The Jazz on 39th is pretty cool, one of my favorite places to eat but its a (gasp) CHAIN Restruarant.

To answer fully I will need more info

1. What kind of food does said group want?

2. What kind of atmosphere(Laid back, wine bar, sports bar, fancy etc)?

3. Is dinner a prelude to getting pak'd?

I would def recommend Jack Stack or Lydias(very good italian) if downtown.  Both are very good and are big and given a reservation should have no prob accommodating a group.

Jack Stack is only overrated because it was rated the #1 barbecue restaurant on the rough ridin' planet, so, yeah, i guess it's impossible to be underrated if you're occupying the #1 spot.

JJ's is a great place for a date, their wine list is the best in KC

as it relates to the goings on outside, if you're staring out the  window then your date prob has a terrible rack.

also +1 on Westside Local, their Dark & Stormy's are great.  they used to have rabbit on the menu.  and their anchovies are like the size of a perch.  also, +1 on their deviled eggs, cosign.

Blue Grotto in Brookside is great for pizza, if you're into that.

West Side Local might be my favorite restaurant in the city. I know the person that grows the vegetables they use, which makes it that much better to me.

La bodega is pretty great (the original, not the one in Leawood)

Room 39 has a great (the best) brunch. Again, not the one in Leawood.

edited to include:

Bluestem, should go without saying.

Potpie (right next to bluestem) it is delicious, try it.

and, R bar in the west bottoms. best drinks in the city, and probably one of the best menus also.

That sucks. I have a friend that will make sure he to lets me know that he hates my places that I suggest every time we're out. I like to go to margaritas cause my family went there a lot when I was a kid. He hates it. I like PF Changs orange chicken. It's the worst thing he's ever had. I like mamas 39th st for breakfast. He thinks the service is unbearable. But he sure will tell you how great IHOP is.  :dubious:

Pierpoints has a nice little bar menu, but can be tough to get a seat sometimes on a Friday or Saturday night.

If you like German-ish food, try Grunauer.

Animal recommends the Olive Garden at 95th and Metcalf, but be sure to make your rezzie early.

Rieger Hotel is an interesting experience. Too small for a large group...could be decent date spot but can get pretty noisy. Kitchen is kinda out in the open at the back.

There's a new Peanut in downtown OP, BTW, for those who worship their wings.

The Lydia's haters are retards.    :jerk:



it's really not that good.  if you've been to a really good italian restaurant you would realize this and not fall on a sword defending it.
but go ahead and accept mediocrity, it's what midwesterns do best.

italian food butthurt huh? well that's a new one clams. i wonder if italian restaurant butthurt comes with a side of rigatoni? seems like clams would know. good job clams.

if i want italian i go to Italian Delight/Avelluto's.

if i want the best pizza in kc, i go to italian delight/avellutos and get one and then bring it home and eat it while my cat meows at me.

R Bar closed last weekend. :frown:

The guy who was the chef left a while ago anyways. He opened a butcher shop in the East Bottoms called Local Pig. It's fantastic.

i've been twice.
the first time i just got some jalapeno bacon.  it was basically incredible.
then three weeks ago i picked up two pork shoulders, two slabs of ribs, some spicy  sausage, and two campo lindo chickens.

they literally brought the pig in and will slaughter the pig right in front of you.  all in all, it's pretty kick rough ridin' ass but it's expensive.

Thank you for all the suggestions,

Thursday- Bristol, not my choice and it kinda sucked, put the wives to bed and went to Harrahs
Friday- golf at staley farms, place has turned to a shithole, dinner at Garozos, pretty good, ended up with a $600 tab after losing credit card derby,
            wives go to bed early because of warrior dash the next day, boys to Harrahs, buddy wins $2500 at blackjack in an hour and we hit the P and L
            after some drinks and finger food, everyone pretty hammered at this point we go back to Harrahs where buddy wins another $2500 in an hour.
Saturday- Drag ass to the warrior dash and watch wives slop around in the mud while drinking miller lite and knawing on smoked turkey legs.  Dinner
              at Jackstack which was honestly kind of a letdown, ordered Jacks best, it was OK but was really expecting to be blown away, stopped by
               Cashews for some drinks, then to the p&l, Oh and won credit card derby at Jackstacks and the crowd was going wild.
             
              Didn't make it to bed before 4am all weekend, a good time was had by all.

Has anyone mentioned Piropos yet?  It is pretty tastey.  The mrs and I went to Michael Smiths recently, it was pretty solid.  Has anyone been to the American since Selena (or whatever her name is) left?  Is it still fantastic?

No, but tell me how that goes.

Sausages are legit. I had the lamb cumin oregano sausage and it was the tits, lady friend had some chicken and apple which kind of sucked but i could of told her that before she ordered it.

They also have a really good siriachi aoli to dip your fries in.

Service kind of sucked but I'll give them a pass on that because they just opened.

Best bang for your sushi buck are the strip mall mom n pop places like Jun's @ 75th and State line and Haru at 135th & State line.

Nara downtown is pretty good and has a much more fun atmosphere than the above places but the food is not as good.  Same can be said about Raw (119th and Nall).

look, i'm sure that whatever fried rosemary chicken you had was just fine. i'm also pretty sure that the chicken at el pollo ray in kansas city kansas would mop the floor with it and then put it with the baby in some bath water and throw them all out. case closed on operation chicken, vedict plaintiff.

Really just everything on 39th is delicious. Po's? Uhm yeah have the standard cashew chicken. Genghis Khan? Amazeballs, put an egg in your food, and eat like 7 crab rangoon. D'bronx? Duh. Prospero's bookstore? Even their shelf dust is probably delicious.

jazz  :drool:

forget to read the thread title?  last i checked we were talking about restaurants in this thread, inspector Clouseau.  maybe someone changed the subject and i missed it.  not sure.  i do remember when we were talking about dive bars in a different thread and i stated that DB's is the best dive bar in KC although i don't think i said it was my favorite dive bar.  would be kind of  weird to have a favorite dive bar.  matter of fact, i don't go to many dive bars anymore.  doesn't change the fact about DBs though. its still the best.  maybe in norcal people eat at dive bars? so you just assumed these threads were basically the same?

It had everything you could ever ask for. Halfway seedy residential neighborhood? Check.  Lady eating at the table next to me wearing fur on her shoulders?  Check. Server named Vincent? Check. Bartender named Vinny? Check.  To top it all off a guy came in and sat at the bar just as I sat down.  He was wearing a velour track-suit and when he left Vinny said, "See you later Mr. Rizzo."

The food was good too.

Yes, its pretty good but I would say overrated based on what I had read.  There wasn't anything we had there that you would just go head over heals about.  Dont get me wrong, I want to go back and try some other things but there wasn't anything that stood out to me as a must recommend.  Kind of a too cool for school type place someone on here is going to rip me for thinking it wasnt the most amazing food this side of New Orleans.

The thing about PF's brunch is their build your own bloody mary station (if you like a BM)

As for Gram and Dun, I'll have to put that on my to do list. They were going to call the taco place "Big Papi's Tacos" but apparently David Ortiz was all  :nono: So now it'll be called "Taco Republic".

i've never been to en chamas.  fogo was my one and only shot at a brazilian steakhouse. 
i was really kind of mad after i paid +$150 for that crap. 

i mean. if you're trying to get your beef/lamb on and prefer quantity over quality, then you might like it.  but i'll never go back.  the gf liked the salad bar, i did a once over and concluded it looked like a salad bar potluck from some retirement home.  then headed back to my seat and started gorging on the overcooked meat until i felt like i had eaten as much as was possible for me.  and then felt gross. 

i met a hungarian girl who said it was her favorite restaurant in kc.  others must like it too, it's been open now for a few years.  for that much money though, you can get a better meal in kc.

of course cordish is going to eff them.  was talking to the head chef from bread & butter last week and he's convinced they'll be fine.

Port Fonda, I agree with most here. Pretty meh. Gf and I split shrimp, pork, and beef tongue tacos. Guacamole was fantastic but then again when isn't it? Tortillas were subpar.

The way to do fogo is during restaurant week. Its only $30, and it includes dessert if you can leave room for cheesecake. I found room for cheesecake

I ate at the one in Chicago and I felt the same way.  Wasn't worth it.  Wasn't a fan of the meat runner guys/flip card system either.  Something about all those dorks running around with meat all over the place put me off.  I'd rather just order a dish and be done with it.  I don't need people carting meat back and forth to my table.

I have eaten there a dozen or so times, and it's consistently good.  They just re-vamped their pizza (I don't really order it that much) and it's amazing....maybe the best that I have had in KC.

Hi fellow downtown runner/resident/friend.

Love it for the beer selection....food I've had is a mixed bag.  Nothing bad so far, but a lot of meh.  Haven't tried anything from the butcher to take home....my condo isn't conducive to grilling at home.  The steak I did have there was pretty good.

i enjoyed Anton's the one time i went. i had the fish tacos, they were fine. along with several beers. great tap selection obviously. go downstairs and you can see all where they grow their herbs and green stuff and all that, along with a fish farm that they use for some (if not all) of their fish entrees (including my tacos).

Antons steak and fish tacos have been great. Lots of steak options. I think they just changed chefs again.

Wine by the carafe was a good deal and not crap wine.

colby garrelts finally won his james beard award last night.
good for him and good luck at his new joint Rye out south in Mission Farms.  That space has seemed to turnover pretty fast even with the great patio it has.  I love that they Little Apple red on tap even if it doesn't do it for the snobbiest of beer snobs.

Going here tonight? Suggestions? I was thinking fried chicken but they also have Trout  :lick:
deviled eggs, butcher board, smoked brisket burnt ends (i haven't had their bbq).  the chicken was good, but it was "just" fried chicken and imo lacked seasoning.  i prefer more cayenne than most places want to give me.
Can confirm on the fried chicken, it was a good thing they had the house made hot sauce on the table to make it interesting.

My wife had a pulled pork sandwich that was pretty damn good.

Kids are well behaved and have come through with shining colors in the past.  So ritzy places are in play here.

Anything goes.

Kind of depends where you are staying.  Most of my personal experience is everything north of the plaza.

I would think you would want to get some good BBQ since it's kind of the KC thing to do so any of the standard spots.  Gates, Bryants, or OK Joes all give a good experience and good food.  Not sure what part of the city you are in but Strouds is a good family place with great food.  Kids and you will love the cinn rolls.

I always enjoy pretty much anything on SW Blvd for mexican food, Beer Kitchen in Westport is very good and the kids would enjoy it.  If you want to get exotic Extra Virgin is very good and has some wild things on the menu like duck tongue tacos etc.  Depending on weather Haus down in Martini corner has a sweet patio, some interesting beers, and lots of different brat options that you could all enjoy.

Everyone loves pizza so maybe Grinders and they have cool junk to look at.  Favorite wing spot is The Peanut, get BLT's for those that cant handle the heat.  Wings are huge so only get 6 even if you are hungry.

Crown Center has some fun places to eat depending on kid ages....younger like under 10 (I guess, not blessed with children) Fritz's and Crayola Cafe are fun for kids.  Streetcar named desire is a weird place that actually had good burgers when I ate there years ago.  Gates if you want quick BBQ or Jack Stack if you want nice is probably where I'd hit on Sunday if not those other places.

ate at Juns last month.  I've had better sushi at 2 places in Topeka.

who knew Topeka was such a sushi hub????  :dunno:

that's not an endorsement of Topeka (especially since the best sushi place closed) but an indictment of how much Jun's sucked.

i've heard the food at fritz's sucks, but do kids care?  they have trains.
true, the goddamn ingrates hardly eat anything.   I will say the  OG Fritz's in kck is the best of a bad bunch and not nearly as crowded on any given Saturday

FYI, this thread is about making fun of ChiCat's farmageddon hotel out in the hood of the plaza that was far away from all the pak'ing.

chi pak'd with us at JJ's though, was that farmageddon?  i wanted him to pick up the hot black chick but chi wasn't down.

Back on the topic of Kona's locale, I'd say it's on the western side by a smidge.  At least I think of it as more western than eastern.

You know what I always forget about being on the East Side?  Grand Street Cafe.  That's a great place.  I wish they would move to the real plaza.
This place is great. Tried it for the first time and would go back.

Thanks for all the input fellas it is appreciated.  We will be staying at the race track.   Saturday is Worlds of Fun for a good portion of the day, might try one of the West Port suggestions on our way back.  Crown Center on Sunday so will probs hit one of the suggestions in that area.  Monday we will be visiting family in Topeka on our way back home.   :surprised: I like sushi!

Crown Center has some fun places to eat depending on kid ages....younger like under 10 (I guess, not blessed with children) Fritz's and Crayola Cafe are fun for kids.  Streetcar named desire is a weird place that actually had good burgers when I ate there years ago.  Gates if you want quick BBQ or Jack Stack if you want nice is probably where I'd hit on Sunday if not those other places.
as someone with kids,  I can say with full confidence the food at  Fritz's sucks and Crayola is only marginally better but they do serve beer.

Notice I never said good food in reference to those two.

Now that I've been to Fonda a few times, I think it's one of those places that's good, but just not worth waiting an hour to eat there. Although, if you're not hungry, you can always put your name in and go grab a couple of beers at Harry's or somewhere.

It was obvious that everybody in there wore Baldwin, but at least he admits it's their uniform. Either they pay their employees pretty well, or when you work someplace like that your main employment concern is looking cool instead of making money.

All-Star Pizza and Pub.  Anyone been?  Have had their pizza and wings(second place behind peanut in my book) a few times but last night was a burger deal.  Pretty good stuff.

Most surprising and wonderful thing was their beer menu though.  At least 30 beers on tap and several you probably wouldnt get but maybe one or two other places in town.

If you get a groupon somewhere and like the place, hop on TripAdvisor or Yelp or whatever and give them a positive review.  Groupons are hell on a business because they make basically no money off them and people who buy them are usually cheap asses that leave shitty reviews.  Most businesses are figuring this out finally.

We thought it would be too.  When we got there I think we were one of maybe three couples under 50 in the entire restaurant.   The waiter said that most of their business comes from regulars who live in Deer Creek. 

There was a jazz band in the back room that we stuck around to listen to for a while.  It was pretty cool but we eventually left to meet up with some friends over at Nick and Jakes.  I would recommend going there for the food but not for the atmosphere.

He looked kind of hunchy on the show.  Weird build.  The tiger pizza looked good.  I like to watch triple D while I eat because it makes me hungry and then the regular food I eat seems better.  It gets me through average meals.

