I’m gonna go ahead and conjure up this old thread and ask the OP; where all did you end up eating? Thoughts?
-
Reason I ask is we just got back from KC yesterday (Great Wolf Lodge again with the family; we all had a blast.....again!); had Q39 this time, fantastic stuff! We ranked it right up there with Joe’s in the old Sinclair station.
-
Tough to pick one over the other; really just depends on what you order. But, yah can’t go wrong with either!

There is a small family owned Mexican restaurant up in Claycomo that is the absolute best I've ever eaten by a long shot...it's amazing! It is called El Sombrero and you will not regret trying it! For BBQ I prefer Jack Stacks or Gates and Smokehouse as a distant third. Stroud's is a sure bet for fried chicken. I was a KCPD police officer and spent a good part of my career in the Vice Unit. We worked in every area of the city and quickly learned the best places to eat, lol.

My bad. This is a very old post!


I’ll second Gates. And if your able to drive about an hour come to Topeka and eat at Lonnie’s BBQ. Thursday and Friday he has ribs and other days turkey pork and brisket. His cheesy potatoes are great!

Arguably the best BBQ in the state. Doesn’t have that over powering smoke flavor and it’s never dry or chewy. His ribs are hands down the best I’ve had.

PM me if you want directions. He has weird hours and if you want more info pm me.

Drive out to Shawnee for some gas station BBQ at Joe's. Just ask someone at your hotel. They will get you there.

Is this one of the Joe's your talking about the last time I was there it was Oklahoma Joe's sure was some fine dining.

You guys have good taste. Can't go wrong with most of the places listed here. I also loved that someone knew about El Sombrero in the Village of Claycomo!
