American Way Smokehouse - Kansas City BBQ

Food I was given was pretty good. However I ordered my food with a gluten free bun due to an allergy. After ordering and paying. An employee told me that they were out of gluten free buns. So I got my sandwich without any bun at all. Later at home when viewing my receipt I was charged extra for the gluten free bun but was never reimbursed the charge. My companions food came out about 10 minutes before my and the employee told me that the kitchen was still making my sweet potato fries. I am old school and think the meals at a table should come out together with the kitchen holding the all ready prepared food under a warmer until all food is ready. My companion had onion rings that were cold even though they came out first. We sat at one of the few tables that were not dirty the paper towel roll on the table only had 2 towels left. The regular barbeque sauce bottle at their sauce island was empty. The barbeque meat was the tasty but that was about it.

Food was good, the BBQ sauce is a little on the sweet side. Friendly staff. Fair prices. All the chairs are very small, narrow folding chairs that larger people will feel nervous about sitting on. The cookies they bake there are incredible. We really liked the snickerdoodles and the gluten-free peanut butter cookies. Plenty of room for larger groups of people. Definitely worth checking out! 40% of the U.S. population is obese, so having at least some bigger, sturdier chairs would be helpful so we can bring our bigger friends with us.