Did Snow & Co. Last night for a pre dinner cocktail and finished it with dinner at Anton's.  Goodnstuff at both places.  Can't help but feel like you are getting ripped at Snow with 7.50 cocktail slushees coming out of a machine.  But I guess that's not bad for a premium cocktail. We tried the flight of 5 different ones and they were all very good. Rockafeller  :drool:

Had the steak burger at Anton's. Very good simple burger for the most part. Beer selection is impressive and the bar area is pretty darn cool.  Would go back for food or to just try beer.

not sure i ever told you guys about the time i went to brgr and got the fish and chips but here goes.  well, i went there in mid-Feb and ordered the fish and chips.  well, the order comes out and i'm looking at what should be fries/chips.  guess what?  the truth is, they were actual chips, like potato chips.  not fries called chips. the waiter offered to get me fries but i rebuked his offer b/c i didn't want to sit there and eat my fish and then later eat my chips fries, who does that?  i was pissed, haven't been back since.

funny sidenote- as i was walking to the car to leave, it was prob about 60 degrees out and i said to the lady i was there with that oh boy, only 2 more weeks of february so that basically means only 2 more weeks of winter.  then this march came and boy was i wrong about that one, snow and cold city.  oh well, c'est la vie i guess.  american troops in afghanistan fighting for america and i'm worried about snowmegeddon and windchill factors.  doesn't make sense sometimes.  go america, patriot fighters!

tilapia wouldn't be near the hit if it was called boarfish or brown dobber or something. so take this as a lesson to all you fish namers out there. you want to get people to buy and eat your fish? name it tilapia or crescent bay fish or geneviva or something like that. brown dobber? gross would not eat.

Just enjoyed some Jack Stack wings and BBQ beans.  :drool: As always the beans were good, but we are here to talk about those wings.  They come out in a little ceramic bowl thing and there are about 10 wings?  All nice and smokey looking with a few charred areas.  They have a cajun rub on them and we not sauced at all.  Different than a buffalo wing for sure, but very good.  I would put them as my #1 nontraditional wing for sure.  Well above any of those wild flavors at BWW.  Thank you Clams   :thumbs:

they use a dry rub and then dip them in butter.  maybe i hype them up more than i should but i've been eating an order a week for the past couple months.  i  consider all wings in the same category regardless of whether or not they use buffalo sauce to derive their heat or some dry rub or assgravy or whatever.  glad you liked them.

I guess there's nothing wrong with a little 'faux-Mex' every once in awhile. But, if you want authentic Mexican food, at least make sure the people cooking it and/or serving it speak Spanish. ¿Entiendes, Méndez?

Bonus: If there's a little grandma in the back rolling (flour) or patting (corn) out tortillas, you're golden.

Pissclams and others, tell me more about this pollo place in KCK. It's been over 7 years since I moved away and would like to try it out next time I roll through my hometown.

Enjoyed brunch at Pig and Finch in Park Place on Sunday morning (I had the Corned Beef Hash, Mrs. WNK had the Sunny Side Up Egg on Brioche).  Afterwards we walked about 50 feet to Marv's Delicatessen and ordered a brisket and corned beef melt (#14 Over and Under and Mrs. WNK had the classic Reuben) to-go for dinner that night.  And of course we had to share a small cup of Paciguo gelato on the way home.       :blush:

Wow, what a weekend it was in KC.  Got plenty of the city's best eats.

For those that recommended Jose Peppers: THANK YOU!  My taste buds exploded with the authentic south of the border flavor.  I had the Monterey Chicken Burrito and I can say, with no reservations, that it is the best meal in KC.  Hands down.  Not the best Mexican dish.  Not the best "non-bbq" dish.  The best meal.  Period.  End of story.  Comprenden??

Also ate at this little pizza bistro called "Pizza Street."  It was tucked away in some vacant shopping center in OP (off ~75th and quivera).  It was buffet style and pretty cheap.  The pizza was very unique - buffalo chicken, mac and cheese, baked potato, etc.  It was perfect for a little lunch spot.  The slices are really small so you can eat about 25 and sample all the different kinds completely guilt free. Not in the same universe as Jose Peppers, but I absolutely recommend it.

Depends on what kind of date you're wanting. If you want a quiet table with some privacy, then no, it's not a good date spot.

Rieger is perfect for a "quiet table with some privacy."  I mean, it's no dimly lit with high-backed booth seating.  But, IMO it's one of the better "date spots" in the downtown area.  Make sure to call in advance and make a reservation for the speak easy downstairs.  atmosphere is cool an drinks are incredible.  incredibly expensive too, but worth it IMO.

Well, YMMV, I guess. When I've been there, it's been loud and everyone has been pretty close to their neighbors, but it's also been full, so maybe it's quieter and more private on off-nights. It would be fine for a date...my point was just that it wouldn't be my first choice for a date if I wanted to have a more serious/intimate conversation. Here's a photo (http://www.theriegerkc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/IMG_1277-e1323134316177.jpg) so you can decide if it's what you're looking for.

Manifesto (http://www.theriegerkc.com/manifesto/), on the other hand, *is* quiet and private, by design. I think you can also call Manifesto on the text line Phil listed, so you can ask about their current reservation policy. Cocktails are each about $10, but they're hand-crafted and strong and delicious.

Split the Super Sampler App with the gf.  Everything was really good, except the onion rings were overcooked.  The entrees were more expensive than I expected from a place called "sizzles" but I will try them next time and see if they are worth it.  Decent beer selection.

Ate at the Opera House Saturday morning. It was pretty awesome. Apparently they have the best burger in city market. Also, they're breakfast sandwich and potatoe sides were the bomb. Pretty hipsterish. seemed like MC's dream spot. Also, some hipsters were wearing those baggy stocking caps to look super "I don't care about anything, suck it mom and dad, Save the earth, and meh, don't care!

I don't care about how they source they food from "Local growers" I just care that it was DAM good. Forgot the name of what I ordered but it was 2 huge fancy schmancy biscuits/gravy and a fried egg piled on a large chunk of sausage.

They also serve their coffee in French presses...Like you order a large coffee and they bring you a full French press  :love: :love:

REPORT:

When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie.  That's amore.  And i'd like to have some more'e.  More Pizza street that is.  So many different types of pizza to choose from -- it was like a whole cavalcade of pizza flavors!

It had all the basics: your cheese, pepperoni, sausage, etc.  But they also had all these authentic italian spins on the classics: Jalapeno pep, BufChick, and Alfredo Pizza (just like my nina used to prepare!)! 

Not to mention, piles and piles of pasta. 

Did I mention the best part yet?  It's a buffet.

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool.  That's amore.  That's Pizza Street.  That's my KC Restaurant lock of the year.

went to 'za st with bubbles one time before farmageddon and they kicked him out for stealing the ice cream he thought came with his buffet.

could have been the natty light he brought in his hoodie that did it, though. don't really remember.

Left over anything from a meal eaten at a restaurant is sad and gross.  If you didn't finish it, it's garbage probably. 

"Oh hey could I get some kind of box or whatever to put this little bit of food I have left on my plate in and take it with me to my house so I can reheat it and it'll be gross and not enough nom nom nom?"  Like is it just a snack then?  It's not a meal.  I don't know.  I don't care for it, though I do realize it is wasteful I suppose.  Something about it has always put me off.  No thanks I say even as a young gun.

I like left over chinese food

If it's takeout to begin with then I don't have an aversion generally.  It's eating at the place and then bringing the leavings home.  Somehow sad and gross.  Now that I think about it though I only eat Chinese food in the first go.  Reheating that is generally pretty nasty.  I don't over order so it's not too wasteful if at all.

left over MCB's?  couple q's:

1. They're not really very big.  How come you didn't finish it?  Too much 'naca and thin chips while you were waiting?  Hope you didn't fill up on that cornmeal dessert they give you.  Those are grizossss.  But my sister is bonkers for them.

2.  The MCB is a little thick.  How did you heat it up?  Did you slice the leftover in half?  Otherwise i feel like the MCB 'naca would get hotter than the sun and the grilled chicken would be an iceberg.

3.  Did you put their beans and rice in the doggy bag?  I think their beans and rice sucks.

I am a notorious CCQ/Salsa devourer when going to Mexican restaurants.  I usually eat a meal's worth and end up taking half of the entree home.

Unfortunately, I am not the foodie a lot of you guys are and can't answer the second question to your satisfaction (most likely).  I just nuke it and let it cool down until I can eat it again.

I love the cornmeal thing.  I've realized over time that I'm in the minority on that.  My wife always gives me hers.

 :shakesfist:

Started with the Roasted Beet Risotto (beef tongue, creme fraiche, watercress) - Probably the best thing I had that night.
Mrs. WNK ordered Rare Hare Barn Rabbit Cacciatore (bacon, braised kale, local polenta, olive bread) There were a few hidden bites of bones in the mix that the wife couldn't handle.  We switched meals.
I ordered Crispy Beef Cheeks (creamed hominy, grilled escarole, horseradish-Dijon aioli)  it was pretty good, but overcooked. 

One guest at our table had Cauliflower-Parmesan Sformato (grated Marcona almond, lemon brown butter, crispy potatoes, capers, swiss chard) which was probably the best Entree at the table.

It was good, but not good enough to go back and throw down a Benjamin anytime soon.  I'll eventually give it another chance.

I wish it did better business, the owner is super nice, the menu is unique and there aren't many Japanese restaurants in KC that aren't just bland sushi restaurants for white people. It's hard to compete though when 90% of the Westport crowd goes there specifically for Beer Kitchen and McCoys

Yeah, she's pretty awesome. I want it to succeed just because of her. The ramen is pretty legit. Maybe not NY ramen, but good. Hard for me to pass on the Yaki though. We've only been twice to the Westport location and both times there were fewer people than when she was out south in a smaller building.

yeah i should have looked at it more, we had just a pre-determined three course thing.. chips/guac, chicken and salmon tacos, chicken tortilla soup, desserts.

i did glance at it though, it looks similar, just more condensed, fewer items. probably less geared toward foodies. ie the beef tongue tacos aren't on there which i really like at PF.

was pretty disgusted with myself, why on earth would anyone choose to pay 3 bucks for an inferior product when bonito is cranking out the most delicious taco's in the world for just a buck. i mean just move this to the shame yourself thread, tia.

I went to Drunken Worm tonight, and enjoyed. It's a cute little Taco Lucha-esque place in the 39th street neighborhood. It's owned by some EMAWs who also own (owned?) Johns Big Deck (R.I.P). I had a pulled pork taco and it was great. Very cheap food too. Also, they were giving out free tequila shots as samples every 30 minutes, which was great.

Must see attractions. Go to jack stack if you want something nicer, but ok joes is the best you know it. If they don't mind being crowded, Grinders is a must stop. Best philly and wings in the area. Also, if you need something upscale one night and a nice steak, Antons is right downtown for you.

listen if you are from out of town and you get to try OK Joes, Gates, Arthur Bryant's, or Jack Stack, you can truthfully say you've had some of the best in KC.

this is a good time to ask about this.

going to be stopping in KC for a few hours on the way to a family event. wanting to possibly try a new bbq place if it's worth it. have had LC's, ok joes, arthur bryants, gates, jack stack and one other place I can't remember the name of. Any suggestos?

q39, rosedale, rj's..
Ms. Wacky's other side of the family run the rosedale joint and i've never even tried it. We should have a KC PAK where I cater in Zarda and Rosedale for a katz game.

Meh, Gates sucks. If I'm paying someone for a product or sevice I don't like getting screamed at.

Also, last time I visited the Linwood/Main location they attempted to run my buddy's CC for $150 on a $15 ticket. When I caught what I thought was an honest mistake just before they ran the card, I got the worst look I've ever rec'd. I sort of laughed it off and said "man, that'd be one expensive beef on bun!" and she responded with "honey, we ain't laughin' withchu." The other girl working the counter then said "bitch, why did you just run [the card]???"

Needless to say, I'm not going back to that mediocre, overrated place again. crap people.

Nope, I'd definitely include slave owners in the racist category. However, I do not consider myself a racist for being upset about Gates employees attempting to scam my friend out of money and then being absolute bitches to me when I ASSUMED it was an honest mistake.

When you're accused of being a racist there are a few options 1) Think to yourself, "Damn straight, I hate minorities!" and then proceed to tell everyone about it. 2) Think to yourself, "Damn straight, I hate minorities...BUT I don't want to be labeled a racist so I'm gonna try and justify what I said." 3) You've been wrongly accused in your mind, so you start rationalizing your comments and usually doubling down on the stupid thing you originally said, even though you didn't INTEND anything you said to be racist. 4) You feel like you've been misinterpreted, but you realize that race is a very sensitive issue and impacts people in a real way, so you review your comments and see if there is a better way to present your views/maybe they actually have a point and you should reevaluate some of your preconceived notions of race. Number four is a good mindset in life that will be beneficial for you and the people you come into contact with. The rest of those scenarios produce varying degrees of shitty results that stunt your growth as a human being and negatively impact the people you come into contact with.

I'll be taking a short sabbatical (not like Landon Donovan). For the record, though, I'm aware of more people on gE that personally hate me than people that are active on gE that like me. Even the couple that might like me have closer connections to those people that hate me. I just love the cats and people that love the cats. I'll be better.

For now, my self-inflicted penance for these transgressions will be getting lunch at the Linwood and Main Gates today. I'll provide a reflection of sorts. Hopefully I'll be blown away just as I was the by first visit visit back to Bryant's after they were briefly shut down last year after failing a random health inspection.

I shouldn't talk bad about that place for business reasons, but it's very underwhelming. It's also overpriced for what you get. I think they priced their tank 7 at like $8-9. I mean, what a jk.

Don't recall any insane prices,  but if their tank 7 really is $8 that's insane.  Food was ok,  had the bbq French dip Sammy.

Much like the owners other establishment, Coal Vines, this place is Meh. I'm excited that they rehabbed the building though. So win for the neighborhood when they go out of business and hopefully someone better takes it over.

Pro tip:  This is not a sponsorship, this is Ale House getting people from the kickball league to come drink beer that isn't on sale on a slow night.

A good French Dip is one of my five favorite meals, and Houston's is (maybe) the best I've ever had.

I will say, that I did go to the Cheesecake Factory this weekend, struggled to find something I wanted, and then went to the French Dip.  Was pleasantly surprised.

So guys, my friend was kind enough to score me a rezzie at Bridgers last weekend.* Not bad, not bad. Just this little place tucked away down a back alley in Westport**, no sign or anything. Anyway, real intimate***...so many beers****. And one of the few places in town where you can get some of that awesome Local Pig product.***** Will definitely be going again, if I'm lucky enough to get another spot.




* No rezzie required, place was wide open at 7 pm on a Friday.
** Right at the corner of Westport and Mill, can't miss it. Where America's Pub used to be.
*** Lots of seating. Probably 40 spots.
**** This is true, much beer.
***** Also, you can get it at Local Pig. East Bottoms, 10:30-7:30 daily.

well what if i told you that there is a nice little restaurant on 39th st where vince plays the piano at nightly and has for about seven years. then what if i told you that he will play anything from poison to nwa to miley cyrus on that piano and has a song book with about a thousand songs in it and takes requests from it. thirdly what if i told you that he loves for friends to come by and will let your wife sit up at the piano with him and sing along and basically do whatever she wants to do and be super nice to her. i mean i could even call him and be like hey man, pete's coming in tonight and needs you to serenade his lady specifically with this song or something. i mean wow! you want to talk panty dropper... :eek:

wow. so pete responds to everyone but me, huh? what a dick. on the flippy, it's the fourth or fifth time i've recommended thomas to him so i'm sure he's sick of hearing it.

