To be fair, this restaurant faces real challenges -- tucked inside a hotel adjacent to the expo center and KC airport, staffing and volume are unpredictable at best. On a quiet night, our bartender was pulling double duty, tending bar and waiting tables with a smile. He was friendly, capable, and making it work. That kind of effort deserves recognition. Cudos. The food was acceptable, and honestly for a convenience stop while traveling, it does the job. My one genuine complaint -- and I'll own it as a pet peeve -- is the French Dip. What arrived was a chuck roast sandwich on sliced toast with au jus. The meat appeared to have been processed rather than pulled, giving it a texture somewhere between shredded and ground. It tasted fine. That's not the issue. The issue is the name. A French Dip is thinly sliced roast beef, or even prime rib, on a French roll with au jus -- a classic with a specific identity. What was served, while a perfectly respectable dish in its own right, was not that. Call it a homestyle chuck roast sandwich, a braised beef dip, anything honest -- and there is no complaint. But borrowing the French Dip name sets an expectation this dish simply does not meet. Rename the sandwich and this becomes a solid three-star airport-adjacent hotel restaurant. The effort is there. The honesty in the menu just needs to catch up. read more

The wait staff was a bit slow to greet me and take my order but the place was busy. The waitress I had was nice and did a pretty good job once my food was ordered. The meal (fish and fries) was decent. Since it was after 6 PM and there isn't much as far as food goes in the immediate area (the nearby BBQ place was closed for the day) this was it and as mentioned it wasn't bad. I got the impression that a lot of the patrons came from the nearby hotels and not just the hotel this restaurant is located in. read more

Our server was very friendly and did a great job managing the entire bar area - she was the bartender and server for the entire area! It was a positive experience for me that the bar/restaurant was busy and lively on a Thursday evening. I had the spinach grain bowl and hubby had the French Dip sandwich for a late dinner. I thought my bowl was pretty good and hubby thought his sandwich was just ok, but not bad. Overall opinion, if you're in the area or staying at the hotel, this is a good option for dinner or drinks. read more

Service was good, the food was decent but sticky tables are a turn off. Its a basic hotel restaurant, so for travelers it'll do.

Weak coffee, dried out food and high prices. People staying at the hotel should go out for food if at all possible. The bar is good.

Finger lickin' good ribs with baked beans, crispy crunchy fries cole slaw hit the spot. read more

"French dip" is served as roast beef chunks on white slice of bread with hardly any cheese. The Au Jus is a clear liquid. For $10 you'd think that the loaded fries would be an appetizer to share - it's the size of a fist. Service was slow - only one guy working the bar and 7 tables. Might be time to actually hire some staff and not be cheap on the food. If there were actually options around the hotel- this place would be broke. Bonus star for existing and sympathy for the one guy trying to keep up. read more

After flying into MCI, I found out that my bags were still at home in Vegas, so I ended up at a hotel near the airport. Wanting some real food, I happened upon the Boulevard Grill on Yelp. Located inside the Four Points by Sheraton hotel, it was super convenient, as it was right next door to my hotel. It it kind of like a sports pub, with TV's around the bar and dining room, with spacious seating with tables and booths. A small menu, but a nice variety of appetizers, some sandwiches, 3 dinner offerings, a couple salads, and even two desserts. I got the Chargrilled 12oz Kansas City Strip Steak, served with french fries and a wedge salad. My steak was a 'perfect' medium rare. Kudos to the cook! The wedge salad was a simple iceberg wedge, sprinkled with cheddar cheese shreds & a few sliced grape tomatoes (choice of dressing on the side), and the fries were what I would call beer-battered, but lightly done. A good meal for $21. It is located inside the hotel, just off the lobby. Except for the small signage below the hotel sign, there is nothing eye-catching to know that it is there. read more

Stayed at the four points for the weekend. Came to boulevard grill when we checked in. Big restaurant. Food and drinks were good. We ordered nachos and chicken wings. Service was good even though they were busy and only 2 employees working. Ate breakfast the next morning here. $15 for all u can eat buffet. Had waffles, biscuit and gravy, eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, fruit, bagels, cereal. Solid meal. read more

I had appetizers while staying at the hotel. It was everything I expected, service was very good. Convenient when staying there.

The Good: Food was excellent. Philly sandwich and sea salt fries. The bad: Very slow. There were only 3 other tables occupied when I went in. Got a menu and drink quickly. After that I waited 10 minutes before a waitress came to take my order. Another 20 minutes to get my food. Finished eating, wrote this review on my phone and have yet to had my waitress come back. If the service had been better I would have given 5 stars. read more

Service was pretty chill! I went in super late to get food. So glad they stay open late! Overall, salmon was bomb! The ribs are a 7/10 which is not bad for possibly oven baked ribs? The jalapeño poppers are bomb for sure! read more

The bartender and server were very friendly and efficient. There was only the two of them in the crowded bar/restaurant and they handled taking care of everyone with a smile. I had the bacon/blue burger and it was cooked perfectly. Additionally they had great music playing in the background. read more

Stayed here for 4 days and ate here most days. They do not put seasoning on their meats. Really, I asked server, that's what she said. I ordered the NY strip my last night. It wasn't good. No flavor and was rare. I ordered med well. I sent back after waiting 8 minutes for server to check on me. I finally had to goto her. Anyways not recommending this place. read more

The fruit in the buffet for brunch was amazing. Not only was it tasty, but there was a huge selection. The service was also really good. Unfortunately, the eggs in the buffet were the most disgusting I've ever seen. Fortunately, the waiter was able to put in an order for me to have eggs made fresh. They were good. read more

