"The service was excellent; I couldn't have asked for better. Unfortunately, the food was a letdown. It pains me to say it, but I have to be honest. I ordered the half chicken, and while I expect smoked chicken to have a pink hue, mine was undercooked, even though I prefer my chicken to be well-cooked. You might enjoy it cooked that way, though. My niece ordered the Monte Cristo, which had a fried chicken-style coating instead of the traditional egg, and it ended up tasting more like fried chicken. She found it inedible. I sampled it too, and it was quite peculiar. However, the other diners seemed to enjoy their ribs and fried chicken. The portions were large but appeared disappointingly empty on the plates. I hadn't visited since before the pandemic, and I remember it differently. Like many establishments, it seems the pandemic may have impacted Lucille's negatively. I don’t want to deter anyone from trying it, but for my next BBQ outing, I think I’ll choose somewhere else."