Whoa, whoa there Rick Daris. I had never heard of "Thomas."  Sounded fishy.  I am going to go back and read your posts about this place, and re-evaluate. 


I checked their website, and it looked kinda "foo foo."  Is it?

man idk. maybe a weekend or something with a small group where you can make it a late night, but i do think you'd have fun tonight too. i think he usually starts around 7 and goes til close. let me know if you end up going and i'll give him a heads up. i've been around ten times and have always had fun but we also always get slightly intoxicated, stay til close and then either stay out with vince or make him drive us to where we are staying. here are the yelp reviews that contain "piano player" in them. most of them are pretty nice.

Guys, I don't have time to re-read this entire thread.  I have a hot date tonight.  Where should I go?   You know, someplace that basically guarantees the sexy time later ("doing it" if you know what I mean).

Playboy X and poonhound69 aren't answering their PM's.

Tannin has a good environment. La bodega small plates. Classic cup sit on front patio. That little Italian place South plaza. Name is escaping me.

Good suggestions.  You should think about changing your name to "Phil TITStola" with this sort of hard core romance advice at your ready.  That or just "Panty Dropper Phil," but that one might be taken, I don't know for sure.

I'll take these suggestions under advisement.  Thanks.

canco, Cinder Block Brewery is fun.

will have to try Kitty's Cafe
If you go to cinder block brewery on a Saturday,  there is a pretty good bbq food truck all day.  Kind of weird,  though,  you have to order from the bar and they will go outside and order at the truck for you.

you know what OK Joe's onion rings are like? they're like your old grandma Hazel (now deceased, rip) used to make them in the 1950's norman rockwell kitchen she used to have in Rochester, MN, and she'd fix you up a snack of onion rings and a milkshake in her giant chrome kitchenaid mixer blender thingie that looks like it was made from scrap metal from the Enola Gay

Man, everyone seems to like burnt ends way more than me. Like at Bryant's they are fine, but they are soaked in their gross rich and spicy sauce, and for some reason they seem to be the most popular thing there. At OK Joes, they are the definition of OK. I just don't get it.

it's great.  what did you get?

it was catered to my office last week. heres my b-down:

chicken- meh. i dont really like smoked chicken so my opinion here isnt reliable.
ribs- pretty darn tootin' good. not the best ribs ive ever had, but enjoyable. pulled off the bone but didnt fall off. just the way i like em!
brisket- the best item. very lean, which i like. not over-salted and plenty juicy. threw it on a bun with some of their spicy sauce. yum.
sausage- i love smoked sausage and this stuff was amazing when paired with their spicy sauce. lots of kick and plenty of bold flavors.
beans- decent. better than oklahoma j's but not by much.
slaw- had some really good apples in it. dont judge a Q place by the slaw, but i went back for this stuff.

have no idea what their menu looks like. its by westport off SW t-way, i believe. clams?

it was flavorful but it wasnt super smokey. idk... hard to judge based on catered Q. i think it was pretty good.

they have kind of a build your own sandwich thing at Q39. i do burnt ends + sausage (which is exactly what the Jon Russell sandwich is) and it's the best combo of meats that money can buy, imo

Q39 is pretty dope

it's great.  what did you get?

it was catered to my office last week. heres my b-down:

chicken- meh. i dont really like smoked chicken so my opinion here isnt reliable.
ribs- pretty darn tootin' good. not the best ribs ive ever had, but enjoyable. pulled off the bone but didnt fall off. just the way i like em!
brisket- the best item. very lean, which i like. not over-salted and plenty juicy. threw it on a bun with some of their spicy sauce. yum.
sausage- i love smoked sausage and this stuff was amazing when paired with their spicy sauce. lots of kick and plenty of bold flavors.
beans- decent. better than oklahoma j's but not by much.
slaw- had some really good apples in it. dont judge a Q place by the slaw, but i went back for this stuff.

have no idea what their menu looks like. its by westport off SW t-way, i believe. clams?

this is a pretty good breakdown.  here's my updated breakdown.

ribs.  i would love to be the lungs once contained by these bbq boner meats.  they finish them with a bbq sauce with a small amt of  honey flavor.

brisket.  i would love to he the hooves once supported by this bbq boner meat.  not a lot of smoke taste but very boss.  i like it better than jackstack.

chicken.  meh. 

pulled pork.  i would love to be the blood vessels that once intersected this bbq boner meat.  they finish it with apple cider vinegar/apple juice/small amt of rub. 

sausage.  have not tried.  will try on sunday.

beans.  meh.

fries.  cut in house,  i would love to be the skin that once contained this accoutrement. they make a chipotle ketchup in house which is boner city usa.

white bean cassoulet.   pretty good.

dinner roll.  great.  i butter mine and slop some pulled pork onto it and make a sandwich b/c that's what big dogs do.

i think that's all i've had from there.  i get the same thing everytime i've been there.

Title: Re: Kc restaurant suggestions
Post by: Spracne on October 31, 2014, 05:45:21 PM
How authentic is lulus?

Well lib, imagine, if you will, that you are in a small village on the Khorat Plateau, seated on the floor atop an ornate carpet passed down from the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai.  The year is 1743.  In front of you is a ceramic bowl overflowing with phat thai kung.  As you jab the fingers of your right hand (the right hand is imortant) into the phat thai kung and bring a sample of it up and into your mouth, you are struck by the complex menagerie of 4, 5 or sometimes 6 distinct flavor profiles, each note unique and yet the chord is harmonious. You're chewing.  You raise your head.  Suddenly, you're contemplating the sun's slow descent into the verdant river basin in the distance, way way over there.  Your host mutters some words in the demotic language of the hill tribes.  You smile, out of respect, and return to your ritual meal.  Over there, the water winks and dances as the last of the sun's rays skip across the river's surface.  The meal is now ended, and you position yourself near the dusty khong wong lek to regale your hosts with the folk songs from your youth.

That's the best way I can explain Lulu's.  You probably wouldn't like it.

How authentic is lulus?

Well lib, imagine, if you will, that you are in a small village on the Khorat Plateau, seated on the floor atop an ornate carpet passed down from the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai.  The year is 1743.  In front of you is a ceramic bowl overflowing with phat thai kung.  As you jab the fingers of your right hand (the right hand is imortant) into the phat thai kung and bring a sample of it up and into your mouth, you are struck by the complex menagerie of 4, 5 or sometimes 6 distinct flavor profiles, each note unique and yet the chord is harmonious. You're chewing.  You raise your head.  Suddenly, you're contemplating the sun's slow descent into the verdant river basin in the distance, way way over there.  Your host mutters some words in the demotic language of the hill tribes.  You smile, out of respect, and return to your ritual meal.  Over there, the water winks and dances as the last of the sun's rays skip across the river's surface.  The meal is now ended, and you position yourself near the dusty khong wong lek to regale your hosts with the folk songs from your youth.

That's the best way I can explain Lulu's.  You probably wouldn't like it.

I enjoyed this post.

It's a renovated gas station or auto repair shop, like the original Oklahoma Joe's on 47th St.  Asphalt/concrete floors, I think they still have the garage doors that slide upwards to open.  The atmosphere is great.  The food is good, but apparently trying to enjoy Thai food in KC is respected.  Going there enlightened me on the delights of Sriracha hot sauce, now the go-to condiment in the Dawg household.

NOT zocalo. brio is fine if you like generic Italian food, it always reminds me of the cheesecake factory. Gram and Dunn would be good, kona if she likes sushi.

they're on fire right now in KC, doing very well for themselves.  i think that they do a really good job developing their concept themes and executing on them.  people in their late 20's to mid 40's love what they do.
pretty good food, nothing like novel/story/bluestem but that's not what they're trying to be.  for them though, it's all about the concept.  i'm really interested in how they put together the spanish tapas, not many places can do it right.

your schtick gets old.  it's you and your downtown living against the world.

meiners was a specialty market, it was a compliment to places like target and hyvee. its closing isn't unique to the plaza, small grocers have been eliminated everywhere.  you should remind yourself of that the next time you walk the nice new aisles of your downtown price chopper.

meiners space has failed so many times..  how many times would you guess?  let me tell you.  meiners was in that space for a decade.  before meiners, that space was filled by muehlbach's west, another small, specialty market, for 62 years. after meiners closed, guess what went in?  ingredient.
3 businesses ~80 years.

but ya plaza residents just don't buy into the city life concept and end up driving to price chopper every chance we get.  rough ridin' idiot.

Two food places generally last on the plaza. Chains with brand recognition that tourists/wichita/joco residents go to.

Could be. I've only heard they are switching concepts partly due to their owner killing himself?
Title: Re: Kc restaurant suggestions

they're switching concepts because they have new ownership, not because john grier died.

to clams' point, firehouse was pretty good but my goodness, waaaay too big for them.

how many $5 subs can you sell between 11:00-1:00 each day?  hopefully a lot when your rent runs around $12k/month.
And potbelly crushed them with a better location better price better service but equal product.

I've only done Il Lazzarone's pizza once (their DOCG certified one) and I think I like their restaurant overall better (hours, bar space, patio), but for now, PB is my favorite...seems blue grotto puts too much on their pizzas.

This analogy doesn't work.  The wielder of the tip plays "just the tip" so that more can be introduced later.  That's not what they're doing to your appetite.  Unless you're the tip wielder here, but then you're not paying them for some food in the hopes that later they'll cave and give you a bunch of food.  At least not realistically.  Though maybe that's how "just the tip" operates for you.  Unrealistic expectations routinely unmet, yet you remain undeterred.

When I come over to pak at your place, I find rage inside myself. There's nothing in the parking garage unless it's up top or you have to try to find something on the back streets. If you wanna park quickly at wesport, just park across the street from CharBar and walk. It's pretty easy.

Service kinda sucked, but there was just one bartender and it looked like a lot of regulars were there at the bar. Ms. wacky and I always pick out the two burgers (or items) we want and cut them in half and share them when we try new places. We had the Forty-Ten and the Pappy burger. I tried their Rye beer and it was pretty good. That's what they suggested.

Went to The Rieger last night, I ordered the Foie Gras Mortadella, and they said that it didn't turn out and I had to order the Steak Tartare instead, it was pretty good, a little too pickly for me though.   For my meal, Rabbit Marbella, that was really good. Would recommend!

Blvd Tavern might have the best steak tartare in the city.  Best I've ever had was either Les Halles in NY or Greenhouse Tavern in Cleveland.

No, Rye is the husband and wife from Bluestem. According to Q39's website they are from another husband/wife team "Rob Magee with his wife Kelly"

Husband/wife chefs are the new food trend, who knew?!

To clarify, I'm not generally bothered by eating at restaurants a la Bread. I do think that there is something inherently vulgar about eating, though, and I become acutely aware of the contrast when dining in certain formal settings.  It's why man invented table manners.

I ate at Anton's for the first time last night. The bone marrow app was awesome. Even better was the suggestion by the bartender of taking a whiskey shot out of it.  :drool: 

They were out of the grain fed aged bone-in ribeye so I went with the grass fed one. It had a noticeably different taste which I didn't care for as much. Which leads to the question: What is everyone's opinion on grain fed vs. grass fed beef?

Dinner was followed up by jazz and drinks at the Green Lady Lounge. Pretty great evening overall.

Brobeck's hasn't been around all that long. The Proprietor's first barbecue restaurant was Stilwell Smokehouse at about 194th and Metcalf. After it burned down the first time (lightning c. 2000?) he sold it, and the next iteration was shitty.  I grew up on Doug Brobeck's BBQ about once a week, and graduated HS with his son.

Where is it?

Went to char bar for the first time on Saturday.  (I know I'm behind the times) food was ok. Average BBQ.

The hostess said it was an hour wait, so we got drinks and an app at the bar. Then 5 min later our table was ready, I told the waitress we had an app coming from the bar and she was furious. Like barely served us the rest of the night. Guess she was mad she didn't get it on her ticket? Very odd.

Their service has always been really shitty. I sat at the bar there with Ms. Wacky for our first time and I asked for extra jalapenos or something (not oddly strange) and the bartender smirked and said something under his breath to his coworker. I have no clue what's up with the hipster vibe at char bar, but their food is too average for them to act like that. Sweet patio tho.

I usually don't do online reviews, I'd rather people form their own opinion. Maybe I just had a bad server, I don't think that warrants a negative review for the whole world to see. I wouldn't think posting something in an obscure thread on a ksu message board would be a very public account of my experience. Maybe I'm wrong.

north carolina is essentially pink hog ponds and dried up tobacco fields.  the hog waste has contaminated over 40% of the state and it's getting worse by the year.  the water supply and the aquifer that feeds millions is in worse shape than anything in the central valley of CA.
 
the only salvagable portion of the state (around ashville) has actually discussed secession but the governor has managed to talk them out of it each time it comes up.

imagine the worst, poorest parts of overland park/topeka, and multiply it by 100.  the result is north carolina

Lots of west coast based major regionals are looking to NC and VA to build their east coast facilities. It must be an exciting time in craft beer there.

Western Canada based specialty steel company is opening a plant on the coast in SC to keep up with demand for their steel which is used in brewing vessels and tanks.    So many popping up it's hard to say what's good and what isn't, I've been in the Midwest for most of the last 5 months.  Missed one of the beer festivals this last weekend on the coast that I usually go to, lots of new ones from what I hear.

While dax is lobbing shots at the Kansas City weather today, of course one day is purely anecdotal and a man of his intellect should know that.  Anyway guys I was doing some research, and turns out it actually rains MORE in NC than in KC.

So I guess what I'm saying is, best get KC out ya mouth dax.

Friends is the best sushi in kansas city by a pretty wide margin

Ra and friends is like LCs vs jack stack.

There is a surprisingly good sushi place in Olathe (non-sketchy part, 151st street). It's called NIJI Sushi and the 3 people that run it are very nice. They also put a lot of effort into the presentation which is appreciated.

an acquaintance that i've known for several years owns minsky's (and osteria and eggtc).
the 39th location was a franchise location.  apparently the franchisee was not honoring the contract and the owner wanted him out for a while. 
every time i drove down 39th, i wondered what the guy did.

i went with some friends and didn't choose to go there and it is good food, but i wouldn't pick it just because it's pretty standard stuff.

appetizer - wedge w bleu chz/caesar salad/clam chowder. all looked fine.
entree - steak/chicken/salmon/pork. take your pick. all looked good. i had the 8 oz filet, medium rare, and added a lobster tail for $10. it was good. also comes with green beans and mashed potatoes.
dessert - chocolate flourless cake/creme bruleee. i had the chocolate cake and it was very good.

