Classic southern dishes. Nice interior. Friendly staff. I was expecting it to be busy but this place was dead on a Friday evening. Food was average, nothing special. Easy access off Main Street with a large parking lot. Interested in trying their breakfast menu. read more

Had a salad with chicken on it and some onion rings. Place was busy; but it was early (before noon) and the place seemed it could have been cleaner. Staff had been cordial; but not overly friendly. Will be back - it's a nice break from the usual spots around town read more

Had the clem's famous white wings, pinto beans, potato salad, brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage! Everything was well flavored and prepared! If ever in Belton Texas, please try this place out! A gem for sure, 5 stars! read more

Known for their BBQ, it's nice that they have expanded their menu to include burgers, fish, shrimp, steaks and more. Very friendly and attentive. read more

Great food and service. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The dining room is large. I had dinner with my family. I had the Chicken Fried Steak with Fries and a Side salad. My daughter had The Grilled Chicken with Swiss Cheese and Mushrooms with Buttered Potatoes! My oldest Grandson had the Grilled Chicken with sautéed Jalapeños and Buttered Potatoes. My middle Grandson had the Chicken Fried Sandwich with Fries! And My youngest Grandson had The BELTON TIGER BURGER with Fries. The food was fresh a hot. The food tasted good. The hardest thing to do here it deciding on what to order. It all tastes really good. read more

Love Clem Mikeska, we never had a bad situation when ordering food or picking up food keep up the good work

Good food, nice Texas ambience. got a brisket plate with loaded potato and green beans- the brisket was so tender and good. Could be more charred but that's a personal preference. Service was efficient but not too friendly. The free rolls were fresh and delicious. Friend got the loaded baked potato and really enjoyed it. read more

Nice, big restaurant with table service vs the more common cafeteria style service you find in many other BBQ restaurants. Waitress was very nice and attentive. Only downside was the BBQ. Overall pretty bland without much smokiness to it at all. I had the double meat plate with turkey and jalapeno sausage with pinto beans and green beans on the side. Here's a breakdown: Turkey - Typically I find that turkey and chicken do a good job of soaking in the smokey flavor of a BBQ but this turkey, while good, did not have much of a BBQ flavor. Simply tasted like an oven roasted turkey. Jalapeno and cheese sausage - It's evident there was jalapeno in the sausage because I could clearly see it, however, there was virtually no jalapeno flavor. There was definitely a cheese flavor, but often times the cheese flavor was stronger than the sausage flavor. Pinto beans & green beens - Both were generally bland without much flavor. I don't know for certain, but I wonder if the meat isn't prepared elsewhere and then shipped in for the restaurant to heat up as needed. read more

Food servings are very small for the chicken dishes we ordered, flavor was just okay. Waitress was nice, but seemed overly busy like they were understaffed for a Friday night. It was so loud and echoey I couldn't hear my family talking to me. They were out of baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, and only had a small serving of butter potato's...uh...we wanted potatoes besides French fries, that's half your vegetable list. Didn't get a picture of one of the chicken dish cuz of how puny it was. We even ordered the 3 meat bbq plate to go since the puny chicken plate wasn't enough to fill my son up, and it only had like half a sausage link, 2 slices of brisket, and 3 small slices of the tri tip. Was very disappointed. Probably won't be back. read more

My wife ordered 2, 2 meat plates, and the cashier said $37.00. My wife said that doesn't sound right. The price on-line (even Yelp) says $8.75 a plate. He said that's not our website that's Googles. WHAT? so Google just makes up prices for your food that you don't honor . Why would a business allow that to happen.? Or do they think everybody that sees that has stupid written on their forehead and will pay whatever price they makeup when they're paying so it really doesn't matter. Fix it Mikeskas. read more

Let me start by saying, I am a faithful member of the melanin community. With that stated, the food was prepared properly (concerning being edible). The experience with staff was acceptable. BUT..... Unless you're on high blood pressure medication, this is not the place for you. Every single item we ordered, significantly lacked seasoning. I do completely understand, this is a personal preference. The foreshadowing concerning the lack of seasoning was prevalent, as I noticed a strong presence of senior citizens. You might ask, will I return? The answer is, absolutely not for dining in. I might consider the to-go option, bring it home, and put some slap ya mama on EVERYTHING!!!! Then again, I'd take my chances driving to Waco or even Killeen, for some properly seasoned BBQ. read more

10/10 amazing food and service!! Love the cozy family feel Clem's has, and the owners are very sweet amazing people.

