The sampler appetizer was greasy and notso special... The tri-tip was really REALLY good, and the drinks were poured well... They have a few options for BBQ sauce, and if I was a big fan of BBQ, I would probably rate this place a 5... But I'm not and because of that I can take it or leave it. My friends who really dig BBQ though think Lucilles is the Bee's Knees.
