Melissa Behring (9/3/2010 4:25 PM) - Yum! Thanks for the great lunch today!
Lockhart's BBQ (9/3/2010 9:21 PM) - Come check out Lockhart's BBQ this weekend while you are enjoying Arts, Beats & Eats in downtown Royal Oak! Just follow the smell of great BBQ!
Lisa Potter (9/2/2010 7:44 PM) - DELICIOUS enough for vegetarians, too!
Lockhart's BBQ (9/2/2010 10:34 PM) - Have you tried our burnt ends yet? Nothing like them in Michigan!
Gary Marshall (9/1/2010 9:17 PM) - Lockhart's BBQ was pretty tasty. Great local beer selection too! I suspect we shall return soon.
Janie Montgomery (9/1/2010 7:58 PM) - Lockhart's Chef Danny Montgomery teaching his grand daughters how to cook REAL BBQ like he did back in Tennessee!
Janie Montgomery (9/1/2010 7:46 PM) - I like lockharts ribs but most of all I really like hearing how the staff is like a family:) my husband is one of the cooks and we are happy to be here is Michigan. thx Lockharts
J.D. Otto (9/1/2010 12:43 AM) - Had the beef ribs plate tonight with the jalapeño beans and sweet potato fries. The fries were a little salty to me (I normally have a low sodium diet), but the beans and ribs were incredible. The draft beer selection was quite impressive as well. Will definitely be back!
MotorCity Monk (9/1/2010 9:37 AM) - Might check you out tonight - is there a bar with tv to watch Tigers game while I'm eating some ribs?
Matthew Zajechowski (8/31/2010 3:34 PM) - Does lockharts have happy hour
Lockhart's BBQ (9/2/2010 1:59 AM) - A lot of people have been asking why we put a piece of white bread on our BBQ Plates. It is a Texas tradition. All plates are served with pickles, onions and a slice of white bread. This is for two reasons:
Lockhart's BBQ (8/31/2010 9:50 PM) - Lockhart's BBQ is great for takeout! We have two 10 minute parking spots next to our building for easy pickup! Just call us at (248) 584-4BBQ and order some great BBQ! We will have it ready for you when you arrive!
Scott Butler (8/30/2010 10:40 PM) - Had a very good meal, especially the burnt ends!
Andy Lintner (8/30/2010 8:09 PM) - Just had an awesome dinner. The pulled pork was perfect, the beer was great, and Stephanie J took good care of us. My only suggestion would be to press out the slaw a bit before putting it on the sandwich -- the bun was falling apart in my hand (a texas toast bun would be great too). Other than that, everything was wonderful. Glad to have some good BBQ in Royal Oak!
Chris Withers (8/30/2010 11:10 PM) - please get a thicker sauce thanks foods great
Lockhart's BBQ (9/2/2010 10:38 PM) - Lockhart's BBQ is very proud of our Michigan Craft Beer lineup!
Paul Mackiewicz (8/29/2010 8:32 PM) - We had lunch there on Saturday, the burnt ends, pulled pork, and sides were awesome...... but the pork ribs seemed a bit rushed and the Brisket was a bit dry. Overall a great opening weekend! We will be back!
Rob Craig (8/29/2010 3:31 PM) - Had lunch there today... ordered the Lockhart's Special though they were out of pork ribs. The pulled pork and sausage were excellent, but the brisket and beef ribs were too dry. The sides were very tasty and the service was unusually good, especially for a grand opening. Definitely willing to come back and try it again.
David Moss (8/29/2010 3:27 PM) - Thinking BBQ? Think Lockhart's http://goo.gl/a6EZ
Matt Miller (8/29/2010 9:51 AM) - One of the best restaurants in Royal Oak... Definitely better than that Gordon Food Service crap they serve at every other restaurant down there. Keep up the good work
Tom Lewis (8/29/2010 7:40 AM) - I went for lunch on Friday with 10 people. Everyone agreed that the beer selection, Q, and service were great. The fried okra side rocked. Y'all are a great addition to Royal Oak.
