"Highest-rated barbecue in the country!" - Zagat Survey

Jack Stack Barbecue originated in Kansas City in 1957, by Russ Fiorella in a traditional storefront barbecue, with a modest selection of 5 or 6 items. Jack Fiorella, the eldest son, worked with his father until 1974 when he decided to branch off and start Fiorella's Jack Stack of Martin City.

    Everything was excellent. Only exception would be the brisket had a lot of fat on it.

    Service was wonderful and food was exceptional as always! I still miss the old Jack Stack, the new one is too sterile and doesn’t have enough to make it look like a true bbq joint. Food is still the same though!

    The food was very good, lamb ribs were tender, brisket flavorful and burnt ends were ok. Fries were average. The onion ring appetizer was good although I personally prefer thinner rings. Mushrooms were very good and the broccoli was excellent. Our server was knowledgeable and available without being intrusive. All the food arrived hot. I would definitely go back.
