“We skipped the food as we stopped in during the taco festival, but holy awesome service Batman! Victoria (maybe Veronica?) and Brie were awesome bartenders. Very fun and personable. Kept us in margaritas 🍹 and were an absolute joy! Looking forward to going back.
What food we did see looked amazing. Everything was beautiful and really made us want to try it.
Go say hi to the ladies at the bar and have a jello shot!”
“Tonight was our for visit but will not be our last. The food was outstanding and the service was excellent.”

Everyone was happy, friendly, and full of recommendations. The drinks were absolutely perfect and the food was next level good. This place is our new go to in KC. Go Now and do not WAIT”

“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"”

“So it is Monday July 14 and we just left Joe’s BBQ and my wife told me that my BBQ is better the Joe’s any-day. Sunday night we went to Q39 and wow what a difference. My wife and I both had the 3 meat and sides of beans,and vegetables. Every single thing we had was great. Chicken(white meat) had good flavor but chicken is chicken. Sausage was full of flavor with the peppers. Ribs were fall off the bone and didn’t need sauce. The pulled pork was really soft and melted in the mouth good. So at this point I have to say if you are in Kansas City for BBQ go to Q39 last because nothing compares the it at least in Kansas City anyway.”
“A total of 12 hungry guys showed up after a long day of golf. We had traveled 5+ hours to the area for a nice long weekend of brotherhood. At the time this place was chosen to eat we didn't know how bad we actually needed it ! Food was amazing. Service amazing. Scott himself came out of the back to talk to all the patrons. Ended up giving us a mini tour of the smoke sanctuary. Beyond awesome. Bought some spicy sausage to bring home for the family. Worth your time, money and effort to go to this place. I will be back somehow some way. ... - Tony (Springfield, IL)”
“In town for the week and looking for something with heart, this place popped up as a local favorite and now I understand why. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine kindness and warm energy that you could feel in the room.
It was a little busy, which is always a good sign, but we scored a sidewalk table and that is totally my vibe. The Baba falafel on pita was absolutely soul satisfying. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and made with love.
Inside, the decor is beyond charming. Whoever designed the space clearly knows how to mix color and texture with personality. Honestly, I want them to come decorate my house next.
Grateful for this gem. It made our visit that much sweeter.”

“Thank you Mano and Barbara for making Gene and Jeffrey’s marriage celebration a wonderful night. We appreciate you and your incredible restaurant.”
“The visit was amazing! Our server (James), table 102, was fantastic!!! There were 5 us us, and he was patient, made great suggestions, and checked back a couple of times to see if everything was good. Portion sizes for lunch 👍 Very friendly staff”

“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.”
“Took my staff for our annual dinner and they knocked it out of the park! Taylor our server and Jason the bartender plus all the other staff treated us like family. 5 gold stars!”
“Wings are always superb, onion rings are great and they have THE best beans. You really can't go wrong with any of their BBQ meats and their Cole slaw is also very good.”

“The Town Topic Hamburgers early morning 5am crowd is truly one of the last great American dining experiences. The three egg cheese omelet with shatteringly crispy perfectly cooked hash browns was a transcendent experience, and I wasn’t even hungover. The atmosphere and professional staff lend further into the experience as one that is both memorable and delicious all around.”
“I came from NC and am currently staying in KC for a while. One evening, after working late and feeling pretty hungry, I headed to a nearby burger spot called Winsted. The server was incredibly kind and welcoming. I ordered the Double Winsted and onion rings—and they were exactly what I like.
Most local American burgers tend to be a bit too heavy for me, but Winsted keeps it simple and really nails the basics. And the onion rings? Hands down the best I’ve ever had. Besides Gates, this has become my new go-to spot around here.”
“Great food and drinks. Excellent service and a fun atmosphere.”
“Great food. Nice ambience. Excellent service from our waiter, Scott. I highly recommend this restaurant!”

