I ordered a catered lunch for the staff at my office today. Lunch was a huge hit! The management made sure to lettuce wrap some of the burgers for the gluten free folks. Communication was excellent. Some folks who had never tried the veggie burger said it was the best they've ever had. Thank you for a great lunch! Will be ordering it again :)

I just moved to the neighborhood from downtown KCMO. Naturally I wanted to try food nearby where I now live. One neighbor introduced me to this restaurant. Thus I took his suggestion to dine with him last Wednesday night. Since he told me what he normally orders, I ordered salmon sandwich under the same Handheld category. My dish was super and the server was also great who brought me hot water three times with extra lemon pieces. If I paid the bill, I would tip her well! Oh, salmon was well done and it went well with gluten-free bread. I don’t care for bacon so my order didn’t have it. Fries were okay since I dipped them with honey mustard instead of ketchup! I certainly will come again at happy hour around 5:30 pm. My aim is to sit at the bar to chat with whoever happens to sit right next to me!

This was far and away the very best dining experience I have ever had! I was in town on business from Columbus, Ohio and wanted something local. SCORE! From the moment I walked in, I was treated as if the only guest in the restaurant. Friendly, warm and caring...and I hadn't yet been seated. Dining alone is often just a little awkward, so the hostess suggested I sit the the Chef's table overlooking the kitchen. This was perfect. The waitress, Meryl was also instantly engaged in making this a perfect experience. She recommended a drink, which I was already focused on. The drink was perfect. She then brought out bread, which I politely told her to go ahead and take back so that someone else could have it as I could not. That was all that waw said...not that I have a gluten intolerance. I ordered the filet, and based on having watched the chefs for a little while I took a chance and ordered it medium rare. When the steak came out, it was brought to me, instantly, by another warm person, one of the line-operators. Merl then came by to ensure I had everything I needed, and disappeared just as stealthily. I took my first bite, and looked up. Both chefs were standing and looking my way to see my reaction. Thinking a high-five was a bit much, I signalled a very enthusiastic thumbs up, and mouthed "thank you". As I was finishing the GM came by. Of course I made him listen to my perfect experience, and how I was nearly tempted to schedule another trip to Kansas City, just to bring my wife for dinner. At that point, I had already made the comment about Meryl having been "a 10"...when she subtlety placed a dessert menu over my right shoulder and said " there are two desserts you can have, and I would recommend the sorbet." I was wrong, she wasn't a 10, she was a 10.5. Having remembered that I could have the bread, she made the correct assumption that I could have gluten, and presented the only two viable options on the menu. Fantastic. Oh, and before I forget, the steak, the medium rare steak. I have never eaten one so perfectly cooked. A one to two millimeter brown ring and the entire rest of the steak a warm pink. The center of the steak was fully cooked (12oz. filet) and at no point was there even a drip of blood. This was amazing! While leaving the hostess caught me with my hand on the door, thanked me for the visit and asked me how it was. I took my hand off the door and told her that the entire experience was literally perfect and it all started with her when I walked in and finished with this right now. "Oh, bless you", she said, as I walked out the door never having had an overall food, presentation, ambiance and service experience like this before. Great job to all!
