Nourriture fraîche est bonne serveuse agréable & à l'écoute.
Par contre la politesse pour l'hôtesse serait à revoir… elle nous tournait le dos quand on lui parlait incapable de s'exprimer clairement ni de nous regarder. très déçu de l'accueil mais le reste était parfait !

We went there a few weeks ago & the quality of the food was great. We went back this week, & the quality had noticeably declined compared to our first visit. There's a clear lack of consistency. Also, the $1 oysters aren't worth the dollar. Not sure we'll give it another try.
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre expérience hier soir! Le filet mignon était exquis, la guédille absolument délicieuse, les calmars bien préparés & le tartare de saumon avait une saveur très agréable. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & conviviale. Mention spéciale à notre serveuse, qui a été exceptionnelle - elle gagnerait à se présenter! En revanche, un petit effort du côté de l'hôtesse améliorerait l'accueil & le service à la clientèle.
J'ai vécut un excellent service au Lucilles Montréal, ambiance vraiment agréable. Nous sommes allées pendant la saison des Canadiens, un temps potentiellement occupé, mais tout de même notre serveuse Catherine nous a donné un service complet & est venu s'assurer qu'on ne manque de rien, je recommande vivement.

This was my first time eating at Lucille's. The atmosphere is okay. Nice, but basic. The presentation of the food was quite lovely. I'm kind of mad I forgot to take a photo. I wish the server was a little bit more detailed oriented about my dish, she failed to mention that it was lettuce wraps, with my tartare. Because I would have chosen the fries instead of the sides salad. My tartare dish had nice bold flavor, which I particularly like. It's a 20 minute walk from our house. So I'll definitely go back, to try something else.
I was there with a couple friends & we had their NY strip steak & it was cooked to perfection. Service was good, they were quick. It was our first time but not our last
Nous avons adoré notre repas. Cuisine de style bistro. J'ai pris le plat de demi pieuvre. Elle était accompagnée d'une salade grecque & d'une vinaigrette crémeuse qui l'accompagnait parfaitement. Ma femme a pris le trio de tartare & elle a beaucoup aimé. Bien entendu, les huîtres en entrée sont un incontournable, surtout pour le prix de 1$/huître.
Easy 5 stars all around. Went as group of 6. Waitress was always available & kind. All rest of staff were very nice. The food was honestly fantastic. Sweet potato fries are crazy, the steaks were perfect. The oysters were great. Even the little house salad was so good. We were all so pleasantly surprised on how great it was & already planning future birthdays there. You really can't go wrong!

Great food, although choices in fish are limited. A bit overpriced. Fries are some of the best in town! Would love them to have more draft /craft beer (took one star off for that). A bit dark but that's up to personal preference
I have eaten thousands of steaks, but the ribeye here was on of the very best. Good food, good service; although a little cramped, with people squeezing past each other. But those thin paper napkins? Really? Such a pity.
Je suis allée manger des huîtres à ce resto avant un concert. Délicieux repas avec de bons cocktails, belle ambiance, mais avant tout, un excellent service de Thomas👌
Je vais revenir!

I personally preferred the Laval place. I think that this one is so small. I was not amazed by the fish taco that I took as an appetizer but overall it was not bad. They changed the salmon tartare presentation it used to be with salad & rice crunch now it changed. I prefer take it with handmaid tortilla chips instead of the plantain chip just an FYI
Not the first & definitely not the last time at Lucille's monkland location.
The First time I ordered beef capacio, it was really good ! Super fresh beef
Then we had a tartare trio, I found it was ok. But the grilled octopus with salad, it is really good! It doesn't cooked too dry. It is crunchy with cucumber & tomato. The sauce is good too.
Not to mention the $1 oysters to start with!
The service was good, & the food came out fast. I highly recommend it!
& if it was your first time, definitely the monkland location is the BEST
I had an amazing dinner experience here! We really enjoyed the oysters & the burrata. The sangria & atmosphere were decent, but the real star of the show was the Octopus salad-absolutely delicious! I can't wait to come back & try more of the seafood.
I loved our visit to Lucille's. We were a party of 6 & everyone seemed to love their food. Service can be a bit slow, but the waitress we had was friendly & was able to answer any questions we had about the food.
We had the seafood tower, which is really good, but somewhat expensive for you you get. Don't know if I would get it again
I had the fish tacos, which were very tasty, & my wife had the calamari, which also tasted great, but I wish the portion size was a bit bigger.
My friend & I couldn't decide between the lobster rolls & steak, so we ended up ordering both the lobster rolls & the porterhouse for 2. The porterhouse was the best steak I have eaten at any restaurant & the lobster roll was also great.
All in all, it's a very good restaurant, & we'll 100% be going back.