Takeout Restaurants
“I remember hearing about this place years ago but never went. It popped up on my FYP on TikTok so I decided to give it a try. My family and I drove down on a Saturday around 12:30. Not sure where it was exactly, we ended up driving by it and having to turn around. There is only street parking available so we parked 1/2 a block up and walked down. We weren’t the only ones who did. The steady flow of people coming in and out was a lot. Good for business. They only accept cash, which is good to know beforehand. We ordered the famous pork tenderloin, a cheeseburger and fries. Everything is alacarte. Which is also good to know beforehand.
The tenderloin had good flavor but was fried very hard. My husband enjoyed his but said it was too spicy, he had the hot sauce. Overall, it was good. Glad we finally tried it.”
“I'm not so sure about the Westport location after witnessing an employee kind of heavy set with dreads died at the tips snorting cocaine in the back by the dumpsters and selling drugs he had to be the cook and I just do not want any fairy dust on my waffles or my chicken I rather go braid water or bite the curb that is not what I expected to see when pulling up and I definitely don't want to spend my money with an establishment that knowingly hires drug addicts”

“Burgers are good, onion rings were excellent. Last time we went, they were out of onion rings. This time, we called before we went and was told they had onion rings. Twenty minutes later as we were placing our order, we were told they just ran out of onion rings. We left. How do you run out of onion rings? It’s really simple. If you consistently run out, order more. We will not be going back.”
“Absolutely Amazing! This is the best bbq I have ever had from a restaurant hands down. I got the brisket sandwich with a side of beans and I can not wait to try everything else on the menu. Even the pickles are Amazing. You have to try this place for yourself. You won't regret it.”
“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.”
“Wonderful atmosphere yummy food truck outside. The energy from Iowa State was intoxicating wonderful place.”
“Glad to find a place in KC with a full vegan menu—hard to come by so far… Staff were accommodating with custom requests, like keeping sauces on the side and mixing vegan and non-vegan options for our group. The pretzel appy was freshly-made. The burger wasn’t the best I’ve ever had, but the beet patty was unique, generously loaded with toppings, and overall pretty tasty.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Used to live across the street years ago. Watched the city bus driver regularly jump out of the driver's seat at the corner stop, run in and grab his to-go breakfast in the mornings. If I didn't already know they had the best breakfast around, I suppose that would have been a good clue. Lovely family too. Don't miss the chile verde pork, and say hi to Augustin for me.”
“French Custard is the best neighborhood ice cream spot that you could ask for! They have amazing rotating seasonal flavors - as well as go to favorites. Not only are they amazing at what they do, they also donate a portion of each month's proceeds to local organizations who give back to our community. Anytime the weather warms up above 60, the line is often outside of the door, but the wait is always worth it.”
“we had a great experience I'll definitely be back!”
“I went with my sister and brother in law to Eddie Vs for my birthday and it was an incredible evening of the most delicious food! I also have never had a restaurant make me feel so special on my birthday - they provided us with complimentary sparking cider, a small tasting of one of their appetizers AND the most amazing dessert I have ever had. Plus there was a birthday card and confetti on the table. This was my 3rd time here and all 3 times the food was simply divine! Our waiter was exceptionally attentive. It was top to bottom a magnificent dining experience. *Oh and they have complimentary valet parking too!! HIGHLY recommend Eddie V's for any special occasion.”

“We recently celebrated our anniversary here. We started with prosciutto wrapped mozzarella. It was delicious. For dinner i had the sea bass. It was the best seafood I’ve ever had at a restaurant. My husband had a bone in ribeye.It was very tender and cooked perfectly. The sides perfectly complemented our meal. Thy served us a beautiful dessert for our anniversary. All the food was perfectly prepared. The table was beautifully decorated for our anniversary. Our server Fred was very attentive and friendly. I will definitely ask for him to be our server next time we are there.”
“Awesome food! Great service! Awesome atmosphere! Set in Union station, Kansas City. This is a nice place to go for cocktails and then dinner but save room for they have really good desserts!”
“Staff, dinner, wine, and ambiance were all amazing. Great NYE dinner! The scallops were cooked perfectly! Highly recommend to all!”

