I really enjoy Smokin' Jacks. The baby back ribs and ham are outstanding. It sounds like the last reviewer had a bad experience, but I've been probably 10 times and I have never had a bad meal.

If you are my worst enemy, even if you have caused me great bodily injury, do not eat at Smokin Jacks Kansas City BBQ in Summerland. For the rest of you, heed my warning. I should’ve known something was wrong when my wife and I were the second group in the restaurant. They seated us by the kitchen door because people could see us through the window and the restaurant looked as if it was populated.

I ordered by Grilled BBQ Chicken Salad and my wife ordered the Grilled Chicken. The waitress didn’t notice that our water glasses were empty, and even after we asked for water, she didn’t bring it to us.

After taking a bite of our Grilled BBQ Chicken Salad, we noticed that it nearly raw inside. We pointed this out to her, and she said that she would give us a “discount” on our food.

We thought that the Grilled Chicken was cooked, but we sent it back anyway.

Didn’t seem to bother our waitress that our food wasn’t cooked.

She brought the food back, but by this time, my wife and I decided that we weren’t going to take chances on this food.

I cut into my Grilled Chicken and it was nearly raw. Our waitress seemed more concerned with giving us our $3.00 bill for the root beer that my wife ordered. We told her that we refused to pay for anything.

I got pissed at the audacity of these people sending out barely cooked food two times in a row, and how if we weren’t careful, we’d be in the hospital right now.

The waitress asked if I felt better because I was raising my voice.

Needless to say, I raised my voice again. Clearly, the cook doesn’t know what he’s doing, and the service there is horrific.

Go there only if you want the worst dining experience of your life or want a trip to the hospital.
