Had to have a burnt ends sandwich cause I never heard of one and it was highly recommended by other review sites. $9.00 for chopped up burnt meat on three slices cheap white bread. Ordered 1 soda with it the total was 12.00 . The meat was very good they really know how to cook it . The sauce was... more

This is one of the best, 'non francised' BBQ restaurants in town. It is a true 'BBQ joint' if you know what i mean...old, smokey, not fancy, and great tasting BBQ. I give it a 4.5 on taste, as the food is smoked thru and thru, and the sauce adds nicely. It is quite expensive. A bbq sandwich, which comes... more

We hit several bbq joints on our KC trip. LC's was very good, loved the atmosphere. It felt like what KC BBQ should be. The service was the friendliest we had on the trip and the burnt ends were very good (not quite as good as AB's however) all in all worth stopping in, very tasty. more

Don't pay attention to the bad decorations, you arnt eating it and its not the reason you are here. I will say it is pricy, and a little difficult to order from the menu. But it is never a hit and miss, everytime it is great. I prefer the pork and the brisket is very tender. I love this place... more

I was visiting Kansas City for a couple days. As a foodie, there was not question that I was going to eat BBQ while in a city known as the BBQ mecca. So, I came to Tripadvisor to find the highest-rated BBQ in KC. We went on Wednesday evening and I was suprised how empty the place was at dinner... more

Best BBQ by far- when we go back home to Indiana we always buy some and share with the family! It is a little expensive, but the meat is fresh and tasty and TENDER - the sauce is good enough to drink and the BBQ beans are out of this world thick and full of chunks of meat. The neighboor... more

My wife and I recently visited LC's Bar-B-Q on Blue Parkway in Kansas City. I made a trip to the Kansas City area last year to visit some of the area's best-known barbecue places and wanted to see how this one compared. LC's definitely ranks way up there among the best-known names in Kansas City barbecue, including Arthur Bryant's, Rosedale,... more

Awesome!

Based on research done on tripadvisor prior to our trip, we decided to try this restaurant. My husband had an order of short end ribs + a small container of baked beans. I ordered a beef bbq sandwich which came with fries (my hubby & I split it) and I also got the baked beans. With a gatorade and a... more

If you like little hole in the wall resturants and hate chains, then this is the place for you. The BBQ is tremendous. It is located just past a scenic little bridge and you can see the smoke bellowing out of the place. They have a nice big flat screen TV and we watched some college fball as we ate.... more

I have eaten at lc's about 6 times spread out over about 12 years. overall I think they have the best rib and beans in kc if you catch them on a good day. I've also eaten there when it was somewhat mediocre. For burnt ends give me Arhur Bryants but if you catch lc on the right day you... more
