“We attended a private event for approximately 50 guests at Austin's on Lone Elm this weekend. The taco bar was quite tasty, and stocked repeatedly for our group as needed. While the party was fun, it was ever more memorable due to our two servers, Mikaela and Jeremy. These two were so fun, exuberant and hard working professionals. Their constant smiles while keeping up with the drink orders with precision was fantastic! They were go getters from the start and made an already fun day even better. Great employees, good food, thank you Austin's Lone Elm for a great experience!“

“I have been going to this restaurant for many years, making many new friend during this time, recently a situtation occured at this restaurant that really concerned me, I always tease with and get teased as well with the staff there and Its always been a lot of fun, I know of this one waitress that has worked there for a long time, when I come In a lot of times we will share a hug out of gratitude and friendship, we have known one another for years and supported her when she opened a restaurant in Ottawa, ks. anyway I came in one day recently and the hostess the daughter of this waitress I know quite well was laughing and made a comment saying you always hug my mom but never me, so I In a playful way gave her a hug and left thinking nothing more of this incounter, well a few days ago the wife of the owner sit down and said I need to speak with you about something, and went on to say I need to not be touching any employees In there establishment, I told her at this time about the earlier situtation and It was all In fun, apparently that hostess took it upon herself to only tell her part of the story here, so I want to say I would never want to hurt or embarrass anyone or do anything Inappropriate in any way to anyone at any time, this really hurt me and after so many years of support for this restaurant I have nothing negative to say about anyone here , thats not how I handle unpleasant situtations but I probably wont be going back and that saddens me !“

“A great meal and they have reasonably priced burgers and other items to have when you want to have a great meal. I recommend to go as they make some good burgers.“

“The Olathe Ridgeview Minsky’s is the very best of all their locations. Brandi and her team make sure our gluten free needs are met and the pizza is always excellent! The restaurant is clean, the staff is very friendly and the kitchen team is organized and fast! We’ve tried many gluten free pizzas and restaurants but nothing compares to the Olathe Minsky’s location. We don’t order pizza anywhere else!

Dietary restrictions: The gluten free cauliflower pizza crust is excellent!!“

Marla and the staff took great care of us with prompt service and delicious food. The Blue Moose is a great choice for any group coming over from the Garmin Soccer Complex. Five stars all the way, and thanks again for the great meal.“
