My boyfriend and I have ate here several times and it’s our favorite restaurant in Kansas City! The service and food has been remarkable every time! The dish we get every single visit is the Duck Agnolotti.

We had a large group and they accomodated us at the last minute. We had some of their signature dishes served family style and all were great!

My waiter was great. I went to eat alone and was feeling self-conscious about that in this type of establishment. My waiter was so nice though and he had a casual conversation with me and it made me feel like I had a friend to dine with. The food was fabulous. I loved especially the asparagus salad and the Agnolotti.

We went here last night to celebrate my birthday and it was the perfect choice. Everything we had was amazing! Diver scallops and blue crab tortellini were out of this world. Don’t miss the pistachio cream pie! They also gave me a signed birthday card, an incredibly personal touch which I really appreciated.

This was a brilliant experience, and the highlight of our foodie year to-date. Beautiful, quirky decor with a truly 'novel' dinner and cocktail menu served with passion and knowledge. Flavors, textures and temperatures were all on-point. Could easily compete with any Michelin starred place and was easily in the top ten meals we've ever had. We loved the entire meal and will certainly return. Don't skip this one!

This is an amazing place. Food, service, ambience are all excellent but what made the experience even better was the creative and daring expression of the food. The flavors, presentation and textures were absolutely delicious. In the last year we've been to a 3-star and a few 1-star Michelin restaurants on both coasts and I would say that this restaurant should at least be getting a 1-Michelin. Cocktails were also creative -- really enjoyed the few that had savory hints to them. Relaxed, warm, inventive and surprising - all in all a great experience.
