“Great service and great people. Good was good also.“

“We were staying overnight at The Fairfield Inn, and The Summit Grill was recommended to us for a dinner location. We were pleasantly surprised at the deliciously amazing food, quick service, and also our attentive waiter, Travis. I highly recommend the Traditional Pot Roast, and my husband recommends the Chicken-Fried Chicken. If we are in Gladstone again, we will defintely return.“

“The service was on point and that double burger basket was just what I have been used to as a kid. Great place in a small space! If you are around here, I recommend it! : )“

“I cannot express enough how amazed I am with the customer service. Yesterday (Super Bowl Sunday—-GO CHIEFS!) I placed an online order. My pick up time was at 5 (earliest I could get because I waited too long to place the order) I arrive early hoping it would be done earlier because I had people arriving at my house and I didn’t want to miss the game. When I arrived it was packed on people waiting. I assumed I was going to be there for awhile so asked if I could order a beer. They got me a beer and a chair. As I sat there for over an hour (it went past my pick up time) I saw all of the employees working very hard trying their best to fill the orders quickly. Some of the customers were being quite rude to the girls up front as the customers were upset their food wasn’t ready. The girls did an amazing job keeping everyone calm they would simply just smile and tell them they are working on it. I was so impressed how these girls handled themselves not one time did I hear them get snippy with a customer even tho I’m sure they wanted to. It was always a smile with a polite response. I was there almost til the end and a guy started yelling at the girls and still it was a smile and polite response. I got my food and made it for the game and the food was delicious as always!“

“OMG my First Time here & it was 🔥🔥!“

“Applebee's Bar and Grill is a Kansas City-bases restaurant chain. I would almost call it glorified bar food. This is not a criticism it's actually very good. For me it's sort of a comfort food that I turn to to recapture some good memories.

We particularly like their "2 for $25" menu where my wife and I can get an entree with a side and an appetizer to share. We like their spinach and artichoke dip.“

“Food was great! Service was great. Quick in and out. Prices were high for the portion sizes. I expected the trash can nachos to be a much larger portion for $17. They were good. Tacos were good. Ceviche was good. Just super pricy for the portion sizes.“

“ACRE is amazing! The atmosphere is perfect, and the food is exceptional—easily the best in Kansas City. Highly recommend it, 10/10!“

“Nick & Jake's is an absolute class act. I had a small issue last night, and the manager came right out and took care of it with total professionalism. I've eaten here a number of times now, and this, along with great food is the reason why! I'll keep coming back again and again to a restaurant that is so committed to its customers!“

“Maybe KC's first Michelin star? Probably too soon to say, but this is a dining experience like nothing else local. Every single item was perfection, and purposeful, and delicious. Beautiful atmosphere, and excellent service too. The owner makes a point to visit every table and he seems like a really great guy (and certainly a stellar chef and restauranteur). My favorite thing was probably the chicken wings. Nothing pedestrian about them. I also loved the yuzu sake.“

“Great customer service by the staff. Amazing food. I mean really really good. I had raw oysters, small Caesar, buttermilk fried chicken and a burger to go.“

“My boyfriend and I visited for our anniversary. our service was phenomenal, cocktails tasty, and the was in our top favorite meals we have ever eaten! He had the Pork Chop and I had Prime Rib! Very Good!!“

“Stunning space & fantastic food & staff. Must have a great local beef connection because it’s priced perfectly & very reasonably for the area“

“We traveled from South Carolina to visit family and they took us to Brewer's Kitchen. The food was exceptional. Each burger option is unique, fresh cut fries seasoned just right. The fact that everything is locally sourced is a plus in my book. The staff was friendly and caring. Give Brewer's Kitchen a try and you'll go back.“

“Amazing food and great atmosphere!!“

“We were passing thru and staying at Best Western Premier. The desk clerk recommended Conrad’s! We went there and so glad we did! Claire was our waitress and she was amazing! Hubby has allergies and she went back twice to make sure he was ok!! We shared the Blue Chips appetizer…with a couple cold ones. OMG….they were soooo good! We had regular BBQ sauce instead of Buffalo. Amazing! And you get so much!! Definitely enough to share! Then we both ordered the grilled chicken wrap with ranch dressing. That also was so very good! I brought 1/2 of mine back to motel for breakfast in the morning. For a side I had steamed broccoli which was excellent. Hubby had the mixed vegetables. It is a casual but nice place!! Claire was awesome and so was the food!“

“Tonight we went to celebrate an accomplishment by my teenage daughter. I am a member of a Northland restaurant group and I was told to ask for Jamie because she is highly recommended. She was our server and my gosh, she went above and beyond. She mad our night wonderful and my daughter could NOT have been happier. Absolutely beaming. Thank you Stroud’s and Jamie for giving us a wonderful night that we won’t soon forget.“

“Fish and chips were amazing!“

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

“Shout out to the Culver’s employee who made my beautiful strawberry fields salad this evening! It was PERFECTION!! Not only was the salad beautiful, but everything was Super Fresh! The lettuce was so very fresh & crisp; the strawberries were perfectly ripe, juicy, & freshly sliced; the grilled chicken was a generous portion & still warm, but not so hot as to wilt the lettuce. The pecans & blue cheese chunks weren’t soggy. Perfection! 😁Thanks so much!“

“We were greeted by Lara. It was a pleasant experience. Order came quickly. It is child-friendly.“

“Ordered Pizza and a Salad for the crew at work and it was amazing as always.“

“Had a great lunch today at the bar with Kylie. She was very personable & fun to talk with. We had the French Dip & the KC Cuban. Both were amazing. They have a very expansive drink menu. Last and not least is the history of the building and the vault!“

“Just discovered and it’s great for a diner style meal.“

“I like this location better than riverside the staff is always friendly and the food has been good“

