    We’ve been to Meat Mitch multiple times. This time we came for my birthday meal. We used the online seating option and our table was ready as soon as we pulled in the parking lot. All the food was fantastic. Dutch was a great server. Hands down we will be back again.

    First time here and with so many BBQ options in KC, hadn't hit our rotation but shame on us because it should have been long ago. Very kind people, great food, and lots of options and specials. The burnt end corn dog is a must but we were pleasantly surprised by how good the hot honey chicken was, especially for the price, and the birria bowl was another that I didn't see coming but loved. Better late than never but so glad to have such a great option to run to!

    The lunch Waitress, who is working the bar was absolutely amazing! Not once did I have to ask her anything or look for her. This was on October 28. I didn’t catch her name but definitely give some of the best customer service I’ve had in a long time. She was very helpful in explaining to me about all the sauces. I’ll be back to try more stuff soon. I didn’t take advantage of the taco Tuesday stuff, but I did try one of the lunch specials the turkey sandwich.

    Stopped in for lunch to try out for the 1st time. Spacious spot with really good indoor and outdoor seating areas. A full bar for seating inside with lots of TVs. Ordered the all star platter with pork spare ribs, and jalapeno-jack sausage for the 2 meats, with potato salad and jalapeño cheesy corn as the sides. All of the food was really good. Ribs in particular. Multiple options on sauces as well. Service was excellent. Riley waited on me and was very attentive and personable. Great waitress. Will definitely be back to try some other items on the menu.
