The Salt Lick - Round Rock - Round Rock (TX)

4 /5 PL: Today was our first visit to the Round Rock location, and we enjoyed the meal there. We ordered beef ribs, pork ribs, sausages, coleslaw, and sweet potato fries. The beef ribs were coated in BBQ sauce, which was a bit unexpected and somewhat disappointing. I had expected the ribs to be simply smoked. The flavor was acceptable but not outstanding. The pork ribs were decent, with a pleasant smoky scent and just the right seasoning. The sweet potato fries were a delightful surprise, tasting great and served in a large portion. Our server was very attentive and friendly throughout our visit.

5 /5 Thulasi Ganesh: Salt Lick has been our go-to spot for BBQ for over a year, and it never disappoints. The flavor, quality, and service have remained top-notch every single visit. A special shout-out to Jacob, who went above and beyond during our recent meal. He was kind, courteous, and thoughtful—suggesting mac and cheese as a side for our toddler, which turned out to be a hit. The portions are generous to say the least. With four of us sharing, we still had to work hard to finish the three meals we ordered. It’s the kind of hearty BBQ that leaves you satisfied and smiling. If you’re looking for the best BBQ with consistently great service, Salt Lick is the place. Highly recommended for families and groups alike!

5 /5 Rachel Davidson: Amazing BBQ place. We celebrated a birthday party here. The staff was accommodating and attentive to our party. Tye brisket was moist and we loved the homemade spicy bbq sauces. It’s a great place to dine with your family. Plenty of parking. Conveniently located near the Kalahari resort.

5 /5 Jennifer Hughes: My son requested Salt Lick for his 9th bday celebration with friends. I reserved a table for 20, they were able to let me set up a little bit early with a few decorations. Hostess and waitress were great with everything. We were even in the way a bit for pictures but all the staff was incredibly patient. Everyone had a blast and food was delicious.

1 /5 Kiyah: Not impressed. Tough chewy beef ribs, decent mac n cheese, and baked beans that taste nasty when it first touches your pallete; but then leaves an equally awful metallic aftertaste. The quality on the ribs was not consistent. Youll have 1 part thats juicy, another thats dry and tough, and then 1 part thats a mix of both somehow. Didnt finish it; threw the rest in the trash. The employees were very nice but Im going back to Slabs BBQ for now.
