“Great sandwiches! Lots of flavors! Garlic parmesan is perfect and the ranch is awesome“

“We had the wings I’m not sure the level of heat that was ordered but they had some kick it was a dry rub so they were not messy. It’s in a trendy building with other restaurants and a couple of bars. You can order using your phone or a computer so there is no customer interaction.“

“Kansas City is known barbecue however the fried fish game in KC is on point as well. I have had all of them, and this is the best in my opinion. Hot sauce not even needed.“

“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!!!“

“Finally found good Chinese food in the Kansas City area.This is the best kept Chinese food secret in Kansas City. Their food isn't greasy and is deliciously tasty. I always order the vegetarian fried rice or vegetarian lo mein. Their egg fried rice is delicious too.“

“Best burger is Kansas City, try the social burger!“

“The food was great but I wouldn’t come here on an evening of you want good service. My husband and I did a tasting tour near by and wanted something to eat before we headed back to the Air BnB. Immediately you could tell how the experience was going to be when we didn’t order drinks right away and didn’t see our server again for about 15 minutes. She was very obviously more interested in paying more attention to customers that ordered drinks right away. She didn’t give her name otherwise I would I mention here. We only got one water and she didn’t come back to us again. We went to go to the hostess to try to pay our bill, ended up stopping her as she was leaving the bar. I give 2 stars out of 5. That’s only because the food was really good. I don’t think I would come back here. Maybe during the day would be better but I don’t know if I’d come here again anyway.“

“Sauced offers a delightfully unique dining experience! This stationary spot, cute like a food truck and nestled perfectly between buildings, has a charm all its own. Their menu is refreshingly short and simple, which works perfectly to highlight their delicious offerings. While drink options are limited to water and Sprite, it's better than nothing and gets the job done. I highly recommend the Blackened Chicken Sandwich, and 'The Fry'—loaded with pulled pork and BBQ sauce—is an absolute must-try!

A quick note on the practicalities: Parking was quite challenging to find, especially with the ongoing construction out front. Also, due to recent rain, the outdoor seating area was soaked. However, these are clearly not the fault of the restaurant itself and don't detract from the fantastic food and concept.“

“The service is excellent; the beautiful lady at the drive thru window always has a smile...The food is always, hot and fresh cooked; the wings are succulent, many flavors and the tenders and fish are tasty perfection. They are busy but definitely worth the wait ! Best wings in Kansas City !!! And don't forget Shelley's Summer Breeze !!“

“This place has been on our list for quite some time to visit, well we finally made it here today. We were the first ones in when they opened the doors at 4pm. Andi was our server, and she was incredible from start to finish. We started with an order of the original wings and ordered a 39th Street pizza. The wings were possibly some of the best I've ever had, the sauce was phenomenal. The pizza was also outstanding (the crust, the sauce and the toppings). We are already looking forward to our next vist and will bring along some friends to join us next time. Everything was OUTSTANDING!!!“

“We had lunch on Wednesday, July 16, 2025 at Lunas, the food was good, our server, Lily, was very helpful, friendly, very personal, made us feel welcome and made sure we had everything we needed. Enjoyed our lunch! Thank you Lilly! Gary and Brenda“

“that seasoning omg is absolutely delicious. I had the fish and spaghetti. the fish omg yes. the spaghetti no.“

“I had breakfast. Very good biscuits and gravy. I also had a Mimosa.“

“Lindsay and her famous pickle shots will keep us coming back every time. Best in Kansas City, if not the whole world.“

“Tasty & delicious! Best chicken karhai I have had at a restaurant in the U.S. It's a bit spicy and so good! I also highly recommend the keema naan with some chutney. My mom doesn't do spicy, so she got the philly chicken roll—which she thoroughly enjoyed. My son gave his monster burger and fries 5 stars.

The seating is covered outdoors with one fan. It works for families but is super casual.

Tip: Call in your order on your way there with a 30-minute lead time. This place gets busy after 8 p.m., so make sure to call in the food order, or you might be waiting a long time.“

“Had the cheese fries and they were awesome! Cheese sauce was flavorful (not the same old cheese sauce that others use). The fries stayed crunchy even with the sauce over them. Also had a bacon/cheeseburger that was very flavorful. And of course the giant hot wings. Their homemade blue cheese dipping sauce was very good, not overpowering. Great service even though it got crowded. I Highly recommend!“

“This is my favorite location to go to out in NKC off of Vivian, due to the customer service, the food is always fresh, and you get through the line quickly! I did the drive thru option, so I’m not sure what the atmosphere was like. Anyway I will be back. Thanks ya’ll!“

“place is always clean...food is always hot“

“We saw on Facebook and really wanted to try. It was worth the drive. Food and customer service were amazing. We would absolutely come back next time we are in the city and would recommend.“

“Today, I searched "restaurants around me" because in office days I don't know the area as well and wanted something outside the normal area. I found RC's, and I'm so glad I did. I made a carryout order online and it was easy. I arrived a few minutes before and they were just coming out and handed it directly to me. I got the one chicken breast lunch with mashed potatoes, gravy and a biscuit. I added a side of their green beans. Tasted like every honestly chicken place I grew up with outside the city. Great breading on the chicken, the meat was moist and cooked well. The potatoes were fresh made and the green beans rocked with little bits of bacon in them. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend.“

“The Gizzards are the best . The place was clean,and everyone was polite.Update 2-22-2025 I'm disappointed the gizzards are not the same🙁 the meat is very different and livers were not prepared correctly I'm very disappointed the place is still clean and the people are still polite but I'm shaking my head right now“
