breakfast platter was a great choice for our kids to share. It was one of the better fruit bowls I've seen, with a variety of fresh berries and oranges. The place is pretty small inside, but we were there on a Thursday morning so it was no issue finding a parking spot or a table to sit. I appreciate how kid friendly they are, even bringing kid size water cups with lids, and there are even some children's books on the shelf in the back. Such a cute little spot, I would have never known about it if I wasn't looking on Yelp for breakfast places in this area.

Benny on a Bun  Order this if you are staying there to eat it! Needs a knife and fork.
Nicolette S.

The service was great, I ordered online, walked in and my order was ready to go. It's usually so busy, I avoid it because I don't have the time to wait during a 30 minute break. I ordered a regular coffee which was so fresh and perfect. My food, I ordered the Benny on a Bun, that's the wrong sandwich for a on the go morning. I didn't think to order the hollandaise on the side so my bread was totally soggy. The bacon was extremely salty. I'm not sure what brand it was but it was not good to me. I couldn't pick it up to eat it because I was driving. It was already soggy and wet to begin with, not the restaurants fault but I would say I would not order that for a togo order. It was not easy to eat, very messy and again, I didn't care for the bacon.

My wife has been here several times because she works in Modesto and I work in Stockton. So when we had a chance to go together to eat lunch here, we took advantage of it. This place has a lot of personality and very good food. Love the menu options. Everybody was very friendly in the service was great. The ambience was fun and decorated cute. FYI, it is very popular. Seating inside and outside was tough to come by. We got lucky and found a spot inside, but I could see how getting this to go would be an option. I'll be back.

***Update*** Since I work as an Uber driver (one who attended culinary school) I always find myself eating in unfamiliar locales. Modesto is NOT close to home for me. After discovering Lucille several years ago, I will now willingly take rides far from home, although the fares sometimes dry up in the Central Valley. I have been to Lucille twice by myself. I brought my Godmother once. I recommend Lucille to everyone who I drive when they tell me that they live in or near Modesto. Today I brought my boyfriend and my dog, who lives in the Santa Cruz Mountains. It was Saturday, super crowded and my dog was being super reactive with another dog across the way. It was super embarrassing and, although I am sure that it stressed out the staff, they were calm, kind and attentive. I was stressed and shrill, my dog was being a grade-A A-hole. I'm sorry Lucille! The beet salad at this place features fresh mint and I always get it. The chocolate cookie with flaky malden salt is very yummy. Their house coffee is very high quality and doesn't taste gross and burned. I didn't love my soup today. The bar was set pretty high with the carrot soup I had another time. Honestly, it was a small detail and this place is so much better than 90% of restaurants. They sent me another chocolate cookie. That was never necessary. I love you Lucille! Thanks for the extra care and the extra cookie! You really deserve a larger building because you are awesome!

This morning, I stopped by Lucille's because I was wanting to try their pancake that they only have available on Fridays and Saturdays. The pancake is so delicious and huge! I ordered The Trusty Steed and a biscuit and I had blueberry lemonade, soda and ice water to drink. The food here is always good. The service is very friendly. I've always had a good experience here. 1218 H St, Modesto, CA 95354

Biscuit and fried eggs
Julia B.

I live in San Francisco, but I'm from the Central Valley, so I pass by Modesto every few months when visiting my family. My friend from Modesto told me about this spot, and I immediately wanted to try it. I actually planned my drive around this pit stop, which was just a short detour off the 99. I ordered a biscuit with fried eggs and dear Lord, that biscuit was amazing, and so was the jam! The fried eggs were cooked perfectly and especially delicious with the hot sauces they had to offer. My brother got an egg sandwich on a brioche bun and he still can't stop talking about how good it was. He was particularly impressed with the brioche bun. We also got the blueberry french toast to go, which I didn't anticipate traveling very well, but it did and holy shit, it was fan-freaking-tastic when I ate it that evening. I can't even fathom how incredible it must be if eaten fresh. This place was so cute inside and clearly had an intentional aesthetic direction. There was a cute outdoor seating area in the front where I could have my dog with me, which is a huge plus. The service was top-notch and the food was ready lickety-split. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and attentive. I HIGHLY recommend this spot!!!

Cortado
True 5 R.

[Lucille] -- [Modesto, CA] Final True 5 Rating: 3.76 /5 1. The Core Offering (Food/Product): 4 / 5 I got the cortado, and it was good; it was a little sour, might be a little under-extracted. But looking at the menu, there were some really nice options. 2. Execution & Consistency (Service): 4 / 5 The service was nice. i dd like how the service works. They give you a number and bring your order to you. 3. Environmental Design (Vibe): 3.3 / 5 I thought the vibe was nice, but it was busy when I got here. There was hardly a place to sit, and it was a little loud. which is actually great for the business! recomend to come when it's less busy if you're planning to do work. most likely early in the morning or at noon. 4. Attention to Detail (The Little Things): 4 / 5 One thing I really liked was how they brought a full glass of water with my drink. There was also music playing, which I did like. It was just a little louder, but a great playlist! The place seemed really clean as well. I also saw high chairs for babies, and I have not seen them in the other cafes yet, which I think is awesome. 5. Price-to-Value Ratio (Wallet Test): 3.5 / 5 I think the prices were pretty tipical. nothing crazy, i payed around $5 for the cortado. Not bad. The Breakdown: overall I think this was a good cafe. I did like the service and the place itself.

It was quiet on a Friday morning of a long holiday weekend, but I imagine this place gets busy. There's ample indoor seating (no outdoor seating that I saw). Fun fact: while enjoying my coffee, I looked up what "Con Azucar" means "with sugar." I mean, I loooove it. Self-admitted sweet tooth over here. I was greeted the second I walked in, which was a nice surprise since that doesn't happen at a lot of coffee shops. The menu has everything - lattes, frappes, refreshers, hot and cold drinks, plus a bunch of pastries. Apparently they also have giant conchas?! How did I miss that? Next time, for sure. I went with a Large Shaken Brown Sugar Espresso (4 shots), ready in less than 5 minutes. It was yums & sweet, just like the girl at the register promised. Hot take: it tastes exactly how Starbucks' version did when it first came out (before it went downhill). Con Azucar's is definitely better. I'll absolutely be back, with all their seasonal drinks, I can't wait to try more!

It wasn't overly sweet, more underwhelming. I would come back to try another drink just because I liked the ambiance and service so much.
