i was first introduced to lucilles in LA - but was pleasantly surprised when it found its way to las vegas.
i wont lie, ive sampled bbq from TX to TN to MS to SC to MO and back again. but the ribs at lucilles are pretty dang good. just recently a friend and i both ordered a full slab each, and we tried to have a rib eating contest amongst ourselves. the ribs were so good, that he and i both were winners regardless... but the portions were so huge - both he and i nearly died / overdosed on baby back goodness.
they have a variety of their house blend bbq sauces on the table for you to slather on your bbq - my favorite being the spicy one.
on a different occasion, ive had their mardi gras chicken dish - outstanding cajun flavors: chicken, shrimp, andoille sasuage and veggies over rice... ive also had their mixed meat plate: with ribs and hot link - i was surprised you get the whole hot link, uncut - extra bonus on how much meal you get for your money -
in my opinion, this probably goes down as the best bbq in vegas.
not quite 5 stars, as i thought the service was trying to keep up instead of being on point... in their defense it is busy there, but for all 5 stars - this would have to be exceptional at all levels... service was just ok.
