The Legend. Tradition.
Arthur Bryant, the legendary King of Ribs, is the most renowned "barbequer" in history. He created a unique sauce and style that has attracted the likes of former Presidents Harry Truman, Jimmy Carter, and Barack Obama to his restaurant. Charlie Bryant started the Kansas City barbeque tradition, learning from the father of Barbeque, Henry Perry, for whom Charlie worked. Arthur visited his brother Charlie in Kansas City and never left. Upon his brother's death, Arthur took over the operation and moved the restaurant to where it stands today at 18th & Brooklyn. At the time, that was just four blocks away from Municipal Stadium, home of the Kansas City Blues and then the Kansas City Athletics. It was also the first home to the Kansas City Chiefs. This move catapulted the restaurant to country-wide popularity.

Must visit for authentic KC barbecue in an iconic restaurant. Sandwich portions are large...the half brisket sandwich and onion rings at lunchtime made me skip supper. Enjoyed seeing pics of all the presidents, politicians and celebrities who have eaten here..

First time in Kansas City and got this recommendation online. It was so good! I had the pork ribs. Baked beans were amazing! And the customers were so kind, one told us he's been going there for decades and it's the best. Will be back and will recommend to friends and family.

My wife and I had the pork and beef combo sandwich, side of fries and a side of baked beans. Everything was perfect. Also the staff was very friendly and personable.