“Aside from parking, this place is really great. I love their pho and their fried rice. I have been here twice, and the second time I brought my friend from out of state, and he enjoyed the curry and the Vietnamese iced coffee.
I also doordash from here a lot, they never get my order wrong :)”
“Vibes & service are incredibly important to me and this shop does great at both.
TC has an identity that is much different than other shops around town. I get tired of modern, sterile, cafeteria style shops.
TC has a warm western / homey ambiance that provides coffee goers with a space to relax and enjoy other people’s presence.
As far as quality of their products go, it’s evident that they pay close attention to detail. Their roasting partner Marcell makes high quality coffee !!”
“I visited for the first time this past Saturday for an author event. I accidentally showed up early and was super embarrassed, but the staff was super friendly! They encouraged me to stay and hang out until event time and offered to get me a drink despite not technically being open. The latte was amazingly delicious, so I decided to take a lunch to go after the event. I'm a sucker for a good grilled cheese and tomato soup. The grilled cheese was made with 2 different kinds of cheese on a panini press! It was delicious! I'm giving this place 5 stars across the board. I will definitely be back and will be bringing friends! <3”
“My husband and I had the best experience at this restaurant. The food was good as always. During our meal my husband had to use the rest room. He has some dementia and can’t walk very well. Unfortunately we were sitting at a table which was on the complete opposite side of the restaurant from the rest room. The server noticed our dilemma and said she would guide him over to the restroom. She was back immediately. I said, “Oh, he won’t be able to find his way back to this table.” The server told me not to worry about it. The restaurant manager had taken him over and would wait and bring him back. That is undoubtedly the kindest thing that has ever happened to us in a restaurant. Thank you to the wonderful people at the RoanRidge Texas Roadhouse.”
“My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary at The Melting Pot, and the staff was amazing and the service was great! They made our anniversary so special!! I can not thank them enough. The manager surprised us with chocolate covered strawberries, our table decorated with roses, and gave me a rose! Our hostess made us a special two year plate with a delicious raspberry sauce. I can’t recommend this place enough!”
“The food is really good. The Egusi didn't taste like Egusi though. I want to taste the Cassava Leaf/Potato Greens since I know that the lady is Liberian.
The place is painted beautifully but all the tables are dirty and broken.
The online prices are wrong. The good is very expensive.”
“Great food! Perfectly prepared. Kudos to the wait staff handling a busy Saturday night crowd with the addition of prom goers. Great job. (And the young people were amazing.)”
“Went to Barbacoa, 5500 Troost, for brunch Sunday morning, what a delightful experience. I ordered Monie’s plate. It was mouthwatering. The serving was so generous, that I took half of it home. The corn tortillas were soft and warm enough to make a taco, the beans were flavorful and not spicy, the carnitas were fall apart tender and very tasty, perfectly fried potatoes, and fluffy scrambled eggs. The salsa was very tasty and not overly spicy. The coffee was even tasty (Costco Kirkland medium roast). Unlike some breakfast restaurants, the background music was so low and mellow (helps with digestion), I could hear my friends talk. We have to go back during the week for dinner. UPDATE - I forgot one very important thing, the service was excellent. Our group was one of two in the restaurant, but shortly afterwards other start to arrive. There was only one friendly waitress, who, despite the growing crowd, was able to get back to us about more coffee and to check on us”
“Sam was a great server this evening- friendly and efficient. Food and cocktails were great!”
“We ❤️ coming to eat our the favorite Tuesday Special Chicken a la Mar our favorite Server is Nana we specifically ask for him every time he always in a Good Vibe!!!”
“Everything was amazing! Maybe the best pasta in town. Highly recommend it”
“amazing meal and staff. first time tonight but won’t be the last”
“Perfectly and freshly prepared menu items that just called on Spain! Absolutely delicious, charming surroundings and immaculate service. Luke and Megan made La Bodega totally memorable with their charm and polite kindness⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Great food, better staff, good prices and AWESOME food!! Drinks are really unique too!!”
“I got the pepper wings, suya beef meal and the okro seafood soup. I've never tried any of that before so it was an interesting experience. The wings were really good. Not super spicy, but they did have a little kick. The suya beef was also good . It came with Jollof and plantains. I also enjoyed that, but it was a little too spicy for me. Still really good though. Lastly, I had the okro soup with fufu. The soup was good, I was just really unfamiliar with how to it. It’s very viscous and kind of gooey. It had fish, a crab claw and shrimp. The fish had a lot of bones in it so be careful when eating that. And you also have to break apart the crab claw by hand. The soup is very time-consuming to eat so I probably won’t get it again. Still delicious, but it was just not my cup of tea. The woman who served me was extremely nice and welcoming. The couch I sat on was very comfortable and the music was so good! The vibes are a 10. I'd definer go back again, but in the future, I’d probably ask any of the dishes can be made slightly milder.
Parking: There's a small parking lot in the back. Very limited spaces”
“Love coming here. I have a wine membership but never remember to pick up. Love being able to get a group of friends together for dinner. All it costs us is the tip for the “free” bottles we drink!!”
“The wings were yummy. Tried the Birria Ramen and honestly... it was just ok.
I wouldn't recommend it.
The hibiscus cocktail was tasty and the added floral garnish was a plus. Customer service was friendly and personable.”
“We've been there three other times. We have had great experiences every time. The wait staff is very professional and attentive. The food is very good. This last time it was for our 44th anniversary. We have only ONE complaint: We miss the piano.”
“My daughter vegan and myself non vegan enjoyed this restaurant equally. Amazing food and service. I can’t wait to return 💞”
“Amazing food, awesome staff. What a fantastic experience!! Highly recommend ❤️”
“Had never been here before but had always wanted to try it. It did not disappoint. The salad was very tasty and the cannelloni was amazing. Service was top notch and atmosphere was cozy and refined.”
“I asked for my meat to be lean and it can't back with a high level of fat and when I mentioned it to the waiter, his response was “would you like a refill on your soda”. No apology or any way to fix it but instead, let me there to pick all of the fat off”
“I've been in KC for 26 years, and this is hands down the best. The meats, the sides, ALL amazing. The sausage is off the hook too. Get there early because they sell out daily.”
“Dined at Blue Sushi for happy hour. Great selection of food and cocktails included in happy hour and food was excellent, but I must say the cocktails were disappointing. We ordered 3 of the spicy margaritas and when they were delivered to the table, the glasses were literally just over half-full...with lots of ice! At my request, the waiter returned them to fill up a bit more and they were returned about 80% full. For $10 each, I would expect more!”
“This time I had chicken masala. I get it with mild spice. It was so good. Daughter had squash masala. Also mild & tasty. Highly recommend. Service was excellent. I enjoy the complementary sweet Chai tea as well. Sorry no photo. I dug in before I remembered to take one. I have no regrets.😎”
“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.”
“Fantastoc bartendrvlafy with short dark hair- I wish I knew her name/ very efficient and helpful, loved everything. I ordered steak frites/ the meat was surprisingly soft and the salad was just right- hard to achieve, fries were burnt. It took one hour for the food to arrive, the steak was literally cold. Despite all the wrongs: I loved the place and the vibe. We will be back, hopefully with better food service”
“Anthony was nice, explained and demonstrated how to throw the Axe and where my step should be after watching me throw the first one. Also, a great price.”
“Cheval Bar in Kansas City is a must-visit spot for anyone looking to enjoy exceptional cocktails in a uniquely charming atmosphere. Katie, the talented mixologist, crafts the most delicious and delightful drinks. Her skinny margaritas and French 75s are the best I've ever had—perfectly balanced and full of flavor.
The atmosphere at Cheval is quirky and entertaining, making every visit a new adventure. The décor is eclectic and full of personality, adding to the overall experience.
One of the standout features is the bathroom, which is a destination in itself. With its stunning chandelier, it's a surprisingly elegant touch that perfectly complements the bar’s distinctive vibe.
Whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or just looking for a fun place to unwind, Cheval Bar is sure to impress. The combination of expertly crafted drinks and a captivating atmosphere makes it a standout.”
“Great atmosphere. Beef Tartar was wonderful. Excellent selection of wines. 100% will impress a girl. Go forth men. Show them a good night.”
“The best birthday dinner experience I've had! They made I feel so special. I'll be a forever patron. ❤️”
“Stopped into this gem for some after dinner drinks. First time here and I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and service. The fresh bread was absolutely fantastic and the cocktails were top notch. Will definitely be back to try some dinner options!”
“What a unique and delightful experience! Love the first floor cheese shop and cafe, and had been once for rooftop cocktails, but dinner was so lovely. We had maybe the best tour of a menu by a server that I've ever had - and loved hearing a blend of foodie fun, history, and community impact/why the choices were made. It was delicious, the environment is immaculate, and I can't wait to go back!”
“Wow some of the best seafood I have had in my life! Service was outstanding. The folks her are very nice and accommodating. The seasoning is amazing on all the dishes. We will be back! Highly recommend!”
“Great sports bar with lots of screens and lots of game options like cornhole, bowling, darts, foosball and beer pong. Had a cool evening there. I can't rate the food, I only had a few beers there. Some of the service staff obviously didn't feel like it, but they still got beer :-)”
“FABULOUS ALL THE TIME. Food drinks people are ALL AMAZING. If you know you KNOW if you don’t know you just have to EXPERIENCE IT YOURSELF.”
“The food was good, but a bit too salty. Our server was outstanding.
Parking: There were parking spots, but it took a little looking to find one.”
“I went to Swifts this past Sunday , May 25 around 3 in the afternoon... I met with one of my dear friends and when I tell you, the atmosphere, the cocktails, the food and the service from Ms. Gina was all EXCEPTIONAL!!! Richard and Sheila Swift (The Owners ) were so nice and approachable, I will definetly be going back...very soon!!!”
“In August 2021, Hamburger Mary's Kansas City reported that the establishment would require proof of COVID-19 vaccination. I assumed the requirement had been lifted; however, I wanted to be sure I was prepared (I am vaccinated; my friend is not). Not to mention, I work in an academic/healthcare setting where masks & vaccination status are a daily consideration, so it's something still on my mind. Therefore, I sent Hamburger Mary's a very quick question via Facebook. Attached is a photo of the response I received. My question was in no way impolite, so I'm not sure why the business felt the need to say anything other than no. I'm not easily offended, but I also don't appreciate being spoken to in such a snarky manner for what I considered a perfectly reasonable & respectful question. I was really looking forward to visiting (and donating to a worthy cause!), but I have decided to celebrate my birthday elsewhere.”
“We just had dinner here and the food was amazing. And the owner and staff were above and beyond. Highly recommend.”
“Mark Robinson and his team are conclusive and their ability to direct you into which area you can develop is key. They have a keen intuition for where the market is headed and when to makes profits. they are worth listening to. Try the consultation! And never go low in your portfolio even when the Market is in dip or pump.”
“Delicious food. Great drink. Great service! Definitely coming back!”
“Took my mom for a little snack. She had the CosNO which she loved. We shared the lamb meatballs, Burrata and the Greek salad. A REAL Greek salad. The chefs at Enzo know what they are doing. 10/10 for us!”
“The service was outstanding! The food was not only delicious but plated beautifully. The attention to details and levels of flavor were impressive!!!”
“Excellent atmosphere out on the patio on a beautiful October day. Service and food were outstanding!!”
“Almost forgot how wonderful this place is.
They no longer have the pulled mozza cart but they make up for it with a lot of Burrata on the menu which is always a winner.
I started with the espressotinni which was a mix between an espresso martini and a carajillo, as they mixed espresso with vodka, orange liqueur, coffee liqueur and their house made amaro. Fantastic!
The focaccia with the basil butter was amazing. We followed that with the panzanella salad which was to die for and so refreshing and well balanced with the pickled beans.
The radiatore (pictured) was so yummy with the corn chowder and we finished with the braised pork shoulder with polenta which was perfect. I had the Sangiovese which paired well with the last 2 dishes.
Park in the parking garage past the hotel in the right. You pay $15, but it was worth it not trying to find a spot on the street.”
“The sushi rolls are too notch and the crab Rangoon and edamame apps are tasty! Great service and atmosphere! Dulce’ is a great and attentive server!!”
“Everyone at this establishment is amazing and so incredibly helpful.”
“Grace Jeffries was amazing and very fun! Thank you Grace! Digging the mullet! 😜”