NEVER had the breakfast till Today and it was a BIG Ol' portion. The Pancakes were a NICE triple-Stack. read more

I have tried this establishment once before, and it hasn't improved at all. I ordered the two meat plate with jalapeno and cheddar sausage, and smoked turkey with green beans and pinto beans. The smoked turkey was completely bone dry, but the flavor was not too bad, the green beans were obviously from a can and just had bacon and some onion added to it with no flavor from either. The pinto beans were watery, had no flavor and even with salt and pepper, plus hot sauce, it had no flavor at all. The only plus of the meal was the jalapeno and cheddar sausage and the unsweetened tea. Please, save your money and tastebuds and go elsewhere for your bbq meal. read more

We stopped in here for lunch and it was pretty hopping. It's located in a sort of open mall area and there is lots of parking so no issues there. We came inside and it was busy but we were seated right away. The server took our orders pretty quickly so there were no issues there. The food came out without any issuse and honestly it was really good. The brisket was moist, the turkey was moist as well if not a bit too peppery on the skin but I just cut it off. The fries were freshly fried up so all in all it was a good meal and I'd come back here again. The bathrooms aren't quite obvious but I was able to find them. read more

I love take out bbq at Mikeska's in Belton! It's always delicious and tender. Convenient location, the staff is very customer oriented . Thank you Mikeska's! read more

Claire Mikeskas is is the model of how good service should be. The wait staff is 1000% amazing. Even on that super busy Sunday after church lunch rush... Everyone kept their cool and things ran very smoothly. Kudos to the staff! The brisket is always tasty and flavorful. I particularly love the chicken fried steak. You get a lot of meat and not a lot of breading. I only wish that they offered more vegetable choices. The green beans are extremely salty. And for those of us that can't have a lot of sodium, that doesn't leave a lot of options for a hearty vegetable to accompany your meal. Maybe corn on the cob or carrots ? Our family has been back several times and always enjoy trying different things on the menu. But seriously, you can't go wrong with the brisket plate or the chicken fried steak. read more

Food is great, very family friendly and the ambiance is awesome. Always have a hard time choosing what I want cause there's so much great options. For first timers I recommend the steaks! read more

My wife and I have eaten here fairly regularly for nearly a year, and have never experienced any of what others have complained about. The staff has always been pleasant, the place is always clean, and the food is good. Clem's prices are very fair compared to other Bar-B-Q establishments in the area, and when you leave you don't smell like you've been hovering over an open pit. For those that have never been, below are some of my Clem's favorites, and would be my recommendations to you. Enjoy! Apps White Wings (Or as a meal, too) Cheese Curds Entrees Fried Catfish and Shrimp Ribeye Belton Tiger Burger Grilled Pork Chops Brisket and Ribs Chicken Fried Steak Sides Dinner garden salad with blue cheese dressing Cole Slaw Fried Okra Sauteed Broccoli If there's one thing that they could do to improve upon, that would be to add some smoked pork loin to the menu. read more

Thought we would try it regardless of the low ratings that we saw and the ratings were correct. The food was not great. Although, the customer service was good....the reason this review received two stars instead of one. The food is definitely not from scratch...its more of a fast food feel. I would not recommend you even try this particular restaurant, you will be disappointed. read more

Way too many great bbq places in the vicinity to eat here. It had been years since I'd been here but I thought I'd give it another try. Dry, expensive and the sauce couldn't even bail it out. Meats tasted like they'd been made days ago. Sides were decent and the place was clean. Staff was also friendly. read more

The Clem special was good and the steak was perfect cooked and the service was amazing I recommend this place.