Adam Thayer (8/28/2010 11:13 PM) - Great patio, great food, great beer. C'mon, the Poet on tap?? What's better than that? And I didn't have to wait 2 hours for a table like I have every time I've been to Slows. I also didn't have to worry about my car while I was there and could walk around town after dinner. If people really enjoy Slows that much better, have at it. But I'd bet they couldn't tell the difference in a blind taste test. I've had dried out ribs and fatty brisket at Slows, but they were the best we had. Now we've got another great BBQ option.
Edith Marie Hansinger (8/30/2010 6:49 PM) - would of loved to of came, but worked a double, we WILL be there Tuesday for dinner, mouth WATERING for some of Bubba's grub!!!
Marla Rudas (8/28/2010 10:05 PM) - Are you going to have live music? We will be there to try the food (Beef ribs for me) soon!
Diane Morelli Pauck (8/28/2010 9:11 PM) - Had a great meal. The ribs were fantastic, service was great...can't wait to go back and try something else......
Lockhart's BBQ (8/29/2010 11:15 PM) - Hope everyone is coming out to try some Real BBQ tonight!
Bedria Purifoy (8/27/2010 9:44 PM) - Great food and service! Chicken smoked to perfection! I will definitely be back!
Janice Dodson (8/27/2010 9:41 PM) - Can hardly wait to try the ribs, brisket, etc. Glad we're finally getting good BBQ in Royal Oak
David Moss (8/27/2010 9:31 PM) - Awesome dinner tonight! Ribs, brisket, sausage, etc. Can't wait to come back....
Sarah Topper Gutman (8/27/2010 7:48 PM) - Great dinner tonight! So glad to finally have an AWESOME bbq place in the area. Everything we had was amazing (burnt ends, pulled pork, ribs...etc etc). We will definetly be back...SOON!
Jim W (8/27/2010 6:39 PM) - Went to Lockharts this afternoon. I had the \Burnt Tips.\ They were very good. I liked the Lockhart's BBQ sauce the best with the \fire\ one second. I would like them to be a little thicker.
Missed Rick who had been there earlier. I will be back. Jim
Lockhart's BBQ (8/28/2010 10:32 AM) - Our goal is to be the best BBQ in Michigan! No gas-gas fired, electric-cooking, boiled-and-grilled imitations! Just great meat smoked slow over oak and hickory. Can't find it anywhere else in MI! Come and get it.
Tiffany Gelle (8/27/2010 11:22 AM) - The Burnt Ends are to die for! Yummy!
Casey Hurbis (8/27/2010 10:20 AM) - Lived in Texas and loved the BBQ @ Lockhart's and other infamous BBQ joints across all the small towns, will be into your place next week to try it out!!

Lockhart's BBQ (8/27/2010 6:16 PM) - Just want to say that after tonight I know we have the best staff at any BBQ place on the planet!! And thanks to everyone who showed up for our opening night! Thanks everyone!!!
Scott Stacy (8/26/2010 9:44 PM) - Bill, Patrick, and Bubba - congrads! I appreciate the concern of the managers walking around asking us about the food. The service was very friendly - but the most important part - the 'Q was awesome! The pulled pork brought me back to Memphis. My boy (18-months) devoured bites of burnt ends, pulled pork, and brisket.
Harold Williams (8/26/2010 5:56 PM) - Happy Opening!
Marcus Adams (8/26/2010 6:57 PM) - Drew, my son has a severe peanut allergy! Is there any product at your BBQ joint that might cause him a problem? I would like to bring him there!
Kristen Ghersi (8/26/2010 2:49 PM) - HAPPY OPENING DAY :) I'm bummed I can't be there but will visit as soon as I'm back in Detroit!
Lockhart's BBQ (8/26/2010 6:32 PM) - Smoked turkey leg! Ya know, for kids!
