“Passing through KC on a multi-state road trip, looked up best BBQ spots and Q39 was on multiple lists. Lunch did not disappoint. Wife and I had the Judges platers. Chicken, pork, and sausage for her. Brisket, ribs, and sausage for me. All of the meats were amazing.Our server, Maddie M., was very friendly and helpful in choosing options. Normally we enjoy having a slower paced meal but since we're traveling it was nice that we were in and out in under an hour. Highly recommend!“
“I absolutely loved this place! The food was great, the staff was very kind and attentive. The pricing was right too! You get a lot for your money and it’s *delicious*. I’ll be coming back the next time I’m in Kansas City!We also had a vegetarian in the group who tried the jackfruit and was a fan!Vegetarian options: The jackfruit was great!“
“5 stars with a caveat. Food incredible. Wait staff very good. Almost every employee smiled as they walked by. Reservations at 4. Promptly ordered drinks and a seafood tower. In 30 mins more drinks and another dozen oysters. 20 mins another round of drinks and crab cakes. Now it's 5:15. Hostess trys to take our menu. We were about ready to decide on dinner. She said she needed the menu as table was reserved for others at 6 and we'd better hurry. It totally threw us off. Not like we were just chit chatting. Sort of a strange way to say thanks for spending $300 with us. I guess the 2 hour rule is a midtown thing as I saw it at next place we tried to eat dinner at in Brookside. Besides the rude hostess, it is a midtown KC gem. Guess us farm folks with stay out South next time.“
“My wife Gina and I had the Schnitzel and it was as good as we had or better in both Salzburg and Berlin. The Stiegel draft beer bought back memories of visiting the brewery in Austria. Highly recommend a visit it’s a great place. Our server was great as well open.“
“How isn’t this place 5 stars?! WOW. My date and I had an amazing experience from the atmosphere, the food, and our incredible waitress Danielle. She was such a treat and very knowledgeable of all the products. I will definitely be coming back!“
“Our waitress, Karen B was fantastic! She made our evening amazing. I'm 68 & she got the biggest tip I have ever given. The only thing that was bad, they wouldn't take my sons coupon for his birthday. It did say not on .holiday, I realize it was Easter Sunday. Again kudos to Karen B. I will be back & I sure will request her. Thanks for making it a amazing meal. CraigParking: More than plenty!Kid-friendliness: Our waitress made my Grandson day, being so accommodating. He talked about her all the way home.“
“My husband and I have been to Swordfish Tom’s at least half a dozen times in the past couple of years and it’s always been a top-notch experience. Sure, sometimes you have to wait outside for availability, but it’s worth the wait and I personally think it adds to the “speak-easy” vibes. Drinks are phenomenal and they always seem to have a wide variety of cocktail options. Even if you don’t see something on the list that sparks your interest, the bartenders has always been so friendly and willing to spin up pretty much anything your heart desires! We love it for a date night!“
“This is the best theater in the Metro area. I always check to see if the film I want to watch is playing here first. There might be bigger screens or more movie selections elsewhere, but nothing beats this place in terms of a great movie atmosphere.“
“Very cool room hidden off the alley. Had an Italian Beef (Jim's Beef) and had low expectations. Being from Chicago I was a bit snobby about anyone else outside of the Windy City doing an IB right. My apologies. Great sandwich. The bread was perfect. Tender, juicy meat. Giardiniera nice and spicy. My only gripe would be the lack of fries as a side. I had the jalepeno slaw and it was good, but fries are the natural side to a lovely beef. Will be back.“
“Great service & the best Italian food! Attention to details by all staff was great. Family style dinner was such a variety of classic Italian food. Great birthday dinner!Parking: Easy & close parking.Kid-friendliness: My grandkids (age 13 & 12) loved the food & atmosphere.“
“Amazing place! The wings were an absolute hit! Definitely a fun spin on tradition wings. We had the honey chipotle flavor and it was so good! We couldn’t get enough! Our burgers were awesome! They’re big, juicy, flavorful! Everything you want in a burger! Service was great! Cece was so pleasant and kind! Absolute sweet heart. Definitely should add this place to your list!“
“I stumbled across this place on Facebook and had no idea what it was. They were hosting a nickelodeon themed party with trivia, coloring, and themed drinks!I was nervous at first because we were sharing tables but I got to meet some of the coolest people there and had a blast!! They even hyped me up for winning 4th place in the coloring contest haha.If you love board games, meeting new people, and looking for adult fun without all the craziness of downtown this is a great place to go! I think they host dungeons and dragons here as well and I would love to learn how to start.The food is tasty, but it could be better. But it's not a restaurant, it's a gamers paradise!“
“Up-Down quickly became a KC classic. Everyone will find a game they enjoy and every game is only 25 cents (via tokens bought at the bar). The bar is expansive and the rooftop patio is a great place to enjoy the city views. If you're hungry you can grab a slice of pizza inside.“
