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!
The food and drinks were amazing as always! That martini has to be the best in KC! Always, always, always get some sort of board with cheese. That. Is. What. They. Are. About! The staff is always so wonderful. They really showed up on our anniversary and made us feel special. We will be back again and again, whether it's to grab a treat in the cafe, a drink on the rooftop, or our next dinner date. It is our favorite spot! 💚🐑
Incredible, delicious and local - just fabulous! We ate dinner here and can’t wait to go back. We sat at the bar, and the experience was wonderful, can’t wait to try the other entrees and drinks!
The atmosphere was relaxed and such a cool vibe - everyone was so friendly!
Beautiful food that is amazingly delicious. Love how fresh the ingredients are.
The pate was nothing out of the ordinary and very small portion. Cheese croquettes were tasty. The lamb and the juice that beds it with chickpeas and asparagus was insipid, salt would have been nice. Wine was waaaaay over priced. Bottom line: cool ambiance, but won’t be back.
Fabulous all around. The food and wine were expertly prepared and perfectly matched. Staff is professional, knowledgeable and welcoming. Ambiance is inviting and comfortable. This is a must dining experience.
This is one of the best resturants I have been to in Kansas City. Great food, the cheese was really fresh and delicious, good drinks, yummy desert. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. My only regret is that I didn’t pick up some cheese to take home. Good reason to return soon!
Came here for lunch with a couple friends. Food was good, service was amazing.
Atmosphere is warm and welcoming with knowledgeable team who were able to give insight into the farm operations. Our family was able to chat and hear each other at brunch. Will go back for a fresh board. We had so much fun trying all the different samplings on our board. It was interesting to get a rundown from our host who called told us about the different cheese and she was spot on in all of her descriptions.
This place has a fun upscale vibe! No stone was untouched with the decor and industrial look. It was a little pricey but we felt the food was worth the cost and also due to the location in downtown KC. A perfect place for date night, a small family or work gathering or a great place to meet your friends to enjoy a night out with a few drinks, laughing and chatter. The atmophere is simple and quiet enough to hear others talk and visit nicely. We enjoyed the charcuterie board and had an afagotta for dessert. When sitting at the tables you can see the cheese room where all the cheese rests and ages. Very unique place! We enjoyed our time here and will return next time we come to KC.

Great place for an anniversary brunch. Food was delicious and the server was willing to discuss the menu before ordering.
A sanctuary of charm, flavor, and soul.
From the moment you step inside Green Dirt on Oak, something shifts — like the world slows down just enough for you to breathe. The ambiance wraps around you like a soft linen blanket: earthy tones, curated textures, natural light, and an unspoken invitation to simply be.
But what truly elevates the experience is the people — and Kendell, in particular, is nothing short of magic. Warm, intuitive, and effortlessly attentive, Kendell makes you feel less like a customer and more like a longtime friend returning home. In a world of rushed service and robotic interactions, that kind of presence is rare and deeply felt.
Whether you’re sipping something slow, catching up with someone you love, or just soaking in the vibes solo — this place restores something in you. It’s not just a café. It’s a feeling.
Come for the ambiance, stay for the energy, return for Kendell.
Green Dirt on Oak is the kind of spot that becomes part of your story.
What a vibe. The food, staff, ambiance… anything less than a 5 star review is from a Karen 😆
Everything was delicious and the service was great
Outstanding wine & cocktails. Food is amazing. Some dishes are centered around lamb / sheep products fyi. Plenty of healthy vegan / vegetarian options too. Calm vibe ambiance. Good place to talk. Not loud at all inside.
