Billy sims is by no means my favorite BBQ place but it isn’t bad either, somewhere in the middle. The good was my food was ready very quickly and the lady behind the counter was very nice. Also the sauces were tasty and had good flavor and the restaurant was clean. The bad was it was a little pricey and I hate to complain about price in a pandemic because quality meat is expensive right now. However for what I got (BBQ sandwich w/cheese, Mac n cheese, and a drink) the order came to 14.43$. The Mac n cheese was not great, the drink and the bbq sandwich were good and filling but I wouldn’t call it great. Overall I enjoyed my meal here but nothing wowed me

The people that work there are very courteous and helpful. And the place is always nice and clean whenever we have visited. But whenever we order ribs, there are always some in our order that are too dry. With this full rack order the six ribs on the top were okay, but seemed old, and the six ribs in this picture were on the bottom, including the "ends", and were very dry and I was unable to eat them. I'm sure that if I asked they would accommodate me with ribs that I would be able to eat, but I trusted them and wasn't paying attention. I will next time. The quality is inconsistent. That's too far to drive and not be satisfied, especially for the amount of money I spent. I use to refer friends and drive clear to Andover for their BBQ on the regular, but that has changed.

Billy Sims has really improved since they got here. I really enjoy the pulled pork it has amazing flavor. The staff is great the food is fresh, the restaurants clean and it's all consistent. I highly recommend Billy Sims, and glad I kept coming back.

Food was really good. I loved the hot sauce you have.. Great pork portion on the sandwhich lunch special for the price. Only downside is, my friend and I were only the second customers in today and the workers already looked like they hated being there. The guy with a beard and sword tattoo on this right arm very unprofessional. I walked up to order, only thing he said was "what do you want". He tosses the buns on table and threw the pulled pork on top.

Food is decent but the staff was beyond kind and courteous. Clean and well prepared dining room , didn't rush me or make me feel like I was bothering them. A+ on the service, B+ on the food.

Fast service and great food. Had a birthday that we put together last minute. Called them an hour before we needed the food and they came through. Was hot a fresh. Will do this again

Before I begin to rate Billy Simms Barbecue in Wichita, KS, it should be noted that the parking lot was empty before entering the restaurant. Should you see an empty parking lot in front any restaurant avoid the place at all costs! With that being said, disappointment is too weak of a word to describe the food here.
Beginning with the ribs, they were dry, cold and had zero flavor. My companion stated that they were worse than hospital food. We could recognize instantly that the ribs were not cooked freshly; they were "heat and serve"from a box. The sauces had either too much vinegar or not enough (they come in packets; you get no sauce on your ribs).
In hindsight, I should have noticed there was no steam heat emanating from them meat; they must have come out of a lukewarm holding oven because they were cold to the touch. I've had AMAZING dry rub barbecue from Chicago to Kansas City (Missouri and Kansas) to Texas and this was not it. Not by a long shot.
As for the sides, what a waste! Everything was from a can or a box and tasted a such. Let's take a rundown:
-Mashed potatoes: horrible, they tasted like they had rubber on top of them. There was saran wrap on top of them. Completely horrid.
-Macaroni and Cheese: It would have been tenfold better if they just made Kraft Mac n Cheese. The flavor was really bad. My partner ate less than a spoonful then discarded them.
-Dressing: bland, mushy and did not have the gravy I requested (a good thing it was missing, else I'd have been eating tasteless baby food), and was overly salted.
-Original Potato Salad: store-bought is much better.
-Green Beans: exactly what you expect from a can with an added flavor packet- dull and salty.
-Cole Slaw: the one bright spot of the meal, still tasted of off-brand Dole premix with slurry (just get KFC slaw, you're stomach will thank you!).
-"Garlic", or Buttered Bread: Nope. Soggy, tasteless, it's a hard pass.
In America, during the time of covid-19, a vacation in an RV should be fun and filled with great tasting food, along with the Purple Mountain Majesties. This was just a red-hot blooded mess. 1.5 stats is being generous. L, especially when 10 bones of ribs plus all those sides and 2 drinks was over $32. Need I say more?

We only tried chopped brisket and bbq beans, both were tasty. Usually busy during lunch time.
