Had a great meal here this evening. The brisket was fantastic. I had the Mac n cheese and sweet potato tots. The sides were also delicious. My hubs had the 1/2 fried chicken with the Coleslaw and onion rings for sides. His dinner was fire!! The fried chicken had a perfect batter and fry on it. We took two of their huge cookies home for dessert. I will let you know how they are. Eat here for some tasty food and great service. We will definitely eat here again read more

Amazing food and owner. Great food and great prices. The owner and staff go out of their way to take care of you. Ask for Debbie when you go, she is the best. Bill puts love in everyone of his dishes. The bread pudding is delicious read more

Delicious food. Homemade flavors. I'm not a fan of beans....but I tried Bill's ham/bean soup....wow!!

Drove up there from kck . Ribs and wings were tough as hell.they we're not grilled. Worst so called barbecue I have had in my entire life. Horrible . Negative 2900 stars. Terrible just terrible .we will never spend another dime there. read more

On my take out order, I asked twice for mild BBQ sauce. Went back to work. No BBQ sauce for the brisket. Disappointed. Not worth going back and I don't want to have to inspect every meal I order to take away from anywhere. BUT I tried the brisket and it was perfect today. read more

Mashed potatoes and gravy very poor chicken gravy looked like water and mac and cheese with pulled pork was fair but have had better. I could not recommend this place as it is lacking quality. read more

been there since he was starting out! AMAZING!! Bill is an overall great guy:) his new shop is clean, nice and very supportive, Check it out! Definitely recommend read more

great service, amazing food! we had the fishermen platter, smoked wings and bread pudding. the crab cake and shrimp were really good, and you could tell the Mac and cheese is homemade. the were fantastic, and didn't even need sauce. The bread pudding was actually what got us in the door after we saw it on the sign out front, and was so worth it. down home cooking and reasonable prices. we found our new date spot! read more

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! read more

Food was ok. The wings were dry and overcooked and the portions were soooo small. Not really worth the money but the workers there were nice read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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 read more

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 read more

Soooooo Good! I had the chicken and waffles and added a side of baked beans. Mom had the bread pudding, a slice of heaven!!! read more

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. read more

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. read more

We usually wait a minute to try out new places and Bill's Kitchen did not disappoint! We arrived for dinner about 6:30, service was a little slow, but the food made up for it! My date and I split the 1/2 fried chicken with mashed potatoes and added sides of coke slaw and potato salad to try out. It took a little asking to get drinks, but we knew the food would take a while, so that didn't bother us. All sides with our meal were excellent and the fried chicken was the best I've had ever I think...we tasted the different bbq sauces on the table also, Incase we want to come back and try the brisket/ribs. We will definitely be back! My date just ordered some bread pudding and there is a short wait for that also, fingers crossed it's as good as all the other items we've had tonight! read more

Just got done eating there today and have eaten there twice in the past. Food is pretty good. I had ribs, pulled pork, brisket, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes with gravy, and bread pudding. No issue with any of the food and the bread pudding was really good. My four kids enjoyed the food as well. Additionally our server was very attentive. read more

We love the fried chicken and the ribs (which he keep moist and tender thru deep frying and BBQ'ing, with a wonderful rub) The gizzards appetizer will amaze you, while the crab cakes are delicate and savory. A hidden gem! we go every week without fail, the kids come home from college just to eat together as a family. Simple, inexpensive, deeply satisfying and the service is always great. I bring all my out of town friends and my international clients here read more

The brisket is the best! I have also had the ribs, pulled pork and burnt ends and its all good. I have not tried the chicken though.

Bill's has great southern fried chicken. I am from the south and have been constantly disappointed with the quality of fried chicken outside of the south. Bill does it right. I would also recommend the gizzards it sounds crazy but give them a shot. The French fries are cut in house and are the best in town. Great down home people with friendliness to match. Bill has welcomed us at every visit. read more

Second time around. We got the pulled pork and a brisket sandwich. They were very good. The fries and baked beans were good, too, but the mashed potatoes were weird and the gravy was watery and strange. Still overall good for their ribs and sandwiches. read more

Best food in Leavenworth. Bill is a great cook and was super happy to see him back at it in Leavenworth.

Great new place in town for BBQ. Pulled pork was moist and ribs were fall of the bone deliciousness. Think this place might be my new favorite place in Leavenworth for ribs. Service was good as well and owner is present to insure quality is always the best it can be. read more

Probably the best fried chicken in Leavenworth. The fried chicken is truly like homemade, not like mass chain fried chicken. The pieces were huge and delicious. The batter was light and crispy, and the chicken was hot and juicy. The baked beans were pretty good, but I added some of their spicy BBQ sauce to jazz them up a bit. My wife had the smoked turkey sandwich and it looked really good, with plenty of meat. She said the taste was very good also. I had the brisket sandwich last week and it was pretty good too. My review is as far as BBQ, they are good and on par with anyone in Leavenworth. Much faster than All Slabbed Up and just as good. As far as fried chicken, I think they are the best in town. I plan to damage my cholesterol numbers more with their chicken in the future. I hope this place is successful as I enjoy the small business restaurants over the chains. read more

The chicken tasted good, and the fried gizzards were really good and tender. Two pieces of chicken, one side and corn bread is $8.99. The menu didn't specify how many pieces of chicken you get, and I got a dinner roll instead of cornbread. I ordered carry out, so the small tubs of butter, that I didn't realize were in the box, melted and spilled out soaking the chicken and fries. The fries have a good taste, and the people working there are friendly. For what you get, the chicken is about 25% more expensive than other places that sell fried chicken. Their menu is limited, which is not necessarily a bad thing because it focuses on BBQ and chicken only. I am curious about their deep fried ribs, so I will probably go back. It is also close to Fort Leavenworth, which makes it a convenient lunch possibility. I recommend trying it. read more
