Absolutely one of my favorite places in KC. Whether you are hungry and want to eat a meal or drink some coffee YJ's has you covered. Always feel comfortable to stay in for 20 minutes or 2 hours.

I used to eat here weekly, years ago when I worked in the area. The only thing I didn't like back then was the cramped space, but that was enough for me not to visit again for ten years, once I no longer had the excuse of work proximity.

Great 3rd world atmosphere with high ceilings lined with books and mini altars throughout the space.

Food is ok but Mr. David Ford, the owner, does not pay employees so not much point in paying for food here

I was a fan of the old location, and the new one has the same feel in a larger space. Great job!

The food it is just okay. It taste about as good as if an uncle or brother made it, but that seems to be the vibe that he's going for. It's basically a guy who wanted a place where people could socialize, and "feel at home," but also make money from it. Pretty good model.

love is in there food and that's most powerful magic in the world
Best restaurant in Kansas City since 2000. Best KC hamburger was the Wednesday meatloaf sandwich. Fish and banana leaves can't be beat. Best Mediterranian food. Best Mexican plate on Thursdays. Best iced mocha. Introduced me to King Cakes. Friendliest staff.

Unbelievably good. A bit of a seedy atmosphere. They stick to minimum items on the menu and do an excellent job! Great coffee too.

I have loved every visit I've had here. The food is delicious and special. The ambiance brings a smile to the face of anyone who can appreciate the quirkiness and joy that is the random collection of artifacts and tributes to KC Jazz culture and history. I proudly brought my 7-yr old here for dinner. She loved it!

The food is always plentiful and very flavorful. They use a unique mixture of things to create unusual and very tasty dishes. Had the pork fajita today,was fantastic. Imagine all the ingredients tasting so good that you neither need or want to put salsa on it. That's what this was like.
It was so fresh. Prices that won't break you.
