Blind Box BBQ - Village West

I was skeptical of eating here because it's in Nebraska Furniture Mart. I figured it was just some plain Jane food court type place. Man was I wrong. The bbq is outrageously good! Their bbq beans are amazing and their sandwiches are huge and worth every penny. The kids meals are really big so if you have small kids, maybe have them split a meal. The kids meal was big enough to feed an adult! Don't hesitate! It's worth a visit!!

The Notorious P.I.G is more of an adventure than a pulled pork sandwich! Clear your schedule, grab some extra napkins and get ready. You will only be disappointed when it's gone. Plus, the smoked wings are some of the meatiest, most flavorful I've ever had. Sauces are a nice twist on a classic without straying too far from KC roots, and the food comes out hot, fresh, and fast. For portion size and quality prices are right where you'd expect them to be, though, maybe a touch high for an order-at-the-counter, and clear-your-own-place establishment. Does that stop me from going back? Of course not, it's BBQ!

Posting menus and signage to help others, this location has all day happy hour on Fridays (not Thursdays like the main location). This worked out really nice for us since we planned mattress shopping around hearing the live music they have weekly on Fridays as well. Food wasn’t as good as the main location, burnt ends came out cold and the “buffalo wings” tasted nothing like buffalo, but it was overall fine. Their happy hour nachos are delicious and a steal. Limited bar with batch cocktails, but they were big (and strong).

Honestly, I was really looking forward to going here.. The other location in Shawnee is sooo excellent so, I finally decided to try this one! At first glance, the food looked pretty good.. But then, I started to eat it.. And... Here we go folks... We ordered a lunch rib tip plate with fries, an onion straw starter, and Brisket nachos.. 1. The Onion Straw starter came out with the rest of the food.. It was BARELY done.. Straws were hot but, kinda soggy.. No honey mustard or other sauce was given.. It's supposed to come with honey mustard standard. 2. The Lunch Rib Tip Platter was COLD! And when I say cold, let's just say barely room temp.. The fries that came with were actually very good though.. 3. The Brisket Nachos were more like regular nachos.. Of the little Brisket that was on there,

I wasn’t expecting much given the location, but this place definitely exceeded my expectations! The food is reasonably priced—just $10 for a sandwich and your choice of side. I highly recommend the mac & cheese. The portion sizes are spot-on for the price—they definitely don’t hold back. I also tried The Notorious P.I.G., and it was packed with flavor. A great find all around!
