Good overall experience with best fried okra! Bbq brisket was tender but lacked some flavor, chopped pork sandwich was tasty. Loved the sweet sauce!

We got our dinner tonight and pickup was smooth, the food was hot and delicious, and the pearl continues to be the best item on the menu.

I wasn't impressed with the food. It didn't have that smoky taste most barbecue places have.

My boyfriend and I stopped into Rocklands on a whim. We’ve both been living in Alexandria for awhile and I had never heard of it. I was pleasantly surprised. A gem in the cut, if you will. The staff was the best and definitely made the experience worth while – shout out to Julian. We got the food to go. It was wonderful and the sauces were amazing. Will definitely be visiting in the summertime to take advantage of the outside seating. Here’s a pic of the everyday specials in case you need it :)

Have had many entries and all good. But most of all, don’t generally think of going to a bbq place for a healthy meal, but Rocklands makes a great grilled chicken salad. Hits all the right tastes and is very satisfying (especially with some pickled onion added at the self serve bar)!

Rocklands rocks in every sense of the word! Not only is the food undeniably tasty, but the way they pack to-go orders is a masterclass in efficiency. Everything is neatly packed, secure, and ready to roll — no spills, no mess, just pure BBQ bliss.
Their seasonal specials keep things fresh and exciting, so there’s always something new to sink your teeth into. The Alexandria location is perfectly situated for us, and every visit feels like a homecoming. The staff makes you feel genuinely welcome, like you’re part of the family. If you’re looking for BBQ that rocks your world, this is it. Flavor, service, and experience — Rocklands has it all on lock!
