39 Best American Restaurants near Platte City

“Passing through on our way back home to Idaho, stopped by Roxanne’s Cafe and there were no regrets. Wonderful place with friendly people. The food was outstanding.“

“Our visit was sort of a treat as for the first time in months we ate at a fast food place inside. They're open for that. Few folks inside versus long wait outside. Masks are required. Shield at order desk. Ordering was quick. Food brought to the table quickly. Seating is limited, social distancing. Burger was very good. Had sundaes afterwards, too much fudge, but still good.“

“not sure whats going on but as a ‘recently former employee’ of this pizza shoppe i would like to give a personal shoutout to this place. most of the ppl here are chill and the front staff really do care about the customers and Platte City! great place to bring your family!“

“One of the best waffle houses we have ever been to. Highly considerate and friendly staff. Following notification of a severe allergy for my wife, the staff cleaned the entire cooking area, utensils, and surrounding surfaces to eliminate any trace of the allergy. Absolutely phenomenal, and cannot recommend enough!“

“I just ordered the Eggs Benedict Chicken Hash and it is so, so delicious! Everything I have ever eaten at Depot is super tasty. I highly recommend this place. You will not regret it.“

“Brooke was our waitress and she fantastic“

“Everything about Authentic Taste of Jamaica was amazing this evening!!! We stumbled across this delicious date night after reading Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. The service, food, and the opportunity to visit with the owner was awesome. Started off with a Red Stripe, beef patty, and Kingston wings and ended with jerk and curry chicken. The food was so good!! Thank you for a wonderful experience we will be back soon.“

“Fresh salad and wonderful grilled salmon. Great local vibe. Enjoyed talking with the owner and local patrons. Definitely recommend it!“

“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“

“Absolutely delightful lunch!! My mother-in-law and I stopped while visiting some shops in town. What a treat!!! This is a must stop when visiting Weston. Incredible food. We got the Squash soup and salad. Brie appetizer and she got the chicken salad sandwich. Everything was incredible!“

“Jim and the team there care, a rare commodity in this day and age. A friend of mine accidentally left behind his son’s teddy bear, 6 waitresses and Jim studied the picture and took down our numbers. Jim was in the back, one of the waitresses (wish I knew her name) said to hold on that Jim would want to be involved. Think about that, a waitress willingly involving a manager, and the manager CARED. 10/10 would recommend, good food, better people. I wish this business nothing but the best. 🙏“

“We were greeted by Lara. It was a pleasant experience. Order came quickly. It is child-friendly.“

“June and Aree are our "go-to" caterers for all of our events over the past two years. The food is excellent and reasonably priced, and they are just such nice people. They have always made our receptions wonderful. I highly recommend them. They have multiple food options, but we prefer their Thai food catering.“

“Fun place for a family to enjoy all the activities they offer“

“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!“

“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.“

“Burning love & French fríes“

“Nice course, well kept, good price“

“Awesome new Curderburger!“

“hot fresh French fries and my burger cooked exactly as I want it“

“Airport restaurants will always have overall low reviews due to higher prices vs the outside world and inflated expectations. It's the airport remember. Its owned and operated by the government. Lower your expectations. With that being said, I enjoyed what I had. Cant speak for whole menu or consistency of quality or service but the chicken sandwich with shoestring fries were damn good.“

“Jeanne was the best. Recommended a great dinner very personal and fun to talk to at the bar 5 stars just passing through and loved.“

“I did carry out. They came out so fast after I check in that when I called to make sure they included steak sauce she was already at my car. Everything was delicious. I still feel like they should go a little heavier with the season on the steak. I had to add some when I got to the house but that's just me nitpicking. It was great“

“2 very simple words. fast and delicious 😋“

“Having been stationed here 25 years ago as a 95C in the old DB, South Gate was a place I frequented. Now that they turned the old visitation room into a diner I had to check it out! Was not disappointed, the food was pretty good. Limited menu was still pretty appealing.“

“This place is SCRUMPTIOUS! First time here and will FOR SURE be a return customer! And the beer, chefs kiss 💋“

“The staff was wonderful! Very convenient to not have to leave the hotel after a long drive to get food, however the margarita in the margarita pizza must’ve been in the other room. Definitely was just a cheese pizza with a few tomatoes on it, no basil!“

“Our favorite place to eat, the food is clearly made from fresh ingredients, the staff is always friendly, and the atmosphere is a perfect sports/bar vibe. Our favorite part is upstairs, where you can host or attend social events. It has a total speakeasy vibe to it that we adore. The food, staff, and vibe are so great we’re holding our reception upstairs! Leslie the manager and Neller the chef have been so great to work with and are so focused on making our day exactly how we hoped.“

“Sarah and Peyton are amazing. Above par customer service. Food was fresh, drinks were cold.

Sarah went above and beyond and is an excellent example of what all bartenders should be.

Will be back over and over.“

“Was a little pricey for three people for three people that came out to about $53 to $57.00 waited a long time just to order our food and then had to wait a little bit longer just to get our order it took a little longer than expected but other then that the food was really good.“

“Fantastic American/Irish fare and delicious craft brews in a historic location. If you're looking at the bangers and mash, go for the spicy ones. The Sheperd's Pie is outstanding. Don't forget to stay late and check out O'Malley's next door! Hopefully you can catch Bob playing!“

“08/26/25: Today is a good day.
Rarely RARELY will I refrain from adding salt and pepper to my plate of food HOWEVER this day, the Chef was 5⭐ exceptional. I asked for a medium steak. It was indeed cooked medium. The seasoning and sear on the vegetable accompaniment was perfect. The potato wedges-crispy yet tender and moist on the inside. ThiS is what the elite Chefs speak of when they taste a perfect plate of food. Bravo to the Chef, She is amazing and pays attention to what we order. I will bring family here to sample the steak because this is a great cut of steak. Thank you Madame Chef, never ever doubt your powers. Thank you.“
