    Went to get some dinner and drinks with my dog. Sat on the patio. The service here sucks. I had 4 different servers look directly at me and keep walking and waiting on other tables. I finally had to flag someone down to ask for a menu. Finally got a menu, ordered, and the server never came back until my food was ready. I was wanting several drinks with dinner but each time I wanted one, I had to flag down my server to get her to stop at my table. I finally got fed up and left. I won’t be going back.

    Good food. Server/bartender had RBF. Seemed annoyed we were trying to order and interrupt her endless scrolling.

    Family dinner with grand kids. They had fun. They loved the smoked chicken nuggets and after eating their kids meals started on our Whomp platter too.

    We ate here with family after enjoying the downtown KC Christmas market last year. Little did we realize there was a Fanduel party happening so it was very festive. Fortunately we were seated quickly and the food didn't take long to come out. It was delicious and I hope to come back next time we are in KC.

    Jo-Jo potatoes are a MUST order. The Wagyu meatloaf was delicious and a huge portion. The street corn side was fantastic. Great atmosphere. Our waiter was super helpful explaining everything. Back to the Jo-Jo potatoes it's like they take a whole potatoes and somehow get it all crispy bits inside so it's like a baked potato meets crispy potato wedges and then seasoned to perfection.
