Food and Drink J. Gilbert's Is It any good? - Page 3

Is it?

**Bearcat** · 06-04-2021, 11:32 AM

I think the Majestic was better years ago before the closing and reopening, but mostly because they took away a couple of my favorites... I think it's still excellent overall though, and the combo of their food, wine selection, and jazz club is hard to beat. I'm biased though, since I worked there long ago and it was by far my favorite restaurant job.

I've never been to J Gilbert's, but should probably try it sometime.

We'll be staying in Overland Park so what's the best BBQ place near 435 & Metcalf?

There's a Joe's on Nall (Roe maybe) and that's definitely it

Wife and I ate at Morton's in Chicago last weekend.

WTF they are all gone? I loved Plaza III

**Bearcat** · 06-04-2021, 12:02 PM

Just go to KC Joe's several times.

And I guess Q39.

And it's not BBQ, but the other place I lead people to is Twisted Fresh for their mahi mahi tacos... there's one in OP somewhere.

Been to the one in Omaha and was happy with it.

There's a Q39 about 115th and Antioch, a Joe's at 119th, just a block or so east of I-35 and another one at about 117th and Roe. If you like dry rub, there's a place called Brobecks on Indian Creek Parkway, just off Roe. If you want old school, there's a Gates about 104th and Stateline Rd.. Just my opinion, but Joe's has the best ribs around and the brisket at Gates is hard to beat.

We're about to peel out and head that way. Thanks for the feedback!

I recently discovered Brobecks. Holy **** is it good. Smoked meat doesn't get much better than that.

You buy 3 individuals ribs from them (they always throw an extra 1 or 2) for like $8, get some fries, and it's a great meal for a very reasonable amount of money.

Joe's is still undefeated, IMO. Just sucks that unless you go there at an awkward time, you're going to be waiting in line for a while.

Stockhill used to have the best Wagyu steak in the city until they sold it to some other company. It still retains it's name but the food - specifically the steak - is no where near as good.

Mowing their lawns 5 times a week and eating dinner at 630pm. Nothing white people love to do more than that.

Truth. Sounds strange for a BBQ place, but their Ham Salad Sandwich is outstanding.