“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!”
“Awesome staff, phenomenal brews (especially if you like NE IPAs), creative cocktails, and delicious food. All within a fun and upbeat, yet classy atmosphere.”
“Great burgers and steak. The Spanish nachos and cheddar bread pudding were also hits. Good cocktails and beer list. Very reasonable price points”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this establishment. While there was a slight issue with my husband's steak, which was initially prepared well-done instead of the requested medium, the staff was very attentive. The chef promptly prepared another steak for my husband, and they were very apologetic about the mistake. Additionally, they kindly offered us a complimentary dessert. Overall, we were quite satisfied with the experience, understanding that it was a busy Saturday evening, and we did not make a major issue of it.”
“Excellent food and service … the only downside is how cold the air conditioning is which makes the food go very cold very quickly !!”
“Great Happy Hour. Food was amazing. The meatballs were some of the best. Can't go wrong with truffle fries. We also had the sausage pizza and the pear bruschetta. Both very good as well. The manager was very welcoming and Dominic at the bar did a great job. It was our first visit, and will not be our last. Great Job everyone!”
“This restaurant has now become one of our favorite Italian restaurants! We celebrated my husband birthday there and had an absolutely wonderful night, from the food, to the atmosphere, to the service! Our server Sam made our evening! He was attentive and enjoyable! We can’t wait to go back! Try it you won’t be disappointed!!”
“Using opentable.com was so convenient. My friend and I were running late. Changing the reservation was so easy and quick. We were celebrating a special occasion. They reserved the best table for us, even though our delays. KC Chophouse is a beautiful restaurant. Every bite was delicious. Service was outstanding. Price is as expected for a gourmet restaurant.”

