Jack Stack Barbecue - Lee's Summit

This was my first time at this location. The server, Suzette was amazing 🤩. She took really good care of us. The food was delicious 😋. They brought my Husband another baked potato because his was not hot enough and me more fries because mine were not hot. Suzette even gave us peach lemonade to go. I loved my raspberry lemonade. Yummy 🤤. We'll definitely come here again. A+. 😉

I had forgotten how good Jack Stack is. We recently moved to MO and wanted BBQ. It’s restaurant week so my husband ordered the special. Everything was exceptional. He typically doesn’t like baked beans but thoroughly enjoyed them. I did my typical turkey sandwich and a loaded baked potato. Again superb! Skye was our server. She was engaged, personable and professional. Perfect combination to a great dining experience. Even the to go brownie was delicious and since it’s sold cold the ice cream stayed frozen to enjoy at home. This was our first time at this location, we will be back!! Plenty of parking and clean bathrooms.

We thoroughly enjoyed our special night out. Our server, Tracey, made it great. She was so approachable, honest with her recommendations, and enjoyable. I finally tried the Crown Prime Beef Rib (massive and the most tender!) and it was excellent. My husband was elated to finally (6 years later) have their hickory smoked beans again and they still take the top slot for best beans ever.

The food was fantastic, the prices are okay except for the side items. The coleslaw was fabulous but was it worth $5 for four bites? The Big Pig was delicious, and although a bit pricy as well, the onion rings were great. Skye was fabulous and really fun to chat with, and although it was a busy Friday night, she still took the time to answer our questions and was not impatient. Making a reservation is your best bet.

I am impressed! We opted to go big and try a little bit of everything, and it was ALL great. The baked beans are some of the best I've had, and we really enjoyed the lamb ribs. We certainly had enough for multiple people and took quite a bit home for lunch the next day.

Got an opportunity to eat here while traveling with my son. Their menu had several selections that we often cannot find at our local BBQ joints. Specifically a pic 3 combo platter that you can choose Beef, Lamb, and pork baby back ribs with side of potato salad. The pics and my description could not do it justice. I’m told by locals this is the second best place in KC for BBQ. I can’t imagine better but who knows. You definitely get your money’s worth and the food is delicious. Almost forgot the large fried mushrooms. Excellent starter.

This place is always consistent. Management and staff are the best. One of our favorites is the burnt end stew, but actually we've never had a bad meal or service here. The Manager even stops by to make sure everything was good.

Debra and I met our son and daughter-in-law at this Jack Stack location this past Sunday to enjoy dinner and some fellowship.
When we are in town, I always try to dine at Jack Stack at least once, to get my barbecue fix.
I’ll just put it out there, jack stack that has the best beans that I have ever had. I’ve been to a lot of barbecue across the nation, and no one does beans like jack Stack truly, you could make a meal of the beans there is so much chopped meat included.
We did not have a reservation, stepped to the greeting podium, announce that we needed a table for four, and immediately were seated.
The host let us know who are weight staff would be, Tracey, and within a few minutes, she was there to greet us.
She was a Lotta fun, anticipated, or needs, always kept our glasses refilled, and was quick with mutually engaging banter.
I always have the burnt ends with both beef and pork, a side of beans, and a side of coleslaw I was not disappointed! Frankly, that is one of the best meals!! Both the beef and pork have the right amount of fat, because you know, the fat is where the flavor is at! They are tender, great for dipping in the sauce, Yum!
Debra had the brisket on a sandwich, and the kids both enjoy their meals.
if you have a taste for barbecue, Jack Stack is where it is at! It is a Kansas City icon, and for great reason, they have a great product, service is always good, and the environment and the atmosphere is engaging !

An early birthday lunch. In the mood for bbq. Had originally thought of trying someplace new but every place I wanted to try was closed on Sundays, so we opted for reliable Jack Stack. Pork burnt ends were a bit dry but the brisket and beef Burnt ends were excellent. Fries were nice and crisp.
Always love the fried mushrooms with horseradish. Our server, Tracey, was fabulous and anticipatory of our needs. Didn't have to ask for a thing. Certainly satisfied my bbq cravings.

We enjoyed dinner at ‘Jack Stack Barbecue,’ Lee’s Summit. The Pulled Pork was great - tender and flavorful, with a side of ‘Hickory Pit Baked Beans’ (Oh yeah). The sliced Beef Brisket was great, with a distinctive hickory bbq flavor. Did I mention the ‘Pork Spare Ribs?’ Tender, flavorful and served with extra ‘Jack Stack’ bbq sauce. The ‘Cheesy Potato Bake’ was also great - prepared just right. Even the basics like the French fries were just right. For starters we sampled the ‘Jalapeño Corn Bread,’ served warm with butter. Enjoyed this meal with a Miller Light.

