A real treat for the taste buds. We went on a Tuesday night which was Taco Tuesday. They had $3 tacos (you can pick from four options) and discounts in drinks. I tried the Al Pastor, Cheeseburger Taco, Buffalo Cauliflower, and Chicken Tinga. All four were very good.“

The waffle fries and fried pickles were fresh and crisp. I had a great time driving around and seeing the lake. Stopping to eat and watching the geese. Maybe not everyone needs to know about this place, because the charm might be ruined.“

We were impressed! All 14 orders were correct, served hot and fresh, and so good!! Great size portions! The service was absolutely great! Refills were quick. The atmosphere is so fun! We all enjoyed our food arriving by train. The kids had a great time. and only 2 little ones had a nugget and few fries left. Everyone devoured their food. It's definitely a must experience! We will definitely be back! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“We said goodbye to Dewy 15-Year-old lab mix. They made him a wonderful Pup Cup. He enjoyed every bite. @Culver's (Kansas City, KS ) Thank you for making his last night special.“

“My wife and I stopped in for the first time in a few years. We were seated after a bit of a wait. It is after all a Friday night in a shopping district. Our server was bright and cheery. She had a warming smile and happy persona. we placed our drink order. Shortly thereafter our food order was taken. I ordered a flat iron steak and a baker. My wife ordered soup and salad. Our dinner was served fairly quickly. Unfortunately my steak was quite a bit overcooked, so I requested one that wasn't over done. When the replacement steak was delivered, it was a bit overdone as well. I was hungry so I kept it. The manager came by to talk to us. I've spent time in a kitchen or two and I understand a dinner rush. The manager stopped at our table and wanted to assure us that this was not acceptable. She made things right, but wasn't needed or expected. I felt bad for our server because she probably feared she wasn't going to get tipped for a fairly big check. She was pretty wrong. I tipped correctly and arguably better than normal. Our return visit ended up being a great experience. We met a couple of wonderful human beings. Had some pretty good food. And, of course, my wife and I got to connect.“

“My grandson loves Culver’s!“

“Great little bar tucked away in Platte Woods. One of the last to allow smoking! The food is amazing, and very large portions. The drinks are great and they have a wide variety to choose from! Open 7 days a week with specials every day! The atmosphere is like a "Cheers" bar, go check them out!“

“Brunch for wife and teen daughter was spot on. Quality of ingredients comes through. For example, breakfast sausage in the breakfast sandwich was light and herby. Wife's French toast was outstanding.

Would recommend and we look forward to returning.“

“SMAXX is the place to be! Especially on Wednesday’s for $1 whole wings. My husband has tried many other food items and likes it! 🔥phillies and burgers too! I don’t go at night so I can’t speak to that, but during the day, the music is always jammin’ with R&B hits. If you haven’t tried it, you should.“

“Lonnie McFadden is an exceptional performer— he seamlessly intertwines moving renditions of jazz classics with KC jazz history and the most soulful tap dancing I have ever seen. We had to leave early this evening and were unhappy we had to miss the last half hour because he and his excellent band delivered a first rate jazz club experience. We will definitely return!“

“Went to a show at The Garage. Not a bad seat in the house, clean bathrooms, easy access to the bar, and CHEAP DRINKS! Got a shot of Jack and a Hamms for $7...AT A SHOW! Love love love this venue! Thanks again Chris for the hospitality. Beau Nasty's In The Pit Radio Show 💪🫠🤘“

“We stopped in before a show. The hostess was amazing!! Service was ok. For some reason the server didn’t leave water in our table, which every other table had. We ordered the ricotta and the calamari. Both were very good. The atmosphere was less than pleasant. We had a table behind us that thought every single person in the restaurant wanted to hear every word of their conversation. Clean restaurants. Great views of the city.“

“Burning love & French fríes“

“Our first visit. Chicken sandwich and fries (predicatable store bought fries, Krinkle cut). Service was outstanding! Scale of 1-10, would be a 6. Good enough to try again!“

“The negative comment from drunk town is someone who must hate the chiefs since it’s not even open yet“

“our 2nd time here from South Dakota the smoked turkey was incredible burnt ends you don't even have to chew. and the slaw is unbelievable we ate so much, then got the sampler to bring home a must stop every time we make the 5 hour drive to KC“

“We stopped by here before seeing a show at The Music Hall. It was great because it was within walking distance and we could make a reservation. I have been to the Drum Room countless times and had no idea about the restaurant in the hotel! We decided to split the grilled peach salad, the fried goat cheese salad and a side of fries. These salads were so good! I feel like you don't often hear people rave about salads after visiting a restaurant but these were both great. I would totally order them again. Our waitress was super nice and even let us know right when we sat down that they were short staffed and that she was also helping with room service. I always appreciate when staff is up front about situations like that because it helps customers understand and manage expectations. Our drinks were rather strong and we both had a hard time finishing them, but overall we had a good experience!“

“I'm not so sure about the Westport location after witnessing an employee kind of heavy set with dreads died at the tips snorting cocaine in the back by the dumpsters and selling drugs he had to be the cook and I just do not want any fairy dust on my waffles or my chicken I rather go braid water or bite the curb that is not what I expected to see when pulling up and I definitely don't want to spend my money with an establishment that knowingly hires drug addicts“

“I grabbed lunch at the bar before work. The bartender was fast, friendly and attentive. I ordered a plain chicken and cheese quesadilla and a plain cheeseburger with house made chips on the side. Everything was fantastic! The quesadilla really hit the spot and the crema on the side was excellent! I’ll definitely eat here again if I stay at the Crowne Plaza when I’m back in town.“

“The service and the food… 12/10! This was our first visit, but anytime we visit KC, we will be back! 🫶🏻“

“Small menu but quality food. Boulevard Burger was outstanding, as were the hand cut fries. The Boulevard Old Fashioned was fantastic. We sat at the bar. All of the staff was friendly and kind. Great food though a little pricey. The burger was $20 but we thought it was worth it.“

“Had great Easter Brunch here was super awesome food service atmosphere loved it!!“

“Always a great experience! Good food fast! Servers are the best. We eat in there at least 3x a week. Fair prices and good quality. Best North of the river. See ya tomorrow!!“
