32 Best Wine Bars near Leawood

“Celebrated NYE here. Great staff, excellent food and drinks, and awesome vibe. Can't wait to go back!“

“Great experience & I brought three pre-tweens with me. This could’ve been a terrible time anywhere but they were so thoughtful & considerate. The chef came by with treats for the kids & the food was excellent. Would def try it for a girls night.“

“Shake Shack food quality is top notch for a fast food restaurant. The burgers are excellent. The Shack Burger is always perfectly done. The patty edges are crispy and the ingredients fresh. You can add pickles, onions, and other basic toppings for free. The Smokehouse burger is also a favorite. The bacon is well-cooked and the cherry peppers add a bit of heat to the burger.

Fries are crispy on the outside and soft inside. Highly recommend the cheese fries if you like tangy melted cheese!

I never leave Shake Shack without a shake. You can’t go wrong with the chocolate or vanilla. Love that they have a wide variety of flavor options and even floats if you don’t want a shake.

The only downside is this location can get very busy during lunch and dinner. My wait time during peak hours can be around 20 minutes. Also, just a heads up there is no drive through!“

“Fantastic atmosphere paired with an outstanding selection of wine and dining options !!!“

“Discovered Mineral Lounge in a search for a wine bar and found our new favorite place. Beautiful interior with spectacular views of the city and Kauffman Center. Great option for pre or post symphony/ballet. Original and delicious cocktails. Great list of wines by the glass. Love the everyday Happy Hour. We will be back!“

“Very nice atmosphere, delicious wine, and they have Joe for a bartender! Who could ask for more? We’ll be back!“

“My Daughter and I had a day trip to KC today, we came down to The City Market, we wanted to try something different. This place was Delicious! My taste buds danced in my mouth!! We will be going back!! Bert, Thanks so much for the experience!!!“

“Absolutely loved our visit here today! It was my boyfriend and I’s first time! We wanted to try something new so we decided on brunch here. All of the staff was incredibly welcoming. Being in hospitality myself, it’s always so nice to see team members being hyper aware of other patrons/tables that may need service, regardless on if it’s their table/responsibility or not. We grabbed a coffee while waiting for a table that the host was able to snag for us (rookie mistake on my end for not making a reservation!). We weren’t in any hurry and didn’t mind waiting! The coffee was tasty, food was amazing, and the atmosphere even better! Our server Grace was incredibly busy, but still incredibly kind. I commend her ability to remain calm under pressure! A nice man that I believe was the manager noticed that we needed service and grabbed our order and drinks. We finished with a cinnamon roll that was deliciously unique! We can’t wait to come back to try dinner sometime!“

“We had an amazing anniversary dinner at The Castle! Delicious food, fantastic service, vast wine selection! We are disappointed that we hadn't dined here sooner....plan to be back many times! Thank you to Carla and Dan for a fantastic evening!“

“Love EVERYTHING about LWD!!!“

“Went to Barbacoa, 5500 Troost, for brunch Sunday morning, what a delightful experience. I ordered Monie’s plate. It was mouthwatering. The serving was so generous, that I took half of it home. The corn tortillas were soft and warm enough to make a taco, the beans were flavorful and not spicy, the carnitas were fall apart tender and very tasty, perfectly fried potatoes, and fluffy scrambled eggs. The salsa was very tasty and not overly spicy. The coffee was even tasty (Costco Kirkland medium roast). Unlike some breakfast restaurants, the background music was so low and mellow (helps with digestion), I could hear my friends talk. We have to go back during the week for dinner. UPDATE - I forgot one very important thing, the service was excellent. Our group was one of two in the restaurant, but shortly afterwards other start to arrive. There was only one friendly waitress, who, despite the growing crowd, was able to get back to us about more coffee and to check on us“

“Phenomenal use of herbs and spices to enhance quality meats, fishes, and vegan dishes. Have eaten here twice with zero complaints. The lamb is out of this world! Burnt ends, Filet, Shrimp, Smash Burger, and Scallops were a big hit.“

“My husband and I popped by on a Saturday afternoon about 2:00 pm and it was quiet here until about 3:30. The bartender was very sweet and let me create my own craft cocktail using their amazing house blended tomorrow syrup. The books here are super cool and we proved several away just hanging out and drinking our cocktails. We’ve driven by so many times and this time it was a destination. Cool vibes, comfy seating for small groups. I noticed some laptop lap decks under a coffee table- nice amenity. This is yet another reason to love living in KC.“

