34 Best American Restaurants in Lees Summit

“Everyone is so friendly and the food comes out super fresh and delicious everytime I am in!“

“If you like Nashville hot chicken or a spicy chicken sandwich from other places you will love this food. If you can't handle a little bit of spice it's probably not for you. This is about as good as you can get with fast food. My only criticism is this location doesn't have a drive through.“

“We had such a great experience at the LS Pegah’s tonight. Our kids were tired from homecoming festivities and whiny, making them harder to maintain. Our waitress and the entire staff were nothing but amazing to us coming over talking to the kids and making sure we had everything we needed. There was a slight mishap with our one of our dishes and our server (Emma I think) felt so bad and went above and beyond to make it right. We will definitely be back- our food was amazing!!“

“All I can say is WOW! My husband & I went here for the first time last Friday and from the moment we stepped it we had the best dining experience we’ve ever had in the Kansas City area. Our server was Kortney and she was nothing short of AMAZING. She was attentive and made sure we were happy with our experience. Our drinks were always refilled at the halfway point, she checked on us at all of the perfect times and it was clear she was on top of it! She was friendly, attentive, & provided some seriously top-notch service. We ordered the crap dip to start and oh my goodness it was so delicious we were tempted to order another or. The dip was overflowing the bowl and everything was so FRESH. My husband ordered the pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon and he said it was literally melting in his mouth. I ordered the roots burger and was impressed that someone could take a cheeseburger & make it THAT GOOD. We will absolutely be back! From the atmosphere to the service to the food - EVERY single aspect exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend this place enough!“

“Thank you for being open on Thanksgiving today...It worked out perfect for our family today of (4) The food was amazing and our sever Ashley was fantastic“

“Walked into Cooper’s Hawk for the first time not really knowing what to expect, and I’m glad I did. I love sweet wines, so finding something that actually matches my taste can be hit or miss, but the Spritzy Sangria Strawberry Rhubarb was incredible. Sweet, refreshing, lightly sparkling, and just easy to enjoy from the first sip.

Big shoutout to Alec B. for being awesome. He took the time to let me do a wine tasting, listened to what I liked, and pointed me toward the perfect bottle. Super cool guy, very knowledgeable, and made the whole experience welcoming and fun instead of overwhelming.

If you’re into sweeter wines and aren’t sure what to try, this is definitely worth checking out. Thanks again, Alec—I found a new favorite! 🍷“

“Always worth the stop. Stop.“

“Great food, price and service! ❤“

“Independent Living - wonderful place to live“

“I ordered decorated cookies for a birthday celebration. The birthday girl loves quilting and flowers. They made half with each. The finished product was beautiful! And they were fresh and very tasty!“

“I genuinely love Culver’s. Everything I try is better than I even expect. Don’t be afraid to get the Atlantic Cod sandwich because it’s sooo good. Also the coke is always crispy and good.

Edit: to add info to another comment about charging $0.20 for removing toppings - that’s a (credit) and if he adds the receipt total, he’ll find it was deducted from the price and not added. Haha.“

“What a perfect Valentine's Day meal❣️ Our waitress was wonderful, the bar made the perfect drinks, and the manager Victoria Karr stopped by our table to check on how we were. There is no other place I'd rather eat, on any day, than at Houlian's, more specifically in Lee's Summit! Thank you for making the perfect night happen.🙂“

“Great food made from scratch.“

“I just had a bowl of their roasted pepper Gouda soup. It was great. This is the second time I’ve had soup there and both were so flavorful and tasty. Restaurant is always clean and everyone is personable. Everything I’ve had has been wonderful.“

“100 percent recommend Wally’s. Peyton usually takes care of us when we sit at the bar. This time we got a table and Cooper took care of us. They are both very personable and provide fantastic service. Thank you both!!“

“We had a reservation but didn't need one. The service was fast, competent and friendly. The food was well prepared and tasty. However, the price point was a bit high even for post-pandemic pocketbooks. While everyone agreed the food was good and we had a good time the cost vs value ratio would likely keep us from going back.“

“Always spot on! Best fresh, crispy hash-browns and country fried steak. Consistent great food and service! Been going for 25+ years. The complimentary cinnamon roll is old school cafeteria style that you can order to go by the dozen. There’s a reason this place remains the staple in downtown LS! Enjoy!“

“I've eaten there repeatedly in the past few months and I've had nothing but excellent service and top notch food. It's one of the best deals in Les Summit“

“My family and I had a wonderful experience here. The food is always hot, fresh, and delicious! Emily did a fantastic job making sure our drinks were always full and attended to all our needs with positive energy. We love spending our mornings here.“

“It’s my granddaughters favorite place. She has to be gluten free and they offer several options. Great service!“

“Excellent pizza. lots of fun flavor combinations.“

“Let me tell you something… this place looks like somebody said, “Don’t throw anything away—let’s decorate with it,” and somehow… it WORKS.

The walls are covered in signatures like a yearbook that never ended, the chandeliers are giving unexpected elegance, and the whole vibe is “we do what we want here.” Confusing at first? Yes. Charming five minutes later? Also yes.

Now the food… because that’s what really matters.

The lemon/blueberry pancake came out like it had something to prove—big, fluffy, and minding everybody’s business. The hashbrowns were crispy enough to make you forget your table manners for a second. And that omelet? Stuffed like it was trying to win a competition nobody else knew about and lying about all the secrets inside.

And let’s not ignore the mug screaming “I like big mugs & I cannot lie”… bold, totally unnecessary, and yet completely accurate.

Service was solid, food came out hot, and portions? Let’s just say it suck with us for a long while. Is it aesthetic? Debatable. Is it a vibe? Absolutely. Would I come back? Yes… because clearly they know what they’re doing back there.“

“This was our first time dining at Konrads. The food was fresh and delicious and the portions were very generous. Our server (Nash) was new at serving and did an amazing job taking care of us! The owner (or manager) thanked us and chatted with us on our way out. It was a great experience. We can’t wait to go back.“

“Bricks is one of the best eating and drinking establishments in downtown Lee’s Summit! The food is high quality, always fresh and they have an amazing infused cocktail menu. No bad days at Bricks!“

“We were seated immediately. Our server, Heather S., was very attentive and kind. Our orders came out in a timely manner. The food was phenomenal! So good we forgot to even take any pictures of it. It was my daughter's graduation and she was very happy with this meal.“

“Great place took our son in for birthday drinks and dinner great server , very friendly guy“

“The serve was great even though they where extremely busy for Christmas morning!!!“

“It's Chili's. Of course it's good! The southwest egg rolls are fantastic, and so is the guacamole. The food is always great and the service is up there with the best of them in the Lee's Summit location. They're always happy (or do a real good job of faking it if they're not) and fast. My drink never goes empty when I'm there“

“Had an amazing experience at Red Lobster tonight. The food came out hot and fresh, the atmosphere was great, and the service was outstanding. Aiden was a great server — super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect the whole time. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend!”“
