Southern Cuisine with Historical Legacy and Significance.

History

Established in 2012.

Lucille's is a tribute to a legacy of culinary excellence started almost a century ago. In 2011, brothers Ben and Chris Williams found this old house nestled in the heart of Houston's Museum District. The pair thought it was the perfect site to pick up and continue the culinary tradition began by their Great-Grandmother Lucille B. Smith. Today they continue to pay homage to her by replicating some of her most famous recipes while embellishing others to create innovative takes on southern food classics. Lucille's is truly a historical dining experience!

Turns out she was in front of a restaurant that allowed you to choose your own fish, and the owner's mother-in-law (the sweet lady suffering outside in the cold rain) would grill it for you. Chris chose a flounder,