“I've been going here for 20+ years (their old location in midtown) and it never disappoints. Chili pepper wontons always a must order item. Ants on a tree and the braised pork and shiitake noodle soup are two of my favorites. China moon is also a great appetizer to start off the meal the plum sauce on the side is so good.“
“This is our favorite taco place! The food is delicious and I can get beef cheek here. I placed a carry out order and service was prompt and courteous. They made sure I had everything I needed before I left. I cannot say enough good things about Taqueria La Nueva!! Love this place ♥️“
“I had the duck and a sake flight. It was delicious and the flight was super interesting. My husband had the salmon. The menu is more set up for sharing, but the 2 dishes we had were full servings. It's also farm table seating. Meaning long tables they sit multiple parties at.Service was wonderful. Atmosphere was stunning.Highly recommend reservations.We got the brownie dessert, this wasn't my favorite and really expensive for $15. The video is of the creme Brule (not the brownie)“
“I haven't been here in a long time and there have been many changes. I was pleased to see they still had the stellar on tap selections and the menu was varied. I got the Poke Nachos as they intrigued me. I was pleased with the portion size and the flavors. My hubs got the classic cheeseburger & fries. The fries were yummy- seasoned just right and the burger was meaty. It was a Monday and I was shocked to see it so busy. The noise level was extremely loud. Our server was attentive. The table has an iPad that you can use to summon your server order and pay.“
“My first time in, and I found it to be charming. A bright and tidy place in a more historic part of town. The baristas were sweet and fun. If you get a drip coffee and choose to enjoy on premises, you pick out your own mug and get a free refill. It was a perfect Sunday morning stop.“
“A nostalgic environment. The menu is limited, but the food is excellent. Note that the menu slightly changes from week to week, or month to month or seasonly. So check their website. The artwork at the 21c was beautiful. And the TV was showing silent movies from the past. An excellent restaurant for dinner. We'll definitely be back.“
“Not sure what the theme for this restaurant was, but I had the impossible burger, and I was deeply impressed. I have been a beef eater, all my life. This burger was amazing. Would recommend trying it if you were curious. The staff was amazing, I can't remember the waitress name now, it was one of those 'like this city name but without the last letter's people. She did amazing.“
“Tried this place for the first time on a Friday at 7:30 and we were seated immediately with no reservation. The space was small, but very cool and good vibes. Drinks were good and the servers/bartenders know what they are talking about. I'll have to try food next time I'm there“
“My husband and I held our wedding reception at Chingu, and they did SUCH an incredible job with the private event / restaurant buyout. The team went above and beyond to ensure our vision was brought to life, from the menu to the decor to the dance floor. It's the best restaurant in town for a date night, and I am so happy they are extending that experience to private events too. No matter what the occasion is, if you're looking for excellent food and a great vibe, you have to check out Chingu!“
“I stopped in for some hibachi and crab Rangoon’s and they were great. They had a lot of different sushi options and even have a sushi boat for some orders. The food was so hot and delicious. My server was Nena and she was incredibly sweet.“
“If you need a place to impress someone, have a date night, or just a cozy comforting meal, Antler Room is THE place. Every dish is a slice of heaven, and the homemade pasta is to die for. The staff and atmosphere are always warm and inviting. GO... any chance you get!“
“We LOVE Milwaukee Deli to the point where we knew we had to have it as a late night snack at our wedding! We worked out a catering order with Jon who was so great at assisting us and making sure what we ordered showed up at our venue at the requested time! We didn't have to worry about a thing on the day and just got the glorious news from our venue coordinator that the pizza had arrived! Our guests DEVOURED this pizza. Thanks again to Jon and Milwaukee Deli for helping to make our special day even better!“
“Went last night, a Friday, for the first time after happening across it looking for cocktails nearby. I live in Mission and had no idea this was here. I hesitate to be too glowing because I want to go every night and will need a seat! ? The drinks were *chef's kiss* and staff superb - we had our own girls night and it was the best ever! My one and only request would be they have some small nibbles available. I'm sort of a lightweight with alcohol and nuts or the like would help me have that second cocktail. “
“We had the best Saturday fun-day here. Logan and Candice were friendly, fun, engaging, and hilarious. The crowd was chill and friendly. Any bar with jcheese balls is a win, and the overall design and vibe of the bar is top notch. I am sad we don’t live closer, but we can’t wait to go back. Thanks for an awesome day!“
