The good is great!!! Awesome service as well. I have tried a few things off their menu and never been disappointed. The cornbread is amazing!
Wow what a find! Simple, straightforward GOOD FOOD!! The wings were great on their own (but they gave me some bbq sauce for fun), the sweet potato fries were perfect and the bread pudding is out of this world. Small walk up building. Plan to take out or (as I did) eat in your car but DEFINITELY make this a stop to find in Leavenworth!
Grew up in Leavenworth and was back for a visit. Went to Bill's kitchen for barbeque. It was delicious and the service was great. Got to meet Bill himself. The meat was so tender that it fell off of the bones on the ribs. Be sure and ask for sauce so that the meat is not too dry.
Customer service was fantastic! Bill was very helpful with me getting exactly what I wanted. This is a keeper for quick and tasty comfort food
Bill opened a new location @ 1000 N 7th St., Leavenworth, KS. My pregnant wife was craving okra and we found this little joint. They were super nice, hospitable, and the okra was great! Plus, it's inexpensive. I have yet to try their bread pudding and cookies but they looked so yummy
One of life's great pleasures is knowing that there are restaurants currently unknown to me and that by tomorrow may be one of my new favorites. That is what happened today after meeting up with my stepson in Leavenworth for his birthday lunch. He chose Bill's Kitchen and I'm so glad he did. Four of us ordered 4 different items and shared an order of gizzards as an appetizer. The waitress overheard me stating that I only eat Go Chicken Go gizzards and interjected, "ours are better". Well OK then, bring it on! A minimally light battering that covered the most tender gizzards I've experienced. A great start! I then ordered one of the daily specials - Rib tip plate with fries. Succulent and tender large pieces of meat with smoked goodness permeating the entire serving. The house cut fries were plentiful and better than most, but I wish I had tried the mac and cheese or potato salad after seeing those items from other diners. My wife ordered one of the strangest items I've encountered - Deep Fried Ribs! I traded some rib tips for a bone and it was not only unique but damn tasty. A large smoked rib bone with lots of beef dipped in the same great batter they used on the gizzards and then quickly deep fried and coated with a peach glaze. BBQ purists be damned, this was a game changer for me, the combination of flavors and textures hit all the right notes - crispy, smoky, sweet, fruity, succulent, tender...made me eager to come back for an entire order for myself. My stepson had a large plate of brisket and pulled pork and his girlfriend had the other daily special - brisket melt sandwich. Both plates looked great and received 2 thumbs up from each of them. We ordered a bread pudding that was best in class also. Bill the owner stopped by twice to check in on our dinner and provide background. A great guy that I'm more than ready to support in the future, and by future, I mean ASAP.
After living in Miami and Tampa over the last 20 years and eating numerous Cuban sandwiches from places there, I can say without a doubt that the Cuban at Bill's is the BEST I ever had. Seriously......I was not expecting that to happen and will probably get disowned.
Great quality BBQ at a super local, small town restaurant outside the Fort Leavenworth gates. Small with limited beer selection; but great BBQ. Very affordable.
Soooooo Good! I had the chicken and waffles and added a side of baked beans. Mom had the bread pudding, a slice of heaven!!!
