My first time here and we went for breakfast. It was good but a little cold/room temperature. I'm sure the most was fresh but it was room temperature and the other ingredients were cold. If the food was warmer I'd give it 5 stars. There were no other customers since they had just opened. read more

Sooo....... Good!! Sliced brisket is so moist it just falls apart. Sides that we had were beans and bacon cheddar cheese potatoes, and those were very good as well. Walking in, everything looked clean, relatively new, nice large wooden tables, and the service was responsive and pleasant. Great spot for an easy bite read more

This restaurant is so clean. The service is excellent. The food was fabulous. The manager Daisy personally greeted us asked us how our food was. This was an amazing experience for my family. We really highly recommend the barbecue here. It's excellent. read more

I was really looking forward to trying Smoky Mo BBQ, but unfortunately it was a letdown. The portion sizes were shockingly small -- I've honestly seen Happy Meals with more food. For the price, I expected a lot more than a few bites of barbecue. The cheddar bacon potatoes were even worse. Instead of being thick and hearty, they were so runny they were more like potato soup with a little cheese and bacon thrown in. Overall, the food just did not match the price or the expectations. read more

Your typical Texan fast casual bbq joint. Nothing extraordinary to brag about, but a decent enough meal if you're starving. Prices and menu options are on par with all the other bbq places all over Texas, no surprises or standouts here. The two meat and Three meat plates are not a lot of food. Very little, in fact, comparatively to other such businesses. I was hungry an hour later. Meats were bland and mediocre. Pork loin was the better option, followed by ribs, followed by brisket. Sides were okay--it's difficult to screw up coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Creamed corn tasted like dessert--so sweet, I was wondering how much sugar was dumped into that. Staff are accommodating and service is quick. Not a place I'd return to. There are tons of similar restaurants that offer better food. read more

My husband and I ordered brisket sandwiches today and even though the staff was nice the food was terrible. The meat was dry, small portion and halfway through eating it saw a maggot in the meat! I will never eat here again. read more

Did management or something change at this location? We used to love it and tonight it was awful! Everything was super dried out, even the sides. The macaroni and cheese tasted like it was on a 3rd day of reheating. The pinto beans was a mushy pile with no liquid at all. My husband got lean brisket and it was dry and tough. The sausage was so dry it was awful! He said the potatoes in the potato salad were still raw and crunchy too. I was super shocked because this has been our go to place when we want bbq in town. So disappointing! read more

Got 1 lbs of brisket, 1/2 lbs of turkey and 1/2 lbs of sausage. The brisket and turkey were very good, smoky and flavorful. The sausage I did not really like. The skin was very tough and the sausage had just a peppery flavor. The service was fast and staff was friendly and courteous and smiling when interacting with us. Our three meats and a brisket baked potato came to just under $60 with no drinks or sides. Will have to try again in the near future and get a combo plate to try some sides. read more

The amount of food you get for the price is not worth it. Price is way too high!!!!!!!

We tried several kinds of barbecue. The chopped barbecue sandwich had a good flavor but was a bit greasy. The sides were good but small The staff is helpful. Nice indoor location. read more

Smokey MO's is GREAT BBQ! Pleasant atmosphere! Great service! Love their pecan pie!

I had the brisket, pork ribs, pinto beans and potatoes. The ribs were good, but not great. The brisket was great and so were the sides. However, the price was high and the portion amounts were very small. If you have money to spare, this is the place to eat. It your money is tight, this is not the place to go. read more

Delicious loved it the food was perfectly seasoned the staff was friendly , but most importantly the food was yummmy

The brisket was very dry, so dry I could not eat it. The burnt ends were tasty, but overcooked and also very dry. We spent $55 on a lunch and never plan to go back. Having arrived at 12:30, prime dining time, the meats should have been fresh. They offer no fries, and no okra if that matters to the customer. We were overcharged a bit and told the transaction was already in system. I felt a sense of graciousness could have offered a free cookie or dessert. Not. Service was quick. Tables were clean. Atmosphere pleasant. Salads fresh. Nobody came around to ask how our meals were. read more

Came here this morning to get breakfast tacos for the fam. I was really let down. The tortillas were cold, and the brisket and egg tacos were super sad. I can see why this place is not that busy on a Saturday morning. They really should have as many customers or more than Shipleys next door. The refried beans and cheese tacos were soaked in straight cooking grease. The only reason they get a one star today is their coffee is average and hot. The employees were not friendly at all. I'll continue to make my own breakfast. read more

Amazed to have BBQ this tasty in Kyle!! I ordered a 3 meat plate that came with two sides: lean brisket, jalapeño sausage, pork ribs, potato salad and pinto beans and HOLY MOLLY WAS IT GOOD!!