“We had Back Porch BBQ catered for our wedding through Enchanted Acres in Harrisonville, MO and we couldn’t say enough how good the food was. All the sides were amazing and the meat was super tender and delicious. I was so glad that we were able to enjoy such a good meal at our wedding! The owner was also super responsive to any emails and questions I sent him. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Burgers are good, onion rings were excellent. Last time we went, they were out of onion rings. This time, we called before we went and was told they had onion rings. Twenty minutes later as we were placing our order, we were told they just ran out of onion rings. We left. How do you run out of onion rings? It’s really simple. If you consistently run out, order more. We will not be going back.”
“The food was amazing! We got the meat platter and several different kinds of empanadas and it was ALL delicious! Our waitress was great and even recommended deserts to take home! The deserts were on display and I probably would haven taken one of each but we filled up on our dinner! The atmosphere was fun and we will definitely be going back!!”
“Senorita Margarita is a hidden gem that brings together fantastic Mexican small bites, amazing cocktails, and exceptional service, all in a cool tiki-themed setting. The cocktails are top-notch, offering a delightful twist on classics and new creations that are perfectly balanced. The ambiance is vibrant and fun, making you feel like you're on a tropical getaway. Our server, Cheyenne, made the experience even better with her warm and attentive service. She was knowledgeable about the menu and her recommendations were spot-on. The small bites are fresh and flavorful, from the tasty tacos to the delicious guacamole. Senorita Margarita is a must-visit for anyone looking for great drinks, bites, and a unique vibe. Don't miss it!”
“Usually don't eat barbeque anywhere but our special Bodacious Barbecue at home in Texas. But my group picked this place and I can usually find something I like on the menu wherever we go. Our server was super friendly and gave us lots of info on the menu items. The food came out really quick and was delicious. We had the nachos and cannot decide my favorite part - the tender meat, homemade chips or sauce that was to die for! Definitely going to be early for our flight the next time we are in KC!!”

