Nice atmosphere. Cafeteria style serving. The food was actually cold when we came so the flavor wasn’t the best. The brisket has good texture and bbq sauce is ok. Rice and hash browns have good flavor but were not fresh and a little hard. Chicken was fresh and juicy and goes well with bbq. Potato salad was good. Probably best to try on a busy day.

Great BBQ and very nice workers. The pecan pie was delicious and the sweet iced tea had free refills. The art on the walls was really cool! A steady flow of customers, this is a popular spot!

This location has been such a blessing, from my personal Individual orders to my big company orders, they have always been ready and on-time, which is a big help in my field. I can’t say enough, the gentlemen Mr. Crawford (one of the managers) is the person I always speak too for my orders, very respectful and reassuring to know my orders will be completed. Thank you Sir. Great to know there is still amazing customer service.

I go to five locations. They’re meat is delicious but the service in the sense of listening is none existent at best . I do eat healthy but mostly ask for a chicken sandwich dru ( no sauce ) due to the sauce used most likely allergic to some ingredient in the sauce so has to be without it . No joke , 8-10 times order is wrong , either given a meal , mixed meat and/ sauce in the sandwich which inedible. At first glance looks like no sauce , once open sandwich , sauce alright . I’ve emailed letters , talkede to corporate office three times to area managers, same thing . The people taking the orders rush you and cut you off assuming they know what you want. Even with a screen of your order to show you what still get it wrong . I’ve counted 28 times and it must be close to 50 times order is wrong ( no joke ). Food is good , quality / integrity of service .. well terrible .

Great flavors, but most of the food was lukewarm. Every side I ordered was sloppily served – I shouldn’t have to sop up juices before I eat. Atmosphere is homey, utensils are practical. All around a good meal, but it needs to be more refined and less messy.

Always delicious options for your lunch, I particularly like the brisket sandwich with fries, yummy! Great and courteous fast service. The only downside is the charge to refill your soda, besides that, don’t miss to go there.

We come here a lot for breakfast. The barbecue is okay, I really like their turkey; but the brisket isn’t the best and the sausage is really fatty. Sure, I eat it when it lands in front of me, but my money is always direct to their excellent chicken strips or the aforementioned smoked turkey breast. They have some of the best breakfast tacos, which is saying a lot I know. They’re a tad expensive, but you’d be hard pressed to find a better fast food breakfast taco. I’m not a big fan of their sweet tea, but most people swear by it. Overall decent, but not great. It’s a San Antonio staple, though so it’s always busy.

Healthy delicious meals are super easy to find here. The Chicken Delight can’t be beat. You also really ought to try their hashed browns with the green beans– or just the green bean juice– on top. It tastes amazingly good.

As an avid lover of Bill Miller’s Bar-b-Que, I make it a point to stop in everytime I am in town. It’s one of my go to spots for good food and my only go spot for Bar-b-Que when I come to my second home. But unfortunately, I am a little disappointed in the quality of food I received when I stopped by the St. MARY’S location in downtown on July 17. I ordered a few combo plates, one being fried chicken, which I happen to love. Only the pieces I received were very dry and appeared to be over cooked. The rest of our meals were great, as is everything I order on a regular basis. I hope this is jus an isolated incident as I know that my previous experiences have proven to be outstanding.
