So we loaded up and showed up one day around Noon. Ambiance was really cool. It's in the middle of some sort of progressive looking shanty-esque suburb. The kind of place that does drag queen bingo. I was right at home. Inside was college sport bar, but with a nice, huge board on the wall of all their beer selection. It Was quite expansive. Service was top notch, too. Nice server took care of us, made sure our glasses were never empty. The food came out at a good clips, and we got an unexpected bonus of free little beignet-like donuts with some delicious dipping sauces. As for food, we started off with a jumbo order of the Truffle Parmesan Hand-Cut Fries for the table. We got to choose two from their extensive list of aioli dipping sauces. Fries were good. Dusted with the perfect amounts of truffle and parmesan. And the sauces were my oh my. I recommend paying the upcharge to just try them all. I mentioned the time earlier, because we had no idea we were stumbling upon their brunch menu. Even more options to choose from! I got the Crispy Waffle Smash Burger (smashed hertzog beef patties, fried egg, smoked bacon, merkt's cheddar, caramelized onion, maple aioli, crispy buttermilk waffle). This thing was really nice. Perfect waffle, not too small, not too big, and no oily or anything obtrusive. A nice bun option. Eggs and bacon sometime get lost against giant burger patties, but with these smash patties, the extra accoutrements really stand out and make this burger really stand out in my mind. I also for the try the Smokestack Burger (smoked burnt ends, smoked gouda, whiskey bbq glaze, pickle relish, chipotle aioli & crispy jalapeño straws). Uhhh, as you can read, this thing was loaded with goodness. Fatty burger, smokey burnt ends, sweet boozy glaze, acidic pickles, and texture from that jalapeno. This was the perfect burger. I insist you order this. Overall, my research did not reveal Beer Kitchen to me, locals recommendation did. Shows that you gotta use your street smarts instead of your book smarts sometimes. Best meal I had in Kansas City.

Don't skip coming here…read more We went with the two recommendations from Our server and we're NOT disappointed. My husband got the huevos rancheros. Delicious. I got the chilaquiles with chicken and for the two sauces choice the white and verde. It was the best I've ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavors were spot on! The service was slow but that was bc every single table was taken - and now I know why. We will be back.

The food was very good the flavor was on point and my favorite was the hash browns they were buttery and crunchy. My wife and I shared the meat lovers breakfast burrito and it was good size and filled with the filling. The sauce on top had a little kick to it but that could have been the veggies on top, but would get it again. Our friend got the breakfast enchiladas and said it was very good, she likes the green sauce over the red. I didn't personally try so I can't say how it was. My son ordered the traditional breakfast, and that's exactly what it was, but he liked it. The pancakes are the size of the plate and had a fluffy center and crispy edges. We did have to ask for more syrup because they were so big. The only reason it was not a 5 was because I felt the waitress could have been around more. I felt that since we had a group of 7 and the gratuity was already added she didn't worry about it. Our waters went empty and we had to ask a different waiter for more water and syrup, when she came over the water was warm and didn't have any ice. A kid spilled her syrup we went and asked for a rag and we cleaned it up which we expected but we had to flag someone down to see if she could get more syrup. I just felt she wasn't as attractive as she could have been. We went there on a Monday around 9:45, so it wasn't extremely busy. I would say that you should try it, it was good food!

The food and service was a 10/10! Wish he asked if I wanted dessert...too shy to ask and we were on lunch break. The blended burger had blue cheese which was such a nice compliment to the beets and mushroom that made a majority of the burger. You get a nice taste of the beets with an after taste punch of blue cheese. Definitely worth a try with or without the fried egg. I would suggest adding in red onions as well for a nice bite. The blueberry mint kombucha was a nice compliment to my meal. It had enough acid to balance out that blue cheese after taste. I would definitely love to come again to try more!

My friend and I made a reservation ahead of time, and I'm glad we did - it's a small space! We started with some hot tea, and I appreciated their selection. We then both proceeded to order identical meals: the house salad with goat cheese and blueberries and the filet de poiv (with fresh broccolini and mashed potatoes). It was SO delicious. Truly, that cut of meat was beyond tender and so, so flavorful. This whole meal felt like SUCH a treat. High recommend

My husband and I had read nothing but good things about Rye so, as we were at The Plaza on…read moreSaturday, we decided to give it a try...and can see why it is all the rage! The restaurant interior is a combination of both rustic and elegance. Our server was attentive and so sweet! For the appetizer, we ordered the whipped goat cheese. Even if you don't like plain goat cheese, like my husband, trust me, you'll like this. It has a honey mixture on top that makes the goat cheese all the more addicting! It is accompanied by DELICIOUS crusty bread, salad that tastes like it is mixed with a SAVORY sweet onion vinaigrette, and prosciutto. For entrees, I ordered the regular friend chicken sandwich with a side of fries. As I am from the South, I am VERY picky about my fried chicken. As far as restaurant fried chicken goes, this is THE best fried chicken I've ever eaten! The skin was thick and crispy and the chicken breast was very juicy! Not greasy at all. The condiment is a spicy aioli, which was not too spicy (a good thing). It also comes with a pickled cucumber and onion salad that was addicting. The sandwich has one of my favorite types of lettuce: Bibb. The fries were PERFECTLY crispy and seasoned. My husband ordered the fried chicken, which comes with mashed potatoes and gravy and a salad. He loved his meal and said his fried chicken was also the best. The mashed potatoes, which of course I had to try, were so buttery and the prime example of why it is a comfort food. Again, we can see why Rye is recommended by multiple people. We cannot wait to eat here again!!!!

Came here with a few friends for lunch. They weren't busy at the time. Welcoming nice atmosphere. Loved the added touch of the cute little container of flowers on each table. We started out sharing the deviled eggs. Two with Sriracha, two with smoked salmon, and two with bacon. Loved them! Also shared the brussel sprouts which were good, but it seemed like it was missing something. I ordered the artichoke carbonara. It was very tasty and rich. I've never had bucatini noodles. It holds the sauce very well because they're basically like noodle straws. The egg on top was an excellent added addition to the dish. I really wanted a dessert, but I was so full after eating. After I left, I wish I ordered one to take home. Next time for sure. Oh almost forgot our waitress was excellent.

I found The Pressed Penny online, and google map directions were easy to follow. I lucked out with a parking space in the small lot, and entered through the back door. Inside it's just dark enough, with warm wood and warm lighting throughout. There's a variety of seating options; I chose a barstool since I was alone and wanted drink recommendations. The bartender was welcoming and helpful. I chose a cocktail from a printed list, then ordered food after chatting with other patrons about their favorites. it seems the place recently changed hands and the menu isn't as expansive as it once was, but plenty of options suited me. After my first drink I was interested in a gin & tonic, but the gin selection was pretty slim so I tried a new-to-me Scotch instead. The food was ready pretty quickly. Food and drinks were all very good (I had some sort of fried chicken chunks) and i was comfortable just hanging out until the rain let up. A TV or two showed a hockey game, but without audio; a cool playlist helped set the mood. I'll be back next time I'm in town!
