New American Restaurants near Lenexa, KS

“Ate here last night and this restaurant is a "must try!" I had the 12 oz. KC Strip, mashed potatoes, garlic green beans, and... for dessert, apple caramel bread pudding with cinnamon ice cream was to die for! The atmosphere was a bit loud for my taste, but aside from that, it was delightful!“

“Great atmosphere, great food, great service. Recommend 💯.“

“Food was overall solid.
Got the smoky mountain flat iron steak, mac and cheese, goat cheese grits. I also added on a side of rosemary parmesan crispy potatoes.

The steak had good flavor.
The mac and cheese was delicious, just a little cold when served.
The goat cheese grits was on the weaker side of flavor.
The potatoes were tasty.

The service was friendly and well paced.
The atmosphere looks fantastic, and the tables were clean.

For those with bigger appetites, you may not get full from your meal.“

“The food is delicious and it has a great vibe. Will definitely go back! 😋“

“We set a reservation with The Blue Moose two days in advance for a party of 30 composed of my daughter's soccer team and parental entourage. 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.“

“Everything about our experience was amazing. Just wanted to come shout out the waitress that took care of a large company party today from 4-6. I didn’t catch her name, but she was so professional, quick, talented, friendly, and all around one of the best waitresses I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Hope her bosses see this and she gets some type of spiff bonus cause she deserves it!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“I like how right when you walk in the staff makes an effort to seat you whether you had a reservation or not. I do recommend a reservation because it gets busy! The food is good and there are great non-alcoholic drink options like kombucha.“

“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.“

“Me and my mom stopped by while in town for a concert and everything literally was PERFECT. we have been raving in the car since leaving and Tiffany was the most perfect server that we were blessed with. We had the pretzel app, the stockyard fries, and the mac and cheese with bacon and everything was out quickly and again, absolutely astonishing!!! much love to Tiffany, and because she was so proactive we got to the concert DEAD ON time.“

“Very cool dining and cocktails are superb!“

“One of the best steak salads I’ve ever had. And the Maytag blue cheese crumbles put it over the top! The service was five-star and the place was hopping!!!“

“Always have a good time , and the salted bun. Must get“

“The food was incredible, the service was flawless, and the atmosphere was wonderful. I have trouble hearing in crowded restaurants and had no issues here. The service was attentive and thoughtful. And the food was worth daydreaming about. We will be back!“

“One of the true PBJ legends that never disappoints. We are not only fond of out menu choices but we are spoiled by incredible service the moment we enter the front doors. Ask for Larry & start off with the Gnocci. That’s the only advice I would give you. I love this place“

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

“You can't go wrong here. I was as skeptical as the rest... over priced hot food with limited quantity. The portions were more than ample. But the menu selections was what stood out. There was something there for everybody. And the flavors were like a more expensive brand.“

“I have been eating here for years and food and service is usually very good. I am never sure of their new hours since Covid. However, I was told by the front-line lady that because it was 15 minutes before closing I had to place my order to go. There were people there, still eating. Were they going to be asked to leave at closing? In the past I was never denied dine-in service.“

“Everything is good here - especially the staff! I always change up what I order and Jonny’s never disappoints! Shout out to all of their hardworking and always wonderful staff!“

“Awesome employees and great prices“

“I really only come here for the sports bar atmosphere. Food is not anything spectacular but tolerable much like any other sports bar in the area. Service this day was sub par. I think our bartender/ server may have been high, as they really messed up our order. But all in all, kinda what I expect from Johnny's.“

“Highly recommend! I’ve watched the menu here for a while and planned a parent’s date night based on their fall menu offerings. The food, drinks and atmosphere were all great. Food takes a while to come out as it is prepared fresh. Very thoughtful cuisine and an eclectic blend of flavors married together seamlessly. Again, highly recommend, don’t let the concise menu dissuade you as it may be tiny but mighty.“

“Friends took me out for my 91st birthday and I requested Paulo's. Been there many times for 45 years. Always order chicken Piccata. Had garlic bread which was excellent. My order came and There was about a full cup of mashed potatoes with a small chicken breast on it. About 2". Chicken was not very tender and I ate the lunch in about 5 bites. Cost $16. no veggies or salad. Gentleman came over and asked how everything was and I told him . Portion was so small. He was very nice and took my lunch price off the bill. I will be back one more time because I really always liked it there. Also had lunch at 2:30 and no one else there but 3 people at the bar. I hope there is some improvement in the portions of some memu items in the future.“

“KC restaurant week was an exceptional experience at Story. Each course was well prepared and exceeded everything we had heard to bring us here! We're self-proclaimed foodies, and of the many fine dining options in the KC area, Story was one that we'll revisit again!“

“Love EVERYTHING about LWD!!!“

“Decent chopped salad with salmon and burger“

“Definitely a very nice staff. Feels really crammed inside though. I had ordered a catering order and I understand it was last minute but they told me they were able to do it. I called about 45 mins to an hour before scheduled pick up to make sure it would still be ready on time and the lady said you’re scheduled for this time so yes it will ready in a sarcastic tone. Okay I was just asking because if it was going to be later then I would come later instead of standing there waiting no big deal. So I get there at my scheduled time and it took them a good 10 minutes just to get my bill together. Then I had to wait another 20 minutes for the food. Granted I ordered the bare minimum for a catering order. Again I get I ordered it same day but don’t say you can do it by a certain time if you cannot. I’m a very understanding person but I ended up being late to where I needed to go because of waiting so long. They also have you wait at the bar which I don’t feel comfortable with because 1. I’m not trying to sit down to pick up food and 2. I’m taking up a spot that someone could be sitting in. Other than that the food wasn’t horrible just very mediocre.“

“Excellent atmosphere out on the patio on a beautiful October day. Service and food were outstanding!!“