I am having some regret about my JJ's choice for this week.  The menu doesn't look terribly enticing, but that's restaurant week for you I guess. 


DINNER MENU
Choice of 1 appetizer, 1 entree and 1 dessert

Appetizer
Paco Shrimp (2)
Mushroom Toast

Entrees
Boar Ragu
Chicken Marsala
Fish of the Day

Dessert
Chocolate Mousse

It does kinda suck.  It's just a way to spice up the otherwise hohum post holiday time and drive some sales.  I don't blame them.

I guess the JJ menu isn't that bad.  I haven't had any of those items, even though they are apparently staples at JJ's. 

As for Capital, I suppose I'll do the filet and ask for it MR even though on a busy restaurant week night it's likely to get over cooked.

I would pay $5 specifically to avoid going into a bar with live music.  But that's besides the point.

I guess I can understand it seeming weird if you're not used to it, but if you want to go to a particular bar, paying an extra $5 shouldn't deter you.  It's $5.

i think that's it. usually don't go to Ale House for a special reason, it just happens to be in westport. the amount that i like Ale House is not significantly better enough to be worth paying $5 compared to the other no-cover bars within very short walking distance.

I still want good ribs.

I got a to-go thing of burnt ends after my dinner and snacked on them on the drive.  They were better than the ribs but kind of hard to enjoy them while flying down the highway and eating them like they're chicken mcnuggets.

I don't do ribs often but I hear Joe's kc and Jack stack mentioned as top class. Joe's is closed Sundays and is super busy anymore.

Clams may have Jack stack feedback... I'd go to the downtown locale and eat at the bar.

Did jack stack last fatty fest. Ok.

Spare ribs only though, right?  I know I suck at making spare compared to baby back, but I'm sure they're a lot better than me. 

I suppose it's q39 or Woodward. Or I give up and my leave bbq needs to KC DEEZ's Seattle food truck when I get home.

Succotash has them regularly (or is it "you say tomato" , I always confuse them)

Grunauer is more Austrian than German, IMO.  And they both have some great food.  But I've never known spaetzle to be in a brunch menu.

Affare... Blowing minds since 2013

yeah, and it's still a soft opening so the service/wait staff is pretty lol.  probably just buy a bunch of chicken next time and get it to go, no sides.  I didn't think it was overly spicy (I love spice) but you could definitely tell it was there, and it gave the chix a great flav.  I don't eat a lot of fried chicken, so don't really have any other good fried chicken to compare it to, but it was definitely the best I've had.

it delivered. they marinate the shank for 7 days, then cook for 24 hours. the skin is hardened completely, and the inside is piping hot with lots of flavor. the cabbage was surprisingly sweet. not enough mashed taters relative to the amount of meat. the dessert was like thick blueberry pancakes. i may not be hungry again until march. overall a great experience.

We've had this debate for years with two of my friends. Ms. Wacky has a little ass dog and likes to take him places with a patio for weekend drinks/lunch. I'm not a huge fan of it, but whatever. My two friends however despise it. We used to go to mccoys a lot on Saturdays and they'd get so pissed seeing big ass dogs around everyone's food. I get both sides. I tell Ms. Wacky to leave her dog at home tho most of the time, because he holds everything up and i'm not a patient person. I do like seeing adorable dogs out tho.

Justus Drugstore was really good. Had the farmers platter to start. Bone Marrow is overrated but not bad, just kinda whatever. Sausage, bacon, and the cheeses were great. Rabbit was ok. Had the pork chop and it was superb. So tender and juicy. Vegetable medly was tasty and very fresh. Lady friend had the risotto, which was great and would have liked it as a side dish. It was good for a special occasion.

Dinner was slightly ruined by the guy behind my table that was ranting about Obama and said "he was an absent one term senator that was off smoking crack the whole time"

i could write a book. due to the nature of the reception venue, we would prefer to not do a standard buffet, so we're looking at doing small plates/stations. we wanted to do grinders but they don't do full catering service which our reception venue requires, so now we're looking at taco republic.

Justus drugstore pro tip.  When they open their patio for the summer (probably pretty soon, if not already) go there and get the best burger you've ever had.  It's $10.50 + toppings.

At Jacobson right now. Average food. Bottomless mimosas, belinis, and bloodys for $15 tho. Plus that patio! :love:
Jacobson is in my bottom 5 kc restaurants. Way over priced. Not good.

It's pretty gross but it's actually gotten better.  Mixing in the green helps too.  Ponaks is good for 3 things:

- Margs
- Guac
- Chicken Tinga 'rito

(Sonora tacos, burrito Deshebrada aren't bad either)

gates fries are a steak fry cut versus jackstack's regular cut, duh.
gates fries are better than jackstack's but you have to ask them to cook them "crispy"
slaps fries are batter dipped and better than jackstacks


jackstack doesn't make mac & cheese, q39 wins that category
jackstack doesn't make hushpuppies, slaps wins that category

joe's kc has the best onion rings in town, those things jackstack serves are an abomination

gates uses wonder bread, jackstack uses roma.  for bbq, i prefer wonder.  gates wins that category but not really a side.

in summary, jackstack has the best beans and cheesy corn and potato salad (increds)

only a fool would eat cole slaw so don't go there girlfriend

Who has the best burnt ends in the city? I had OK Joe's a couple of weeks ago and they were fantastic but they weren't really burnt ends so much as they were fatty pieces of brisket. I think AB's might be my favorite I've had.  :surprised: :dunno:

Had taco republic and gus's last week AND Q39 so far this week!

At Gus's had a breast, wing, and a tender, side of mac.  Mac is probably best side I've had (not saying much at all).  Tender was a lot easier to eat when you're dressed up for work and crap, but the tender isn't as spicy because they don't dip it in hot sauce like they do for the breast/wing/dark meat.

Really? That's what I got too, haven't been back since. Beer Kitchen is still the best burger I've had in KC.

Best burger places I've experienced:

Beer Kitchen
BRGR (Those fries too  :love:)
It won't make it, but I really like Dempsey's fire burger
Ale House (thin paddy's, but they make that jalapeno cream chz with it.)
Farmhouse (Breakfast burger. Bacon cream chz sauce)

yeah i  do remember that ad campaign.  believe it or not there was a decent sized beef patty in there, i would guess they run about a 1/3rd pound each.  it wasn't a bad burger.

Title: Re: Kc restaurant suggestions
Post by: pissclams on June 01, 2016, 03:39:59 PM
That looks pretty good, pissclams.

well, it was a 7.0 and a 4.1, i'm sure you've had your share of 7.0/4.1's so you know exactly how it was


this burger had arugula on it which i just wasn't in the mood to eat so it got the boot, didn't trust the pickle so i didn't eat that.
the sauce was a dijon vinaigrette which i wish it had more of it on the burger but most got stuck on the arugula.

i usually keep the lettuce and onion (only some) and boot the pickles/tomato/other ancillary crap these clown chefs try to get creative with

the fries were pretty good, upon reconsideration, i'm bumping them to a 4.3
the homemade ketchup was garbage, they could learn a lot from houston's ketchup recipe

tomorrow, as BURGERMANIA pushes on, it looks to be a coin flip between howard's or green room, probably howard's (never been/looks great)

We had a good time! They have a deal on burgs so we each got a burg. Mine was the New Mexico one with guac, pico, jalepeno, pepper jack etc. I got Sweet 'tate fries as my side. They bring you house chips as an app. Also I went there for brunch once and enjoyed it.

(http://s33.postimg.org/cak52gzxr/IMG_0671.jpg)

yup, that's mayo.  what a great burger that the original tom turned out to be.  best patty i've had yet this week, the butter and worcestershire really take it over the top.  and the bun was good too.  not enough cheese and the bacon was chewy and not crispy.


burger (1-10): 8.6, great burger, caramelized the proteins on the grill just like it's supposed to be.  they didn't ask how l liked it cooked, i appreciate the bravado of not pretending to care how i want it cooked like a lot of places and then bringing it out however they want.  these guys didn't ask and didn't care. 
 
fries (1-5): 3.0, just your typical bar/pub french fry nothing special but they were served warm so they get a small fist bump for that.

Burger was pretty ok, pretty standard. Went with a friend, and food came out at different times, so that's gonna hurt the overall rating. Wilty lettuce, thin 'mato. I'd give it a 5.6/10

Fries: ordered the fries for extra, shouldn't have. Very meh. Seemed like standard frozen crinkle fries you'd buy from Costco. Not very warm. 2.1/5

Overall a sort of disappointing experience. I feel this way everytime I go to Grinder's. I still go back though.

when i go to grinders, i don't expect much beyond a good philly.  the last two times i went, the service was good.  but ya the fries are just frozen Cisco crap.  their pizza is pretty good in-house, doesn't survive the drive home though.

you're right, those aren't burnt ends.  when they're out of burnt ends, the just put brisket on it.  the grind of the beef is out of control.  the bun is meh but i guess great?   :confused:

burger (1-10): 10 it's really just incredible
fries (1-5): 2.85, although their chipotle (katkid) ketchup is so rediculously great

Rick Daris burger mania day 1- the green room.

Burger- 8/10
Tots- 2.5/5

They apparently pepper the heck out of their burgers which knock knock who's there a guy who loves pepper. This makes them score high on this burger lovers chart. Tots were avg to slightly below avg tots. Step up your tot game, the green room says this burger mania challenger. Props for the free pop a shot game on the patio.

The Z Man seems like it should be horrible and an insult to the world of bbq. Onion rings and cheese just dont belong anywhere near brisket amirite?  I think this was the look on my face when someone first described it to me:  :sdeek:

But you know what happened when I decided to actually try one, it was pretty goddam tasty. That being said it's definitely not the only thing I ever get.

I had a BM jazzoo pleasant surprise. Stopped at the BRGR booth as they weren't busy. I'm not a fan of BRGR but if they would sell the burger they were giving away last night I would be a huge fan. Great burger. Cheese, onion, mustard pickle. Glorious. I wish i would have snapped a pic but I wasn't expecting much so didn't think of it. Easily a 7.9

the entree was fine and it's a cool set up they've got there at prairie fire, particularly in nice weather.

Rickdaris Burgermania update #2

The beer kitchen- this little out of the way place tucked in an unknown downtown kc neighborhood is a hidden gem. I ate there and will share with you guys...

Burger- the smokestack. This is a burger with burnt ends and other stuff on it. It was good. 8.5/10.
Fries- I also got the smokestack fries. Same thing but with too much of some kind of bourbon bbq sauce. Not so good. 2.5/5.

Feel free to ask me questions about this place if anybody wants to know something about it.

not sure. i can't substantiate the rumor yet but have heard it from two different sources.  i know they lost a +$1M arbitration last week brought on by buca di beppo (houston's had been dripping sink sewage into buca's restaurant for years without taking care of it for some dumbassage reason).  this would be taken care of by their insurer and i can't believe would be the reason for them to close, hillstone is a weird company though.

by far my favorite restaurant in the 64112

i like crinkle cuts but guys let's be honest here, these are a thin crinkle versus a true crinkle

the sauce was fine, nothing special.   i switched to gates halfway through my meal.  i really like that bread though.  the menu is kind of weird in that there's only 4 things you can order and they're all combo meals.  the girl did let me order a combo and take the drink off of it so i didn't get charged for water. 

they charge you for extra sauce which is dumb, i think it was $.35 for the one ounce cup.

Best lunch option in the Plaza before heading to Doubleshift on Sat 8/20? Go!

i've been eating at the oliver and gram & dun a lot lately, both are delish.  if you're looking for a good chain, hit westport, as m2 suggesto'd- raising canes, pie five, qdoba, picklemans, which wich, sonic, freebirds, the options are endless but try not to get stabbed or shot

Brown & Loe

Building / Design / Atmosphere - Very cool.  Redone old bank very well redone.  High ceilings, good noise level. Bathrooms in the basement bonus points.  super long bar looked like a great place to be. (10/10)

Hours - 7am - 10pm (8pm on Sunday).  Looks like they serve coffee in the AM, not sure what else...no mention of brunch yet. Hoping they catch on and stay open later to take advantage of the long bar.  (8/10)

Drink selection - pretty good tap selection (7'ish Blvds, 10 others) and solid wines by the glass....didn't get a full drink menu to see the full selection.  Cheap prices overall (7/10)

Food - Pierogi appetizer...fried....not anybody's fave.  I had the cheeseburger with fried egg and fries, figured second day open this was something they would be able to do well right away if they knew what they were doing.  Asked for how I wanted it cooked which is a good sign.  Burger was excellent...fries were kind of like Antons and flimsy like Antons...not a fan.  Others had the trout with a creamed corn...it was reported to be v. good.  Spinach dumplings came out less than ideal temperature and overall got a solid "meh".  I was thinking they would be more like asian dumplings but I guess they were some sort of white person dumpling ball thing....looking around at other plates the short ribs and steak looked good.  Food prices seemed cheap. (7/10)

Overall - excited for this place and see it grow, add brunch and specials using the market out their front door.

Big bams burgers, downtown Shawnee

(http://i.imgur.com/p65wIQD.jpg)

Double all American burger.

Taste 7/7
Presentation 7/7
Ambience 7/7 (90's rock music)
Fries 4/7 (could be slightly crisper)

This is an excellent burger, very reminiscent of the Vista burger but larger patties. I got a double but it was way too much. They should include a second slice of cheese on the double too  :th_twocents:

Olathe has an indian restaurant in a sketchy place.  want to try it but scared to death.

Best indian food I've found in KC is Ruchi in Overland Park.  Excellent food, nice location very clean place


So apparently this place has the best Indian food in joco.  Confirmed by actual Indian people I talked to.  Will report tomorrow or Friday

Zero stars - rating wouldn't go thru

Don't even waste your time! We went there because of the good reviews and we were extremely disappointed! Our food took forever 25 minutes to get the side of sweet potatoes were wilted and cold.., second order even worse! Had asked for more water had asked for the check had asked for the check to be picked up again virtually. Horrible service. No meat & a bunch of bread and a bunch of bad fillers, what little meat was grissle and pure fat chunks. Grossly overpriced, this is not NYC.., NEVER going back! Go to Gates instead!

So just a fun story from this weekend. At a bar and 3 of us order drinks. Waitress brings my friend a huge glass of coke and he's like wait, I ordered a crown and coke and the girl is like sorry and then comes back with the three correct orders. We have a few more rounds and get the tab and she charged him for the regular coke too. I was about a 5 and never laughed so hard in my life.  :)

For #Burgermania fanatics!

http://www.kansascity.com/living/liv-columns-blogs/chow-town/article97542417.html

Five essential gourmet burgers in the Kansas City area

Quote
House Burger at Anton’s, 1610 Main St.: Expectations are high at a steakhouse that butchers its own natural, grass-fed beef. The House Burger ($13) at Anton’s delivers, keeping toppings and condiments to a minimum to let the rich flavor of the fresh ground beef shine. It comes with melted sharp cheddar oozing off the patty, which was topped with smoky bacon, Dijon mustard and pickled red onions. I added a smear of the decadent locally made ketchup that came with the fries ($4).

