This place is amazing. We had Jimmy guiding us through our meal and he did us right. All of his recommendations were spot on. And we will definitely be back when we’re in town. The food service and atmosphere. were all incredible. A special thank you to Jimmy who made the experience amazing.

Pork belly was excellent, brisket burnt ends were nothing special. Thats the reason for the 4 star. Service was great, prices were reasonable. Definitely try the pork belly.

I was really disappointed in the quality and flavor of the food. I ate at 8pm on Wednesday night.
I had the burnt ends appetizer some brisket some pork belly. The brisket tasted like pot roast and the pork belly was under cooked. Neither had a smokey flavor.
I also had the Gladstoner sandwich, the sliced turkey and ham were good, again no smokey flavor, but the hoagie roll was cold, only the top was light toasted.
The fries were mediocre at best.
I was really looking forward to KC BBQ, I chose poorly this night.

It was good. Service was great. Huge portions of food. Got the burnt ends platter. In hindsight, I would split it.

We got put in a back corner behind the bar, and so our server was busy with other tables further away, and didn’t always get to us in a timely manner. It wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t the service I’m used to from this place.

I hate being negative in any of my reviews, but I also have to be honest. In my opinion this place was a mediocre example of Kansas City BBQ. The food wasn't horrible, but nothing stood out. It was all straight down the middle okay. With all the powerhouse BBQ joints in Kansas City area I'll spend a few more minutes driving and go right by this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ordered 2 rib and brisket combination plates with baked beans and supposedly white cheddar Mac n Cheese plus a burnt ends and Mac plate for wife.... As a owner/chef, I wouldn't allow these plates to leave kitchen on appearance, super sauced to hide reheating and age or meats. We left plates no complaining, paid and went to Buffalo Wild Wings across street to eat and go to hotel. Waitress was cool and the loaded nachos appetizer was OK. This was disappointing to say least traveling from south Mississippi. Pictured is how we left full plates...🥴😪🥴😪

This was our first time at this location and it was great. Highly recommend the beef short rib.

Audrey took amazing care of us this evening. Super special server and treated us like family. Hungry. Family. Food was great and she made our night !

Great server, but lower quality cuts of meat and sub par BBQ sauces used. Shrimp skewers (6 shrimp on the skewer) were not that large plus they seemed (to at least me) to be of equal quality to what a frozen shrimp is, and the seasoning was not great. Told server it was not good, and all we got was a 15% discount on that item. I am from New York, back home, the item would have been comp'd, esp considering the shrimp skewer was $16. As for the main course, smokey flavor not deep across the meats and the cuts were lower quality. If you must have BBQ go to Q39, it's night and day.

My second time ordering and kind of disappointed this time around. The beef burnt ends were extremely dry the I couldn't eat them. I don't live close enough to drive back to the place so I wasted money. I'm not willing to give them another try. Very disappointed..

Good Kansas City BBQ.
