“Went by Lutfi's for a late lunch today and the service was great. I ordered a 4 piece fish and I had to have some of those shrimp also it was a quick in and out for a late lunch and a delicious meal. I'm glad they opened a Lutfi's up North because I live north and use to have to drive to midtown for Lutfi's delicious fish.“

“This restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere and impeccable service. Thier wine list was curated by the gods. However, while the food was all prepared correctly and they provided everything they said they would, the food lacked personality or anything that make the dishes unique to ocean prime. I had the surf n turf, ahi tuna, oysters, and sea bass, but none of the items stood out even though they were cooked perfectly. While the food was good, I cannot recommend spending this kind of money without receiving a fresh, memorable experience.“

“They have real good fish and other items. larg portions.“

“First timer and my fish (Whiting) was either overcooked and hard or old and hard. I was very disappointed after hungrily picking through my fish to find all of them were hard and uneatable.“

“Fresh sushi in the Midwest?! Yes! The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was some of the best I’ve had. Favorites were the spicy tuna roll and the blue crab roll. Also - the right hand side of the menu was tasty. We literally tried almost everything on that side and each bite was delicious.“

“The Atmosphere, the waiter's & their generously . BUT, IT GOES BEYOND THAT, IT'S THE FOOD, OF COURSE 🦞🐟🐌🦪🥑🍤🎣🐠“

“Fire with great customer service“

“Amazing bagels obviously but don’t bother putting in an order online. Submitted a pick up order at 945 on a Sunday with 10:05 promised pick up time. Waited in line for 15 minutes.. and by the time I reached the counter they hadn’t even started on the order. Why don’t they have a designated pick up spot?“

“Kiara provided excellent service as I met a friend for lunch. The cosmos were fruity and refreshing, the flat bread was flavorful and tasty, the soup was creamy and chock ful of artichokes and chicken, the salmon and crab cake hit the spot and we wrapped it up with a delicous raspberry cannoli dessert cup. Seasons 52 always delivers a memorable experience, Kiara was exceptional!“

“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.“

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!!“

“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.“

“First time eating there today me and the kiddos and yessssssssssss Food was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥#fire“

“Sorry to see you close. very fine Resturant and family. Rod Brock“

“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.

“I Came there when I saw the Owner on TV, I have been bringing My Clients there for Years when it First Opens 😁 The 20 DIFFERENT DAIQUIRI ARE THE B-O-M-B 🍻 🍹“

“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!“

“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.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Our experience going to Providence for the first time was fantastic. Victoria was our server and she was superb. Very friendly, offered wonderful suggestions of food and drink. Service was fast and food was delicious. The fried Brussel sprout leaves was great and the brick chicken dish was fantastic, easily a dish I want to go back and eat again. The old fashions from Drum Room next door was the best old fashions we have ever had and the brown butter cake dessert did not disappoint. A place I would definitely go back to.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is no wheelchair access“

“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!❤️“

“First timer and my fish (Whiting) was either overcooked and hard or old and hard. I was very disappointed after hungrily picking through my fish to find all of them were hard and uneatable.“

“I celebrated my Birthday here, which has been a family favorite for years, with my daughter. The food was absolutely delicious. They have a bar called "The Ox" which has parts of the original carpet and its scenic paintings. Great service! Best Birthday Ever!“

“I love Charlie D’s Seafood & Chicken East. We loved the Soulfood Sunday Brunch Buffet, the food was fresh and hot. And the server brought you out fresh hot fish. Everything was good and the service was excellent. I give it 5 stars and we will be back. I told other family members and friends about it.“