The Jacobson burger at the Jacobson, 2050 Central. This terrific Crossroads watering hole known for its big deck has consistently creative, well-executed appetizers and sandwiches. The urban-chic joint’s signature burger is topped with short rib marmelade, bone marrow butter and onion straws. Now, anything that contains bone marrow butter, all I’ve got to say is, hell yeah. With the short rib marmalade, The Jacobson ($14.95) skates right up to the line of gourmet concepts gone wrong without crossing it, deftly layering several comforting tastes. A hands-down winner in the fancy-not-precious category.

Hank Burger at Hank Charcuterie, 1900 Massachussetts St., Lawrence. Hank opened as an artisanal butcher shop, but demand for the scarce tables at lunch and dinner was so stiff that the sausage cases have been pulled out to expand the dining room. The Hank Burger ($11) is clearly an homage to the Big Mac: two all-beef patties, “comeback” sauce, Alma cheddar, bread & butter pickles, caramelized onions and housemade bacon on a Farm to Market brioche. Tops in the marquee bacon-cheeseburger category.

Bleu Burger at Dempsey’s Burger Pub, 4120 Pennsylvania. The Westport outpost of the game-changing Lawrence gourmet burger purveyor executes at the same high level as the original. Housemade ketchups and condiments accent thick patties of high-quality beef, including a couple of selections made with ground kobe. The Bleu Burger ($9.50) is a rhapsody in mellow textures and flavors with tender beef cooked to the desired doneness, a slab of Maytag bleu cheese, pleasantly chewy bacon and carmelized onion confiture.

And, of course, whenever you are at Dempsey’s, you gladly fork out $4 for the duck fat fries, because: heaven.

New BRGR at BRGR, 4038 W. 83rd St., Prairie Village. This spacious gastro-pub in Corinth Square is like a neighborhood sports bar, but with better food. The New BRGR ($10) had me at “...on a salt-and-pepper bun” — wait, what? Yes, please. A ridiculously glossy golden bun flecked with visible, tasteable, course grains of salt and pepper proved a delicious wrapper for four-ounce beef patties, pepper bacon, Wisconsin cheddar, bread and butter pickles and Russian dressing. Everything on the sandwich works, a clear winner in the “basic, upscaled” category.

And, of course, whenever you are at BRGR, you gladly fork out $5 for the sweet potato tots, because: heaven.

I had Q39 this weekend for the first time before going to the Royals' game. It was fantastic. I got the platter with brisket, ribs, and beans. My friend had the No Jackin' Around. We both were quite pleased with our meals.

I'm also 2 for 2 this year on Royals' victories for games I've attended.  :gocho:

that hamburger list is wrong as any BURGERMANIA participant can attest to.  i had Max's yesterday again (2nd time in two weeks), it's really good.

i need to do BURGERMANIA II soon, maybe next week.  there's a few places i want to try that didn't make the BURGERMANIA I event cut.

yeah, artisan is a bad word (ask puni) and so is "decadent" as she used it to describe ketchup from anton's.

Agreed...the anton's burger is the only entry I kind of agree with...it's good.BRGR is not good...their meat has no flavor.

Probably should ask them to do it. First time, so I totally get it. Mrs. Wacky hates it when the bacon isn't crispy, so no matter where we go now, we ask them if they can make sure the bacon is crispy. I guess just ask them next time if they toast their buns and then  :fatty: ;) at them.

KC Smokehouse Pub

K-State Burger - 1 patty, brisket slices, provolone, on texas toast

burger - 0/7  literally the least flavorful thing i've ever eaten in my entire life.  mother of god this thing was terrible.  2 bites and in the trash
fries - 3/7 a little soggy, but i'm willing to blame that on the car ride.  seasoned and tasty, just need to get crispier
baked beans - 6/7 pretty damn good little number here.  has a bit of spice to it
original bbq sauce - 5/7 not bad at all, standard kc bbq sauce
spicy bbq sauce - 6/7 very good, but not all that spicy
ambience - 5/7 pretty new, wasn't a shithole

My work cafeteria

Burger- 1/7. I mean I guess I've had worse but these are pretty garbagey. They keep them in like hot oil water and then throw them in the grill for a minute to warm them up a bit.

Fries- 2/7, I dump a ton of cholula sauce on them.

Total cost- $2.40.

Verdict- sometimes they are out of chicken strips and you just don't feel like a salad. Solid once a month option.

i would never in my life ask a restaurant to do something that they don't offer on the menu

you would never ask the chef to put sausage gravy on your chicken fried steak? never?

i would never have chicken fried steak and even if i did i would not want sausage gravy on it and even if i did i would not have to ask for it because i'm sure disgusting chicken fried steak comes with disgusting sausage gravy on it

This whole debate started over farmhouse denying my lovely wives request of scrambled eggs on her breakfast sandwich vs over easy. We've made peace with this. We even ate at farmhouse one last time to show our support for their amazing hungover food magic throughout the years.

at Novel, on the prix fixe menu, i asked the waiter if i could do the flourless chocolate cake for dessert rather than the lime cake thing. i felt horrible asking but i had the flourless chocolate cake before and really really wanted it. it was probably the first time in my life the want outweighed the shame of asking them to change something.

Maybe I was wrong in my example because sausage gravy is on the menu. The menu contains all acceptable raw materials with which to craft new dishes.

Some of these fancy places change their menu all the time, for the time of year, ingredients, whatever it may be. I was sad farmhouse didn't have their amazing breakfast sandwich last time I went in, but I didn't ask them what was going on. Sometimes I'll ask why the change, just because i'm curious how some restaurants work, after being in the biz for so long.

Of course it's acceptable that's where all the new foods come from that get named after the person that ordered it.

I think the egg situ is a bit of a pickle... On one hand I agree that scrambled would be the proper way to serve an egg on a bsand but I personally would never ask to sub that.

Rule of thumb: subtractions and reasonable additions are OK,  substitutions are kinda dicky

well in that case Farmhouse should have a Wacky waving arm flailing inflatable scrambled egg sandwich.


and then when you go there and order it you can create the Wacky waving arm flailing inflatable tube meat sandwich

very, very OT here... but when cocobolos opened I lived a block away and went there a bunch. they had a nice quaint little dish called pete's evil desert chicken. it was magical and I'd order the crap out of it. then I moved out of manhattan.

one day and came back and they still had the dish, but it was complete dog crap and had rice instead of potatoes and other crap changes. I said bs and ordered it the old way which they made for me. I then continued to go off menu ordering the old evil chicken for years until guess what? they brought the old one back. you're welcome, mhk.

Overpriced. I do like the cream cheese on a burger concept.

You son of a bitch! Yes, it's very average.

That smokehouse place next to jimmy johns on wornall is the worst food I've ever tasted in my life.
This is a complete lie. #Badtastebuds They actually surprised me. I was expecting it to be shitty, but it's a crap ton of food, for a good price and their sauce isn't actually that bad.

I honestly don't have a favorite place to eat at in Waldo yet. I was underwhelmed by the hype that was Governor stumpys, but I think it was just a bad experience, because we sat outside and some construction guys were  :lol: pretty loud and smoking a crap ton of heaters in my face.

We go to district a lot for brunch, I mean, it suffices I guess.

Louies wine dive is alright

The well is average.

Tanners is my go to for bar food.

Lews mac is the best thing they have. I somehow spent $70 there Saturday night after the game.

Pizza Locale is average, but I like their wine concept.

Every time we wanna try Summit, it's freaking packed and a 45 minute wait, so hopefully the new space changes that.

I hear that wing place down the road is amazing, but their rough ridin' hours suck ass.

Brewery emperial...

Atmosphere 6/7 - great space, open fire kitchen, can't wait for the patio

Drinks 3.5/7 - beers are easy drinking but none of them excited me. Bonus points for having full bar so will be a good choice to take friends when they aren't beer drinkers

Food 5/7 - only had the fried pickles which were homemade pickles....That hadn't been pickles enough. More like fried cucumbers . Rest of the menu looked good and reasonably priced...

Holy hell, I went to Avenues Bistro yesterday for the first time, and it was a crazy experience. I honestly felt so bad for the staff. Whoever the manager was putting together the staff schedule for 12/26 is a dumbass. There was one server for the front (my guy), 1 for the back, which there was a huge party, and 1 bartender (who was super stoned and lazy AF). There was also no hostess. Anyways, my guy was sweating his ass off because he was running like 12 tables and doing everything. The waitress in the back was seen in the backroom crying, because that huge party was filled with a crap ton Johnson County Bitches. Like, this girl (typical blonde with her face pulled back) came up to the bar to bitch about the service like a million times and made a scene. They ended up just taking everything off of her ticket.

I felt bad, so I tipped something like 35-40% and wrote the guy a note, to let him know how well he did for the situation and it wasn't his fault they were understaffed. I use to really like those notes and over tips when ppl could see I was having a bad day. Also, it was so awkward to watch ppl walk in the doors and then wait to be seated, trying to be patient, but wondering when the eff someone would come up to them. I started telling ppl just to seat themselves and they'll get to you as soon as they can.  :lol: Holy nightmare!

Just got back from a nice little evening out on the beautiful country club plaza, punctuated by a pretty good dinner at Chaz on the Plaza.

I'd say the food was a notch above typical boutique hotel food. On Tuesdays they have a price fixe menu that includes two apps, two entrees, a dessert, and a bottle of wine for $90. Pretty good deal IMO.

Anyways, I'd give it a 5.25/7. Would go back.

Gave up on classic cookie about a year ago. Had been there 4 or 5 times. Always took 30-40 min to get food, which is absurd for breakfast. Like the spot, just not enough to wait that long for some scrambled eggs.

Lunched at Louis wine dive

Which reminds me, right around the corner is The Classic Cookie. Very small space to eat inside, but we have carried out their breakfast a couple times. It's money.

Gave up on classic cookie about a year ago. Had been there 4 or 5 times. Always took 30-40 min to get food, which is absurd for breakfast. Like the spot, just not enough to wait that long for some scrambled eggs.
Hmm. Have only carried out. So wait wasn't an issue. What's your primary Sunday brunch?

Summit is a pretty standard brunch. Bottomless mimosas. Honestly don't go out much for brunch/bfast. Most of it I can make better at home.

hmm, I have been going there for years and it is always relatively quick but we almost always order muffins or cookies as an app.  The Potato and Sausage casserole is worth almost any amount of waiting

tomorrow, as BURGERMANIA pushes on, it looks to be a coin flip between howard's or green room, probably howard's (never been/looks great)

tried howards today..  very um dunno, i felt like the lumineers were sitting all around me.
they serve a double which consists of two small patties.  not enough.  the fries were pretty good, i'd give them a 3.5.
the hamburger would have been pretty good (think ~7.5-8 range) but they use this homemade cheese that is rough ridin' disgusting so i have to give the burger a 4.5.  i'll go back and get it w/o the barf cheese and try it again next week maybe.  maybe the decemberists will be there this time.

I don't have much of an issue paying $225+ for a good dinner, but it needs to be a dinner that really sticks out as fantastic. I probably could have gone to any decent spot around the city and had the same meal for half the price. FWIW I think cap grille is over priced too.

ya, but: $225- 20% tip = $180 - $50 PAK Juice = $130 / 2 = $65 each.  at an a la carte steakhouse, that's a low figure per head and that's before 9% sales tax

it looks like stock hill's steaks run roughly $55 on average, sides are $10 per, a $15 app and a $10 salad (both split) along with a $13 dessert and you're easily there or beyond

I wore the same black/white checkered shirt as the wait staff, so that was embarrassing.  It was good though and we had a good time, thanks for the tips folks.

#BURGERMANIA continues into 2017!

Friday, February 24th, appox. 4pm
Jim's Diner - 6901 Prospect Ave., Kansas City, MO

Burger - 7/7 this is a damn tasty burg.  I got a double and didn't know what i was in for, this thing is massive and i could barely finish it but it's like i always say, no pain no gain when it comes to maintaining my dietary goals

fries - 5/7 pretty standard crinks, crispy and fresh, but nothing special.

ambience - 3.5/7 well this place is pretty small, and only has one table so it's essentially carryout only.  it was pretty dimly lit at the start but someone came in and turned on the lights after a while and the woman at the counter started yelling at them.  TV was on espn so i just watched that while i waited.

Mrs. Wacky and I walked to Bier Station for the first time today. Cool concept. We enjoyed our time, but I don't understand this serve yourself trend of micro breweries. Don't get mad at me KCFD, but I'd much rather sit and get served vs walking in and having the staff stare at me until I head up to the bar. It's strange to me, but I can adjust.

At Double shift and Bier Station at least 5-10 minutes. More awkward at BS, because we were the only customers in the joint to start with. Bier Company does it too. I guess it makes sense, just need someone to guide me, when I enter these joints for the first time.

Every single brewery in town does it this way. Keeps my costs down, which keeps beer costs down. If I had to have servers that serviced tables I'd probably have to double my staff.

Also there are huge signs in my place (and bier station) that explain the order at the bar concept.

the idea that bars have servers or when going out, most would prefer to be served by someone paid to host and wait on them isn't a foreign one except to phil and mocat.  it's called relaxing.  not getting up from your conversation with friends or from the game you are focused on so you can slug your way through a busy place and refill your beer is a reward to a hard week.  also, not a new concept.  but hey, to each their own.  if you can be suckered into fattening a bar owner's margins by waiting on yourself, then go for it.
Title: Re: Kc restaurant suggestions
Post by: Phil Titola on March 06, 2017, 07:41:55 AM
Agreed wait staff is also not a new concept. Now that it's been confirmed, make your choice: if you need someone to wait on you, don't go to bier station or the local breweries. Whew

Title: Re: Kc restaurant suggestions

I wasn't fully aware of the concept of bier station going into it tho and neither were the 50 something year old couple that walked in after us. That's kinda the point. Like you look on their website and they have $12-15 entrees that look tasty and a good list of beers. I just assume it will be like any other restaurant/bar place. I totally understand the cost thing. That was a good point KCDFcat. However, starring at your brand new customers walking in through the door and not saying anything until they come up to you and your hipster beard/mustache duo is a weird stance to take. The old people look confused and haven't left their seat since they got there. Maybe help them out a bit.

i would guess, all in after taxes, somewhere around $4.50.  tipped employees minimum wage is $3.85.  add 7% social security, 7% unemployment, 2% medicare


the real wackadoodle about servers is that if you can't afford them, then you don't need them

KC bier is like that?  I don't remember that at all.

Isn't the margin on beer ridicidonk?
Bier Co just added full wait staff.

If you look at just cost of goods, then yes the margin on beer is high if you're able to sell it from your own bar, like I do. But, the cost to make beer is way more than the grain/hops/yeast that goes into it. Keg costs are sky rocketing, employment costs are high for us since we use the same amount of labor to make 5 barrels as a larger brewery would to make 50.

