Lovely spot. Cozy and charming atmosphere, creative, delicious dishes and brilliant cocktail selection. I look forward to coming back on my next adventure to KCMO
Lovely dinner last night. We hadn’t been in in awhile- we will definite correct that. The halibut and scallops were both divine. Awesome atmosphere and service. Thank you.

Westport Cafe is a popular restaurant in Kansas City known for its excellent food, service, and ambiance. The restaurant offers a unique menu with a rotating chef's special, and its menu items such as spaghetti and steak frites are perfectly cooked. The cocktail menu is solid, with options including a strong but tasty "beached tuxedo" and a delicious cocktail served in a frozen glass. The wine selection is great, with generous pours that compliment the food well, and the restaurant even carries a rare European beer like Duvel. The brunch is unbeatable, featuring magic hamburgers and incredible date spot options.
The restaurant has a rustic farm-to-table flare, with a hint of playfulness. The atmosphere and clientele are eclectic, creating an active vibe, and the servers take customers on a journey, explaining the food, wines, chefs, and their culture. The restaurant uses recipes from a grand-mère and wine made with grapes from a grand-père's vineyard. The gentleman who delivered the Hors d'Oeuvres sampler tray took the time to explain each item, enhancing the overall experience.
The menu features a variety of delicious dishes, including scallop and risotto, profiteroles for dessert, and the Gnocchi Chef's Special plate described as small, delicious pillows. The Happy Hour menu is quite robust, with standout appetizers like focaccia with garlic spread and arugula, lamb skewers, and a cheese plate. The main plates that stood out include the Steak Frites, Smashed Burger, and Halibut, with the Steak Frites being especially impressive at just $17 during happy hour.
Overall, Westport Cafe is a classy, eclectic local joint with a chill vibe, serving delicious food and drinks, and providing incredible hospitality.
