Verbatim Comments:

 

*Very good food and the hospitality of Mary make for a great lunch.  Don't miss this one.

*The beans were outstanding and the combo sandwich was great.  The meat was tender and smoked.  It took awhile for everyone to get there food but it would be a place I would go back to and try some other items on the menu.  I always enjoy a mom and pop place over a chain or strip mall BBQ.  It was hot when we went so we stayed inside but in the evening or in the fall they had a nice outside area to eat on the south side. We had 11 people who went and as usual I enjoyed the company.

*I can't remember the last time I gave an 8 rating to a BBQ restaurant!  It was very close to getting a 9!  Jones BBQ is head and shoulders above many we have seen in the recent years.  Definitely take a trip over to KCK to check this place out.  I had a Brisket sandwich/Fries/Beans today.  I can still smell the wood smoke on my shirt and it sure was found in the Brisket and the Beans.  The Brisket was very tender and cooked to perfection.  Beautiful smoke ring.  The Beans, served the right way (in a good portioned serving) were excellent and may be among the very best in KC.  Fries were good and crispy.  Large sized portions all around.  I had one of Dan's Rib Tips and it was outstanding.  Neat atmosphere in this old, small building.  They have a deck for outside eating but it was way too hot today.  One of the owners served our food and she was great.  I'd definitely go back.  Get over and check this place out.

*The generous portion of rib tips I ordered was tenderly cooked and flavorful.  The sauce was tasty but had a bit too much black pepper in it for my liking.  The ambience was comfortable and friendly with both indoor and outdoor seating.  Especially appreciated was the live jazz musician playing over the lunch hour.  The service was paradoxical:  The ladies who run the place need an efficiency expert to suggest how customer ordering can be expedited.  Slow, slow, slow!  However, the women themselves were some of the most delightful restaurateurs that I could ever hope to meet.  Warm and jovial, they make their customers feel as though they are sitting down to a Sunday afternoon family barbeque.  Go to taste the fine food, but stay to meet the engaging ladies.

*Great atmosphere and terrific food.  Sauce was different - sweet and peppery and I liked it.  Several large groups there and service was slow, but worth the wait.  $5.50 for beef sandwich and fries is a good deal.

*The beef was a little tuff.  The sauce needs to be kicked up a notch.  A very friendly staff!!

*We had quite a wait for our food, but it was worth it!  I had the burnt ends.  They weren't too dry and tasted absolutely delicious - maybe the best in KC!

*I had the 2 meat combo plate (brisket and sausage).  The food was great with excellent service (thank you Mary).  I added a side of beans, which I would recommend to anyone.  Some of the BEST beans I have had!

*This is one of my top ten BBQ restaurants in KC.  I had a great combination meat plate with ham and rib tips.  The beans were the best I have tasted since I have been with the group.  Mary, the owner, was very nice and an excellent host.  She had a nice touch with the candy, wet wipes and toothpick tray.  If you haven't visited this place, it is worth the time.

*Been there 4 times in the last month.   No need too say more.