If you include the fact that brewing equipment is insanely expensive, and most breweries finance it, that adds to operating costs as well.

I know every business has these same or similar operating costs, but as a brewery, to get a high margin on our product we have one option to sell, which is over our bar. When we move to distribution we'll make less than 30% on a keg compared to what we sell it for at the brewery.

Disclaimer: I am in no way complaining or saying my life is hard. It's not. We're doing very well. I also have absolutely 0 plans to add full wait staff at any point, I somewhat get the complaint, but brewery taprooms are not full service bars, nor should they be expected to be so.

Sounds like you're not so much upset about the concept, but about the service they gave you. I agree, if a bartender sees that a patron isn't quite getting it they should drop them a hint.

I've always instructed my employees to do so, I can't guarantee it happens every time. But, that's the nature of the customer service business

#BURGERMANIA Big 12 tournament edition

Howard's - 1708 Oak St.

Burger - 5.75/7 - I prefer a thinner burg patty but the meat itself was v good and overcame the fat patty.  The bun was delish.  They did add some different toppings like pickled vegs which I enjoyed but traditionalists may turn their nose.

Fries - 5.2/7 - Kind of skimped on fries but overall a solid fry.  Nothing extraordinary.  Served with boysgrow ketchup.

I'm on a #BURGERMANIA run fellas.

Today...Cafe Europa in Union Hill

Burger - 4.99/7 - 3 ounce patties so ordered a double.  Meat was tasty and cooked well but almost too much cheese made it kind of an overly greasy burg.  Bun was average. Came with special sauce which was prob just 1000 island and pretty meh.

Fries - 3.68/7 - looked fine, but just not cooked long enough. Pretty uneventful, left most of them on the plate.

Condiments - 6/7 - dining partner got some sort of Mexican type brunch meal which came with Verde salsa which was awesome on the fries.

I had been to Grinder's about a million times but, up until last night, hadn't ventured beyond their phillies or 'za. Last night I decided to order their Cali BLT featuring incredible bacon, perfect tomato, lettuce, and some sort of chipotle aoli. The bread was a perfectly toasted wheatberry. This sandwich is the real deal, you guys. The tots, as always, were great...but the sandwich (and beers) stole the show. 6.5/7 would order again / recommend.

EDIT: I left out the "cali" part...the perfect amount of ripe 'cado.

BURGERMANIA Saturday am edition.

Town topic (the 2nd one on Baltimore)

Burger...double cheese with grilled onions and pickles...5.2/7 ...this is the TT not open 24 hours and feels like the B chef. Good flavor just little too cooked and almost burned the edges. I've had better here.

Tots ....4.9/7...good crispiness ..their fried items have a different flavor. This is pretty standard but I've never been able to place what the flavor is.

Prob the lowest ratings I'd ever give TT but also the soberest and least hung over I've ever been and ate there so that could be a factor.

There are essentially 5 types of restaurants in KC where you can get good food:
1. American/fine dining - steak houses (don't really have strong feelings on this, would be intetested what others thinl. Bristol, Schmicks, J. Alexanders for the prime rib. Never impressed with Hereford House, Fentons, Bentons, etc.)
2. BBQ - so much good
3. Italian - Casciones, Lydias, Carmens
4. Foodie Places - KC kind of struggles with these except burger joints (District? 71st and Wornall is good)
5. Dive Bar - peanut wings, etc
6. Ethnic Food - graveyard for KC

Pile on.

Not really aware of any great mexican places tho. People love mannys, mi ranchito and ponaks, and I don't get it.


It should be noted that I would nevet go to anywhere in missouri to eat that isn't west of holmes, north of 75th and south of the river, except briarcliff

4. is pretty great.  In crossroads alone you have a lot of James Beard nominees and places like Rieger, Michael Smiths, Extra Virgin, Corvino, Novel, Affare, .  The "gourmet" burger joints here are kind of overrated.

6.  Yeah there are some pockets of great Mexican and Vietnamese but other than that...pretty lacking.  Pretty comparable to other 2million person midwestern cities though?

I feel like Pryde's might be on the list.
Pryde's is awesome and staffed by the nicest middle aged and over ladies you could ever hope to help you find a gift for you wife or mom so other than being in authentic building I don't know how it is hipster

Its a decent place and all, but it was maybe the least hipster food place in a 2 mile radius. I mean, its basically TGI Friday's with a nice rooftop for nice days.

Haven't done tasting room but I enjoyed the plates we had. It doesn't feel as refined menu wise as blue stem but I feel that's on purpose and the tasting room is probably more like bluestem... The main place is more approachable. The space itself and the live music contribute to that too.

I can't wait to go try the late night cheeseburger.

Have you been to Justus?   It's been on my radar for years but due to location we've never made it.

Trying to decide between

bluestem
novel
eddie vs
rieger
justus
corvino (not the tasting room, it's booked)

the only one we've both been to is bluestem.   Thought about adding Julian since she's closing, but I just hear too many mediocre opinions.

Their cocktail menu was called "cat-tails" and the server was like "Also we have a cat-tail menu".

It felt like what I would imagine a restaurant inside Oceans of Fun might be like.

I didn't realize the wannabe who's-who of KC elites would get so much in a uproar about calling out what we saw in our first experience.

What did you have?

Mrs. CF3 and I split the 2 for $22 deal. You get an app and 2 entrees from a list of choices.
APP: Texas Cheese Fries. These were ok but kinda soggy
MAIN COURSE: Mrs CF3 had the Quesadilla and I had Chicken Fajitas. I wanted steak but that's not included on the 2 for $22 menu. They were good and and the onions were cooked nicely, however I thought they skimped on guac and s cream.
KIDS MENU:Kid A got cheese pizza with corn on the cob as a side, Kid 2 got Grilled chee with mashed 'tates as a side. Kid 2 stated the mashed tates were good but Nana makes the best mashed tates (I agree wholeheartedly).
DESSERT:We split a molten lava chocolate cake sundae thing for the table. Heavenly my friends.

All in all a great dinner.

Also (we were in Merriam) we saw some old lady that Mrs CF3 knew from church a bunch of years ago at the next table. She said she was on her way to "that Israel movie" and gestured in the direction of the Cinemark across the parking lot. I have no idea what movie she meant.

Oh and there was a guy 1 table away wearing JNCO jeans and wrap around shades inside the restaurant. He seemed cool because he told one of the lil CF3's to "get him" (him being me) when he was going in for a kill shot in tic tac to. I wondered if he liked ICP and thought skin ben would be able to tell just by looking at him but I couldn't tell.

That BK blows. I always think it closed down, because there's nobody there. Picklemans: I got the buffalo chicken sandwich. It wasn't bad, it was just very slow service. They were rude to Mrs. wacky somehow on her first visit there, so it will be hard to overcome that.

OMG do you guys ever drive by that Waldo bar? It's so depressing. There's never anyone in there.

That Waldo page is a great follow when they're talking trash on Sonic and Taco Bell all the time.

I don't think I've ever typed out the word yamaka before and that's what I found when I googled it, so I think i'll just stick with it this way, because i'm already in far too deep and the other spelling for it is stupid.

We're you upstairs or downstairs? At night for dinner they have a piano player downstairs and it's super cool. You get an old school vibe that I dig. Also, you can be part of this elite club (pendergast) and have drinks upstairs. My friend was a part of it and they can take guests upstairs. Sly, police chief, etc. hang up there. There's poker games and all kinds of cool crap to do up there.

Your face does, cf3! They were known for their dairy anyways back in the mobster days. They limped into BBQ and they're winning awards on their hobby business. They're like the K-State bball of BBQ. They don't even try and they're Americas team still cause they're facepalming the competition.

The last time I had Zarda (a few years ago) I had the burnt ends sandwich and it was terrible. The article explains that they promoted the hell out of this contest to their customers both in store and on social media. Jack Stack probably didn't even remotely care; Zagat's rating likely means a little more to them.

From the article
Quote
Zarda used to serve saucy burnt ends, but the Limited Reserve burnt ends are coated in a sweet and spicy dry rub and served sans sauce. The beef nuggets are made the traditional way from the point end of the brisket. They're smoked until tender and charred, with smoky black bark around the edges.

anybody ate at Tribe yet?  I stopped in for booze drinks last night and was more excited for the place than I was first hearing it...but didn't try any food.

Have a late night happy hour starting at 10 with some good deals.

Tribe has only normal tables/booths, so it's safe for old people. food pretty good but you have to order like 3 things bc the plates are so small. i might go back later in the year when the patio is open, to grab a beer & ceviche
I had pork and chicken skewers and a cucumber salad iirc

Had Jack Stack today. Ordered the Jack's Best. The burnt ends and baby back ribs were underwhelming but the crown prime beef rib was fantastic. Sides (cheesy corn and baked beans) were good. My buddy let me try one of his lamb ribs and it was delicious.

Didn't seem like they cared too much.

And there was a really bad odor of a wet mop throughout the restaurant.  No wonder they have Glade candles burning. 
Not very good.

Seriously tho, Mikey. Every time I've been there, the service has been atrocious.

Restaurant review for most everywhere I ate/drank during my trip to KC. Been to most of these places but a few new ones.

1. Grinders
Sunday afternoon, slice of pepperoni & garlic pizza and a Grinders Lager(?).  Good flavors on the slice, floppy and foldable. Just how I remembered.  Beer was refreshing on a warm day in front of the hot pizza oven. 5.5/7

2. Double Shift
Sunday afternoon, couple of beers and a growler of the lager. The IPAs currently on tap are too aggressively hoppy and citrusy for my taste, but seem to be of a style people like. Lager was good, dunkel was good. Great atmosphere. Been there twice now and haven’t run into KCFDCat. 5/7.

3. The Brick
Monday Night, patty melt, a half dozen pale ales and some rye whiskey. Rural Grit Happy Hour is always a great time.  6.66/7

4. Arthur Bryant’s
Tuesday lunch: Brisket sandwich and fries.  While Bryant’s is wildly inconsistent anymore, when it is good it is great. Brisket on a good day is the best in the city, and this was a good day. Early in the week at lunch seems to be a more consistently good time than weekends there for me over the last ten years.  Got ribs to go which were also pretty solid.
7/7

5. Johnny’s (119th Street)
Tuesday afternoon. Met a buddy for beers and the soccer game. Don’t remember who played at the moment, but it was the game that got tied up in stoppage time so they played another half hour before the team who tied it lost on penalties. Great fun. Solid suburban sports bar. 4/7

6. Some of what we ate on the 4th, 7/7.
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180708/4278083ea3bd754901cf5825c9e33d4e.jpg)

6. Failed attempts to go to El Pollo Rey, Tacos on Wheels and Tacos El Tio with 8mandad because apparently all the Mexican restaurants in KCK were on vacation this week. 0/7.

Gave up and went to:
7. Stockyards Brewing (new to me)
Pretty good beer. Scottish ale and pale ales we're good. Neat atmosphere. DJamer was good even if it was a weird and totally unnecessary place for one.  Glad there is at least something going on in the west bottoms.
5/7

8. Brewery Emperial (new to me)
Thursday night: Wood fired half chicken, standing in for El Pollo Rey, and it was really good. Love the space, beer is solid, bartenders were friendly. 6.8/7

9.  The Peanut on Main
Friday Lunch. I rough ridin' love this bar. The area around it has changed a lot, but it is pretty much the same. 3 Wings + Cheese Fries. Boulevard Pale Ale(s). Soccer on TV with mostly non soccer fans there which is entertaining in its own way. Wings/fries were fine. Not the best I’ve had there, but whatever. 6/7

10. Westport Saloon
Friday dinner/drinks. Steak fajita burrito was decent.  Dad’s band was playing which was fun. Beers are pretty cheap, waitresses were good, and the music was good. Smells smoky, shared AC w/smoke shop next door maybe? Fun time. 5/7.

11. Succotash (new to me)
Saturday breakfast. Egg sandwich and blueberry pancake short stack.  Way more food than I expected for $7.60, and good too. Waiter kept the coffee full. Pretty generic hipster brunch joint, but good food and good prices. 5.5/7

Diet starts tomorrow!

I went to LC's for the first time. Their burnt ends are good but their sausage is extraordinary. Like it's the size of a small meat loaf but tastes like perfect bbq sausage, with a nice crispy layer on the bottom. I've never seen anything like it. Smashed their jalep poppers and o rings to boot. They have one sauce and it leans toward the Bryant's end of the vinegary/sweet scale but not quite that vinegary. Pretty great.

Tried Aerojuice for the first time today... Just opened at 11th and grand. The panini was meh (lots of cheese) but the meat was barely there and the bread sucked.... Their juice I got is too clear to actually be just ground up veggies.... Looks like green water.

I saw there was one in Manhattan.... Is my experience typical?

I've tried it more than once and it always sucks.

Waited like 20 minutes for a smoothie once.  Got a berry smoothie another time that had no sweetness which was really weird and terrible tasting.  I'm sticking to smoothie king.

The HyVee Market Grille is usually pretty quiet every time I’ve walked by it while shopping here.  The one exception is when the Meadowlark Hills bus is outside, then it’s shoulder to shoulder.

Guys HyVee market Grille was created for retirees who are on fixed income and like to gather for fellowship hour or whatever the newest pyramid scheme is floating around on their social media.

I hit up the hyvee on 135th and Antioch about once a week for the salad bar and my god if you didn’t describe the exact scene to a tee.  They play cards and crap and talk about the war.

Ok. So let’s get this sorted out.

You were getting grief for enjoying a decent cafe for old people.

I was giving you a hard time saying that when I am shopping(I shop at HyVee) there is never anybody in HyVee Grille. The entrance to HyVee Grille is by the Chinese/pizza spots, and also by the deli. So I walk by the entrance, which has sliding glass doors, so I can see inside.

Meadowlark Hills is a retirement community. Therefore when the Meadowlark Hills bus is outside, it has dropped off a bunch of senior citizens, which all go to HyVee Grille. I was exaggerating when I said it was shoulder to shoulder, because that’s the place to be if you are a retiree.

The whole assumption was that you knew I lived in MHK(which I do).  Hopefully that clears the whole thing up.

You can get better Mexican food at a gas station in dodge city.

International Tap House might be your largest selection of beer in one spot, with Border & Double Shift a literal stone's throw away. No liquor tho - for that, plus beer, Emperial is walking distance. I'll let someone else do the food.

Brewery emperial - topekans loved it 6/7 (good fries  :thumbs: )

Antons - what a cluster eff. We sat next to a 16 top that arrived 15 minutes before us and our waitress was overwhelmed. They were out of multiple brands of liquor. Brought me the wrong steak cut. Out of multiple appetizers. Water refill guy accidentally dumped a full glass of water on the table. Pretty lol all around but everyone enjoyed their meal so whatever, crap happens 5/7

interestingl factoid:  eddie v's, a seafood restaurant, serves prime grade steak.  capital grille, a steakhouse, serves choice grade.  both are owned by the same restaurant group.

probably tough for Capital Grille to get enough prime consitently to serve prime.    Eddie Vs probably can as they don't serve as many.   Also notice their menu doesn't list the filets as prime, likely because they are good enough as choice.

