Tumlinsons Smoky Top - Llano

Incredible BBQ in Llano! Every item on the menu is delicious. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and has a friendly atmosphere. The owners are fantastic! This is our go-to spot for bringing friends and family when they come to visit.

We decided to stop by while traveling after checking out the reviews, and we're so glad we did. The food is fantastic—some of the best BBQ we've had in a long time. The staff are incredibly friendly, passionate about their work, and it really shows in the quality of the food!

We had initially intended to visit the renowned barbecue spot in Llano that everyone talks about. However, after receiving several recommendations, we decided to give this place a try. I can confidently say that it's some of the best barbecue I've ever had in Texas! The brisket was incredibly tender and almost melted in my mouth, while the ribs were juicy and packed with flavor. I highly recommend making a stop here if you're in the area, whether you choose to dine in or grab takeout—either way, it's excellent. I know I'll be making a point to return whenever I have the chance!

Stopped here for lunch today. Great food. Had the moist barky brisket, ribs and sausage. Being from DFW, many TX Monthly Top 50 available. This is worthy of being amongst some of those. Maybe the best ribs I?ve ever had (the dry rub ones)!! If you lovecraft Bbq, it?s here!!!! Super clean place and super friendly cook and staff.

We were hoping to visit another well-known grill restaurant in Ilano, but we ended up here based on recommendations. I must say, this is hands down one of the best grills I've had in Texas! The meat was delicious, and the ribs were incredibly moist and flavorful. I would recommend this place to anyone passing through; it's definitely worth a stop for a meal. Whether you dine in or take it to go, the food is fantastic. I'll personally make it a point to return every chance I get!