Ordered to-go this evening and the young man that took my order and cashed me out was very well mannered and polite. I'm from Houston and you can find good service hit and miss but here in Belton, especially at Clems, every time we go there has been great service and nice staff. The food here is great as well. The brisket and ribs were perfect. Will definitely be back again soon. read more

I went to for the fish since it's Good Friday. I got there at 8:30 p.m. Order and then all of a sudden then are picking up the chair and sweeping. I asked what time do you close. 9 p.m. on a Friday night, yes every night accept 4 p.m. on Sunday. I asked for rolls and was told we don't have any, they got the last ones. Then I heard them tell the lady we do not have any sweet tea. When they brought out my dinner I asked for the hush puppies, she said we haven't had any since Tuesday. You know places run out. It's not really easy to eat your dinner and they're sweeping and and putting things away around you So I got a box and paid my bill and left at 9:06 p.m. read more

Cooked my steak perfectly! The server was extremely friendly and accommodating. The prices were reasonable. The decor was interesting.

We love Clem's. I usually get the catfish , which is always amazing, but I decided to branch out and got the CFS, with mashed potatoes and fried okra. It was all fresh and delicious. Plenty for leftovers today. The service was friendly and efficient, but we were not offered the usual rolls and honey butter, and we forgot to ask. read more

This place is a shell of what I remember it being... haven't been here in years and decided to try it again but wish I hadn't. Paid $20 for 1/2 pound of extremely dry and tough brisket, 1/4 pound of okay ribs, and bland Mac and cheese... Go to miller's down the road and save yourself the trouble of paying for sub par BBQ. Wish I had. Miller's is always excellent and prices are similar. This place is extremely overpriced for the quality. Sorry Clem, hate to say it but this place has gone down the drain read more

The facility / environment / atmosphere was nice, clean, and spacious, the food was delicious, tasty, and superb, the service was great / friendly and the prices were reasonable! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I got the ribs, bad quality. Barely any meat, portion sizes are weak. I don't recommend.

This place has a very welcoming atmosphere and the staff is very friendly, i was traveling through town and saw this little steakhouse and figured I'd give it a shot. The food came out so fast and i was very pleased with everything. Ribs were a little plain but still very good and cooked to perfection. Coming back for sure read more

I'm guessing the food is OK, but I wouldn't know because I never got served. There were three or four waitresses standing around talking. No one ever came over to even take a drink order. I left after about 10 minutes. For whatever reason I was invisible to the wait staff. read more

Very dry brisket and turkey. I almost thought they mistakenly gave me their jerky. The salad had more cheese than enchiladas do. They should have taken some of the cheese off of the salad for the Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese was flavorless. Only thing good was the baked potato which is hard to mess up. read more

Mikeska's in Belton has a good wait staff but their food is not the best. Tonight for the 5th straight time they were out of baked potatoes. They were also out of ranch dressing and broccoli. Their fish is usually fair but tonight is was so greasy and strong neither my wife nor I couldn't eat it. My wife's salad had more cheese and than lettuce. Previously when we ordered their 1/4 lbs sliced BBQ plate we got more fat than meat. There is no management on site to complain to. It falls on the wait staff to apologize for the quality of the food but apparently they have no authority to make amends. This is the last time for us. read more

This food is the worst BBQ chicken I have ever had. The half of chicken was very dry and tasted bad. Potato salad was runny and green beans were terrible. Service was very rude will not going back here ever again. read more

Food is always pretty decent, but damn....not a single employee was wearing a mask or gloves. The waitresses that had masks were wearing them like chin-diapers. We're 8 months into a pandemic, guys. It's not that hard to follow safety precautions. read more

Have eaten here a few times but never tried their bar b que until today. Won't be trying it again. Ordered a beef (brisket) and sausage sandwich which by the way is listed at 6.95 on the website but in reality it was 7.95 The brisket was cut too thick and was so dry it was almost inedible and the sausage had the texture of spam. Absolutely not worth the $8.61 I paid for it. Even the side salad today was sorry. read more
