From the moment we entered, the young lady at the cash register was incredibly friendly. My mother needed a bit of time to look over the menu, and she was very patient, even offering to help with any questions we had. That was really thoughtful! Everyone we encountered was nice! I ordered what was hands down the most delicious BBQ potato I've ever had, while my mother enjoyed a brisket plate with a rib. Every bite was delightful! We loved the food so much that we decided to take some brisket home with us. This is a fantastic local spot located in a charming downtown area. The food is amazing, and the service is EXCEPTIONAL. We will definitely keep returning to Milt's!

The menu features the usual lineup of meats: brisket, chicken, ribs, and sausage, along with sides like potato salad, beans, mac and cheese, and cheesy corn. The staff was friendly and attentive. I opted for the three-meat plate (whose name I can't recall), which included brisket, a sausage link, and two substantial pork ribs. I also tried the coleslaw and mac and cheese. The brisket was absolutely perfect—tender, moist, and seasoned exquisitely. The ribs practically fell off the bone while still maintaining a bit of chew. The sausage was Lockhart sausage, which isn't my favorite, but it was decent. The mac and cheese was good, though I personally think it could benefit from some jalapeños. The coleslaw was tasty. Maria had the smoked chicken, which was well-seasoned; the white meat was juicy, while the dark meat was a tad dry. She also enjoyed the potato salad, but found the beans a bit too sweet for her liking. Overall, I highly recommend Milt's for BBQ.

I really love the location and hope this was just a one-time bad experience, so I will definitely try again.

We had been craving BBQ for days and decided to grab some as we headed back to AUS to travel home and found Milts on Yelp. We love BBQ and are always looking out for something new. I will break down this rating by item, as that can help when deciding if it's worth the trip/stop. Realistically it's more like 3.5 stars, but I bumped it up based on the quality of the meat itself. Brisket (sliced 4.5 stars well seasoned tender Brisket sandwich roll 5 stars soft and buttery Ribs 3.5/4 perfectly cooked with a delicious crispy bark, (a tad too salty for me, personally. BBQ Sauce 4.0 sauce is very subjective this was nicely balanced with a medium consistency. Mac Cheese 3.5 stars tasted scratch made. It was good but not really memorable Green Beans 2.0 fresh but kinda boring (Zimmerhanzel's in Smithville has the BEST and kinda ruined anyone else's for me, but I always have to try them anyway Cole slaw 3.0 fresh, not too heavy, nothing special Potato salad 3.0 good, nothing special Service 5.0 welcoming, friendly, and prompt We didn't try the Sausages or pulled pork, but based on the meats we tried, I would definitely recommend trying the rest. Overall we were happy with our lunch, it scratched the itch, and it was a cute little spot in downtown Kyle.