“Interesting concept. I really enjoyed the smaller portions per plate so we could try various rolls. Seeing them scroll along made it interesting. Service was friendly. I expected it to be a little more “fancy” inside but I was glad it wasn’t. Laid back environment. Only negative was the lack of alcohol options. A couple beer choices and 1 wine shot (not a glass of wine). Fun place for a date or outing.”
“The Town Topic Hamburgers early morning 5am crowd is truly one of the last great American dining experiences. The three egg cheese omelet with shatteringly crispy perfectly cooked hash browns was a transcendent experience, and I wasn’t even hungover. The atmosphere and professional staff lend further into the experience as one that is both memorable and delicious all around.”
“Came back a second time! Absolutely loved my experience at Bristols in Creve Coeur! The atmosphere is inviting and perfect for any occasion. A huge shoutout to Brad, who truly made our visit memorable. His attentive service, friendly demeanor, and expert bartending skills impressed us all. The cocktails he crafted were not only beautifully presented but also delicious. Brad's knowledge of the menu and personalized recommendations elevated our evening. I can't wait to return and well-deservedly give him and the entire team a five-star rating for an outstanding dining experience! Awesome local restaurant, great atmosphere and service. Upscale all around. Rebecca was a nice attentive waitress. Great seafood.”
“Absolutely Amazing! This is the best bbq I have ever had from a restaurant hands down. I got the brisket sandwich with a side of beans and I can not wait to try everything else on the menu. Even the pickles are Amazing. You have to try this place for yourself. You won't regret it.”
“We arrived at LC’s at 820 pm while traveling through on 435 and these portions are huge I had the burnt end beef tips huge portion! My husband had the beef bbq sandwich again huge double decker sandwich. Our daughter had the turkey bbq sandwich. We also had fries coleslaw and fried mushrooms. Needless to say we had a second meal in leftovers. Very friendly staff even while they were busy remained positive and engaged with the customers. First time Kansas City BBQ we are happy we ended up at LC’s!”
“🚨GUACAMOLE CHANGE! We’ve been coming to Ponaks for 30 years. The guacamole has aways been one of our favorites. Today we ordered it and immediately noticed something was different. We asked the server and he confirmed that they have changed their recipe, and it’s for the worst. They’ve added “filler” by putting pico and other ingredients into it. It’s not even close to what it was. I hope they don’t start changing their food and Margaritas!!! There is a reason people keep coming back year after year! Please dont mess with perfection Ponaks!”

