“Came here as part of a conference. Tried the everything bagel and the cinnamon raisin bagel, both toasted with cream cheese. 10/10 amazing. So much cream cheese we had to wipe some off lol. It was nice to not have to chew for half an hour, like I did at another place.“

“Had a great experience at Jarocho South. The food was excellent. Every seafood dish we tried was flavorful and well-prepared. I really enjoyed the fried fish, which was crispy and seasoned just right. The ceviche was bright and delicious. The service was also top notch. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. I would definitely come back for more great seafood and a great dining experience.“

“This has been one of our favorite restaurants for years and the experience was no different this time. The service and food was spot on. Did not realize it was the last day of magical dining and the place was packed on a Tuesday evening. That did not change the great service or food. This is one of the most consistent restaurants around.“

“I’ve been to this restaurant twice prior to boarding my flight back home and I can say the food and customer service were great. I’m not really big on seafood but they do have the hot fried chicken sandwich and it’s so damn good. This will be my go to spot at the airport.“

“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.“

“Our filets were delicious from the first bite, but after that my "medium well" turned into medium rare. Wonderful sides (the pear walnut salad was wonderful!) made me wonder if perhaps the waiter just misunderstood the order. The wines, the desserts... everything impressed, and all in a beautiful, comforting setting. I may have to go back for that filet again.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Food was super fresh and delicious. We are on our way back again today. If they had coke products instead of Pepsi I'd be there more lol“

“Crazy good food at the Crazy Crab! Easy to get to mid town location with plenty of parking. We went for a late lunch so no wait- and ordered the Seafood Combo #1- 1/2 Snow Crab, 1/2 shrimp - Cajun medium and garlic butter. It’s all steamed in a huge bag and comes with tender potatoes, juicy corn and a boiled egg- price point was good for the amount of food you get. I had to take some home.“

“Today was my husband's 75th birthday. He chose to have his celebration meal at Season's 52 and we were pleased as usual with the service (thanks to Michael) and the delicious food in true Season's 52 beautiful ambiance! It was truly memorable experience.“

“We go to Capital Grille at the Plaza 3-4 times a year, and this was the best visit all around I can remember. The last visit was not good, but this made up for it and then some. Our server was amazing (the best we ever had at any Capital Grille) and the food was perfect.“

“I have enjoyed Tiki Taco since they opened, but wanted to edit my review to say...their catering and food truck is amazing! We have used both for recent graduation parties and the service from planning to wrap up was excellent. The food truck was so fun, the staff was friendly and fantastic, and of course the food was great and everyone loved it. Can't recommend Tiki Taco enough for parties or events!!“

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

“Excellent food and service … the only downside is how cold the air conditioning is which makes the food go very cold very quickly !!“

“The wild Boar and limoncello cake were amazing!“

“SMAXX is the place to be! Especially on Wednesday’s for $1 whole wings. My husband has tried many other food items and likes it! 🔥phillies and burgers too! I don’t go at night so I can’t speak to that, but during the day, the music is always jammin’ with R&B hits. If you haven’t tried it, you should.“

“The food was delicious, but I really wanted to make a point to leave a review about our server. From the very beginning, Tayla was attentive and kind. She made sure to give great descriptions of the food, but the real icing on the cake was how much she went above and beyond. We brought in a cake from the bakery, and the host offered to keep it in the fridge for us. Tayla brought out the cake for us to take pictures and sing happy birthday, and then took it to the back to cut it. The cake was butterfly themed, and she cut out my mom's piece to look like a butterfly. We cannot recommend this restaurant enough, but highly recommend asking for Tayla.“

“We had our wedding and celebration at The Summit Grill in Lee’s Summit last night. WOW!!! I cannot give this place and their employees enough kudos. Shana, the event coordinator was exceptional and very responsive. The food was so good….everyone raved about how much they loved it. We did an appetizer buffet and chose a veggie tray, spin dip, chicken wings, chicken sliders, cheeseburger sliders and steak street tacos. The two dedicated bartenders we had were the very best! We had the back bar and outdoor area with a fire pit. It was above and beyond what we expected. I give this place the highest recommendation for any event. Also, their happy hour can’t be beat! Thank you Summit Grill for making our wedding celebration phenomenal!“

“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“

“They came to my job today and I Had the chicken poboy and lemon pepper wings and fries. 10/10 best food truck I’ve eaten at in the Kansas City area so far i definitely recommend them and I can’t wait for them to come back!“

“My car always leaves this place looking spot less. They have a nice brush I use on my car. The soap in it smells amazing almost like jolly ranchers. My car shines up real nice when I use it. Thank you to the owner for using good quality products and keeping the place clean. My favorite place to wash my car.“

“We've been to this restaurant a few times now, and I've gotta say, it's amazing! The food is so delicious!! The service is quick and efficient, and our server today was very pleasant. We just love it! Our new favorite place!❤️“

“We stopped by here before seeing a show at The Music Hall. It was great because it was within walking distance and we could make a reservation. I have been to the Drum Room countless times and had no idea about the restaurant in the hotel! We decided to split the grilled peach salad, the fried goat cheese salad and a side of fries. These salads were so good! I feel like you don't often hear people rave about salads after visiting a restaurant but these were both great. I would totally order them again. Our waitress was super nice and even let us know right when we sat down that they were short staffed and that she was also helping with room service. I always appreciate when staff is up front about situations like that because it helps customers understand and manage expectations. Our drinks were rather strong and we both had a hard time finishing them, but overall we had a good experience!“

“Walked in to grab a take-out order for lunch. Had a good experience. I ordered fried shrimp, spring rolls, and crab rangoon. It took 10 minutes, very quick service, which was perfect because I had to get back to work. The spring rolls came with 4, 6 crab rangoon, and 8 pieces of fried shrimp, which by the way, happens to be awesome with sweet and sour sauce!

Everything was fresh, nicely packaged, and the young lady gave me 6 fortune cookies……I didn’t have to ask more; that was dope, I almost always want more than one.

Overall experience 5 stars, whenever I’m in the mood for Chinese cuisine and I’m in the area, I will definitely visit here.“

“Indian restaurant. Fresh food in the morning and afternoon. Leftover in the evening and night time. They can do better. Chai tea is one of the best tea I had here. Kitchen service is little slow and the guys taking order at the kitchen counter need to pay more attention to what Customers wants. Language and accent problem due to Asian restaurants culture. But the food is not bad. Place is good to visit and spend time during morning and afternoon. Evening and night time little sketchy due to homeless guys hanging around the parking area in the dark. Little scary but not so dangerous. I like to visit their place every time I get a chance. From food to liquor or grocery, they had almost everything.