“Anytime I have people visiting from out of town, and they want to have a nice meal that isn't BBQ I take them here. The food, service and ambiance are always fantastic. Their menu is so different than anything around here and sitting in the dining room feels like sitting in a French restaurant.They have a rotating chef's special, a great deal on their steak frites on Tuesdays, delicious French desserts (home made profiteroles, say WHAT?! yum. And don't even get me started on their mille feuille when that is around... absolutely fabulous).The wine selection is great, they have a non alc option that seemed interesting but I decided to go with their non alc cocktail which was delicious. Cocktail menu is solid, and they even carry my favorite beer, Duvel which is such a European staple and not always easy to find in the city.“
“Ludo's Shuffleboard bar is such a great addition to Martini Corner. After a friend date night at Noka, we went here to check it out for the first time. I love the fun, colorful branding that continues to the menu itself. The cocktails are as creative as they are delicious. They offer great wines and beers too - something for everyone. I've also been to Ludo's for a work happy hour where they rented out the whole bar. It's such a great size for happy hour "takeovers" and the staff was super friendly, helpful, flexible and easy to work with. Highly recommend a night out at Ludo's or even renting it out for your next event!“
“This dinner experience was exceptional. Our server, Maxwell, was one of the best servers I have ever had. He was knowledgeable, attentive and very friendly. I highly recommend their oysters, you can order them individually or 1/2 & full dozen. I enjoyed the west coast variety. My steak that I ordered was a 16 oz ribeye with blue cheese potatoes and mushroom pan roast. Everything was cooked to perfection and the meal was extremely satisfying. If you’re in the area and your budget allows, I would suggest you treat yourself and enjoy a dining experience here.Parking: There are 2 parking garages but they are not connected to the restaurant, nonetheless, it is a short walk in a quaint village like setting.“
“Ordered at the kiosk as I've done in the past and just waited in front of the kiosk on the wall for the text to say my order was ready. Some time passes and the staff are asking others if they were here to pickup but no one asked me anything. I continue to wait but I see a bag sitting but didn't bother to ask if it was my order because I have not moved since I've ordered and no One has addressed me like they did the other guest and I haven't received a text message.Message comes 15min after order was placed which is fine but when I go to get my food and the guy ask what my name is and grabs the bag that appears to be the same bag that's been sitting for awhile (keep in mind burger and fries 10min sitting is equivalent to 30min due to how quickly it gets cold). I ask has that bag been sitting awhile he says no it just came up, I reluctantly believe him because I was looking at my phone for a min so just maybe It could have been a different bag. Get to the car and everything is warm but closer to room temp. I'm instantly annoyed because either you served me old food or you lied and the bag has been sitting in my face the entire time while you looked in my face and didn't bother to say what's the name on the order just to check and make sure my order wasn't ready and you forgot to send my text message. Things happen but service is crucial if you want repeat customers. $15 in the trash because cold food sucks, let's do better.I am editing my review due to the response from ownership. I'm not sure how I ended up with lukewarm food since when I ordered I never left the ordering space, I could see every fresh burger prepared right in front of me however my order didn't reflect what was in my bag and I didn't have the time to get it remade due to picking up my son. However I will admit I was extra excited to get my burger due to it being the only thing I can eat in Lenexa due to limited vegan choices. I didn't think anyone would care about my small disappointment and the fact that a response was made from management made my day. So I revise my review because it's not the end of the world and I have always had great food when I do come to Cosmo. Thank you for response it was really appreciated. I will be back☺️“
“I had a great time at Blade & Timber in Leawood. It was my first time trying axe throwing and I was pleasantly surprised by how fun and easy it was. The staff was super friendly and helpful, they taught me the basics and gave me some tips to improve my throws. The place was very clean and well-maintained, and the atmosphere was lively and upbeat. They also had a full bar and a nice selection of snacks to enjoy while throwing axes. The only downside was that it seemed a little overpriced for the experience. I paid $35, which felt a bit steep for something that didn't require much equipment or skill. I think it would be more reasonable to charge $15 or $20 per hour, or offer some discounts or deals for groups or repeat customers. Overall, I had a fun at Blade & Timber and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and exciting activity.“
“Good people and great food!! We met the owners on trip out of town recently and we were a little embarrassed that we had never been to their restaurant. Thought we would give it a try and we were impressed. The food was exceptional and made with obvious care and attention to detail. The menu has something for everyone. Can confirm that you won’t find a more genuine couple of owners and attentive staff. Excellent hidden gem!!“
“Pic is of the lobster tacos and skillet queso. They were both amazing. We also had the Korean tacos and street which were delicious as well. Skillet queso was too spicy for the kiddos but perfect for me. Finishing touch was the amazing KC Taco margaritas. Definitely coming back.“
