Ordered doordash so no comment on service/atmosphere but our food was absolutely disgusting. Both meats tasted like they were microwaved and neither had any smoke flavor. I literally spent $75 (after fees and tip to doordash -food was $50 for two plates) for meat we threw in the trash after 1 bite.

First time sitting at the bar to order. The service was a little disorganized but extremely nice and friendly. Both bartenders were serving us so there was some confusion which caused us to wait. The lights at the bar were so bright I needed to move to a different seat but the bartender turned them down for us. The food was just ok and the portion on the fish sandwich was a bit small. Overall, I probably won’t go out of my way to go back but might stop back by if I was nearby.

It was 7:30-ish and ordered the platter for 2 with ribs, pulled pork, and 2x brisket. When the baked beans are far better than the meat, you have a problem. Customers that visit on a Tuesday night should get the same quality that everyone gets. Not reheated, dry (old tasting) meats from the previous weekend. Should have known when we arrived and the place was empty…What a shame. We used to takeout-of-towners here since the late 80’s to introduce them to great KC BBQ.I’m done.

STOP PARTICIPATING IN DOOR DASH!! This particular restaurant has ZERO priority for Doordash orders. They're literally the last orders made. I walked in, told them I was picking up an order, and watched as five people came in behind me, and picked up MUCH LARGER orders than mine. Poorly managed is an absolute understatement. This place has cost me a lot of money waiting on orders. It's called Doordash, not Door sit and wait 20 minutes for an order to get made.
