A classic Korean BBQ joint. No frills just all you can handle at this delicious chain in LA county. Make sure you come at an appropriate time because you will have to wait during peak hours. You know the place is legit when the floor is slippery as hell, you learn that from experience. Dos beers up.

The BBQ was the best! Its one of my favorite Korean BBQ. The meat was great quality and taste so delicious. Everything was rich in flavors. They have great options of food. The menu was overwhelming. The service was good and friendly staff.

The food was great, as was the service. The entire restaurant looks modern and stylish. I left there very full and content. I will come back again.

LUCILLE'S SMOKEHOUSE BAR-B-QUE REVIEWS

Yesterday was my Niece's Birthday.!!! She had a great time. We all had a great time. Our server Moustafa , Almost like Mufasa ....... LOL. Was so entertaining & fun. Even his Manager bragged about him. Works on Sat & Sundays for sure. The Appetizers were good spinach dip and chips. Then the fam had the Nachos. My brother loved the brisket on the Nachos. (Definitely try it) when your a pescatarian i don't touch the stuff! Lol but the tray was emptied with 3 adults sharing it. A big portion. The Apple buter & biscuits amazing. I tried to eat 2 biscuits. Well it didn't happen, BUT I TRIED. Apple butter !!! For my Drink I had the Strawberry lemonade with alcohol in it. With sugar around the rim. It was sweet. I couldn't taste the alcohol but I could feel it! I also had the grilled salmon with sides & it was good I put some original BBQ sauce on it and it was even more tastier. I even got a Togo bottle. Look if you've never been here try it. Having a fun and playful server like Moustafa will make your experience even better.

Came on a Saturday for BBQ chicken, ribs, sausage and pulled pork. Greeted immediately by friendly staff, amicable host. Portions and quality were good for the price. The biscuit bread served as complementary appetizer are good, soft and warm. All meat were tender and moist, great overall. BBQ beans were good. Cl an establishment. Plenty of parking in the mall parking garages.

Long time ago, we always ordered Baby Back Ribs . But this time, we tried their BBQ Beef Ribs for Two. It comes with 3 sides of our choice. The ribs, the sides, and BBQ sauces, everything was good !

BAEKJEONG KOREAN TORRANCE REVIEWS

Jay and JP! From the moment we sat down, they made us feel like VIPs. Jay was super attentive and had the best menu recommendations, while JP kept everything running smoothly with perfect timing and a great attitude.

Andrew was awesome! He helped us through our first experience at a Korean Barbecue. We would give him 10 stars if we could. Food was amazing too.

Ashlynn was very kind and polite. She was extremely helpful getting us anything we asked for.
