“Went to Barbacoa, 5500 Troost, for brunch Sunday morning, what a delightful experience. I ordered Monie’s plate. It was mouthwatering. The serving was so generous, that I took half of it home. The corn tortillas were soft and warm enough to make a taco, the beans were flavorful and not spicy, the carnitas were fall apart tender and very tasty, perfectly fried potatoes, and fluffy scrambled eggs. The salsa was very tasty and not overly spicy. The coffee was even tasty (Costco Kirkland medium roast). Unlike some breakfast restaurants, the background music was so low and mellow (helps with digestion), I could hear my friends talk. We have to go back during the week for dinner. UPDATE - I forgot one very important thing, the service was excellent. Our group was one of two in the restaurant, but shortly afterwards other start to arrive. There was only one friendly waitress, who, despite the growing crowd, was able to get back to us about more coffee and to check on us“

“Best trivia night ever! Go on Wednesdays“

“This is the coolest place in Kansas City! I was blown away by this gem. It is by far the coziest warehouse space I have ever been in. There are several conversation areas set up and so much soft seating to choose from. There is a small but excellent board game collection which was a great surprise. The book selection is so well curated! I had a delightful time hanging here for a drink and a browse. I will absolutely be back next time I come thru town. I loved this place so much!!!“

“Was really good! Some of the best cocktails I've ever had. Came in during Sunday happy hour after 4 and was told all cocktails are $2 off, however got charged full price for one of hours. Bartender was too busy to ask about it after we got the itemized receipt. Overall, delicious. Just wish we would have gotten the full special.“

“we had Reservations, the table was running a little late. The manager was extremely accommodating. He insisted to compensate us in someway for the delay we said no, but he was persistent and offered us a free appetizer. That’s great service and will always be a loyal customer.“

“Staff, dinner, wine, and ambiance were all amazing. Great NYE dinner! The scallops were cooked perfectly! Highly recommend to all!“

“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!“

“Ragazza is my favorite restaurant. We’ve been several times. Tonight we had Liz as a server and Channing helped out as well. Both of them were awesome. The food.. as always was awesome. Drinks superb. If you haven’t tried Ragazza you should. The Eggplant parm is my favorite but everything is honestly delicious.“

“The best birthday dinner experience I've had! They made I feel so special. I'll be a forever patron. ❤️“

“Phenomenal sandwich! The 816 was glorious! The bread alone is worth the price of admission. I tried to save half for lunch but failed miserably. Guess I'll have to go back tomorrow... Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“I worked here. The owner moved me to a new apartment and gave me 100 dollars just because. I still wear my PPT shirt around town and have some pressed pennies. Great food. Great family owners. The most cozy hidden gem in Kansas City!“

“Great atmosphere. Beef Tartar was wonderful. Excellent selection of wines. 100% will impress a girl. Go forth men. Show them a good night.“

“it's a perfect place to eat not because the food is better, but know how to entertain a 3 course meal over 2 1/2 hours. the contemporary series is a wonderful way to learn how to cook, ask questions and feel delighted in the best restaurant in the Greater Kansas City region! BAM! eat here at least once in your lifetime =)“

“unbelievably just out of this world“

“Always have a good time , and the salted bun. Must get“

“Great food & great atmosphere! Definitely will be going back!“

“Absolutely great lunch today at The Capital Grille. The bread service is delicious, and the crab cakes and fried calamari (A++) were outstanding. I had the steak sandwich. This was not a typical sliced steak sandwich, there was literally a perfectly cut and cooked steak in the center. Amazing.“

“Had an amazing experience here after dinner for a late night drink! We really enjoyed the service and the calm atmosphere - not to mention the amazing view. Overall it was cozy, but also big enough so not noisy at all, good vibes music playing and also very family friendly. There’s a space on the side for families to play games.

We ordered two cocktails, one Passion Punch (rum based) and one Black Honey (gin based). Both were really good, and I especially liked the passion punch - it was sweet, smoky, and had a bit of spice.

Our server was also very nice, he shared amusing stories of his shift during the World Cup events - and was very attentive with his services. I would come back to visit this bar next time I’m in town.“

“Hands down the best Italian restaurant in the city!“
