This place is a club at nighttime, so the decor is club style. I would not recommend the food at all. Came for brunch and almost everyone's order messed up. Coffee was brought in a regular cup, food was gross. Server was confused, just would not recommend at all.

The DJ needs to know more Latin salsa and maybe merengue since he plays very outdated music

Celebrated my sister’s 40th birthday. She had a really great time. The food, drinks and ambiance was awesome! Working with D’nn to make the reservations. She was easy to work with and we got exactly what we were looking for. Thanks!Parking: Depending on the time of day, you probably have to either ballet or drive around until you find parking. No designated parking
We had a group of 9 come for happy hour. It's wasn't super busy and the service was so slow. Roxanne took 20 minutes to bring a round of drinks. The flatbread made it to the table before she carried our drinks over that had been sitting at the bar for 10 minutes. Then, we were charged auto 20% grat (we always tip 20-25% anyways) and your menu states that you do 18%. Disappointing service and feeling deceived on the gratuity will make us not choose to spend our time and money here again.

Cool bar, needs more open seating. Reserve a table for better service. Gets crowded quick. Cover is ridic.

The food is mid, and they ran out of bottomless mimosas. We didn’t even know they ran out, until we asked; since it’s been 30 min since our last refill. We only had two.The club part is great, but would not recommend brunch.

Walked in around 3pm on 2/17. sat at a table. No waiter in sight. People behind the bar talking to each other and were annoyed when we asked for a menu. Never again to this crap hole! Went down the street and spent $700.

My first time here for the Super Bowl. I thought the crowd was electric and fun, the service is great. The bartender, Max (I'm bad with names) is awesome. He was attentive and has a heavy pour. The food was bomb, but it sucked they didn't announce last call on food and I was hangry. The kitchen closed right at halftime. The gender neutral restrooms was gross to me. There needs to be more attention on the cleanliness there or someone patrolling it. There was urine on the seats and floor. There were no toilet seat covers. I like the privacy of doors but that's it.

A KANSAS CITY MUST TRY EXPERIENCE! 5 STAR!This is a go to date night place for my husband and I. We've brought so many people here and recommend it to any one traveling to KC. Nothing but great service, food and atmosphere every time. It's hard to choose what to order because everything is absolutely delicious. Our favorite dishes are the Ahi Tuna Nachos, Spicy Cajun Chicken Pasta and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. The drinks are one of a kind too. My husband loves the old fashioned whiskeys from the Scarlet Room and I love Palauxma mocktails. The Scarlet Room has a "speak easy" feel, with the dim lighting and deep red velvet seating. The main area is more of an open, fun, high energy "night out on the town feel". Really perfect for any occasion.
We had a reservation for 9 people, so we had to call in to make the reservation- the "owner" said we could early to have a drink at the Scarlet Room prior to dinner @7:30. We get there and Scarlet Room is closed; it opens at 10pm. Service was not great but they may just be short staffed. It took nearly 30mins for our drinks, over an hour to get our food. The food was horrendous. We came here for Restaurant Week and we're excited to try a lot of things. Everything was absolutely horrible. Steaks were thin and overcooked, Mashed potatoes were box mix with raw garlic, lava cakes dinner have ice cream, the "cilantro lime rice" was just white rice with corn & sour cream on top, and drinks were super syrupy. They ran out of other dessert items and no one told us until we hadn't been served for +30 minutes and had to track someone down to see where our desserts were. One person didn't get her entree until others got their dessert. In all we spent THREE HOURS there. Pictured is the espresso martini flight (gross also, they're just black flavored coffee & vodka) and the ribeye dinner.I would never recommend this place for food. The waitress did comp our desserts but we had to pay for all of the other inedible food.

Visited during Restaurant Week (RE) on a Saturday night. We were seated around 7pm. Atmosphere was nice, not super busy which surprised us during RE. We finished dinner and drinks around 10pm. The atmosphere began shifting from restaurant to a night club around 930pm. Looked like things were getting ready to be electric!On to the food and service. First off, the server was great, even though overwhelmed. Seemed to be the only one running around.Since this was RE we had a choice of four main courses and a couple of us chose to upgrade to the ribeye. Unfortunately the ribeyes that were delivered were about a 1/2" thick. I asked for the cook on mine to be "chef's choice" expecting the chef to cook the way "it should be". I only do this with ribeyes as the chef usually likes to show off and make it perfect. Unfortunately, my 1/2" ribeye came out medium-well. So, you know how that went. I'll take the blame here since maybe this chef prefers ribeyes more cooked through than me. My buddy had a slightly better steak as he ordered his medium-rare. They were so thin though. The ball of mashed potatoes was dry and might have been artificial. The asparagus was good. The other people in our party like their meals, which was shrimp alfredo or something.Pretty cool place with interesting decor! Lots of TV's which was great for watching football!Overall it was a decent experience.

I went there last week for KC Restaurant week. Never been. The place is gorgeous and a very dope atmosphere. Our server Raven was good. I just wish they had more servers that night, because she had too many tables for 1 person. On to my meal. I ordered off the Restaurant week menu. I had the ribeye steak. I ordered it well. It came out dry and tough. And I did not eat it. The manager would not take it off my bill because he said couldn't discount just the steak from the restaurant week price. He also said that ordering it well, it will always come iut like that. I went to 2 other restaurants during restaurant week the previous weekend and both places i ordered a steak, well done, and they came out juicy and tender. So basically paid for a steak I didn't eat at Society. In my opinion, he could have taken off the whole meal and just charged me separately for the items I DID eat. ( salad, Brussels sprouts, and mashed potatoes. ) I was very disappointed in the way it was handled. I'll probably be back, but probably just for drinks. They also got another order at my table wrong. But overall, it's a nice happy hour or summer spot to go to!Parking: It was difficult finding a parking spot. I ended up parking around the corner in a garage. Probably won't go back until it's warm.

My husband and I and three friends went to Society for dinner last night. It's Restaurant Week, so we thought we'd try somewhere new. Unfortunately, this was a really bad experience. For the most part, service was extremely slow - except when it was too fast! Our server had us order cocktails and dinner at the same time, due to some sort of earlier backup. Instead of a before dinner drink, the cocktail came at about the same time as the salad (which took a while!). But then when we weren't even halfway through our salads, the entrees arrived. And even though they came too quickly, some of them were downright cold. Meanwhile, a friend and I ordered a glass of wine to theoretically have WITH our dinner. At least 30 minutes later, our server told us that they were out of Malbec, which is what my friend had ordered, so she changed her order. Another 15 minutes passed - we were done with dinner - when they finally brought the wine. Except I only got half of a glass, because that was the end of the pinot grigio! I could go on and on, but in a nutshell, timing and service were abysmal, and food was just so so (especially the "chocolate mousse" that was actually some sort of white glop with a couple of strawberries and strawberry sauce). Another group near us left after their drinks, tired of waiting, and we saw someone else go up to the bar to get their drinks because service was so slow. The ambiance is kind of cool (although still decorated for Christmas), and maybe it's a fun bar, but they might need to give up on trying to be a restaurant, too.
This place is a club at nighttime, so the decor is club style. I would not recommend the food at all. Came for brunch and almost everyone's order messed up. Coffee was brought in a regular cup, food was gross. Server was confused, just would not recommend at all.
