The menu was varied, and the food was delicious. The prices were average. I expected it to be overpriced, but it was not.

Met fellow co-workers here for one of those 'let's eat together so we can bond' type of dinners. The food did not disappoint, the wait staff handled our table of 12 wonderfully and did I mention the food was excellent? Try Jacks Stacks sampler, it has the burnt ends, a beef rib and pork ribs. The beef rib is akin... More

Definitely a place to go for good BBQ. We had someone in our party with food allergies. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients. She double checked with the kitchen to make sure there wouldn't be any issues. Everyone raves about the cheesy corn there, I'm not a fan of it, but will say the BBQ baked... More

The food is good. Try the onion rings. We felt kind of rushed there. Waiter had not much personality. Place was really crowded. We waited 40 minutes. Needs a bigger bar area.

The onion ring stack reveals something very phallic when you eat your way down. The ribs and burnt ends were awesome and I taught the staff how to make a lemon lime and bitters. Go see if they remember.

Every time I drive through KC I stop at Jack Stacks for BBQ! I've been to so many BBQ joints across the country and I really think Jack Stacks has the best brisket and also the best baked beans I've ever had. I have also been to the Jack Daniels World Championship BBQ Competition in Lynchburg TN and still believe... More

I've stated many times on Tripadvisor that I am a BBQ snob meaning that I'm very picky. Jack Stack hit a home run! This is the second time that I've eaten here but it's been years. Everything was amazing but the Crown Prime Ribs were on of the best things that I've ever had. I can't wait to go back!!

You must start with the onion rings! They may be some of the best we've ever had. Wife had ribs-cant go wrong here. Make sure as one of the sides you order the cheesy corn. You could live on the cheesy corn. Baked beans are excellent and so is the creamy cole slaw. I had the burnt end sandwich and... More

We were in town to celebrate a family members graduation from a nearby university. I made reservations by phone for a private dining room. I finalized the reservation and was told that there was a minimum charge for the room and if we didn't spend the minimum, the difference would be placed on a gift card. Upon arrival the room... More
