“Absolutely Amazing! This is the best bbq I have ever had from a restaurant hands down. I got the brisket sandwich with a side of beans and I can not wait to try everything else on the menu. Even the pickles are Amazing. You have to try this place for yourself. You won't regret it.“

“I cannot rave about how delicious this bbq place is! My husband and I flew into town from Savannah GA. And I wanted to bring something to our family dinner. Mr. Gerald was so kind to reply and fulfill my request. My family from the Grandview and Raymore area were so surprised how I found such a delicious place! Thank you Mr. Gerald for making me the "star" of the family 🙏🏼“

“I have to say 100 out of 10 starts!!!!! A friend asked me if ive ever been, said never heard of this place. Well i ordered the 3 meat 3 side platter, got the burnt ends, brisket and ribs with beans, slaw and jazzy fries. Only thing I didnt really like was the slaw but everything else hands down was AMAZING!!!! The burnt ends just melt in your mouth, that jazzy sauce is addictive and they have a really good honey mustard as well. Also got the friend mushrooms, they use portobello mushrooms and they are a 10 out of 10 with the in house made ranch...... I will be going back, and it has me wanting this place over Jack stack and I grew up on Jack stack.“

“I've been in KC for 26 years, and this is hands down the best. The meats, the sides, ALL amazing. The sausage is off the hook too. Get there early because they sell out daily.“

“Food, service & atmosphere was amazing. Our server was the best ever. We were at another location without a reservation and told 2 hour wait. We ended up being lucky and finding this location and snagging a reservation for 30 min later.“

“Love the increasing public awareness here! Really good sides, be nice to add fried mushrooms, hint hint.
Good portions, ribs are amazing and burnt ends a favorite. Cookie to top it off and nice meal. Now stroll the marketplace booths!
Update 12/16/25
Thanks for adding mushrooms! However 6 as a side is hardly enough to call it a side… up the game 10-12 makes it a side I would say…
Otherwise meal was top notch tonight!“

All the sides were amazing and the meat was super tender and delicious. I was so glad that we were able to enjoy such a good meal at our wedding! The owner was also super responsive to any emails and questions I sent him. Can’t recommend enough!“

“I had low expectations for this joint as it was recommended to me by a co-worker with pretty bad taste. I tried it anyways and boy was I surprised. This was the best pulled pork I've had and I've lived in KC long enough to try most all of the BBQ.
Parking: much park!

“Our hotel contact recommended Gates BBQ. We had a long wait to get in because it seemed like we got behind 30 state troopers! They were very nice and apologetic. We walked up to the counter to order two smoked turkey sandwiches. They were "doubles"so the sandwiches were very thick. The sauce was a perfect ten. Sweet tea was perfect. $42. Not much in the way of atmosphere-just real bbq.“

“Update 6 years later. 2025. Still great food/atmosphere/and service. Got the same plate. Ribs are so damn good. Sausage great. Brisket is good, but o prefer thicker slices. Shaved brisket you lose a lot the juicy fat I look for it a brisket. This great for a sandwich but on a plate I prefer thicker slices. But still great flavor. Great smoke ring. Glad Joe's is still going great!!
Not sure why they dont advertise as Joe's BBQ. But either my first experience was a good experience. Ribs, brisket. And sausage. Bbq beans. Everything was great I like their sauces the traditional has that perfect balance of sweet and spice. Their spicy sauce hits ya a couple minutes later. Love that. But once again a perfect balance, nothing to overpowering. I'll be back. The restraunt has a great atmosphere good music. I'll be back next time I am in town.“

“Everything was amazing! We had a beef Nooner and a chicken link all under $30. The service was incredible. The staff was so friendly and helped us pick what to order and checked on us throughout our meal. Their best kept secret is chicken wings. You must buy their sauces and rubs. This was an awesome experience!“

“One of the only places I will eat a steak that I didn't cook. Out of all the years eating here they have never over cooked a steak. I cant say that for the other steak houses in the area. Services is always perfect. Always one of my first choices when deciding where to eat.“

“We went the Saturday before the Super Bowl, and it was fantastic. Service was quick and so kind; I unfortunately don't remember his name, but he gave my husband and I to go drinks without us asking. The food was delicious; we shared our two entrees and still left with food. Would highly recommend!“

“We always enjoy visiting Bar Central before theater performances at the Music Hall, and appreciate being able to make a reservation. HOWEVER, this past Saturday, when we arrived, there was no host/ess, just a sign to seat ourselves. The bar was packed but there was one table for four available so we didn't have a problem. We're hoping this was a one-time thing and reservations will be possible in the future. Thank you.“

“Well it seems like it's the same restaurant before it burned down but got a little pricier for the amount of barbecue you get. Also, it could be a little easier to get your sauce and don't you do refills on your drinks anymore? You think you would at $3.50?“
“I love how it's always so festive! the food was beyond top tier! omg! the ladies were super amazing. I really appreciated you all today. I actually needed the kindness you showed. thank you! also the French fries were so good. no one in the world can compare!“
