New American, Steakhouse

Fine Dining

Part of 101 Hospitality

Lucille’s Modern Chophouse is Chef Matt Baker’s contemporary reimagining of the classic American steakhouse—elevated, ingredient-driven, and unashamedly indulgent. It blends mid-century charm with modern technique, honoring the spirit of Lucille Ball and the Rat Pack era while delivering the polish and precision of a Michelin-caliber kitchen.

This is not a nostalgia act. Lucille’s is built for today’s diner: lighter options, global influences, luxury ingredients treated with restraint, and a sharp focus on craft and execution. Lucille’s Modern Chophouse is meant to feel both timeless and fresh. It’s a restaurant that respects the steakhouse tradition but updates it with global seasoning and refined technique.

Chef Matt Baker’s goal here is simple: take everything people love about classic steakhouses and rebuild it with precision, personality, and a modern palate.

Lucille’s is indulgent, but never heavy—luxurious, but not fussy. It’s a chophouse for 2025 and beyond.
