Great verity makes it hard to order even the staff recommendations were all over the menu from BBQ, Steaks, and Seafood. We went with the following. The prime rib was tough to cut with a knife but the au jus saved the plate. The burnt ends were good the meat lacked a unique Smokey flavor that I like. The sliced turkey had me seeing lunchables. The creamy cheese corn was a let down. Slaw was average and the beans saved the sides. Overall mediocre at best. Hi ChaseCarver! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Sounds like we left something to be desired during your last visit. If you're open to it, we'd like an opportunity to make this right for you! We've escalated this review to our Overland Park Restaurant team.

Had the BBQ pulled pork, chicken and the chipotle sausage. (they had run out of the ribs.) Pulled pork and the chicken were very tasty and provided an ample amount of food. The sausage was not as good. The beans were in a watery sauce instead of a thicker more savory sauce. Good beer selection, especially of local beers. Service was timely and food was delivered quickly. Big dining room that was a bit loud. Boxy restaurant with little sound absorbing features. Overall, the BBQ sauce was good, but I like Memphis BBQ sauce better.

We try and visit this restaurant on a weekly basis, because they have some of the best sandwiches and burnt ends in our area â¦. along with some baked beans and fat French fries, we always feel like we are splurging, while still on our budget. Nice, family oriented place, clean but not too fancy.

The Lenexa Community Center is in the midst of a building boom. I'm excited about having more restaurants and shops on this side of town. It's also the future site of the Lenexa Public Library.The Public Market is located just below the City Hall. Getting to it from the parking garage without taking steps is a little tricky.I had heard about this place from a couple people and decided to try it out. The atmosphere was good, but the Public Market in itself appears to be in the early stages of something good. There are a few eating places: Topp'd (pizza, salad and grinders), Madman's (BBQ, Chili Dogs, tacos and the most important--Nitrogen frozen ice cream), Chewology (dumplings, noodles rice), The Roasterie Café and a couple local vendors selling tamales, baked goods and gifts.The Cons are that the place does seem to not be filling its full potential of having more vendors. Some of the food prices are higher than I would pay on a regular basis.Service at Topp'd on Sunday was a little....disinterested, shall we say?THe Pros: I love the sunny, laidback atmosphere. There are games on the tables, encouraging you to hang out while you eat or have coffee. When the weather gets warmer, the outside tables will get full use. Yes, you can get alcohol. There was a sign for a winery, but I was not sure if they were part of Chewology, or a ghost vendor. They were advertising Happy Hour, so I'm sure they exist, but I could not see them or know how to order. Nitrogen frozen ice cream is fun to watch and fast. Coffee-Nutella flavor--Yum.I fully support this new endeavor. Part of me will mourn the available space when it gets more popular. The other part wants to see more stores and to get closer to the Public Market in Philadelphia which is much bigger, but hopping with different food vendors including fresh meats and produce.What would I wish this space had more of? Can the upstairs space do cooking demos more often?More vendors: I felt a little bad for the two local outfits who did not have as fancy displays or signs. The Bakery was outshone by the baked goods display at The Roasterie.Fresh Flower/Fresh fruit market would be lovely. Maybe a Doughnut Place. A hot Dog stand (one of those rolling carts that could move and not have to have a permanent sign or corner). Maybe offer some food truck vendors a couple rotating spaces so we can have more variety--Mexican, Thai, Mediterranean, etc.Try it out. Support Lenexa!
