Best restaurant in an old gas station. Pulled pork and smoked sausage are my favorites here. The “hog heaven” sandwich is pure bbq happiness.

We stopped here on a road trip, craving Kansas City BBQ. Jack Stack did not disappoint. Service and food were outstanding. Highly recommend the beef burnt tips and cheesy corn. Both outstanding. Appetizer portions are huge. We loved both the fried mushrooms and cornbread. 5 thumbs up!

Local friends took us here and wow, it was delish! Cozy little shack with very nice people working. Service was great! Very interactive neighborly place. When in KC, Barbeque for every meal is par.. so good! Also homemade Cole Slaw that was super!

The well-known fact is that when the Krispy Kreme "HOT" donut sign is lit in the front window, everyone gets a free sample donut. Turns out, it's not always just then that a free KK glazed donut is given to each person. I found that out over the weekend when I stopped in, and it was a nice surprise.
They have the typical donut types, but also additional seasonal flavors as well. I tried a peach-filled donut which was good, along with my frozen caramel latte. Great way to start my morning!

On a Wednesday evening, I had no need to worry about waiting for a table. Later, Sarah, my server, said, "Weeknights are pretty mellow." From what I'd seen online, I'd expected a long wait for food, but a bowl of amazing homemade chicken soup arrived...MoreWe are so pleased to hear about your experience with us, thank you for sharing!

Cafe Provence really has an impeccable reputation throughout Kansas City. After hearing so many wonderful things about the restaurant, I finally had the opportunity to visit myself and now full understand why it one of the city's best. Our group of four had the perfect evening, and plan to make a habit of dining here. First of all, our server, Angus was one of the absolute best host we have ever had. He really went above and beyond to make our dinner outstanding. Although we love wine, we are not as familiar with French selections, yet he directed us to an extraordinary bottle, in fact we ended up having a second. Furthermore, he helped guide us through our menu selections, and we all absoluetly loved what we had. The appetizers, salads, entrees, and desserts were all on par with the finest places that we have dined. In addition, the atmosphere is incredibly charming. I regret that it has taken me so long to visit, however it is undoubtedly my new favorite!

Having lived in Europe 12 years of my life, IKEA is always my mini-European vacation when I'm missing Europe. I have been to Various IKEAs in Germany, I've visited stateside IKEA in Seattle, Atlanta, and Austin area.
I ALWAYS grab something in the restaurant. It has always been amazing and worthwhile until now.
The lines for food were insane!! I've never had that bad of a line.
Then, the food. The meatballs were cold. The server was stingy with the gravy and the lingonberry sauce. The veggies pictured (a variety of beans) were not what we received. We were given a mixture of seasoned veggies which included cauliflower, carrots and a mystery veggie. I should have lived this but the veggies tasted freezer burned and the seasoning was seriously off. Although the food was cheap, this time, it was also worthless.

Not fine dining, but a basic barbecue joint, the way it should be. Good meats and sides, prices acceptable. Easy parking.

Once again, the TripAdvisor scores a home run! First time to Big Bam’s but we’ll be back. Friendly service, clean tables, and great food at reasonable prices. I had their pork tenderloin sandwich and it reminded me of great schnitzels I had in Germany — so tender and flavorful. And yes, I got the tater tots based on fellow TA recommendations. Excellent. Can’t wait to try their other menu items. Highly recommend.

We liked this restaurant so much that we ate here twice during our stay. We were lucky enough to have the same wonderful waitress both times. The food was great and the prices were reasonable for the amount of food that you get. Obviously, I would come here again if I am back in the area.
