    I hadn't had Jack Stack in years, so while in town I decided to order some take out after seeing some interesting dishes on the menu. The cheesy corn is still as tasty as before - I ate it before I could take a picture. I was worried the potato wouldn't be worth the price but it was indeed loaded! And the Brussels sprouts were super flavorful and had a good amount of burnt ends. It was super easy to pick up and was ready fast.

    Their carrot cake is divine!! One of the best I've tried. Aside from that, their service was also great. Our server Sky was super helpful and awesome. She made sure everything was great for us and stayed super attentive. I also really enjoyed their crown prime beef rib and the champagne salad waa fantastic.

    The bbq shrimp app and smoked trout were solid. I like this location. Service was decent, but definitely could have been better.

    Overall great BBQ place. We split the Round Up which comes with pulled pork, turkey, brisket, and spare ribs. Ribs and pulled pork were great. Turkey was plain Jane and the brisket was just fine. Came with coleslaw, beans, and cheesy corn. Beans were great with pork in them. Corn was very cheesy, but could have used a bit more seasoning. Coleslaw came out way before the foods which was odd. Partner liked the coleslaw. Ordered an extra side of cheesy potatoes. That was the best thing there. Service was good for our party of 11. And their sangria is very tasty, but a tad overpriced.

    Brisket and burnt ends!

    My first visit to Lee's Summit, and wow... what a restaurant! If you like barbecue and you don't pay these folks a visit, you are doing yourself a huge disservice. First off, the place is huge. Despite that, it's not too loud, and it's not overwhelming. I really enjoyed the meal here with 4 other business associates. Service was spot on. Really. Our waiter made us feel like we were the most important people in the place. I can't say enough about how important that is, but I'm sure most of you understand that already! I had the brisket and burnt tips, and they were amazing. As a side, the fries were also fantastic, and the barbecue sauce was superb. I don't normally go overboard about dining at a restaurant, but this place deserves every good review it gets. I cannot recommend Jack Stack highly enough. I only wish I didn't live 4 hours away - I'd look forward to going here one a much more regular basis!

    Onion rings were perfectly cooked. Server brought out all 4 bbq sauces to try

    We came to KC for opening day for the Royals 2025 season! Of course you have to do BBQ in KC! I had hear d about Jack Stack before. It never made it there. I loved the restaurant ambiance. It smelled good from outside! I love beef ribs! The flavor was great, but one of the 2 was so fatty, I felt ripped off. I should've asked the server to replace it but I had burnt ends and brisket to eat so chose not to. I loved the 4 different BBq sauces our server let us try. They were all good, the hottest hits you at the back of the throat. My surprise was the hickory beans! The best flavor and meat in them. My hubby pd the +16 for his 2 choice meal and got the crown beef rib. It was full of meat and large. The meat was like having a roast on a bone He added the turkey, but was disappointed in it. A 4 star means we will be back when we're in town!

    Their food and service has been phenomenal, I was visiting and I went to this place twice because of everything. The vibe is great too. I get out of the car and the first thing I smell is the BBQ - wow.

    Jack Stack food is delicious and they have a warm fireplace In the winter! Colin is my server and he served my lunch so fast. Thank you! I like to sit at the bar and watch sports. Today it's golf.

    Food is good as always. My friend from Nashville requested it as her favorite. Service is great and ambiance is very nice.

    We ate here Tuesday, next to a large window with a nice view. We both had the stuffed baked potato with three meats included with all the other good stuff. It was amazing. The service was superb. We will definitely be returning to one of our favorite restaurants. Thank you Jack Stack!

Like another iconic joint in the metro, this one is a former gas station. The brisket at that place is a little bit better. However, everything else that I tried here is spectacular. The sliced brisket was just a little dry. It wasn't bad. The sausage was amazing. It is housemade with green onions and incredible. I generally don't care for sausages that are different, but this one is exceptional and everyone at the table tried it and loved it. The pulled pork was fresh, which is super important and delicious! Wonderful smoky flavor and super tender. They know exactly what they're doing with pork. I'm gonna say that the beans here are the best in the metro. I'm very particular and I don't like beans that are too sweet like Slaps. Those gag me. The Filling Station beans are absolute perfection. Other reviews say the same. The creamy coleslaw was wonderful! My wife put it on her pulled pork sandwich and I had a little bit for dessert because it's sweet. The homemade potato salad was also the best I've had in a long time. We can't wait to return!

I'm left wondering... were we in…read morea parallel universe or something‽‽‽ We stopped in after an appointment I'd had on a Monday in Lees Summit. We decided to have a quick early dinner here in town, and did a Yelp search for "great places to eat near me". This place was high in the list. We read the reviews and found ourselves driving around a building that had ZERO markings for the Burn Theory Fire Kitchen on it, but our Maps app said we were here. Turned out, the food for Burn Theory Fire Kitchen was cooked in a food truck in a parking lot and served inside the Diametric Brewing Company which is located at the address listed for Burn Theory Fire Kitchen. I will say, my husband ordered a special beer called "Cherry Street Wheat" and it was very unusual, and seriously tasty!!! I'm not a beer fan, but would drink one of these any day! So, getting back to the food... we'd both ordered a trio of street tacos that we did a mix and match of with their various proteins. We ordered this way to share with each other. We also love to discover new and unusual bites. After reading the reviews and their menu, we were excited for the promise of something uniquely delicious... and were completely disappointed!!! All but one (excluding the shrimp) of the six different tacos we'd ordered, bordered on the inedible side. The proteins were seemingly overcooked, folded into little leathery tortilla shells, and served to our table cold, dry and tough. They tasted as if they had been reheated from the weekends leftovers. Maybe we came on the wrong day. Perhaps if we'd visited on a weekend, or on the same day they were actually cooking the meats initially, we'd had a better experience. I don't know, and frankly do not plan to find out. Additionally, to be fair, their condiments (ie: the Ketchup and BBQ sauce) seemed to be made fresh and made from scratch. They were sadly the best part of our meal. Honorable mention to the Diametric Brewing Company which served us one of the most delicious and unique beers we've ever tasted!