Census numbers show it's close between primary KS counties (wyandotte & Johnson) at 227k bachelor/post-bach degrees and MO counties (jackson Clay Platte) at 215k.  The 2.3M KC metro includes a lot of other counties on both sides but just took the biggest closest ones

I just think $4 for a Modelo sounds like a normal bar price, not a special. Now $2 PBR’s, that’s a special! I get it though, you’re paying for the ambiance of the roof top. $6 for a truly is criminal though. It’s like $9.99 for a 6 pack.

I just think $4 for a Modelo sounds like a normal bar price, not a special. Now $2 PBR’s, that’s a special! I get it though, you’re paying for the ambiance of the roof top. $6 for a truly is criminal though. It’s like $9.99 for a 6 pack.

Standard bar cost is like 25-30% of sales price, so that math Truly works out.

I didn't really come here until I moved to Iowa, yes here now, staying at the Cloverleaf Suites, wanted to give them a try, waaaayyyy out of the way for me, pretty good, converted apartments, we're in a two bedroom suite that is big and clean, kids love it. Anyway this is a restaurant thread.

We ate at Ricco's Italian Bistro tonight and it might have been the best dining experience I've ever had, everything was amazing. Again JOCO is way out of the way for us but we'll definitely come back to Ricco's.

Facts. Although I will say that my reference to overrated KC Q relates to the Big 4; Joes, Gates, AB's, and Jack Stack. I'm a ribs guy and the ribs at Joe's were just okay, Gates and AB's ribs are straight awful, and Jack Stack is very good.

I couldn't give you the answer, but that's the criteria I always used growing up driving around.  The best spots were where it was questionable if it was a public establishment or someone's get-together.

LC's you can see the woodpile behind the place and the smoker doors are right behind the counter that you order/pay at. It's also close to Truman Sports Complex.

mir what are the best Wichita BBQ places because I go there more often

Julius' Rib Cage on south Seneca is my all time favorite and I miss it so much, massive smoker that's seemingly always going. Honorable mention to B&C which is downtown, and Pig In Pig Out which is on I-135 and 13th. I really don't like PIPO but when I lived there it probably was the consensus best by Wichitans. I've heard good things about Delano Barbecue Company and The Angry Elephant but I'm not sure either existed when I lived there.

Krokstrom is closing, and that doesn’t reflect well on KC food culture

It’s hard not to see the restaurant’s closing as a referendum on the food culture in KC right now. This city is inundated with investor-backed clones of the same “concept” that serves understirred Manhattans and $14 short-rib mac and cheese. It’s named something meaningless but alliterative, like “Birch + Barrel.” You hear it has a really good brunch.

The difference is that pupusas are stuffed with the filling before cooking while gorditas and arepas are stuffed after cooking. Also pupusas and gorditas are made with an instant corn masa flour such as Maseca. Arepas are made with precooked cornmeal also known as masarepa.

My bud loves torchys and was so excited about it coming to kc. She would text me weekly asking if it's open yet and then on the day it did open she texted me that it's open but she looked at the menu and they had gotten rid of a bunch of her favorites and is now squarely in #fucktorchys territory.

Is this open yet?
No -- and it doesn't appear close.  At least there's no sign or anything that I've seen.

It opened last week. I’m planning on going tomorrow :excited:

I finally went today for lunch.  Was good and probably the best fast food tacos but Lucha is still better.

Spent the weekend in KC and had some great meals.

Friday night: Extra Virgin - anchovies, deviled eggs, duck tongue tacos, spanish meatballs, grilled octopus, lamb skewers, churros & chocolate - 6/7 (highlights were anchovies, octopus and skewers)

Friday night drinks: ITAP - beer selection (CBS on tap!) 6/7, vibe 5.5/7

Saturday lunch: Blue Sushi Sake Grill - had waitress pick six rolls for us, told her we were celebrating the Biden victory, the plate came out with a spread designed to look like Ol' Glory. sushi was 5.5/7, presentation 7/7, atmosphere 4/7

Saturday dinner: Plowboys (OP location) - Pork Nachos and Potato Casserole - nachos were 5/7, casserole 7/7, atmosphere would have been 3/7 but two of the employees got in an argument that involved one of them quitting so 6.5/7

Sunday breakfast: Town Topic w/ mocat - sausage haystack w/ hasbrowns 6/7, company 7/7

Sunday afternoon lunch: LC's - burnt ends 7/7 (maybe the best I've ever had), sausage 6.5/7, beans 6/7, coleslaw 5.5/7, atmosphere 7/7

Disclaimer: all meals/drinks were enjoyed on patios or otherwise taken to-go

KC: what a weekend. did not disappoint 7/7

Need some different takeout options. Live close to KC Joes and their new app plus drive up convenience is so hard to beat, but I'm getting tired of it. Where else should I grab din to go tonight?

 Rules:

Has to be delicious
Has to be easy to order
Has to be fairly close to me or at least travel well (no soggy buns  :nono: )
Kid friendly
I'll prob still just order Joes

They were honestly the best thing on that plate. Perfectly done.

Burg- 4.5/7. I love small patties, because I don't feel miserable after eating the burger. Problem with small patties tho, is it's easy to over cook the meat, which they did. Still, this is the El Diablo. It has their molten wing sauce on it, pepperjack chz, jalapenos, and I added bacon.

Fries- 5.5/7 Crispy AF! :eye:

Kansas City roll is fantastic.

Smoked Salmon, cream cheese, and briefly fried with tempura.  Warm, crunch, and the absolute smoke bomb.

Sayachi. Brookeside next to red door grill by the brookesider

GREAT happy hour food beers and booze

3rd best chicken wings I’ve had in kc.
Kansas City roll is fantastic.

Smoked Salmon, cream cheese, and briefly fried with tempura.  Warm, crunch, and the absolute smoke bomb.

Would recommend if you are a Japanese/sushi person

It's St Louis style pizza but I enjoy it. Used to be one at 95th and Antioch when I was growing up that we ate at all the time.

Not worth driving 30+ minutes for but it's good.

I like it because it's healthish and you can get some healthish food through drive thru. I think that's pretty neat. I don't think it's groundbreaking stuff, but good for dinner, when you can't make your mind up on what you want.

I mean, it's chicken and veggies if you order it right. I'm sure the sauces ding you up a bit on the carb end, but that's about as healthy as you can get for fast food.

Isn't the chicken fried? I just assumed the sauce tasted too good so it had to be bad for you and full of sugar.

Spent the weekend in KC for a bro's bachelor party. We stayed at Harrah's so I tried Gordon Ramsay's Steak twice. Got the prix fixe one night and the A5 Wagyu and king crab another night. Prix fixe was good. The beef wellington was my least favorite thing though, tbh. Maybe I just don't like beef wellington much. The sticky toffee dessert was perhaps the best dessert I've ever eaten. The A5 Wagyu was pretty amazeballs. When people say you can cut it with a fork they aren't lying. That being said, I tried someone else's dry aged prime KC strip and I would be more inclined to order that in the future even if money were no object.

Had SLAPS on the way out of town. Burnt Ends and jalapeno sausage combo plate w/ a rib bone added. Mac n chz and potato casserole for sides. First time having SLAPS and I get the hype. The ribs impressed me the least out of everything and that's not to say they weren't good.

Pretty great weekend overall. 6.8/7

He's got another one in Vegas at the Paris. One of the guys in the party said he'd tried it there and thought this one was better. Definitely wouldn't call it a tourist trap. Wine pairings and service were top notch.

Did it fall apart when you tried to eat it? There's a place in Manhattan that opened (the Harry's/B&B people) that have a very similar looking menu. The food is impossible to eat without a fork and knife. It tastes good but calling it a sandwich is silly if I can't eat it with two hands.

I would see friends go there and tried it.  I agree with you.  It seemed more about putting on a show instagram than actually tasting great.

I recommend Sushi Den/Izakaya Den if you're still up there.

Yeah, I went to the big 12 down there several times and always wondered if it's actually good, I never heard anyone vouch for it.

it’s really legit bbq
i couldn’t get the big monty bc they were out of ribs and burnt ends so got a 3 meat platter- turkey, pulled pork, brisket.  all very well done

three sauces- spicy (great) kc style (sweet), mustard style.  all pretty good.  I used very little of any.

very glad that this place is close to home
That looks great, thanks for the recap. Will try to get down there

Tried to go to Smokin' Guns last night and was kind of a shitshow I didn't have time to wait for so went to their old location that's now Hawg Jaw.  Got ribs (4.2) and chicken (3.9), fries (3), beans (3.2), cheesy corn (2.1 but I don't really like CC anywho).  Nothing to take a trip to NKC for.

Any place serving deli sliced brisket is doing so to hide the fact that they are buying cheap brisket and cooking it to a certain temp rather than cooking to tenderness.

the thing is, pulled pork is really easy to make consistently good. you kind of have to try to screw up or just not give a crap.  brisket is very difficult to make great on a consistent basis, something that restaurants need to do and makes for the better test of a bbq chef imo

This is true and mostly why I never cook brisket. I did one a couple years ago and it was pretty damn good. I basically just threw it together and it somehow turned out great and I know if I did it again, it would be terrible. Plus, I have like a 6-8 hour max on any cook I'm going to do. I don't like any food enough to babysit it all day/night. Agree about pro chefs though. I do wonder if the thin cut places just like it that way though. I'm sure some are lazy and using cheap stuff, but surely Joes could do brisket the "right way" if they really wanted.

yeah i don't think joe's necessarily uses cheap meat like gates does, i just don't think they're taking the time to cook their brisket as well as q39 or chef j's does.  i feel that even jackstack does better brisket than joe's.
joe's cuts theirs thin because it's just easier to throw onto a sandwich and eat that way, but if you cut a joe's brisket into pencil thick slices like q39 does, there's no way it's tender enough to pull apart in the same way.

They are cooking it to 185 or whatever and then pulling it.

they were already open when i got there and had a small line which probably took about 10 minutes to get through.  he doesn’t sell traditional burnt ends, he sells bacon burnt ends.  i didn’t get any because I can’t have nitrates right now.

I grabbed a pound of jalapeño cheddar sausage, a pound of turkey, and a slab.  it’s all so good.  he cooks in a traditional texas style using salt/and a lot of pepper for his rub.

how did you find out about it?
I came across it on Facebook I think. Followed, all the pictures looked legit. During “quarantine” I told my wife that I wanted chef j for my birthday or Father’s Day or something

Any type of food. I don’t think there is really any variety of restaurant that I can’t get a version of here, so just looking for good. Could be family involved but likely not.

breweries:

- the biggest change that will have happened since you were last here is that Strange Days has a new non-trash brewmaster and their crap actually rules now. they also got rid of their parking lot and made it a patio.
- Torn Label expanded next door to a much larger space, and they now have a kitchen with a fantastic menu. and their beer is consistently top tier in kc. they've been super busy since they got the new space.
- Double Shift is still top dog. if they have the Mecha Shiva get that
- City Barrel has really leaned into the hazy game and they're very good at it. decent menu, a bit pricey imo
- Brewery Emperial now has shade on their patio. beer is average. fun spot if it's not super hot and also a good menu. i am a fan of fried pickles.
- Casual Animal also expanded to an adjacent space, and if it's not the best venue of any brewery in kc, it's certainly the prettiest. beers still average. i like going here.
- Nimble is located kind of behind double shift, they're pretty new and haven't figured out their beer yet. nice people though
- Stockyards is good just for a reason to get to the bottoms and have a cerveza royale
- Crane has taken huge leaps forward imo, and they apparently make very good bbq (it was sold out last time i went). Wilma's food truck was there though and it's wonderful. located in Raytown directly on the newly opened Rock Island rail trail. They have a lot of sours but have made some good hazies and stouts lately
- Big Rip (NKC) average beer, but at least they try fun stuff. good spot just over the river from Strange Days
- Cinder Block (NKC) they don't deviate much from what works, and it mostly does. nice large patio now. also it's right across the street from Restless Spirits (!) which has fantastic whiskey
- Calibration (NKC) trash
- Callsign (NKC) was p meh last time i was there but i should give it another try.
- Rock Creek (Mission) is fairly new so they are inconsistent but show a lot of promise. nice new patio
- Sandhills (Mission) i just am not a fan. i've tried two or three times and it has never worked for me

Good summary.  Border is temp closed as they move east.  Red Sash taking their place.  That Casual Animal space is pretty awesome.  Also another brewery is coming to RM soon, River Bluff.  Their main location is St Joe.

KITTY’S CAFE, TENDERLOIN
The cafe has been Asian-owned since it was founded in 1951 by a Japanese American couple, Paul and Kitty Kawakami, who had been confined to a U.S. internment camp out West during World War II, although they were born in the U.S.

Their restaurant quickly gained a following for its tenderloins — three thin pieces deep-fried in tempura batter, and topped with lettuce, pickles and a bit of house-made hot sauce.

Once a six-stool diner, Kitty’s Cafe is now to-go and cash only.

Ragazza is great.  Carmen's is fun too -- so old and dingey looking, but the food is good.

Last time I went to Carmen's they seated us in the bar area downstairs because we were non-reservation plebs.  Anyway, I was seated like RIGHT next to the telephone on the wall, and it kept ringing in my ear all night.  Super annoying but i also made a big deal out of being startled every time the phone rang which was a pretty funny recurring bit.

If you like small portion but very well done food then yes.  It's a supper club so be ready for a "show" too.

Even though I said it's smaller, their burger is awesome and a good size.  They put it on the menu more for the other hospitality workers.  It used to be on only after 10pm but got too popular.  They ended up spinning off Ravenous from it.

How many of you guys have been to strips in Olathe or Waldo?

Went the other day for the pork tenderloin, top 2 in the city easily.

They have beef burgers now that I'm sure are awesome but haven't tried.  And the choice of pork rinds in lieu of fries is great too.

Looking for suggestions on a good Thai restaurant that is within 15-20 minutes of the Scheel's OP soccer complex.  Having vegetable tempura on the menu is a definite plus, but not a requirement.

So yesterday I did what any pak'r needs to do when going to Kansas City, actual Kansas City, not Johnson County or the northland. I broke bread with the Godfather 'sclams and got his blessing to grace his fine city. It was amazing dining with the clams clan, great people, but we all knew that already.

We ate at Q39. I had ribs, sausage, fries, and baked beans. The food was awesome, much better than most overrated KC Q. It's certainly isn't a place you go to grab a half a slab on Saturday and dig in and get sloppy while watching the Q@ts, but it was great nonetheless. My wife had a pork belly sandwich. The pork belly was sliced into pieces that I'd describe as the thickness of thick bologna. The pork belly had the fat but was crispy and was fantastic, they also put an apple slice in the sando.