The restaurant is clean and offers outside patio seating! I can't believe I hadn't been here before! 3 Meat Plate read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - Lean Brisket Jalapeno Sausage Pork Ribs Pinto Beans Potato Salad Sweet Tea - Barbeque Near Me - Kyle, Texas

Update-still love the breakfast but not the best bbq. The service was great. Staff was very friendly and the restaurant was clean. The brisket & chopped bbq was good. The pork ribs tasted old and stale. I don't think I will try those again. The slaw and green beans were ok as well. I will stick with the breakfast or stick with the brisket. read more

It was okay. 3-star BBQ. I'd say this is about B- to C+ BBQ (IMO). I would still eat here and recommend this place, because it's got potential and some of the offerings were good. Ok, when it comes to BBQ, I have not found a place that has everything great. Basically what I experience is one place has great brisket, so-so ribs. Someone else has awesome ribs, okay brisket, respectable sausage. One place I know has awesome sides, and great pork belly, but so-so brisket (oversalted) and okay ribs. So the A+ Tier would be Franklin's BBQ. They have really good top notch brisket, and pork ribs are very good. Turkey is okay. Potato salad is too mustardy. Their homemade pies are superb. Another A+ Tier would be Louie Mueller in Taylor. A+ Beef Rib (the best), solid brisket, okay sausage (was dry), but awesome dipping sauce. And Interstellar - they have the best sides and awesome peached glazed pork belly. Best mac n cheese, best tomato salad, awesome jalapeno cole slaw, and I cannot get enough of those smoked scalloped potatoes. Salt Lick would be 2nd tier, on a good night they'd be B+. As for Smokey Mo's, what we got at our catering event was about B- results. The Brisket was really good, had great bark, but it was over salted. The sausage was sausage. It was probably the best meat. The Chicken was good, but over salted. Mac n Cheese was creamy good but has some after-taste to it that was a bit off for me - not sure what it was, it just looked better than it tasted. The beans - meh. The potato salad was solid. The onions - loved them! Very fresh and large cuts of them. I love onions and these were top notch. The spicy sweet sauce was really good. Everyone cleaned that up. The regular sauce - was meh. All that comes to a B- (IMO of course). But had that brisket been better seasoned, less salt, it would have made this a 4-star review, and i would have been really happy because it was juicy, well made, great bark on it, and good flavor. I'm thinking we got a bad batch? But don't let the 3-star fool ya, I'd still give these guys a go when I'm in Kyle, and you should too. read more

Smokey Mo's is great, reasonably priced bbq. What makes it even better is that it's in the neighborhood, close to home so there's no need to fight traffic driving into town for a great meal. The dining room is fresh and comfortable for dining in. Meat is perfectly done and portions are sizable. And there are several options for sides. The green beans, potato salad, Mac-n-cheese are all great! read more

I would say Smokey Mo's BBQ is just alright. The concept is super similar to Rudy's (ie decent chain barbecue) but I wasn't wowed by it. I had a 2 meat plate with brisket and sausage, green beans and pinto beans. Wouldn't order the green beans again, but the pinto beans and meat were decent. The service was as good as you'd expect for counter service and the new shop was pretty nice (& clean). read more

Tried this place recently and was pleasantly surprised. Friendly customer service, and the big Mo sandwich with chopped brisket and pork loin was delicious. The barbecue sauce had a nice little kick to it as well and the side of beans were super tasty. The mac & cheese and potato salad were okay but I have been thinking about that sandwich since I had it and have plans to go back again soon. read more

