15 Best Seafood Restaurants in Overland Park

“Nice place, good food, and great service but the light fun atmosphere just tanked when the manager walked by. Not what you want to see on a Saturday night at this price point! It was actually awkward to experience the way the manager treated the employees. He literally yelled across the room at the bartender for no identifiable reason. Sometimes it’s watching the way someone treats others that ruins a nice time more than anything. It really is a nice place with good food and great service hopefully this part of the place can change. Appears mine isn’t the first review that involves the manager so hopefully they will fix this issue.“

“The BEST Asian restaurant in the Northland! The food is absolutely amazing—every dish we’ve tried has been outstanding. The sushi is fresh and delicious, and the attention to detail is top-notch. You have to try the crab wontons—they’re a must! We just had the Tokyo crispy chicken, and it was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Honestly, I haven’t had a single thing here that I didn’t love. Chris, the owner, always greets us with a warm smile, and he and his staff make you feel truly welcome every time. Exceptional food, outstanding service, and such a friendly atmosphere—Saki is hands down our favorite spot!“

“Cameron our waiter was amazing. Everything exceeded our expectations.“

“Pleasant wait staff. Food was delicious!“

“Love the food, atmosphere, and service. The last time I ordered a dish that was a bed of rice covered with chicken fajitas and smoother with queso cheese. It was to die for!!!“

“Pretty decent burrito. I went out of the box and got the cheeseburger burrito. It was pretty good. I would have liked more of the sauce, and the ingredients mixed together a little more. It seemed to have layers. I will probably try again.“

“our server Ling was the best. the food was delicious with the right size portion. we will be going back“

“The best!!!! Destiny was the best waitress, she knows her stuff for sure and congratulations on getting married in 4 days. The food is AMAZING!!! I can’t recommend this place enough!! GO EAT THERE PEOPLE!!!!“

“Definitely recommend! We had the crab dip: (it was a special for the night) it was amazing filled with real crab and creamy cheese, ribeye with smashed potatoes: it was cooked perfectly with a unique flavor from the marinade, it did have a little more fat than I like but it was still very good, smashed potatoes were fresh made Yukons, yum!
My son had the burger and fries, he gave it a 8/10 with an extra side of the Mac and cheese, 100% recommend this, so creamy with a very unique flavor! Carrot Cake with warm homemade frosting is a must, key lime pie with fresh whipped cream yes please! Martinis and margaritas were go also! Will for sure go back when I’m back in town. The service was very good, the building is old and very dark but don’t let that discourage you from trying it.“

“the food was delicious, the service fantastic, the atmosphere great and the owner Derek was so friendly! we'll definitely be going back!“

“I just celebrated my birthday last Sunday with all my friends. It was good food excellent service and good atmosphere! I highly recommend Yaya’s.“

“We’ve actually never dined in at this place either. It seen they are more often pick up and to go.

very lack of dine in, but its quite place, we had our food with to go too.

And in a way, that makes everything

I’m about to say feel even more genuine.

without the restaurant atmosphere adding to the experience, what remains is the food itself, and the people behind it.

From the very first pickup, you can feel that this is a place with real warmth.

The woman at the front often alongside her husband has this natural, easygoing energy that immediately puts you at ease.

She’s a good conversationalist too, and over time, she even remembers what you like to order

a small gesture, but it makes you feel recognized, seen. She doesn’t have to try to impress you; she simply makes you feel welcome.

Of course, there are busy moments when she and her husband are running around and might not greet you right away

and that’s completely understandable. It’s a small, family run place, not a polished chain.

But even in those moments, they always offer the best smiles.

If something is ever forgotten in your order, they don’t just let it slide; they communicate promptly, and sometimes even call to have it delivered to your home. You can feel that it’s done out of genuine care, not obligation.

The food carries the same kind of attention. It’s thoughtful, comforting, and consistent.

Nothing feels rushed or careless. Every dish is prepared with intention, and even on busy days, the quality remains steady.

It’s the kind of cooking that quietly earns your trust, and over time, that trust grows into appreciation.

I sometimes read reviews that label this place as “bad,” and I honestly can’t understand them. Some feel less like honest feedback and more like people arriving already frustrated, ready to criticize instead of noticing the effort and care. There’s a difference between pointing out issues and dismissing a good, hardworking restaurant outright.

This isn’t a restaurant trying to be flashy or trendy. It doesn’t pretend to be something it isn’t. It’s a small, family-run Chinese spot doing its best and doing it with sincerity, warmth, and consistency. Those qualities don’t always show up in pictures or quick judgments, but they matter more than anything once you experience them.

I will absolutely be coming back. Not because the place dazzles you, but because it makes you feel genuinely welcome, and the food quietly reminds you why it’s worth returning. That combination — care in the food and in the people is what makes a small restaurant unforgettable.“

“First time in this place today, and we love it. Foods were freshly cooked, and still very hot when they serve it. Neat and tidy little place .... offers everything, from catering to deliveries, and you can do it online or by phone. We will surely be back very soon.“

“The butter chicken is delicious. There are a lot of options on the menu, even picky eaters will have options. The staff is also very kind and helpful! Can't wait to go back.“

“Had an amazing dinner at Firebirds with my dad, brother, and girlfriend. The steak wasn’t cooked right, but honestly the staff made it worth it. Our waiter Daniel was really engaged and just made the whole thing better. When we needed the manager Dallas, she had our meals remade and took care of us. Both of them were just genuinely nice people. Definitely recommend Firebirds.“
