“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!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“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.“

“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.“

“Merci was pleasant and knowledgeable. Great job!“

“Ordered out and the food was very very good. The kitchen didn't get my wife's burger right, they added onions, but the management made it right. Other than that the food was exceptional. I had the smokestack burger and it was very delicious. Make sure you save room for bread pudding too!“

“Room 39 was the perfect spot for my only night in Kansas City. I made the mistake of deciding to go vegetarian, right before I visited a city famous for its bbq meat! So glad I found this gem of a restaurant. I had a perfect table by the window, with the radiator under the table making it cozy and toasty. The cocktails and dishes were fantastic - two Boulevardiers, a Brussels sprout soup, gnocchi with goat cheese, and the flourless chocolate cake with Earl Grey tea. My server Tory was terrific. I can’t recommend it highly enough.“

“Great food, better staff, good prices and AWESOME food!! Drinks are really unique too!!“

“Excellent fried Brie & service.“

“Very cool dining and cocktails are superb!“

“Great time throwing axes give it a try.“

“Very pleasantly surprised by the fantastic entrees! We decided to give wandering vine a try for date night. I did a flight of their whites with distinction. The wines were different and I appreciate that there’s so much variation on the wine menu. I would’ve loved to see some additional fuller body whites in the wine by the glass options but still they have some really interesting choices available. We had the lemon ricotta focaccia, strip steak and the lobster cavatelli. The focaccia was well-made, though the tomato chutney is lost with the ricotta and basil. Overall, it was tasty, but I’d probably try a different starter next time. There was a bit of a weight for our entrées, but as I said, when they arrived, we were quite surprised. The steak was absolute perfection. The outside had a flavorful crust while the interior was a beautiful medium rare. The Demi glaze on top was a nice touch. As for the sides, we had the mushrooms and potatoes. I didn’t get the Madeira aïoli from the mushrooms and the potatoes needed additional seasoning, but both were decent. The lobster cavatelli was outstanding. I was full, but kept sneaking a few more bites because it was too good to resist. Typically beats are my least favorite food on the face of this planet, but the golden beats mixed with the asparagus and sage cream sauce went well together. We finished with some coffees as we were too full to try a dessert. We will definitely be back.“

“My daughter vegan and myself non vegan enjoyed this restaurant equally. Amazing food and service. I can’t wait to return 💞“

“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“

“We attended a Valentine's Day special event hosted by Chef Jeremy. It consisted of a five-course menu with an optional wine pairing. Aside from the late start, the evening went perfectly! The courses were delicious along with the expertly-picked wine. We'll be back again for his next event.“

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

“My favorite go to neighborhood bar. I’ve been going there since 1992.“

“First time and I know will not be my last time. For day 3 of being opened everyone and everything ran smoothly. The servers all had a smile and very welcoming. The food was delicious and the wine 🍷 tasting was a fun experience. I can’t wait to go back. Thank you for helping to make my birthday 🎁 special and yummy.“

“Far out place to hang for live music.“

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

“Awesome employees and great prices“

“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“

“Relaxed, chilled environment“

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

“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!!!“

“Excellent in every respect!!!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“After spending fourteen years in KC, we developed a handful of staple restaurants, and BRGR was definitely one of our weekly go-tos. The quality and consistency of the food, paired with exceptional customer service, kept us coming back every week. Bread & Butter Concepts has set a high standard across all their restaurants, and BRGR is no exception. My latest takeout experience was another shining example of their commitment to excellence—Matzumi and Saye provided such genuine and authentic customer service, truly showcasing emotional intelligence. I can’t wait for my next visit to KC and will definitely be back to BRGR. Thank you for bringing bliss to National Hamburger Day!“

“Always a solid choice for lunch. Tried the firecracker shrimp tacos for the first time, and they were delicious! My co-worker said the jambalaya was seasoned well. Their hot wings are always on point. Service seemed a bit off on our visit, but it's not always like that. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'll be back soon just for those firecracker shrimp tacos!“

“I waited months to come here for my birthday and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was perfect-intimate, warm, welcoming, and unique. I loved having the open oven fire right there to watch as we ate. The food is all local and absolutely delicious.“

“Love EVERYTHING about LWD!!!“

“Decent chopped salad with salmon and burger“

“This restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere and impeccable service. Thier wine list was curated by the gods. However, while the food was all prepared correctly and they provided everything they said they would, the food lacked personality or anything that make the dishes unique to ocean prime. I had the surf n turf, ahi tuna, oysters, and sea bass, but none of the items stood out even though they were cooked perfectly. While the food was good, I cannot recommend spending this kind of money without receiving a fresh, memorable experience.“

“I came in as a single diner, the service IMPECCABLE. The food IMMACULATE. The atmosphere was light and casual in the mid day with a lot of natural light from big windows but could be more romantic at night with the lighting. This might be my new favorite place.“

“Fantastic experience for us and our friends dining on Friday night. All four of us are KC locals for many years but had never tried Story and were blown away. We loved the size of the restaurant and attention to detail. Then the food- simply delightful. From the starter salads to the main courses (the short rib was delicious, the salmon dish also received high praise) everything fantastic. We did also stick around for dessert and the olive oil cake was extremely unique in a good way and highly recommended. Wine list was fairly good (some familiar bottles seemed very pricey (in my opinion!) compared to other restaurants - Daou Soul of a Lion, and the Chateau Montelena Estate bottle they had, etc) but a nice mix of old and new world reds and whites. By the glass had some things normally not found by the glass, but we went with a bottle of St. Emilion for the table to go with the short ribs. Overall a fantastic experience and one we will do again!“

“We had our wedding and celebration at The Summit Grill in Lee’s Summit last night. WOW!!! I cannot give this place and their employees enough kudos. Shana, the event coordinator was exceptional and very responsive. The food was so good….everyone raved about how much they loved it. We did an appetizer buffet and chose a veggie tray, spin dip, chicken wings, chicken sliders, cheeseburger sliders and steak street tacos. The two dedicated bartenders we had were the very best! We had the back bar and outdoor area with a fire pit. It was above and beyond what we expected. I give this place the highest recommendation for any event. Also, their happy hour can’t be beat! Thank you Summit Grill for making our wedding celebration phenomenal!“