“Two Birds One Stone is a gem on Kansas City’s riverfront! My partner and I had an absolute blast at this lively beer garden, conveniently located right next to our hotel and offering stunning views of the Missouri River. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, blending sports bar charm with a modern, open vibe—perfect for kicking back with friends or soaking in the scenery.
Our servers, Spencer and Abbi, were fantastic! They were friendly, attentive, and quick with recommendations, making our experience even better. The beer selection is a highlight, with nearly two dozen local taps featuring brews from favorites like Boulevard and Cinder Block. Every beer we tried was crisp and refreshing, and the Mediterranean-inspired menu paired perfectly with our drinks. The Mezze Platter was a standout—fresh, flavorful, and great for sharing.
Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Two Birds One Stone is a must-visit for great beers, awesome service, and a prime location. We’ll definitely be back!”
“So it is Monday July 14 and we just left Joe’s BBQ and my wife told me that my BBQ is better the Joe’s any-day. Sunday night we went to Q39 and wow what a difference. My wife and I both had the 3 meat and sides of beans,and vegetables. Every single thing we had was great. Chicken(white meat) had good flavor but chicken is chicken. Sausage was full of flavor with the peppers. Ribs were fall off the bone and didn’t need sauce. The pulled pork was really soft and melted in the mouth good. So at this point I have to say if you are in Kansas City for BBQ go to Q39 last because nothing compares the it at least in Kansas City anyway.”
