Free 'Sips & Biscuits' At Lucille's Smokehouse BBQ In South Bay
The new veranda-inspired, al fresco dining includes a complimentary "Southern charm" lure for diners at Lucille's Smokehouse Bar-B-Que.
TORRANCE, CA — Among area restaurants expanding open-air dining during this summer's coronavirus pandemic is Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que in Torrance, which has transformed its outdoor space into a veranda-inspired dining experience — adding to its Southern-style welcome with a "Sweet Sips & Biscuits" freebie.
Patrons can enjoy a complimentary glass of either iced tea or Lucille's Original Sidewalk Lemonade, plus a basket of freshly-baked biscuits and apple butter.
“This summer is unlike anything we’ve ever seen, and our new patios offer a relaxed and comfortable space to enjoy a delicious meal,” said Brad Hofman, president of the family-owned barbeque chain. “Starting with a complimentary glass of iced tea or lemonade and our house-made biscuits is our way of saying welcome.”

Lucille’s Southern-inspired menu draws influence from southern and Cajun cuisine with a focus on such meats as ribs, brisket, tri-tip and chicken, smoked and served with a variety of authentic barbeque sauces from different regions.