The evening we stopped in the restaurant was busy, yet after just a brief wait we were seated. Our server was responsive, knowledgeable and efficient. Our ‘Jalapeño Corn Bread’ arrived first - warm from the kitchen. Our food followed with each dish well prepared. Several large groups were seated nearby, but noise was not a distraction due to the restaurant layout and acoustics.

After our dinner, these two tourists from Las Vegas returned to the Jack Stack restaurant in Lee’s Summit for dinner and lunch two more times - the food and service was THAT good.

I love coming to this Jack Stack because it’s just so good. This time was so amazing I’m reviewing again. We were served by Tracey who has such an amazing personality and is so attentive. She was able to determine our needs before we even knew them. On top of that the food is delicious, as always. Tracey recommended to have my favorite, the cheesy potato bake, with sour cream and she was RIGHT! It’s so good! Highly recommend you come to get great food and great service.

First time ever having jack stack.
First I would like to start out with .
Our server Ryan was the best experience and food iv had for the longest.. for $50 my wife and I only had the que for 2 round up. The table looked like we was having a feast!
More then plenty of food. Tried the carrot cake and had a great time and experience. Everyone was so friendly. The food came out fast also!
There's nothing negative I could say. I even got lucky and got front parking. 😆

My wife and I hail from Houston and in Texas and in certain crowds I could be considered a pit master.

My son lives in KC area and I’ve tried nearly every bbq joint in KC. Jack Stacks is among the best I’ve had. I have to say though that our waitress Cristina made the whole experience awesome! The place was packed and we all agreed that she is one of the best waitresses we’ve ever experienced anywhere we’ve dined and we’ve dined at some of the best restaurants around the USA! She was simply incredible!

We ordered mushrooms and corn bread as appetizers and did the Jacks Best with extra prime smoked beef ribs. The beef ribs in single word are awesome! Sorry the pics were an after thought except the carrot cake and triple fudge brownies. Highly recommend Jacks if your looking KC BBQ. If your dining in ask for Christina

Hands down the best BBQ in my life!

Tender, juicy, flavorful meat that melted in my mouth. My favorites were the prime rib and the burnt end beef. Can’t recommend it enough if you want to have a proper Midwest experience!

It was the best barbecue I have ever had. The jalapeno corn bread was so delicious. The meat was so tender.

Great service and the food was awesome. Get the baked beans, could be the best on the planet. If we are ever in KC we shall return!! Great KC bbq sauce.

Great BBQ, service, and atmosphere. This is more of an upscale BBQ restaurant. Small servings of the sides, but they are good.
The restaurant, restrooms, employees, and parking are all clean. The area is safe. It is usually pretty busy, but I usually get seated quickly.
Overall, it is a great place for a business associate for a date, friends hanging out, out of town guests to experience KC BBQ.

Great atmosphere! Our customer service was amazing, I think our waitress was Evelyn. She was one of the best waitress I’ve had for a long time! You get great portions here as well!

I ordered carryout because I was taking it to an out of town family member who loves Jack Stack and was celebrating a special occasion. When I got home I realized that it didn't include condiments and instructions for reheating. (I ordered the cold and reheat). I called the restaurant and spoke with the manager. I explained that I've ordered several times and never had a poor experience. But I wanted to let him know that it was missed. He graciously sent me a gift card. This is the kind of exceptional service and food that keeps me recommending Jack Stack to everyone. (Even on my flight home I sat with a fellow passenger and she asked me which bbq place she should try and of course I told her Jack Stack).

Excellent BBQ, with flavors in the meat so delicious that sauce wasn't even necessary! The cole-slaw was super fresh, light, and refreshing. The fries were light and crunchy, and the salad dressing on the spinach salad was unique, with sweet, sour, and savory playing nicely together.

Every meat selection was delicious. The cheese corn was delightful, and very filling. The pickles are amazing, and should be available for sale separately. The baked beans were very good, although could have used a richer flavor of molasses and/or bacon. All sauces were tastey, but trended to the brighter more tomato side, instead of darker smoke/molasses/spice side.

Absolutely no complaints. Service was fantastic, our drinks were never empty, and everything was prompt. Very highly recommend!!!
