5 stars all around! Our first time visiting Kiser’s in this location did not disappoint! From the time we walked in until we walked out, we felt welcome, comfortable, and appreciated.
We ordered a variety to share. We ordered the individual sides, and they were VERY generous portions! More than enough for two to share! The meat portions on the sandwiches were also very generous, and the buns were toasty and warm, yet soft and delicious, the perfect kind of bun for good bbq!
The flavor of the meat instantly hits in the first bite. Delish! The sweet sauce is very unique and flavorful…I picked up some appley (is that a word?) notes, which I absolutely loved.
The stewed beans…holy moly! So so good with little chunks of bacon goodness (and sausage, I believe!) Again, like the sauce, very unique! Not the typical bbq beans.
The cornmeal biscuits were fantastic, served with REAL BUTTER.
The house made pickles and onions…YUM!
Sweet tea…PERFECT!
I can’t say a bad word about anything! I only wish we had enough room to eat every bite, but with the generous portions, we were filled to the brim!
Can’t wait to try the house made smoke sausage next time!
Super friendly, helpful, and attentive staff! Extra clean dining area and restrooms, and the kicker…
***BETTER THAN MYRON MIXON! We ate at the Myron Mixon restaurant in Gatlinburg several weeks ago, expecting to have the best barbecue ever. We couldn’t have been more disappointed. KISER’S blows that place out of the water!!! Meats, sides, service, the whole nine yards. Better BY FAR!!!

Staff super friendly and attentive. Loaded fries where good made them better by adding my slaw from my chicken Sammy. The tenders are juicy could use some salt or flavor! The grilled cheese was the bomb..maybe less cheese as it took over the flavor of the brisket!! Would return!!

Good BBQ. We had a couple of pork sandwiches and the kids had fried chicken fingers. Spicy pulled pork sandwich was delicious, won’t bring your face off but it was good. We had onion rings, fries and potato salad for our sides. Kids loved the fries with buffalo sauce and my wife and I really enjoyed the potato salad.

Absolute must stop if you love BBQ and are visiting Athens! You can go in and grab your menu, seat your self and easily order using QR code on the table, if that’s not your style someone will come take your order but we honestly loved being able to talk and browse the menu and order on our own time. It smelled delicious and being able to see them make your food we instantly knew we were in for a treat. It was very clean all the staff was friendly! Our service was super quick and the food was as expected delicious! We had to sample both the fries and chips both were great choices so you can’t go wrong with either one. I opted for a pulled pork sandwich and got the slaw on the side and my daughter got the Mac and cheese topped with pulled pork. We both chose the sweet heat bbq which was delicious. The slaw was some of the best I have ever had and the pork was piled high and cooked to perfection. As an added bonus the restaurant is very nice with murals on the outside walls. I believe in nicer weather there is also outdoor seating (it was storming on our visit). Other positives are the super cute kids corner and love the fact that they donate 10% every Tuesday to local charities. I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our visit and will most definitely be making many more return stops next time I’ll try to snap more photos!

Order at the counter, and they will bring your food to your table. We grabbed a table, and the food was out in about 10 minutes. They do not serve any alcoholic drinks. I ordered the Polish Boy, and my wife had the half chicken. The Polish boy is covered with fries and slaw, and I also added pulled pork to my sandwich. They have different sauces you can also try, from mild to hot. Both meals were quite good.

Pulled pork had a great flavor and didn’t even need sauce but the Carolina BBQ sauce took it to another level. The brisket Mac and cheese was packed full of flavor and the portion size was huge. Service was quick and the staff we interacted with was friendly and helpful. Curbside pick up is available and convenient. 10/10 would recommend and will be back.

I took my son here for his birthday dinner. We were really excited to get a good barbecue place. It was the most disappointing thing ever. I got the special which was chicken as well as some onion rings and biscuits. The chicken was so hard I could barely eat it. The chicken thigh had one bite of meat on it. It was like they burnt all of the meat off. The onion rings were practically black when they brought them to me, completely burnt. The biscuits were hard as a rock, and that is no exaggeration. I couldn’t even tear a piece off to eat it. They must have been sitting out all day.
The girl who waited on us when I was trying to ask her questions about things because we have never been there. She was looking down on her phone the whole time while answering me. She never came back to check on us, so therefore I couldn’t tell her how awful my food was and ask for something different or a refund. I think she has reddish dark hair if I remember correctly. The guys in the back we’re talking about a show called wife swap, which I thought was very unprofessional as well as the girl outfront being on her phone The whole time while people are trying to talk to her. Such an unprofessional environment and the food was horrible.
Even after that awful experience, I decided to give them one more chance. Ordered a brisket, Reuben. The brisket was completely dry.
I don’t understand how people keep eating here because the only thing I can think of is that they’re not used to good food or good restaurants. Because if you’re used to good food, you would never think this is good food.
The only reason I gave them two stars is because they do have really good ice cream cones and that’s the only thing I will ever get from there again

Had an absolutely great experience here! Quick and easy access off of route 33. Staff were friendly. Ordering was easy. The restaurant and the bathrooms were very clean. Most importantly, the food was delicious! I will definitely be coming back.

I am NOT a barbeque girly, but me and my partner went here because I knew he’d like it and I figured I could find something I liked there. Y’all, my burger was DELICIOUS!! We went yesterday for lunch around noon and I’m still thinking about this burger and drooling, literally. The Mac and cheese was so so good, I just got a small side but my partner got loaded Mac and loved it! And being from Louisiana , it takes a really good sweet tea to impress me and I am very impressed! Portions were great, service was great, atmosphere was great! I don’t usually leave reviews but this place is a hidden gem in my eyes 🙂
