First time at Lucille's for my mother in laws 89th Birthday. The service was outstanding. Ali was super attentive always smiling & quick bringing our meals. The food was OK, the bavette for the steak/ frites could have been tastier, the "jus"was overly salty. The surf & turf is not your traditional piece of steak with a lobster tail. (There is a steak & lobster tail as a separate option) It was a lobster roll & a whole rack of ribs. The lobster roll bun was nicely toasted with good size pieces of lobster..it was missing a bit of flavor. The ribs were tender & juicy & slathered with a sweet/ slightly spicey sauce. The cedar plank maple salmon was perfectly prepared with a nice hint of maple flavor, so I'm told as my mother in law wouldn't share...lol After all it was her birthday diner celebration. We were so full we didn't order dessert, but Ali heard us talking & brought my M.I.L. a piece of cake with a candle. It was so light an delicious!. A++++ for service
I tend to usually have the Steak Frit (Bavette Steak) & dries & it is always very good. My wife tries different meals & she also always enjoys the food there. Atmosphere is always lively. Good service & nothing bad to say.
We sat at the bar (as we usually do). The barmaid took good care of us. However as soon as I finished my meal, they scooped in to remove my plate, & I was still chewing my last bite & my wife had not even finished yet. The dining experience was soured at that point. They should leave us alone for at least 5-10 minutes once we have finished our meal so that we could digest & consider dessert. The impression was they wanted top rush us out so they could go home (as there wasn't a lineup behind us). The food was average bar food & yet quite pricey. The ribs were lathered in BBQ sauce rendering the meant super sweet. We asked if we could order a side of Cole slaw & they said NO. It was only accompanied with a different meal & the manager said he needed to keep what he had in case it was ordered with the other meal. Seriously?
Horrible service & mediocre food. Ordered several dishes to share for the table. The first dish arrived, calamari which was actually delicious, but tiny, then we waited over 45 minutes for anything else to show up while we watched every other table around us get their food. Our waiter passed by our table table several times & never once acknowledged that we were sitting with an empty table. Then at the end it took another 30 minutes to get our bill. The lobster rolls, once they finally showed up were quite good, albeit way overpriced, the crab cakes & salmon tartare however were unappealing, no one in my party cared for them. The cheeseburgers were just ok, would not repeat, lacked seasoning. I've been to Lucille's many times on Monkland, this visit to Fairview was a huge disappointment, & way overpriced for what you get, both in quality & portion size. Stick to the steaks or ribs & you'll be fine.
Nous avons été déçus de notre première visite à ce restaurant. Nous avons commandé un repas de filet mignon & une assiette de deux queux de homard. Dans chaque bouchée de filet il y avait toujours un morceau dur impossible à mastiquer. Les queues de homard étaient tellement assaisonnées & salées qu'il ne restait aucun goût de homard. La table était trop petite & la salle était extrêmement bruyante. Après avoir donné nos commentaires au serveur on nous a offert les desserts. Une compensation partielle. Par contre le service était excellent
Great place with a great selection of delicious food. Their seafood towel was amazing & everything tasted very fresh. As a main course, I had their maple glazed salmon & it was one of the best I've ever had! The service was very friendly all night long & the atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely recommend & come back to this restaurant.
What a great restaurant. Fish tacos were delicious, roasted cauliflower was amazing, so much flavour. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone who loves fresh great quality. Will be returning.
Another great dinner at Lucille's. We always know we are in for a tasty meal & great service when dining here. Tonight was no exception & we were very fortunate to have Alek serving us! Thanks Alek for making our visit to Lucille's such a wonderful experience!

Ordered the Bass...was OK but seemed seasoned from one of those packs of seasonings you buy here & there. The bass skin was so full of scales, it was like I had fished it myself. Either they received fresh fish that the cook did not know how to prepare OR where ever they got it from did not know how to scale/prepare a fish to cook. Husband's steak was over seasoned but very well cooked. Was told that fries were fresh & made in house. I would love to be corrected for doubting this. Would I go back? Yes, if not but for the fresh oysters!
