My friend and I went there on Saturday. The service there was outstanding. The wait staff person,…read moreMattie was a very pleasant person. Very knowledgeable of the menus and what was available. She was very attentive to our table while we were there. Always checking on us if we needed something. I watched her as she made her round and she gave the same service to every table that I watched her at. The food was brought out in a very timely manner and was it still hot and very good. We both had the crawfish poor boys. They were perfectly made. The ambience there was very friendly and sort of noisy. However, this is the kind of restaurant that it is. There's people from all over, talking about this that the other, so you overhear each other's conversations. Again, the food was outstanding and very good. However, the bright spot was the young lady Mattie that insured our moment in the restaurant were very good. Thank you Mattie for a wonderful lunch experience.

I'm done with this joint. I've been here 3 times in the last year and it's always been a disaster…read more First time was the loaded baked potato at over $12 a pop. Got it home and the potato was as hard as a rock. You've got to split that thing open to put the fillings in and they had the nerve to pass that on to a customer, no thanks. Second time was the BBQ sandwich that made me sick, awful experience. Third time was a couple of days ago. Again, the loaded BBQ baked potato. Thank you for cooking it thoroughly this time. Problem was the lack of meat on it. Just ridiculous! I paid $13.00 for a baked potato, oh yeah, I also got sick again. Never go here folks, you'll regret it!

First time having Smokey Mo's and it did not disappoint! It's so conveniently close to our home so…read moreit was an easy choice for a quick dinner. I ordered on Yelp and unfortunately by the time my husband arrived for the order they had run out of ribs :( made me sad because I was really looking forward to the ribs. I got chicken & brisket instead for my 2 meat plate. I ordered creamed corn and Mac & cheese. I was very impressed with how flavorful and moist the meats were. It's a chain restaurant so I was skeptical. Happy to say we were all satisfied, other than the fact that they had no ribs! That just means we'll have to return. Our order was ready very quickly too which is a plus! Overall good experience! Definitely recommend!

The absolute WORST cheeseburgers we've ever had in our life…read more Had high hopes for a good Cheeseburger on a Friday night. Beers are cold so that was a positive. Ordered the 1/2 pound bean burger and the onion rings. The Bean and Cheese burger was less than memorable and the onion rings were all batter no onion. The wife ordered the mushroom Swiss burger and the bun became one with the burger due to the excessive grease. We are locals and love supporting local business but this is one we won't be coming back to. Absolutely a waste of money and honestly a burger from Whataburger would have been better than what we were served tonight. Their strawberry margarita tasted like strawberry syrup and alcohol and was also less than palatable. The buns were not toasted and both burger buns were soggy and made the entire dining experience a less than memorable one.

We normally like Beefy's and chose to have dinner there. Even though it is January, the temps were…read moreonly a littke cool. We decided to eat outside, knowing from past visits that there were propane patio heaters. And yes, there were 4 heaters. However, none were functional. Dunno why Beefy's keeps them there other than to fool customers. It could have have been a great evening meal instead it was something less than mediocre.

***Yelpers Take Note***: this is Not a regular restaurant…read more It is catering only based out of owner's residence. Hours on Yelp indicate it's a regular restaurant. Nope. Only read the first review, which gave no indication of this. Drove to Bulverde to start a bbq sandwich tour of small towns west of Aus. Found out the hard way. Owner should take over the Yelp entry, modify hours, & let the web know it's not a regular rstrnt. 2 stars due to misleading web info.

Turned out it was someone's home. Evidently they can be hired for catering. This is NOT a sit-down…read morerestaurant.

Our daughter found this BBQ and wanted to try it out. We drove up & it's not fancy but the smell of delicious BBQ hit us as we got out of the car so we knew it was promising! We pored over the menu and I decided on a sausage sandwich with Mac 'n Cheese. You order at the counter and food is brought out. The rustic interior was clean and we easily found a table. It wasn't too long before we all received our meals. We all agreed this was great BBQ! My sausage had a bit of heat but it was tasty! The Mac 'n Cheese was rich & savory. We loved the BBQ sauce. Our grandson claimed his chicken strips & fries were the best he ever had & this kid does not lie! Everything was so good! As we were leaving I spoke to one of the owners to let him know we really enjoyed the BBQ & asked if I could take a photo. He said Tracy was in the back & I asked if she could also pose for a snapshot. They sweetly obliged me. I told him we were from CA but hubby's parents used to live in Canyon Lake. They gave me some free stickers to share. Great BBQ, friendly staff, and welcoming owners! What's not to love?

Quite a number of regulars there who were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu as well. We spoke with Larry about the menu options and queried him as to his favorites and wound up with a delicious meal consisting of a little bit of everything, We shared a combo plate with brisket, burnt ends and sausage with 2 sides; pea salad and potato salad. Everything was so good!!

Visiting from Michigan this is the exact kind of place I always for when traveling. Local,…read moreno-frills, just good grubbin. Amazing brisket and turkey (they did not have ribs the day I was there ). All of the sides were amazing and yes, they give you a complementary beer while you're waiting (or bottle of water).

All of it went well. Always does. Niks is amazing. We've never been disappointed with this BBQ!read more

Had been a few years since we last visited but six of us went yesterday to enjoy a birthday lunch…read moreand we were not disappointed! Wait staff greeted us with a smile and while we initially were going to sit in the patio area we decided to return to the front room (may need another split a/c unit in the patio area ). Our drink order was taken within minutes, our appetizer of nachos with grilled chicken was delivered quickly, and within ten minutes or so our entrees were brought out. Both son-in-law and hubby ordered the chicken fried steak which they devoured and proclaimed delicious. The rest of us ordered Cobb and Caesar salads with grilled chicken. Beautiful presentation, and the grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned and tender. In fact, every ingredient in the salad was wonderfully fresh. Wish I remembered our waitress' name as I would giver her a shout out as well! Had a great experience in such an iconic restaurant.

Food AMAZING If…read moreyou want a small drive out into the hill country, this is the place to go for a great spot to eat at. It is about 30 minutes away from San Antonio. Great indoor outdoor seating and it was not really hot outside this time of the year and we had gotten to the restaurant at 5. It is a very family friendly place and they do have live music that play in the evenings. I did tell them it was my first time trying out the restaurant, and the owner came by himself and greeted us and thanked us that we came to his restaurant. I would have given five stars, but our waitress was not attentive as I would like it to be, but they were getting busy throughout that next hour we were there. We did get a slice of chocolate cake, which I highly recommend if there is any left because it is a very popular dessert!

I ordered at closing time which hours IMO are a bit hard to find. I kind of like the fact that…read morethere isn't a legit website and online ordering, but if they had them I'd assume they'd have a good deal more business. To me, mains- chicken and chopped beef sandwich are very good, brisket a bit on the dry side but still better than a lot (again I was the last customer of the day so tbd). Sides-potato salad and beans very good, and Mac so-so. Will be going back though.
