What a delicious surprise to find this hidden gem! Mouthwatering and perfectly smoked meets with delicious sides. Ribs were truly amazing and so was brisket. The bbq sauce was good, but that’s anyone’s take. Mac and cheese was well melted and perfectly cheese without cheese breaking fat. Short, this is a steal for the price and super nice service.
We spotted this joint while out looking for something else and planned on a return trip even though I despise Berkeley and the people that run it. It's hard to pass up good pork ribs and these are some of the best I've had.
5 stars.
I came here with my boyfriend and let me tell you the food is amazing! We got the 3-way plate with 2 sides and the sweet tea. The portions are just right and we were both satisfied. Everything was delicious and great quality. The staff were super nice and helpful. Even took a picture with one of the cooks! 10/10 will come there again !!

I have been trying a variety of BBQ establishments lately.
I ordered take out from KC's twice now. Both times, the "crew" combo. There's a slight increase in price between both occasions: the first time, sides were in small plastic containers, now replaced with compostable cardboard (no doubt more expensive) which are much easier to store and use for me.
The food packaging from KC's is outstanding: very neatly done, no spills and stacked logically in the bags. It's worth noting because it's so carefully done, and the same attention shows in the food prep as well.
I'm somewhat picky and prefer lean meat and mostly 'drier'.
KC's brisket is the best I've had so far, on both occasions. Chicken: same, I couldn't fault it if I tried. But the links? Last time I had sausage close to this good was about 20 years ago at a backyard BBQ, and KC's is better. The spices, hint of fennel (?) and texture are close to perfect to me. Clearly, all of this takes a lot of work. Now, of course, there's something funny about food reviews, in that individual tastes run so different.
But I recently tried a highly rated local chain whose link looked like a greasy butterfly attempting a backflip and tasted like salt and hot peppered oil. Did not review that.
I have no hesitation driving 60 miles round trip for KC's. If you are considering trying them, do so: it's exceptional.
What a gem. I can’t remember enjoying any bbq on the west coast more than I enjoyed KC’s. The ribs were wonderful and also enjoyed the brisket and sausage. Sides of beans, potato salad, and collards were all delicious. For those that like spicy, their spicy bbq sauce was legit. Service was a very good and felt like family. They have two cozy outdoor seats on the back patio which was pretty enjoyable. Definitely recommended!
Seen you guys on restaurant impossible. The owner and the daughter seem like good people . He takes the time to reply to all his customers Reviews, so for that, I'll help you with 5 stars even though I'm in Michigan and never had this place,but the food does look delicious, . I hope you and your daughter are still doing good . And just curious ,does Robert stay in touch with you ? Or stops by to see how your doing ?
