Review content:
There is no such thing as a BBQ "restaurant". All great BBQ comes from a "joint", "place", or "shack". BBQ joints should be homey, comfortable, relaxing. The music should be blues, country, or a blend of the two. The hallmark of real BBQ is the smell of smoke.
KC used to be a BBQ joint. They used to have really good ribs, above average chopped pork, and great live blues. When you walked in the door, you stood in line at the counter to place your order, then picked your way thru the packed dining area and past the dark wood bar to find a table. If you came in at night, you could listen to live blues as you ate some of the best ribs in North Fulton county.
All of that has changed.
They closed the small and cramped location to relocate in a bigger more expansive space. The smell of smoke has been replaced with the generic smell of a "restaurant", and the sound of blues usurped by jazz. The charm of the old place is gone. Now it is just another cookie cutter trendy restaurant that happens to serve what they call BBQ. Instead of the friendly wait staff in jeans and t-shirts, you are greeted by a hostess in a tux shirt and tie.
KC has gone the way of other "classy" places as far as wait staff goes. You have one person dressed in dark blue dress shirt and tie who takes your order, and two or three people all dressed in black who actually bring your food. Forget being "waited on". I had to get up to find salt and pepper from another table. In spite of the buzz of employees, service was not good.
But the food - the food was mediocre BBQ at best. I had the chopped pork that had the consistency of corn beef has, and more than one fork full was actually cold. One of my friends had turkey that he said was the quality of school cafeteria turkey. The side dishes (with the exception of the Brunswick stew) were better than the meat. The collard greens were actually exceptional.
BBQ is not fine-dining, and in trying to make it so, KC has woefully missed the mark.
Pros: collard greens were really good
Cons: this isn't what a BBQ joint should be
