39 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Lenexa

“Melissa was wonderful give her a raise!!! We had the 2 que burnt end combo and the beef just melts in your mouth. We don’t live here but we’ll definitely be back. We have family that flys their private plane in just to come here for a meal and then flys back to Iowa. It really is that good!!!“

“I like the BBQ @ Sierra. It is different I compare it to Carolina BBQ. The yellow sauce has a bit too much mustard ,for my taste, but everything else is excellent! Friendly and fast service. The beer is “cold”. Give it a try you will like it !“

“Recently had a funeral luncheon in the event room and both my wife and I were very pleased with the food, service and venue. The Zarda staff were more than accommodating and went out of their way to make sure everything was to our liking.
Highly recommend!“

“The best macaroni and cheese I've ever had and it's not even close! Amazing ribs and burnt ends!“

“I highly recommend the Triple Threat sandwich! The apple slaw, the pork belly, it is just wonderful. Service was FANTASTIC! From being greeted when we arrived to our impeccable server Brenen who took great care of us, it was all terrific.“

“So it is Monday July 14 and we just left Joe’s BBQ and my wife told me that my BBQ is better the Joe’s any-day. Sunday night we went to Q39 and wow what a difference. My wife and I both had the 3 meat and sides of beans,and vegetables. Every single thing we had was great. Chicken(white meat) had good flavor but chicken is chicken. Sausage was full of flavor with the peppers. Ribs were fall off the bone and didn’t need sauce. The pulled pork was really soft and melted in the mouth good. So at this point I have to say if you are in Kansas City for BBQ go to Q39 last because nothing compares the it at least in Kansas City anyway.“

“Food is really good, I've ordered many times from them but my last order included an $8.25 fee for carry out supplies. They charge a percent of the entire bill. No where in the check out process do they tell you this. This seems excessive for 6 utensil packs and 5 takeout containers. Many other BBQ places with similar price points do not charge this fee. If you are going to charge extra fees be up front about it.“

“Carry out for two and a half. Meat was on point. Fries had good seasoning. I got the Martin city Mayor! Cash money messed up and got a burnt end sandwich…..

No big deal.

The rings were amazing. Lots of sauce to go around. The cheese corn and asparagus were tasty.

Same old stuff. It’s good every time we go.“

“Awesome BBQ joint! Don’t miss this one!“

“We had a great experience today with a work group. The service was fantastic and the food was phenomenal.“

“The best macaroni and cheese I've ever had and it's not even close! Amazing ribs and burnt ends!“

“Thank god they’re back from vacation! I was going through serious withdrawals! It was awesome seeing y’all today, and thank you for the great food and awesome service!“

“I was looking for something different and the brisket Rangoon caught my eye on line and brought me in. The thought of bbq thai fusion was intriguing. I was greeted immediately but was on my own so opted to sit at the bar. The bartender was very knowledgeable about the menu, the food and the business. I told her I had come in for the rangoon and told her I didn’t want straight Thai or straight BBQ but to pick anything she would recommend. I told her I have a high heat tolerance, no weird food allergies and like just about everything. She chose the red curry burnt ends with steamed rice. The manager joined us and we all had great conversation about the food, food in general and their sister restaurant Muni in the River Market. Food, service, presentation and atmosphere were all fantastic. All of the recommendations were spot on. I look forward to my next opportunity.“

“The service was awesome and the food was delicious !! Travels well on the airplane !“

“My parents came from CO to KS to purchase a new car and the guy at the dealership recommended Smoke Town BBQ to them for dinner. They went over and found that it was closed, but Brian was outside and they struck up a conversation. My parents joked that they’d driven all the way from CO for some good BBQ and Brian was kind enough to go inside and bring them out some food to try. Luckily for me, they brought some back to CO to share and even as leftovers the next day, the burnt ends were DELICIOUS!!! What a kind and thoughtful person and business, and delicious food! Thanks for showing my parents such amazing KS hospitality! 💜“

“Don’t sleep on the corned beef burnt ends. OMG! So good! Not a fan of the cheesy corn. It was weirdly sweet and the sauce was king of clumpy/grainy. The fried corn bread bites were tasty, sweet cornbread. We didn’t even think to snap a picture after the first taste of that corned beef!“

“Best of the best! Smoked turkey is in point and if you like pastrami you HAVE to get thier smoked pastrami on seeded rye w saurkraut and mustard.....omg! It's the bbq version of a rueban sandwich and let me tell ya...it's a game changer! 1 sandwich is Enough for 2 people...or 2 meals if you don't want to share :) The manager was so kind, he brought our service dog a bowl of water while we ate. The server and bartender were amazing...
And we didn't even order drinks! They were just a great team over the lunch hour. Thank you Haywards for making our stop enjoyable from start to finish!“

“I have been a wedding DJ for 10 years. That being said, I’ve had a lot of BBQ catered meals😂. This one was hands down one of the top three. Everything from appetizers to meal was top notch!! Highly recommend!!“

“Recently we have had very close friends/family go through difficult times, and I volunteered to get a good dinner meal for a fairly large group of people on short notice due to these circumstances. Obviously I selected J’s having no idea how everything would be except for looking very briefly through reviews. Everyone commented on how wonderful the food was. Most all of them (except me and my folks) live in the Olathe/Overland Park area, and every single family asked where I got the great BBQ. Of course, I let them know … J’s. Needless to say, they will very likely be back to enjoy J’s in the future.
My personal THANK YOU for your help, support, and kindness on such short notice by the entire team! Special Thanks to Zoe (sp?)!“

“Went in to get some food right before the game, super friendly staff and got my food fast 👏🏻 and the food was delicious 😋 👌🏻“

“We held our son’s graduation party out on the patio this past weekend and it was a perfect experience! SO many people raved about the food and the service was great. Would highly recommend!!“

“I just wanted to give a shoutout to Jimmy who was an amazing server today! We love Kpot and will keep coming back.“

“Food and service is amazing!“

“I love it!! Great food, Great Service, and really nice all aground. Will definitely be back.“

“They are rude and yell at you just because but dont let that freak you out Karen...If your from Texas chances are you not gonna like this joint. But you get so much for your money. This place contributes to the waistline of the locals. Some big people are in this fly-over town. The red bbq sauce SUCKS they would hang you in Texas for serving that mess. Overall they do a pretty good job!“

“It was great, but wish they would keep up with the demand for the egg rolls and crab rangoon, please keep that end of the buffet filled.“

“Great service and food was delicious.“

“My mother's favorite Longhorn restaurant. The server remembered all we asked. The food was hot and fresh. Mom always gets the Flo's Filet, and it was cooked perfectly. The only suggestion is that we be given longer to eat our salads, but the restaurant was getting busier, so I'm sure everyone was doing their best. A really lovely experience.“

“Great atmosphere, delicious food and excellent service. Any time we have a special event, this is our choice for dinner. We appreciate that we don’t feel rushed when we come here. We always have so much food that we can’t even eat it all! We get to spend time together, chat and connect over our interactive dinner. We are always telling our friends and family about this place! P.S. make sure you end dinner with a S’more!“

“Absolutely loved it. The service was great! The food was delicious!“

“We went for a birthday dinner. After having a very rough week, our server made our birthday boy's night! It was great service!! Everyone's food was so delicious!!! Their porterhouse steak melted in your mouth.

“Don't ever got here for an holiday!!! They will quote you 2 hours and you'll have to wait 3.5 hours. The hostesses were rude and the management was even ruder. I mentioned needing to get something for my daughter (even if just a roll) since she's diabetic and had to wait extra long. I was told we would just have to wait. We left!“
