Smokehouse Barbecue has been servicing Kansas City since 1987. It opened its doors in Gladstone, Kansas City, Missouri, with one objective in mind: to provide Kansas City customers with the best barbecue and service possible. On a daily basis, Smokehouse Barbecue surpasses that aim by serving only the best hickory-smoked brisket and juicy chicken, as well as delectable spices, sauces, and rubs.

Smokehouse Barbecue Information:
Smokehouse Barbecue is a family-owned Kansas City institution devoted to delighting your family with delectable dishes, fall-off-the-bone delicious meats, big servings, and immaculate service.

In the Kansas City Region, Smokehouse Barbecue has three locations. Smokehouse Barbecue's scrumptious sides have also gotten great praise, including fresh-made coleslaw, smoky, and sweet barbecue beans, and some of the smoothest, richest sauces you'll ever try.

Very good experience, I took my mom who’s 85 out for Valentine’s Day. She ate to her heart’s content. It was very good. The service is always amazing, very attentive and very personable. Cheesy corn is awesome. Overall, a very good night and experience. Definitely worth it to make a reservation on a holiday, especially!

Waitress service was exceptional. Seems to be a little confusion when making a reservation. We had a reservation for 6:30, arrived right about 6:30 and we were told that it would be a 30 minute wait for a table. When I inquired about our reservation, I was told that all the reservations do is tell the cook staff approximately how many to cook for. After asking to see a manager and speaking to him we were seated within 5 minutes.

The food was not very good. Service was “ok”. Restaurant was not even that clean… we were honestly disappointed.

Crispy Sandwich was as awesome as ever! And those beans...fantastic! Only suggestion is to chill the pitchers you put the beer in...the beer gets warm too quick.

While the service was great, the food just didn’t cut it. The meat was dry and the sauce was bland. There was nothing special or exciting about it. The table had a variety of different foods and everyone said the same thing. One of our party had an issue with something in their food that the staff immediately took care of, and very generously, but the quality was not good enough to make us want to come back.

Despite a large choice of different meat taste was nowhere to be found...$2.00 to replace any side by a salad!!! Really??
