“Had a great breakfast this morning. I highly recommend Flapjacks 'n more.....This was the new Shawnee, Ks location“

“We hosted my son’s 8th Birthday here and opted to include a private party room and the outdoor patio was an added bonus. Our party host Dana was very attentive and the kids all had a blast! The food buffet was ready and hot, our server got all the kids drinks right and was quick to refill and get us anything else we needed. Keagan also stepped in and helped when my son’s game bracelet wouldn’t scan. I would highly recommend this establishment for your party needs. Well worth the cost and not having to clean up after!“

“Awesome service from Maddie!!“

“I had a really pleasant experience with my server, Sohrab during my visit. He was very friendly, made a bunch of jokes that I really enjoyed, kept our drinks refilled, and made sure we had fries at the table. Whenever I had a question, he answered it really well and was very helpful when I was trying to decide which burger to get. He genuinely made the experience enjoyable and I really appreciated his service.

However, I was disappointed by the manager, Tyler’s behavior. At one point, the manager came over while my server was talking to us and interrupted the conversation to tell him about an angry review that had been left about him. Later, the manager came over again in the middle of another conversation and said something negative to the server. I felt uncomfortable because these conversations were happening directly in front of us while we were trying to enjoy our meal.

Throughout the meal, I could also hear the manager yelling across the restaurant while talking to other employees. He was sitting in a booth on his phone and was also on his phone while walking around the restaurant. From a customer’s perspective, this came across as very unprofessional.

Overall, I really enjoyed my server and thought he did a great job. I just wish the management had shown the same level of professionalism and respect toward the employees and customers.“

“You've been missing out if you haven't been to Winstead's lately! They've really stepped up their game with their classic foods, now using real grass-fed, grass-finished beef, and they cook all their fried items in beef tallow. All I can say is I appreciate it, and it tastes so much better. Thanks for the change, Winstead's, it's appreciated.“

“The young cashiers were very polite! Refreshing!“

“Love your youth golf program. My kids have played every summer!“

“This was my first visit to Revel Sports Tavern, and I enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and the place had a relaxed sports-bar feel. It was easy to settle in, watch the game, and enjoy some food while catching up with friends.“

“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.“

“Andrew and his team in the Market Grill are amazing! We came in on Saturday to feed our football team in between games and they did not disappoint! Food was fresh and tasted great. They let us spread out in the top seating area so our kids and families could sit and eat comfortably while we warmed up from the freezing rain and cold. Highly recommend them and will plan on stopping again the next time we play football nearby!“

“First time there, absolutely fantastic! Gorgeous looking plates of delicious food.“

“Great people, food and atmosphere. Thanks for a lovely dinner this evening. It was well worth the price too.“

“I joined the waitlist with my husband, 10-20 minute wait. The service was excellent, Jayden made sure we were all taken care of and she was super helpful with all the questions we had because we’ve never been there before. There is a variety of things to choose from but I love that they serve gluten free food. Very good place to go to!“

“Great food, beer and service! We've gone once a week for trivia for about 2 years now !“

“Great service, friendly staff and I loved my sandwich. They have the best bread!“

“Alison and I enjoyed breakfast this past Sunday at McGregor's Butcher & Bistro. While we were enjoying our breakfast sandwiches, Tom, aka Tommy the Butcher, told us we needed to try their restaurant, which is located right next to the Butcher & Deli. He mentioned that every Tuesday night, they have Burger specials. For $18, you get a burger of your choice, fries, and draft beer or, as in my case, a soda. It just so happened that we were out last night and decided to stop in. I have to say it was one of the best dining experiences we've had this year. Our server, Sarah, was excellent, helped us with tons of advice, and truly made us feel special. Alison enjoyed the Mushroom Cheeseburger, and I had the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger. They were both phenomenal. The meat all comes from their own butcher shop. The burgers tasted great, and the bacon was crisp and to die for. The fries were also fantastic, especially the truffle fries. We also enjoyed an appetizer of Gralic Steak Bites, and they gave us some warm, locally made Farm To Market bread with some house-made butter that was awesome. Lastly, I want to add that the entire experience was relaxed, and you can taste the care and love they put into the dishes. With the check, they also gave us each a complimentary shortbread butter cookie that was out of this world. Alison and I would like to thank Tom and Sarah, and everyone else we interacted with at McGregor's. We look forward to visiting them again in the near future. It's truly a special small business that we wish we had discovered sooner. Sidenote: The Deli and Butcher side is open Tuesday-Sunday, 8:30 am to 3:00pm. I also look forward to trying a deli sandwich in the future. Tommy told me I have to try the Pastrami on my next visit.“

“We enjoyed the food. The wait was around 40 minutes. We had 4 different dishes. The turkey sausage gravy was surprisingly delicious. The chicken sausage too!

Our meal for 4 people was around 95.00. Definitely a delicious treat.“

“We had the most incredible time at Topgolf Overland Park! The service was phenomenal! Shout out to Lexi (Manager) and her wonderful team for making our experience so special! We brought 3 people who had never been to Topgolf before and let me tell you, it was a night we will never forget! One of the people in our party was celebrating his birthday! They made him feel so special by doing a birthday shout out and gave us free dessert! I am blown away by the friendliness and consideration we were shown. Thank you again to the Topgolf team! I am so sad I do not remember our servers name, but she was a gem! I think it was Nivara! Ahhh, I hope I am close. She deserves a lot of credit! ♥️ We can’t wait to come back again!“

“Pretty good restaurant. Just wish they had more side options for kids and other people. I ordered the fried shrimp with fries. The fries were just okay. Could use some seasoning and salt. Shrimp was pretty good. At least they had ranch. Bathrooms were clean. The croissants were absolutely amazing though!“

“In from Russell, KS & had the most amazing omelet & potatoes!!! … topped it off with a mimosa!!! … great way to start a day!!!“

“We had so much fun with Tiffany, our waitress. The drinks and food were awesome, however the teens showed up for homecoming. I really enjoyed my quesadilla and the beer was ice cold! The drink in the pic is a pineapple upside down shot, it was yummy!“

“A group of us had lunch at Becks today. I would definitely give it a thumbs up. everyone got something different to eat from burgers, fish, Rueben and chicken fried chicken dinner and chicken fried steak. Our waitress Bea was great.!!! Would hope to get her again when I'm there.“

“Date night. Great place to go. Huge selection of drinks and awesome food. I had a salad with salmon that was one of the vest salads i have ever had and my boyfriend had a bourbon burger and said it was "perfect". We had the loaded spud app and shared the pretzel dessert....the best beginning and ending we could want. Our server, Heather, was so sweet and talked us through a lot of our options. She was super attentive. We will definitely be heading back!“
