I was really happy they gave me onions and pickles, because that's a TX bbq must have!! The meat was all fantastic, and I LOVED the sauce. Not sweet, with plenty of spice. Perfect. I'm in the beef industry, so I know beef. This was great. The cole slaw was perfectly tangy, cabbage was fresh. And again, not sweet. I don't like sweet slaw. Potato salad was SO unique! Never had anything like it and I LOVED it!! Super friendly couple owns it, shop local!!! We will definitely be back in our next trip through.

My wife and I came to Massey's BBQ for the first time while we were visiting Glen Rose for a…read moreweekend getaway. This restaurant has wonderful space--they have indoor seating and then a separate, HUGE pavilion. We opted for the pavilion because it is dog-friendly. It was perfect--multiple TVs, long bench-style tables for parties of all sizes, a stage for live music, a small bar area, and outside of it, pickleball courts! To eat, I ordered some "Mozzarella Cheese sticks," a "Brisket Sandwich," and a side of "Mac and Cheese." The cheese sticks came out fresh with cheese melted and dangling with every bite as it should. The brisket in the sandwich was moist and tender and the Mac and cheese was also very flavorful and delicious. I topped it off with some sweet tea. The cherry on top for us was the wonderful customer service--a manager/owner came out and spoke with us, asked where we were from and thanked us for coming by. Great hospitality. We had an amazing experience here and would recommend Massey's to anyone!! Can't wait to come back whenever we're in town.

Live music and BBQ, does it get any better? My wife and I were in Glen Rose for a weekend getaway…read more The hotel we stayed in recommended Massey's and had their live music schedule posted in the lobby. We love live music. We really enjoy good BBQ. We were not disappointed! Massey's is located on the highway between Glen Rose and Granbury, adjacent to the golf course. The building is decorated with pages that kids colored. There's an arcade. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The live music takes place in the outdoor seating area. I ordered the Massey Mess with pulled pork. It's a frito pie with delicious BBQ. The serving is massive. My wife had the loaded baked potato with brisket. She couldn't finish hers either. Both dishes were delicious. The meat was tender and full of flavor. All the ingredients were fresh. The service just couldn't be beat, beginning with the owner. Todd Massey himself greeted us as we came in and gave us a warm welcome. He answered all our questions about the menu. How often does THAT happen? The serving staff is sweet, friendly, and attentive. We never had to wait. They brought our food to us and checked on us often. Free refills on drinks. The music venue is very family friendly and roomy. There are fans on the perimeter and ceiling fans to keep everyone comfortable. The lighting was great and the sound of the band was too. There are ample clean bathtrooms. We sat there on a Saturday evening eating delicous BBQ and listening to good music. There were kids playing in the grassy area behind the pavillion. Couples got up and danced to their favorite songs. There was a nice breeze blowing. In the distance you can see the golf course. Folks, it just doesn't get much better than this. Mr. Massey even made sure we had a good time and thanked us for coming as we left.

I can't really tell you why, but they have dropped a notch for me. The pork chop was tender and moist, but it just didn't have the flavor I expected. The jalapeño sausage is not quite as good a Rudy's. The sticker shock on the price may have been a factor in my enjoyment. Service was excellent. I'll be back at some point, but I won't crave it like I always have.

I hope he doesn't bite me for bringing this to him. The green beans were so salty it was more like salt with some green beans on top. Mashed potatoes were ok but not a lot of flavor. My wife wanted chicken piccata until the waitress told her it was served on rice and came with green beans and mashed potatoes. She ordered the ribeye. She probably would have been happier with the chicken piccata on rice with salty green beans. I'm gonna tell our dog the ribeye in the doggie bag is from her so he won't bite me. Their appetizers were pretty good. Onion rings were gigantic but overcooked. The calamari was good. I wish I could tell you about the shrimp but they never showed up even though they were part of our 4 course dinner for two. It was a 3 course dinner for two. A lady at our table got bread pudding for dessert and wanted to take some home. She asked our waitress if she could get some extra sauce. You would have thought she asked for a million dollars. The waitress said she wasn't sure the "chef" would let her have it. Our waitress wasn't very good. She was nice but acted like she was new and didn't know what to do. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

The owner came right up to the window, talked us through what they had and told us about the day's special. Just good old-fashioned hospitality. We had the pulled pork and brisket sandwiches, and both were delicious. And whoever decided to toast those buns knew what they were doing - that little extra touch made a good sandwich even better. The place is simple, no-frills and gets right down to business: good BBQ, friendly folks and quick service. Exactly the kind of hometown spot you hope to stumble across in a Texas town.

You'd have to try real hard to put up a more un-appealing storefront and ordering station than those at Young's BBQ. Crude set-up, lackluster atmosphere with sloppy hand scribbled notes taped or thumbtacked to most of the walls, cheap paper plates, all plastic eating utensils -- just a sad way to see a restaurant being run. A smart investor would build a clean, pleasant, well-run barbecue restaurant in Lampasas... right next door. I had the pork ribs, cold and disappointing. The pinto beans were tasty but room temperature. "Would you like something to drink? Get it yourself!" And half of the drink selections were out of order with handwritten notes stuck to the dispensers. Our order was 2 pork ribs for me and tea to drink; a chopped sandwich and tea for my lunchtime companion... nearly $35 Never, ever again. By the way, the kitchen lady came out wearing a gray tee-shirt with a word across the front -- It said, "BULLS***!" I had to wholeheartedly agree. But that's about all they got right.

My son ordered walking nachos, and my husband ordered a "Junior Plate". I ordered brisket and traditional potato salad in my meat bowl The brisket was 6 ounces, chopped, and above average. It was very moist with decent seasoning, but very little smoke flavor. The potato salad was excellent. The Junior Plate came with 2 mini pork ribs, 1 slice of brisket, and a medium chunk of sausage. My husband chose beans as his side and said he would go back for the beans! The sausage was nothing special. The Waliking Nachos were your choice of Fritos or Doritos topped with 3 ounces or so of chopped brisket and #5 yellow Crayola. The sauce is VINEGAR BASED. Not bad, but taste it first. All in all, a grade of 75.
