Lockhart Smokehouse - Arlington

Perfect bar/restaurant for food and drinks before a game or event. It's located right when you walk inside the east side of Texas Live.

If there was a reward for worst bbq in Tx, they’d win something at least. I imagine the brisket is what cat food tastes like.

Always consistent with flavors and quality 👌 😋 😉 👏 Great service very friendly and clean.

Place had some delicious brisket. It practically melted in my mouth. The ribs were alright and had a nice smoky taste/ a little spiciness to it. The mac& cheese was creamy like I love it. However, I was a little turned off the pickles and other items in the jars. They were left open and unattended with flies circling over it. They eventually changed everything out but left it the same like the last batch.

Came here for food during a Ranger vs Dodger game so maybe they weren't at their best due to the amount of people ordering.

However, the chicken was very dry and no flavor.
The worst was the sausage, it had no snap when you bite into it and it just disintegrated in your mouth which is very off.
The only thing good was the brisket, it was tender and smooth so A+ and highly recommend but that's about it.

Food was over cooked at this location and you pay a premium for being at the ballpark.

Food is great—service is even better. Kristin and Todd are the best in the business! Go check them out during the next Rangers game!

Incredibly delis ious bbq and sauce. I particularly enjoyed the ribs. My family loved it as well.

Let’s just say, you’d enjoy a McRib more than this place.

All of the meat was tough. Brisket/Turkey/pork Ribs
Bread hard /stale
Sides ok.

We’re customers no need to talk to the Manager. But it sounds like a good idea , of what should be done as a Business Owner. In fact an unannounced visit might help.

If you love bbq, don’t eat here. It was pricey and not tasty. Don’t mind paying for good food, but hate over paying for bad food. $140 in food just in the trash. I guess it’s more for the bar food crowd and not really a bbq lover. Definitely kicked myself for choosing this place out of all the others at Texas Live 😭

Brisket was dry. Ribs were better. Lots of the food seemed like it sat for a while. Many of the sides were disappointing. For the price, it’s not worth it.

Honestly just really poor BBQ. The peach cobble isn't good either. Really disappointed in the brisket too. It's going to get business because of the location but I've eaten here twice and it's been the same.

Good customer service. The food was delicious.

I had lunch at this place today, and I noticed a few things that could use some improvement. For starters, there wasn't a clear indication of where to place your order, and it felt a bit confusing since there weren't any servers around to guide you. If you're visiting for the first time, you might miss the ordering spot up front, which isn't very convenient. I think customer service could be better, too. Perhaps things would be different if we tried coming at another time, but I wouldn't recommend lunchtime on a Friday here. Also, they don’t provide trays, so you end up balancing your food in your arms, which can be a bit tricky!

Great food and polite staff. Location is great but definitely a modern, entertainment district- vibe; not a country BBQ vibe. We come here before most Rnagers or Cowboys games.
