“Delicious plant based options. We gave them a try on a recent trip and went back twice in one weekend. My kids also really enjoyed their food. Wish we lived closer!“

“My boyfriend and I visited for our anniversary. our service was phenomenal, cocktails tasty, and the was in our top favorite meals we have ever eaten! He had the Pork Chop and I had Prime Rib! Very Good!!“

“I’ve heard of Equal Minded in the past, but recently a friend hosted an event there and it was great! The space was easy to set up in, the coffee and snacks were great & the customer service. Since then, if I am in the area and I need to get work done, it’s becoming more of a place to pop into. The more I get to know about what they offer and the small businesses they support, the more I enjoy becoming a customer there. I also really like that they have some Sugar Free options & I really like their Honey Lavender Matcha too!“

“Great place, atmosphere, doing it again! #RushTraining“

“The food is amazing! Beckey was very attentive and friendly.“

“Great coffee, perfecto customer service and food!!“

“We we to Kate's for brunch on 9-6 and the wait was short, the service was amazing and the food was hot, fresh, and very good. If you are looking for a great place for breakfast at an affordable price I would highly recommend this place!!!“

“The place is as nicely done. Staff were excellent. Tour was great. Enjoyed the whole experience. Would recommend it to everyone.“

“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.“

“we had a great experience I'll definitely be back!“

“Went for dinner after the Mayor’s Christmas Tree Lighting for our annual tradition. Every step of our experience was excellent. It started with friendly hosts that sat us. Our server was attentive and friendly. The restaurant was lively and beautiful. My meal was the salmon which was one of the best salmon dishes I have had. My sister had the turnip vegetarian plate which was also good. I have been many times, but this was an exemplary visit.“

“We happened upon this place, honestly. Because we needed to use the restroom but, we wanted to be good patrons and checked out the menu. Opted for the Jerk Chicken Bao Bun & Blackened Shrimp appetizers.
Oh my god!! I swear, they have the absolute BEST jerk chicken I've ever tasted. Perfectly grilled/smoked and flavorful and just the right spice, on a soft steamed bun. The blackened shrimp was also phenomenal with great char and served atop jerk sauce and tropical fruit to complement the heat & sweetness.
The gentleman who served us (our bill said his name was Jims D) what a great conversationalist. We talked about the history of the place and how they are working to get their liquor license (which is taking quite a bit of time with the city, btw). We were having about the food and he mentioned another dish they were cooking up, which included this amazing cheezy/garlicky mashed potatoes. Tasted like it had both regular & sweet potatoes. If we weren't already so full, we would've got some to go!!
If you're looking for a chill atmosphere and tasty Ethiopian/island food - this IS the place to go!“

“Me and my mom stopped by while in town for a concert and everything literally was PERFECT. we have been raving in the car since leaving and Tiffany was the most perfect server that we were blessed with. We had the pretzel app, the stockyard fries, and the mac and cheese with bacon and everything was out quickly and again, absolutely astonishing!!! much love to Tiffany, and because she was so proactive we got to the concert DEAD ON time.“

“Had a wonderful brunch there. The menu doesn't have anything outlandish on it, mostly brunch staples. But everything was prepared perfectly. Bacon super crip, breakfast potatoes golden brown and the poached eggs had that perfect jammy-not-too-runny yolk. Spritz 39 was a great cocktail.“

“Absolutely amazing food! 10 out of 10! Extremely good people working there to top it off! Chill atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

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

“Great tastes, nice menu, great customer service, and very consistent. I can always count on Jerusalem Cafe.“

“My entire party agreed the food was fresh and delicious! Many options from which to choose.“

“Amazing food and staff. Will definitely be going back.“

“Vietnam Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat. We all love the pho. Spring rolls are amazing and so are the crab rangoons. Our last visit there must have been an ice shortage. LOL and there was some new servers so they weren't very attentive to us but we would go back every day if it were possible. Our kids even love Vietnam Cafe“

“Perfectly and freshly prepared menu items that just called on Spain! Absolutely delicious, charming surroundings and immaculate service. Luke and Megan made La Bodega totally memorable with their charm and polite kindness⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Today was my husband's 75th birthday. He chose to have his celebration meal at Season's 52 and we were pleased as usual with the service (thanks to Michael) and the delicious food in true Season's 52 beautiful ambiance! It was truly memorable experience.“

“We had a great experience today with a work group. The service was fantastic and the food was phenomenal.“

“Everything is so delicious 👍“

“Popped in to assist a friend with some phone issues while they were there eating lunch. While my focus was not on eating, the food looked well prepared and spoken highly of by those eating. Did partake in a vanilla latte. Found it to be simply delightful. Their core business appears to be chocolate and based upon what I saw and heard, they have that dialed in. Well worth popping in and checking out“

“amazing meal and staff. first time tonight but won’t be the last“

“Got it on door dash but was the best bite of food I’ve had in a while. Everything was fresh and delicious!! I got the ahi tuna bowl! I loved the cauliflower rice option. I also got a gluten free chocolate chip cookie and cucumber mint cooler! I loved all of it!!!“

