Third time is a charm. I have gone to Lucille now on three occasions. Number 1 was the opening night. I called and they told me no wait! I rushed up to the capital and then they told me an hour and a half wait. We got a drink and bounced. The drink was yummy but the service was slooow. The basement has a cool old bank vault but is deafeningly loud.
Second time. Popped in on a Friday night. 30 min wait for a table unless I wanted communal seating. Since I don't play well with others, we went across the street to tipsy.
The third time we went for lunch and got right in. They have a few lunch specials where you can choose between cheese or fancy pizzas. We ordered the chips with vinegar. They were light and crispy but needed a dipping sauce. Good thing we ordered buffalo wings with blue cheese for dipping. The wings were crispy and flavorful. Finally we ordered a pizza with basil and mozzarella. I was pretty disappointed in the pizza. Parts of the crust were burnt. There was minimal basil. It was just okay. Our 11 inch pizza was $13. Pretty steep for what was on it, in my opinion. The best thing I ate was the pizza cookie for dessert.
My advice: go for drinks and the pizza cookie and get dinner somewhere better.