“The lasagna was impressive. Full of flavor. Definitely a must try“

“Scott’s catered an event for our baseball team last night! There are plenty of BBQ joints in KC, but this is going to move to the top of my list! It was SO good!!“

“Brooke was our waitress and she fantastic“

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! Our group of 14 arrived here today at the Shawnee location for lunch. We were met by friendly staff and seated right away. Once we ordered our food, it arrived quickly! We were impressed! All 14 orders were correct, served hot and fresh, and so good!! Great size portions! The service was absolutely great! Refills were quick. The atmosphere is so fun! We all enjoyed our food arriving by train. The kids had a great time. and only 2 little ones had a nugget and few fries left. Everyone devoured their food. It's definitely a must experience! We will definitely be back! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Great experience for lunch and a romantic dinner.“

“Came here for the first time for date night and will be back again! We ordered half the menu and were hugely impressed by everything we received. Cocktails are ice cold & dangerously tasty. The flavors & quality of the food is unmatched, from the salads to the bolognese and flank steak. We highly recommend the Korean empanadas! We enjoyed the modern yet relaxed atmosphere & music. It was refreshing to be somewhere where nothing felt rushed. This is a place to sit, relax and enjoy your company, take your time eating, drinking and enjoying the space. We are already recommending this hidden gem to friends and look forward to our next visit.“

“I went here for the first time for a date night and it did not disappoint. The food was delightful and the portion sizes were spot on. Dalton was our friendly and attentive server. Finally, the atmosphere was cozy, quaint, and not too loud. I recommend!“

“Vivilore has the most amazing patio garden. great for a leisurely lunch or cocktails. Bring a few girlfriends and enjoy the delightful setting and good food.“

“My wife and I enjoy eating there every time we travel to Liberty. Food is unique and very tasty and filling. A great value. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is comfy. Thangs everyone. 👍“

“What an amazing dining experience. The staff is fantastic. Had the pleasure of meeting Chef Mike.“

“Where to begin??? My husband and I wanted to try somewhere different today, and we were NOT disappointed. First bite of that burger and, sheeesh. I was in heaven. We both were. The wings? Chefs kiss. We went out on a whim and split The F.R.Y as well (not to be confused with fry, you gotta spell it out - I only know because we were corrected lol) and that was pretty good too! Different, but good! The young man who took our order was friendly, and the order was ready, hot and fresh in about 15 minutes - keep in mind it was cold out, so nobody was really there, and the seating is outdoor only, which don’t get me wrong, didn’t stop us from going, but definitely looks like it would be a total vibe in the nicer weather. I had a great first impression for sure, and definitely will be returning.“

“My husband and I just stayed here to attend the Kansas City Symphony concert featuring Cody Fry. This is a gorgeous hotel in a perfect location to experience everything downtown KC has to offer. We were blown away by the amenities and friendly staff! The Stillwater breakfast buffet was delicious. We will definitely be back!“

“Great little bar tucked away in Platte Woods. One of the last to allow smoking! The food is amazing, and very large portions. The drinks are great and they have a wide variety to choose from! Open 7 days a week with specials every day! The atmosphere is like a "Cheers" bar, go check them out!“

“This was my first time here!! My boyfriend and I booked the showing on Valentines weekend. Lonnie’s was a fantastic experience. Wow! Lonnie and his band were amazing. The service from Joshua and Kenny made the experience really enjoyable and memorable, too. I cannot wait to take my friends and family here. Lonnie was really kind and interacted with everyone-very genuine and happy! You can tell that he truly enjoys and cares about those who come to watch his shows- and he loves Jazz with all his heart!“

“They have a good selection of Music. They should try to get “ An Honest Year “ to come up to KC, they play the East Coast and Florida, but they have places to stay in KC… They’re young but in their twenties and would bring in some younger crowd…“

“Love your show....Great food...Great people...Support your locals... Always“

“The new onion petals are delish. They cook the nice and crispy. We had the pot roast bowl and it never disappoints. Service was great. Prices are getting a little much but for the most part it was worth it.“

“My wife and I stopped in for the first time in a few years. We were seated after a bit of a wait. It is after all a Friday night in a shopping district. Our server was bright and cheery. She had a warming smile and happy persona. we placed our drink order. Shortly thereafter our food order was taken. I ordered a flat iron steak and a baker. My wife ordered soup and salad. Our dinner was served fairly quickly. Unfortunately my steak was quite a bit overcooked, so I requested one that wasn't over done. When the replacement steak was delivered, it was a bit overdone as well. I was hungry so I kept it. The manager came by to talk to us. I've spent time in a kitchen or two and I understand a dinner rush. The manager stopped at our table and wanted to assure us that this was not acceptable. She made things right, but wasn't needed or expected. I felt bad for our server because she probably feared she wasn't going to get tipped for a fairly big check. She was pretty wrong. I tipped correctly and arguably better than normal. Our return visit ended up being a great experience. We met a couple of wonderful human beings. Had some pretty good food. And, of course, my wife and I got to connect.“

“Great Food and service. Would come here again.“

“Awful!!! The chicken was grease soaked & pink, the noodles were overcooked, the Alfredo sauce had so much grease and oil sitting on top. I took a few bites & hours later threw up! The "manager" was supposed to call me for a refund and that never happened. I will never be back or ever recommend. Horrible customer service - thanks for the hour wait for the meal delivery as well as food that was not edible. Also the no call back "to make it right"“

“My grandson loves Culver’s!“

“Had dinner there last night. Great cheesbugers and wonderful onion rings. Highly recommend.“

“Please learn to secure your fountain drink lids . I eat here 2 times per week and have spilled 2 out of 12.

Your tenderloin sandwich and Philly cheese steak are not
listed . Both are good“
