Arthur Bryant's Barbeque

Best Kansas City BBQ! The sauce is so unique and unlike any of the others. They give you big portions and it is in a historic space that hasn't changed since at least the 70s. Al over the wall you can see pictures of past Presidents and celebrities who visit when they come to KC. This is a real bbq spot, not a big chain that is placed in the newest trendy area. Gotta love it.

They have good barbecue. Their original barbecue sauce is on the spicy side. The building is old. The restaurant overall definitely needs an update. The floors were so slippery close to the bathrooms I thought I was going to fall. If you’re looking for good barbecue only it’s a nice place to go. If you’re looking for good barbecue and a nice restaurant to have dinner with a date go somewhere else.

Still the only BBQ place I've ever been where when you order a brisket sandwich you've got at least two meals. And it's not just the volume. It. Is. Amazing! Going there this weekend I realized that there is something about that original sauce that pairs with the brisket to create a flavor profile that is unmatched. Like a fine wine. Won't even waste my time going to the other places in town. I'm sure they are great, but we're talking about Arthur Bryant's here.

Proof that an actual BBQ pit helps make better BBQ. Huge portions, great flavor, historic location, what's not to love?

The beef (sliced brisket) is better if you allow them to include the point as well as the flat. The flat is more lean, but the fat in the point brings the flavor (pay attention BBQ secret) don't cheat yourself don't ask for lean.

The fries are the best. The only sauce I like is the original. I have heard it is a version of Perry's sauce the original KC BBQ maven.