I actually went to the Omaha outpost this week. It was shockingly expensive. And fine I guess.

#fanningbrag I go to these on the reg and agree probably the best high quality.  If you just want to see how big of a check you can drop have to add in Corvino with Mercury Room chaser, any of the above mentioned nice steak places, Piiropos (sp?) up north is pretty spendy and good.

Done all of these multiple times.  Had forgotten about piropos, they have a great steak

but hot chicken over BBQ?  Assuming that was their main topic, not focusing on the actual good restaurants in both cities. I found nashville's food selection pretty pud.  That Husk place was good.

Love Husk - that chef is BITB with southern food

What/who is the antecedent of "he"?

There are tons of hot chicken places in Dallas, but if you're actually talking about in Arlington, I probably can't help you out.

This place was really good. I loved their wings. Their bar is way backed up tho and is slow as hell. That's the only thing I would say about them. Waitress was waiting for drinks for over 15 minutes on both of the drinks we ordered. I would definitely go back, but probably not on a Friday night for now.

Honestly this guy sounds insufferable and that's coming from a guy who was a snobby bartender for five years and has worked an additional five years in the beer, wine and spirits industry.

In my experience, nobody that orders a vodka martini wants any vermouth in it whatsoever and a Manhattan should never be served on the rocks unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Probably should be in a Lawrence themed thread. 

We found this place called Saltwell Farm Kitchen, out on the southwest side of Clinton Lake. The owners bought an old farm house and converted the parlor into a dining room in the winter and in the spring/summer have outdoor dining.  We’ve gone twice now, each menu has been different but it’s essentially the chef prepares a 5-6 course dinner that takes around 2 hours to serve.  Pretty neat experience, great date night if you’re looking for something different.

Man, I wish something would go in the Fairway Houlihans location. That building has been empty for over 2 years now. Seems like a pretty decent location for something good. The Houlihans started going downhill towards the end, but I liked hitting the bar for apps/drinks at happy hour back in the day. Seems like something could work there, but I guess if Houlihans couldn't pull it off, maybe it isn't such a great spot.

yeah, I still think a sports bar type place with good food could make it there. Lots of people within walking distance and really the Peanut is the only sports bar close. Depends on the food/prices as with any place I guess. The landlord must really think highly of the location for it to be empty for 2 years.

Room 39 was a mess yesterday, they had a prix fixe thing going for mothers day. ended up being there 1hr45min and left without receiving the last course because baby 'blast needed a nap and it was clear they weren't going to get it figured out any time soon. hopefully just a one time fluke but they have officially been put on NOTICE.

Did the tikki over on troost for a weekday lunch and was fun.  taco tuesday so $1.50 for a hard shell.

fun vibe with the students.  Not a fan of ordering and paying for chips, salsa and queso.  It's fine if you want to charge for chips/salsa (I guess) but if I order queso don't bring a separate basket of chips and charge me.  waive the salsa charge and just charge me for the CCQ.  Spent $10 for chips, salsa and cheese.  But otherwise enjoyable.

Chingu was really great, i'll be back v soon. it's the first new place in westport in quite a while i've been really jazzed about

everything on the menu is intended to be a bunch of shared plates

pork dumplings - excellent, served on a bed of stir fried vegetables
korean pancakes - fantastic, served with a sauce made of soy + sake
kfc wings - the star of the show, almost too much. 6 enormous wings with like a solid inch thick double fried batter, lol. try not to eat too much of whatever apps you get because these are not as good as leftovers

everything is served with kimchi, pickled onions, some fresh greens, bean sprouts, and rice. and our server gave us some lemon sponge cake for dessert at the end. it's a lot of food and everything was really top notch.

Parlor is a good choice. easy access to King G, Emperial, and/or Casual Animal for spots with cool ambiance and room for 7. it should be pretty nice on saturday to bar hop around xroads.

But there's nothing a guy can get there that they can't get better somewhere else.  Go there to try it out/experience the atmosphere, but don't expect a life changing experience.

IMO.

I need to come to KC in a couple of week to do some shopping at your stores that recently had a "change of policy" on who could purchase their products.  Is the Woodyard BBQ good? I've seen them on food channel shows throughout the years but have never been or really saw any recommendations from you KC peeps.

it's fine, good beans iirc. have you tried LC's or Slaps?
Not a fan of LC's. In fact I thought you all were trolling me when I went there before a Royals game a few years back.

It is, I fully enjoy lulu's regardless of pissclam's assessment. That being said there is a wonderful Thai place called Lemongrass merely ~200ft from where Lulus intends to open their next spot. Now, there is Mr. Gyros, Sinbad's, Amirs, that are able to survive (rightfully so) in that area. Lemongrass survived COVID, ride and die for me

How was it?
It was fantastic, It's pretty much make your own ramen/pho which is dope. It was a fun experience that I will definitely do again. It was a nice/casual dinner date.

If you haven't been before the menu is super overwhelming. Luckily Ms. GregKSU1027 had been before and could explain it to me like I was five.
We got the Meat Combo with shrimp with the Mushroom broth and some random veggies, they let you pick 5 garnishes/sauces to put in your soup.  We absolutely crushed the meal and it was 70 bucks with tip for the two of us.
Lil #ack for ya.
They also let you take the broth and whatever else home so make sure if you have leftover ingredients to cook it all before you leave for the biggest bang for your buck.

Was fun and would do again.

the longer you hold in the poop, the more of it will reabsorb into your body therefore saving the environment and producing a more “organic” dung.  if you’ve not tried it, you might be surprised how much mother nature appreciates the highest organic concentration dung.

Apparently today she saw an interesting restaurant that looked like your average chili's or applebees or whatever.

That restaurant's name is twin peaks. She said it was her and like 10 dudes eating lunch at the bar. Food was decent but the waitresses made her uncomfortable.

That same thing happened to my mom and aunt once.  They went out for my aunt's birthday and decided to try "Twin Peaks."  They got in and sat down and when the waitress showed up they were a bit taken aback.  The waitress said something to the effect of "this isn't what you were expecting, right?" and they said "no." but they stayed and had a great birthday lunch anyway.

Tried Chingu, Cafe Corazon and Chewology this past weekend.

Chingu: 7/7 - had the scallion pancakes, mandu, Korean fried chicken and pork belly bo ssam. The chicken and pork belly might have been the best I've ever had of either. The portions are redic.

Cafe Corazon: 6.5/7 - breakfast empanada with an Oaxacan Latte. Latte was good and the empanada was fantastic. Only ding against them is the atmosphere isn't remarkable. Kind of felt like I was having breakfast in an art gallery in a former warehouse.

Chewology: 4/7 - had the pork belly bao, fried chicken and beef shank ramen. All were just ok but might be unfair because I was comparing it to my meal at Chingu.

I have been wanting to try this. A few months ago, I took my kids there on a last minute decision. It was like 8pm on a Saturday night. It was packed and there were no kids and zero people eating pizza at that time so we bailed. Ha. I've heard its great though.

Yeah it's more of a bar than a restaurant at nighttime.  Kind of a dive, actually.  For lunch though it was pretty darn good.

They mention BBQ in their marketing but I agree that the menu is pretty much just higher-quality Mexican.  The carnitas were BBQ and really good.  They had the traditional Mexican flavors as well as a smokiness that I don't typically get at other restaurants.

We prob just ordered the wrong starter. Other stuff coming out looked good. The place was just stale. Gaels is fine. Decent bar food and more of a fun bar vibe we were wanting before the show.

Made it to Chingu finally and at some of the recommendations from here. The wings were pretty damn good, but were a complete mess. Also, I think someone here said they were a lot and that is true. I knew it ahead of time but I wasted like 3 of them. Wanted to try some different things and we had a show after so no way to save them. If I ever got them again, I would prob rather get them for takeout. Pretty good stuff overall.

Sad to hear clams experience, can we get a chicat review?

I enjoyed it.  The food was a good version of a pretty limited menu.  My complaint would be that there wasn't anything too exotic on the menu.

The highlight is Baba coming out of the kitchen to ask about local's dr appointments and ensure them that their favorite soup will be on the menu next week.

I have had Jerusalem Cafe (catering), Yafa and am about to try Arabic Kitchen KC (catering) and will hopefully try Baba next week as well. Yafa is current number 1 for me.

I'm sure it's been discussed in multiple places and possibly multiple times in this thread, but let's discuss KC BBQ. Everyone can talk about which place is the best, and that's boring. I want to know who has the best:

1. Ribs
2. Brisket
3. Pulled Pork
4. Sauce
5. Sides

I'm not well experienced with KC BBQ, I've eaten at the famous places once or twice. In my experience, Arthur Bryant's has the best brisket and sauce (I realize it's a love or hate flavor) and Joe's KC has the best ribs. And Jack Stack and Q39 are pretty damn good at everything, but not great at anything.

So where should Mrs. Stevesie and I go on our KC BBQ tour?

4. Sauce - Gates

What if I told you that many of you BBQ lovers will discover you can't eat smoked meats after a few years? It sucks, man. I love the aroma andflavor but can no longer eat it. Many of my aged friends are in the same boat. It's all about the gas grille and a good rub these days.

their brisket, burnt ends, sausage, and ribs are top notch, so is their chili, it’s only a special item.last time I was in, the owner brought out bacon burnt ends that he was messing around with in the kitchen.  they were really good, not sure if they are going to be a menu item or not.  their pulled pork is pretty much the same as everyone else’s.

sides:  cheese curds, mac and cheese, potato salad

They have really unique high quality specials. Had their lobster bisque and it was delicious.

I mean to me they aren't replacing hard core BBQ mainstays but they also just got out of a food truck and into a physical building so they are still getting their groove going.

phil lost all credibility when he said that everyone does brisket well, which is about the worst opinion on bbq someone could have.

brisket is the hardest bbq meat to prepare and if you can’t discern the difference between Joe’s brisket and Chef J’s, or Harp, or Wolfepack, then you probably don’t know enough about bbq to be in this conversation.  i’m not wrong.

Any place that sells shaved brisket as thin as deli meat is not really bbq. They’re smoking it to doneness and then slicing it thin to hide the toughness to save time + easy to reheat.

A LOT of kc places do this

I feel like I kind of answered but…
if he goes to any of my god tier places, which to me are all very interchangeable, he’s going to have the best ribs, brisket, and pulled pork that kc has to offer.

sauce?  gates, but I don’t use sauce on my god tier bbq and wouldn’t eat gates without sauce.  how nuts is that! the sauce at slaps is the worst sauce i’ve ever tried.

sides? for me, it’s jackstack.  their beans, cheesy corn, potato salad, fries, it’s all good.  their fries dipped in beans has made many a meal for me.  slaps is my 2nd place pick for sides, followed by everyone else.  tbh, i’m not going anywhere for side dishes.  i’d rather gorge myself on delicious bbq until the meat sweats take over.

the way to do it is to get their larger platters that serve 2-3 and come with all of the important crap then eat it over a couple meals.

Third Street Social has that cozy yet lively atmosphere that makes it a go-to spot. It's not just about the great food; it's the whole experience. The bar area, especially during happy hour, has this welcoming vibe that keeps you coming back.
Speaking of trying something new, I recently discovered Riwa Restaurant in Füssen, and it was a culinary adventure. From their appetizers to the main courses, every dish was bursting with flavor.

Need to get back to Antler Room. I went when it first opened and didn't really like it but I know enough people who I trust love it.

On the list to still go to. Like I said enjoyed Farina but I just do t see it and Antler room as competitors looking at prices and menus. Guess I gotta go just to check

Checked it out. Pretty good. I’m not a bbq snob so I’m fairly easy to please. Ordered a few apps and random stuff. They forgot my brisket sandwich but I was too full to care. All good and would def go back. I didn’t care much for the basic sauce but it wasn’t terrible. The spicy was pretty good. Just missed happy hour which stopped at 5. Prices were pretty good regardless. Thanks for the recommendation.

upon ordering my very first CHAMPION BURRITO from k-mach, I found myself wondering as I drove to pick it up, who is the champion that this deliciously decadent morsel of mexican madness was named after?

well folks, the answer to my question became abundantly obvious as I hit the halfway mark of consumption.  the CHAMPION in question is d-lew!  without his unabashed leadership in this space and floating around the idea that one day I may try this breathtaking burrito, I may never have!

muy excellete senior! @dq12

campesino (where the old lucky's was in downtown misson) has just obliterated my desire to go to mi ranchito/k machos/jose peppers/dos reales ever again.

Its been open for about a month and I've been twice. The best way to describe it is to imagine if a younger jose peppers had a baby with a younger margaritas and then that kid married the kid of mi ranchito and k machos and they had a small beautiful amazing child called Campesino who opened up a restaurant.

Finally made it to Chosun on SM PKWY. It was enjoyable. Lil SF loved being the chef. The sliced brisket and ribeye were really good. The pork belly wasn't my favorite. It was pretty plain, but we prob didn't cook it right. I would get shrimp instead next time. We had a pretty good LOL in the car after. I noticed but didn't think much of it while we were there, but in the car Lil SF said, "dad, did you see the people next to us burn everything"? I laughed. There was a couple next to us and they grilled the absolute crap out of everything they had. Like, the thin sliced brisket that takes 13 seconds max, they kept it all on for 38 minutes. They made beef jerky out of pretty much everything. It was fun to watch.

Overall, pretty enjoyable place and will go back.

It is bright but not overbearing inside, I never even thought about it until you mentioned it but now I can see that it does look bright from the outside. Definitely a blue'ish hue on some of their lights.

Also they do a hard upsell on their JUMBO margaritas. Had one the first time and it was pretty strong...second time I went we just ordered regular sized margaritas but the server was like "Are you sure? For THREE dollars more we can give you alot more"

Boom done.

yeah, there is a little grill in the middle of the table and your just order your meats. You can order specific or they have some combo type options that have a few. Its a little pricey, but not terrible. If taking kids, I recommend hitting it fairly early. We got there at like 5 and got right to a seat, but by the time we left it was pretty full and I'm sure there is a wait.

that’s exactly what mrs clams ordered!  she really liked the bisque, scallops were good, didn’t like the risotto.

i chose not to order from the restaurant week menu and instead went with the sea bass, it was good, nothing outstanding.

Been on a pizza kick the past month or so. Buffalo State was pretty great and had Illazerone the first time this past weekend. I'm the only one in my family that really likes pizza, but both were way better than the usual trips to Minsky's or Waldo. Also, dropped by River Bluff brewery for the second time before our pizza outing. Love that place. Just a cool spot and the beer is decent. I've been twice now and both times I've parked right in front and been 1 of less than 20 or so people in that giant place. Is there any chance of that place sticking around? Hoping for the best, but friday happy hour and like 10 people were in there.

River Bluff was fairly busy for the Chiefs game (was there). I don't recall there being food, people brought it in, mostly from Minsky's

idk where else you are eating tamales, maybe a tad bit small but their size didn’t seem off to me.  i’m thinking about ordering a 10 pack for “the big game”