The service at this place was amazing and I had no problem with that at all. The food came out quick which I also enjoyed since I was taking it to go. The food however was not good. I got the jalapeño sausage which just tastes like sausage from H‑E‑B that I cooked at home. Nothing special and kinda dry. I also got the ribs which the bark was good and the seasoning was great but the way the ribs were cooked is not appealing to me. They were dry and tough to eat. The cream corn was "mid" to say the least and could find better elsewhere and the green beans were terrible. They tasted like I went to the store, bought a can of green beans, heated them up in the microwave and ate them. No flavor and no seasoning. Last but not least I tried the mac n cheese and it's straight from the box which some people may like but if it's a local joint I'm expecting better then just boxed commercial Mac n cheese. I'm coming off harsh because the place looked like it had so much potential and it's not a chain. Rudy's is a chain and tastes better. read more

The staff were very friendly and restaurant clean. The prices seemed reasonable for bbq. However, unfortunately all the meats except the smoked turkey were really overdone and not very flavorful. The bacon cheddar potatoes were also not at all what I was expecting, it's more like covered diced potatoes than a casserole or mashed side. Probably won't be returning. read more

Decent meat, little fatty, but decent. Plenty of seating and options to choose from. Wish they had more options for their bbq sauce though. I would eat here again. Try it out if you're in the area. Price isn't too bad either. read more

What a nice surprise! This place exceeded my expectations. We tried the 3 meat plate with marbled brisket, turkey, and lean brisket with buttered potatoes and creamed corn. Generous portions and the sides were delicious. We called to get our order to go, the gal who answered was super sweet and went above and beyond to help us. Our order was ready immediately. The restaurant is in a great location. Next time we want bbq, we will go and dine in. read more

Good sliced brisket sandwich. Their sliced brisket is tender and juicy. I would definitely go back.

I'm a BBQ snob! To establish my BBQ street creds, I grew up here in Central Texas before the influx of BBQ newbies. Lockhart, Luling, Taylor, Bastrop and Elgin, Texas BBQ joints were and still are the kings of Texas BBQ, in my opinion. I not so snobbish as to not try out a new BBQ joint. I have NOT tried the ribs or any of the sides in this place so I cannot comment on those food item. The shop does appear to cry all the typical sides you would expect to see in a BBQ joint. The items I have tried are the brisket and sausage. The brisket is fair. It has a somewhat tasty bark and not too salty, but I didn't see heavy, red, meat smoke rings which typically occurs when meat is smoked low, slow and long, with oak. To me, sausage tasted STRAIGHT-UP commercial. On the positive side, the staff are friendly, patient and fill orders quickly and accurately. The place is very clean (especially the bathroom); the seating picnic style; well lit by natural lighting. The shop is located a strip type mall with a lot of parking. I will not rate the BBQ prices because satisfaction with product is relative to what one will pay for a service. I will use the business again. The store is close, open everyday, and when you need to satisfy a BBQ Jones thats a major positive. Gotta try those ribs though and soon! read more

So good!!! We got everything! Ordered to go and ate it too fast to post pictures. Excellent job!

Been to Smokey Mo's up in Austin and wanted to try the Kyle location while I was down there. Great brisket as always and treated myself to the pork belly burnt ends which I think are relatively new. They were excellent with a slightly sweet and tangy smoked flavor. Sides of Mac and cheese and coleslaw finished off another nice meal from Smokey Mo's! read more

Good BBQ and friendly service. My son asks for Smokey Mo's sausage all of the time and my daughter loves the green beans!

First off, the smell in here is heavenly If they sold a candle that smelled like their bbq, I'd buy it! The service and food was top level! I've been here twice, and can't wait to go here again! I think the food is reasonably priced for the quantity you're given on your plate. read more

Absolutely delicious!!! This is some delicious Texas BBQ. The ribs just fell off the bone. Highly recommend this restaurant!!

I was craving a Sloppy Joe Sandwhich, and I was lucky enough to discover this place. I got a shredded beef sandwhich, and they provide 2 bottles per table of BBQ sauce: regular & spicy. Both sauces were excellent, so all you have to do is open up your sloppy Joe and apply your preferred sauce, and it was delicious and exactly what I wanted! They also have a little corner area with toppings like onions, pickles, lemons, & white bread. I do recommend the place. I was happy! read more
