20 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Olathe

“The long lines are awesome, they move pretty fast … It is well worth the wait in line! The best bbq ever !!! Hands down red beans and rice was delicious 🤤 Go get some !!!“

“Very elegant atmosphere. The staff was warm and friendly…. The perfect place to have ambience.“

“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!!“

“We’ve visited here twice in the past two weeks. Our 1st meal was their amazing Friday night prime rib deal. It was worth every penny, and we couldn’t get enough of the smoked Aggies. On our 2nd visit, we tried the Spicy Chicken Clucker sandwich, and the owner recommended the white cheddar mac and cheese, which was fantastic. Their corn muffins are our son’s favorite, so we had to order extra for him. The owner is very friendly and very passionate about his food. We can’t wait to come back and try more food.“

“Amazing Burnt Ends. Their catering staff was awesome,“

“We had these guys cater our wedding in April. John was on top of everything from the initial phone call, to the details the day of the wedding and everything in between. John showed up early, had everything ready to go & managed his part of our evening perfectly. I wouldn’t hesitate to have him do another event with us. Oh…..and our guests went on and on and on about the food all night too!! If I could go above 5 stars I would. Well done John, well done!!👏🍺👏“

“I got the sirloin and shrimp combo. The host and waitress were amaizng. It was my birthday. The ice cream was great and on the house. I have my birthday there almost every year. I'm a carnivore and I know it is safe for me to eat there even if I have the allergies that I have. Side note: they also had the building at the perfect temperature, it warmed me up. It was the coldest day.“

“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!“

“Food was amazing! 1000/10! Definitely worth the 7hr drive“

“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.“

“The ribs are so so good! Delicious!😋“

“We don't get out to K & M often, but thoroughly enjoy it when we do. I had the combination dinner with brisket and turkey, with cole slaw and cottage cheese for my sides. Service is always fast and friendly, the decor cute and homey with a western feel. Great sauces, pork tenderloins, and onion rings, too! I generally don't need this much sauce, but I was really feeling the spicy sauce today, don't judge 😂.“

“We tried Moose’s BBQ for the first time today. We loved it!!! I had the pulled pork and burnt ends with cole slaw and baked beans. The meat was tender and flavorful, the beans had a little heat at the end, it was good! Oh, I can’t leave out the cowboy bites, OMG! If you’re in Gardner, and you’re in the mood for BBQ, this is your place, no need to leave town. The only down side is their hours. Th-Sat 11a-7p. We will be back!“

“the brisket and BBQ sauce are 🔥🔥🔥 had low expectations since they had no people in line. I eat brisket often and these guys are easily top 10 if not top 5 of brisket I've had“

“What you would expect from a great concept that has been over commercialized. Dealing with success is hard. Food was good and creative. Given the popularity I am glad I can say I have been but I won't rush back. There are lots of great eating experiences in the greater KC area to try out first. Net, net it was perfectly fine end to end“

“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 !“

“We were in town for a wedding and were blown away by the delicious burnt ends, onion rings, bbq sauce and flavorful rub. The owner was exceptionally hospitable and passionate in sharing his cooking methods. His pride in delivering a high quality product was evident in his words and in the fabulous meal we enjoyed. We wish we lived locally so we could come back again soon!“

“Lord have mercy folks. When I tell yall this place is off the chain, believe me. From the time I arrived I met the owner Mr. Steve Zarda & he greeted me and treated me like a life-long friend of his. That alone made my day as a Trucker bcuz sometimes we get treated like dirt out here. We talked outside as I was about to come in & he started walking with me as I told him I was from Big D Dallas and I was stopping by to check this place out. Not knowing i was walking & talking with the owner of Zarda the whole time. He allowed me to tell him how I was sitting n my big truck checking out the reviews of this place & the reviews were great. He kindly smiled and said, Hi, my name is Steve Zarda and I'm the owner. I was blown away folks bcuz he was outside washing the pad around the drive thru & the back door. Now I'm really, really impressed with him as a man & his work ethics as mine. Well we proceeded inside & it was very, very clean, nicely decorated, a pleasant, comfortable atmosphere to be in. Mr. Zarda introduced me to his entire staff which were some of the nicest, coolest, professional young people I've seen n a long time on a job folks. Nobody was texting & half ignoring me as a customer. They were all so nice, knowledgeable of the menu and anxious to help me. That made my day all the way. Mr. Zarda said since this is your first time here I'm going to take care of U. And lord knows he did just that folks. They made sure I was totally and completely happy, full & complete. Lol.. I couldn't eat all that food but I definitely took my to go bag like a champ. The food was to die for folks, the ribs were smoked perfectly & falling off the bone, all the 3 different beans i tried were unbelievable to the taste buds, the onion rings were fried to perfection with a light crunch & the beef & pork burnt ends were just right, they melted n yo mouth with a edge of crunchyness. All I can say is this folks, this is truly, truly my new found BBQ place in Lenexa, KS. Whenever I'm trucking thru here. Just to know I have a place to stop away from home & I'm treated like a dear friend Instead of a customer by the owner & all his staff from front to back, hell that alone is worth my time, money & support folks. I'm asking all my friends, family members, my biker community and all my truckers who come thru Kansas, please stop here & check them out folks. You'll be glad u did & you'll thank me later. Much love, props & hella respect to the owner Mr.Steve Zarda & his entire staff at this location. Sir yall truly made a old tired trucker day a special one sir. I'll see yall soon bcuz i pass thru here twice a week. God bless each of U until we meet again. Big Dave the trucker aka Mr. Krazy-Man 815 aka Mr. Chicago... from Big D. DALLAS.. 10 TO THE FOE.. I'M GONE.. SHO NUFF“

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

“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!“