“Really fun and laid back spot. Apparently the owner is my second cousin once removed (I think) so my dad was excited to go here when visiting from AR. It was a beautiful day and I love that on such days they’re open to the outdoors. That plus some great early 2000s pop punk classics really made for a great atmosphere. I asked for their most popular drink which was their blueberry specialty cocktail. It was delicious!“
“We visited Blade & Timber for the first time (None of us had ever thrown an ax before) to celebrate our daughter's 17th birthday. The service was excellent. Food was great. But our coach Winston went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and having the best experience possible! We can't wait for our next visit!!“
“The food, service, and ambiance were amazing. It is a great place to enjoy some college sports or major games. The wings are the best in the Metropolitan area. They come out fresh and ready to go. Come enjoy a great experience at The Peanut in Overland Park, Kansas“
“We stopped in just before 10:00 p.m. and they squeezed in an order of fried mushrooms and a Reuben. The fried mushrooms were amazing. The French fries were terrific. And who doesn't love a Reuben. We really liked the laid-back atmosphere and our server did a great job. Driving up to the strip mall looking front, we were a bit worried, but it was everything we were hoping to find.“
“Overall a great place; this has become mine and my wife's local spot.Twice monthly pool tournaments; an assortment of areas to play checks, chess, or dice; local beers; and fantastic cocktails.One of the best old fashioned I've had in a while (if you're a fan of Rye, if not, make sure to mention it).Have spent several long nights here shooting pool and enjoying good company.Parking: Street parking directly next to the bar, but its a gamble if there will be any available. You may have to drive further down and take a short walk.“
“Kyle owns this great KC gem. It’s a clean and friendly atmosphere in the heart of KC. Beer, whiskey, wine, no cocktails. Kyle is a beer lover but won’t steer you wrong with you spirit selections! I had a great time Chatting with him and trying Penelope and Barrel Craft bourbons!“
“Elise at Toms Town was amazing. She gave a great tour and the tasting with her was so fun. She has us addicted to the double oak Bourbon!If you do not drink bourbon, you can still enjoy the tour. Loved looking around and enjoyed the video of all the history that this distillery has. The food was an added bonus!“
“Excellent food & service. My first time experiencing an upscale Thai place and I loved it - my favorite was the appetizer combo and the spring rolls were to-die-for. Must try!!Parking: Parking garage is around the corner, 5 min walk to your car, parallel parking outside that is 2 hour limit.“
“Food was great, really good cheeseburger and half fries and half onion rings. Next time may get fries and then order a full order of onion rings. Food came hot from the grill, service was quick and friendly. First timer there. Will definitely be back again!!! Great little Irish bar with personality!!!“
“Been here several times, never tried the food . However the beer is good and cold , bartenders are spot on. It's a biker bar in the dot( so if have to explain it, you wouldn't understand) . Very cool place from what it was . And yesterday they had a benefit for a friend who was in a car wreck back in January. Very good turnout and everyone had a good time. With bikers there are no strangers only friends we haven't met yet.“
“This place is so fun. Great options for drinks, fun atmosphere, cozy. I usually go on weekdays because it is very small and gets tight. But it's full of cool patrons and a radical staff!Warning ..you might make friends here.Parking: Parking lot is small but not impossible..I used to find spots back home with my T16.“
“This is a hidden gem in Johnson County! Intimate cocktail bar with an amazing vibe. The only place around with an extensive Mocktail (Non-alcohol) menu! Great for a unique couple outing or meetup with a friend. Staff is professional and great!“
“The 119th location on March 27 th after regular lunch hours was very good and always has been food wise. Our server, a seasoned lady was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL and these youngsters should take serving, respect, kindness and knowledge classes from her. Servers like her are one in a thousand or less.Thank you!!!Dietary restrictions: Excellent observation by our waiter regarding my dairy allergy minus butter.“
“If you love a dive bar this is great! We live dive bars and on Fridays they have a pizza lunch Buffett for 10.00! Service was top notch and pizza pretty good. If you wanted a special type all you had to do was ask! Amazing service. Will be back!“
“Out of towner, tried this bar last night and let me tell you.. I’ll be back. Their regulars were friendly, staff was excellent, karaoke was a whole vibe. Ask this guy, who made my night by belting “I wanna dance with somebody” while giving one of the best shows I’ve seen in awhile. Table top and all.“
“I stopped into this Chili’s on a cross-country trip for a quick dinner. I sat in the bar area and was incredibly impressed with the service and the entire experience. The food was fresh and warm, the order was correct, and I watched as the assistant, general manager, Chris S., handled an interesting situation beautifully. Very impressed with his professionalism.“