“I never expected to find such a gem scrolling for breakfast on google. Their breakfast menu brings a beautiful blend of culinary fine dining with home style comfort food. The owners are so kind and genuine quick to strike up a conversation. And their house made chai tea is absolutely to die for, I will definitely be back time and time again for that alone. I can’t wait to come back and try their specials!“

“We went here three times yesterday. Yes, three times. We were at an event around the corner and were able to walk over. We ate at 5 of the venders. All were fabulous. Mushroom burger, paneer wrap, avocado toast, curry fries, focaccia, street corn, and ice cream. All the staff were so kind and engaging. It was easy to find many GF options too. Just wish there would have been more heater lamps since it was cold.“

“5 star service. Celebrated a birthday and it was better than we could have imagined. The table ordered two flatbreads, tomato soup, a Mac and cheese entree, and a mushroom Swiss burger. Food was delicious, quality ingredients, and generous portions. Absolute value for the money and experience!“

“Awruff! Bay Boy Sandwiches at the Commons! Where even to start! Tail-Wagging fun from the moment I walked it! Sports games, arcade games, lawn games, and skeeball! This place has it all! 🏈 🎯 🕹️I got a mouth-watering sandwich, The Bandit! Roast beef, smokey cheddar, red onion, raspberry jam and horseradish all on a delicious Dutch crunch roll! 🐶💚🥪 The atmosphere was high-energy and just felt less like strangers, and more like your own pack. It took a minute for our food to be ready, but it was so hot and fresh, and the staff were so nice I didn't mind! 10/10 🦴 will definitely be back!“

“This place is just an absolute delight. The employees are so friendly and helpful. The crepes are just beyond incredible. It is so relaxing and fun to grab a table and just enjoy the vibe for a bit. The menu includes just a little bit of everything. The peach crisp crepe I just had was sooooo good!“

“If you want the most ever Arabian (i miss home) food it's them. I can't go to them really mostly but i tell you what?
When i go thire? I swear I'm not lying. I am in home sweet home. Pov: i have been in the us since 2008 didn't got home tired many places but never even close. 1000 stars not 5.“

“My daughter vegan and myself non vegan enjoyed this restaurant equally. Amazing food and service. I can’t wait to return 💞“

“I ordered from here online. I called ahead and got some suggestions because I am pregnant. John was beyond helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions. He told me to put a note in my online order about being pregnant so they would be aware. He even called back and let me know one of the ingredients was not safe so they would be leaving off. It made me feel so good they took my concerns seriously. 10/10 recommend.“

“Este lugar es mágico compañeros de trabajo son de otro nivel , el lugar, el ambiente la comida es fabulosa recomiendo totalmente y en especial de noche es muy único... tuve la dicha y el honor de haber trabajado en THE BRICK si ven este comentario chicos ,muchas gracias por grandes momentos que me regalaron en este mágico lugar ♥️ pidan toooooodo el menú“

“My daughter and I go up for boba 🧋allllll the time!! She tries everything and I absolutely love the sparkling ✨ strawberry 🍓 lemonade with the strawberry popping boba! So so good! Their ice cream is amazing too!! ❤️“

“Everything was amazing, but our waitress was the best part! She was so friendly & knowledgeable & her smile brighten our day!!! Her name is China, I would recommend going just to see her!“

“Stopped here for breakfast before leaving KC - so worth it! The cinnamon roll, gooey butter cake, and breakfast hash were delicious! This place was highly recommended and I can see why. The hot mocha latte I got was great too! The place was packed and busy but they weee FAST on getting food and drinks out.“

“I adore Cafe Corazon, and am genuinely shocked that I haven’t reviewed them yet.

I have held office hours at the Westport location since they opened and with years of history behind us, I can definitively say that Cafe Corazon is one of the best coffee experiences to be had in Kansas City.

I say experiences for a reason. Friends, I don’t even like coffee.

Of course, they have a stellar regular menu with great coffee drinks. Seasonal menus are inventive and I’m partial to anything Manzanita flavored in autumn because they put these little cinnamon apple crisps on top and it’s delicious. The coffee flight is fun to order with a friend but for me, the Dulce de Leche Latte, iced with extra drizzle is just *chefs kiss*. Occasionally I’ll add an extra shot if I need the jolt and it’s incredible.

Once, Alejandro saw me on my way in and started making my drink before I hit the door, so I had it in hand by the time I hit the register - which leads me to another thing Cafe Corazon does extraordinarily well. Their team is always so friendly and service-oriented. I love it!

They offer a comprehensive Yerba Mate menu, and it’s fun to overhear staff explain the history and ritual to folks who’ve never tried it before. The empanadas (made by Pan Caliente, a local Argentinian bakery) and accompanying chimichurri sauce is out of this world.

The artwork is colorful annd vibrant and I love when they decorate for holidays. They have a gorgeous ofrenda every year for Dia de los Muertos. The sense of community and Latin American culture that shows up so intentionally in every detail is just as warming as the coffee. That’s why I say experience.

Cafe Corazon has tasty coffee but it’s so much more. This location is a cozy little haven on Westport Rd. and I’m so happy to see them continue to grow and influence the KC coffee landscape.“

“Amazing food, quick service, and friendly staff.“
