Taste of Kansas City BBQ and Grill

Prospect Avenue's generous neighborhood grill
Taste of Kansas City BBQ and Grill is a barbecue restaurant in Kansas City, MO. Listed categories include barbecue, restaurant.
Taste of Kansas City is a Prospect Avenue counter built on comfort, a lunch-first neighborhood grill that keeps the southeast side fed Tuesday through Saturday. It trades polish for portion size—this is a place you go when you want a lot of smoked meat and none of the fuss that comes with a fancier room.
The menu leans hard into hand-food: smoked sausage on a bun, a pork grilled cheese you won't find at a traditional pit, a smoked turkey sandwich, and a two-meat combo that stacks real smoke over a bed of fries. The BBQ beans round out the tray. What it lacks in fine finish it makes up for in sheer generosity—an unfancy grill that sends you out full and comes in under budget, feeding the neighborhood the way a neighborhood counter should, one heaping plate at a time.