“Fantastic food and great atmosphere! Worth our tripfrom DFW!“

“Ragazza is my favorite restaurant. We’ve been several times. Tonight we had Liz as a server and Channing helped out as well. Both of them were awesome. The food.. as always was awesome. Drinks superb. If you haven’t tried Ragazza you should. The Eggplant parm is my favorite but everything is honestly delicious.“

“Staff, dinner, wine, and ambiance were all amazing. Great NYE dinner! The scallops were cooked perfectly! Highly recommend to all!“

“Best trivia night ever! Go on Wednesdays“

“We had a large group and they accomodated us at the last minute. We had some of their signature dishes served family style and all were great!“

“I always find a new drink to love here! Perfect for girls night out or date night. The crew here is so friendly, and they make excellent recommendations when I want to try something new on the menu.“

“Was really good! Some of the best cocktails I've ever had. Came in during Sunday happy hour after 4 and was told all cocktails are $2 off, however got charged full price for one of hours. Bartender was too busy to ask about it after we got the itemized receipt. Overall, delicious. Just wish we would have gotten the full special.“

“Great food & great atmosphere! Definitely will be going back!“

“The best birthday dinner experience I've had! They made I feel so special. I'll be a forever patron. ❤️“

“Today was my husband's 75th birthday. He chose to have his celebration meal at Season's 52 and we were pleased as usual with the service (thanks to Michael) and the delicious food in true Season's 52 beautiful ambiance! It was truly memorable experience.“

“I worked here. The owner moved me to a new apartment and gave me 100 dollars just because. I still wear my PPT shirt around town and have some pressed pennies. Great food. Great family owners. The most cozy hidden gem in Kansas City!“

“Five star service and food was on the money!“

“Great atmosphere. Beef Tartar was wonderful. Excellent selection of wines. 100% will impress a girl. Go forth men. Show them a good night.“

“unbelievably just out of this world“

“We enjoyed our meal for sure. Food is excellent as always. The only reason for a 4 star review is their attempts at a fine dining experience falls short of an actual fine dining experience. By this I mean, wine glasses needed to be asked to be removed even after it was clear we weren't having wine. Had to ask for iPad they left on the table to removed. Had to ask for plates to be cleared and new utensils to be brought.... All minor things but as the restaurant wasn't busy, these were all the little things that can set the tone for a fine dining experience. And at over $350 for three people at brunch, I do expect MORE. The most outstanding service was by our busboy who filled our waters at every opportunity without fail. Our server was certainly courteous and capable, maybe just a little green with overall expectation of excellence. While I'm sure we will be back, I honestly prefer YaYa's due to the level of service they offer. While not considered “fine dining”, Yaya's never fails to impress with their waitstaff training. And they charge half as much for basically the same quality of food options. I guess you got to chose what matters most to you when you're looking for fine dining— the “name” or the over all feel of a place.“

“The ribeye is PERFECT, the atmosphere is wonderful and I had the honor of meeting the owner and thanking him personally for his hospitality, he’s a very very nice person and very welcoming! I don’t get up that way much (I’m from Wichita, KS) but when I’m back, you can bet Veritas is on the list of stops, I guarantee it 💯 Veritas is a 10 out of 5 stars“

“The food was excellent. We ordered 2 orders of crab lagoon, sweet and sour chicken and the triple delight (chicken, beef and shrimp) all with steamed rice. With the assistance of an air fryer the leftovers were as good as the day we picked it up. I was hoping they had direct delivery so my elderly folks could order it more often. They dont like subscribing to delivery services like Doordash, Uber eats, etc... and they dont have a car due to their age. My dad hasn't been eating well lately so it was a pleasure to see him gobble this delicious food up to include the leftovers. ITS A WINNER.“

“Hands down the best Italian restaurant in the city!“

“We sat at the bar (unfortunately a very large, awkwardly placed beer tap was directly in front of us). A bartender named Hayden took our orders. He was very pleasant and attentive. We were talking to a couple next to us and after we finished eating and the seat on the other side of the couple opened, I moved over there. I finished my drink and wanted another but the other bartender, Lucas who was now supposed to be taking care of us never looked our way. I finally had to get Hayden’s attention and asked him to tell Lucas I wanted a drink. But, Lucas was too busy talking to a guest on the other side of the bar. I finally got Lucas’ attention and got a drink. This kind of non attention to all guests is not acceptable in my opinion. Finally, the drink glasses are very small for the price. I’m not likely to return.

Update. We did go back and had a much better experience with Lucas. Turns out he’s a really great guy. I’m sorry I doubted you.“