We came here for dinner and actually walked a few minutes to come here from our hotel. This was in another hotel and was recommended to us by our hotel. There weren't a lot of people eating here when we came. The menu was simple and each item had a description of what the food was. Our waitress was nice and helpful when we had questions about the menu. My dad had been here in the past so he said that the burgers were good here. Some things on the menu sounded good to me but decided to order a burger. I am ordered the Roadhouse ($10.99) with a side of fries and my dad ordered the B&B Burger ($10.99). We waited a few minutes before our food came out. The Roadhouse burger was big and tasted good; however, there wasn't as much A1 sauce than I was expecting so I added more and that was good. The fries were good and just the right amount to make somebody very full. Overall, I thought this place was okay and would check it out if you're staying at one of the nearby hotels. read more

This is not your typical hotel restaurant. The service is good, food is plentiful and it is a rockstar.

Service was bad. But it was only 1 server and on Christmas. Food came out cold and we asked for it to be remade and then never ended up getting it. read more

Great service - we came after 11pm, and the staff and food were still really good. Felt welcomed and attended to. Food came fast. Nice batter , and clean white fish. Great seasoning and the fries were batteres hot, and crispy. Paired with a cold Cosmic ale. They are open till midnight on Fridays. There's no where to eat for a while around this area at anytime. read more

I had the spinach grains bowl and it was excellent, all ingredients were fresh and wonderful!

After looking over the reviews I was a bit skeptical about coming here. Needed a close bar/restaurant to watch the Chiefs play before a flight. So glad we decided to come I here!!

Spinach artichoke dip was phenomenal and my husband had the steak which he said was great. Give it a try you won't be disappointed read more

We spent the day at worlds of fun and I literally haven't felt so in need of a piece of fruit or vegetable in forever. The food at the park was nothing but greasy and fried, which isn't all bad, but LAWD I need some greenery after all that. I had the cranberry and walnut salad recommended by Karrie our server. It was light and delish. No bleu cheese for me. The dressing was on the side which I liked so it was fresh and not drowning. Karrie was a gem as well. I ordered hot herbal tea and she brought it out all cute on the plate. She was MOVING too. By moving, I mean serving food at tables, working behind the bar, bussing, and servicing the customers with ease. Totally impressive to see someone be so efficient and have such great customer service without breaking stride. Kudos Karrie! The food was good enough for 3 stars, Karrie got them 4. read more

It's convenient if you are staying there, otherwise, I would go somewhere else, anywhere. You would think a place that has "burger" in the name would pride itself on that, but it was pretty underwhelming (I got the classic cheeseburger). Beer prices are straight up gouge, even at the "happy hour" rate. read more

Boulevard Grill - Says always on tap but .... not now ... so sorry Charlie - American Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Ugh, why can't this place get it right? Simple requests are either ignored or forgotten. This is our 3rd stay here and each time, this restaurant has failed us. I ordered a Caesar wrap, no chicken sub portobello mushroom. Came out with no mushroom...had to wait an extra 10 minutes for it to come out again. During the wait, the waitress offered a drink for the mistake, I ordered a Shirley Temple. The drink was 70% grenadine...totally undeniable. When I finally get upstairs, the wraps were barely held together and when I picked one up, the portobello mushroom just fell out. THEY DIDN'T CHOP THE PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM..JUST THREW IT IN THERE. Seriously, do you throw the entire chicken breast in without cutting it up? This place is a disaster. The last time we stayed here, we ordered room service and they messed up the same order not once, but twice. We waited nearly 1.5 hours for breakfast to come up correct. It was such a disappointment that the hotel comped the food... Sheraton needs to consider shutting this restaurant down, overhauling it, changing the menu and hiring new staff. Not recommended. read more

There aren't many restaurant options around these hotels, so I picked Boulevard Grill. The atmosphere is like a soft-core sports bar with the TVs, but without all of the decorations that come with a sports bar. I ordered the Boulevard Brewing Company's Tropical Pale Ale. I was bummed to see it didn't come out of a tap, but instead was brought to be in a can. Good beer! Don't get me wrong, I just expected this beer (that I thought was a house beer) to be on tap. Service: good =^) I asked how the coleslaw was and the waitress said "it's just colesaw." I LOVE unique coleslaw and appreciated her honesty. I got the fries with my B&B Burger. It's hard to mess up fries ;) The burger was delicious! Love the bleu cheese cheese on it. I highly recommend it. The place is still under renovation, or is still being constricted, I can't tell. There's a big clear sheet blocking off a corner of the restaurant. For me, I'd give 5 stars if the beer was on tap. Call me a Portland beer snob, if you will, but I expected different.

Had to catch a flight but wanted to try KC bbq so we hit the Boulevard that's in an airport hotel. Glad we did. Great service - responsive, knew the menu well, frank, a pleasant guy. Terrific ambiance. Loved the local brews. Not the Boulevard's brews but they were outstanding - tried two, IPA and Pils. Had pulled pork sandwich - surprisingly good for "hotel" barbecue. Wasn't quite as good as a down and dirty pit barbecue joints, but still had something of that smokey, earthy pit flavor & texture that is rare coming out of a full service kitchen. Very good fries. Did not try the brisket but it looked to be at perfect temperature and was certainly fork tender. Well done, folks, coming from a guy who avoids hotel food and especially hotel barbecue. read more

First time here, ordered the French Dip. Very reasonably priced and one of the best I've had!!

The food gets a one star for value. My Caesar salad was lettuce, dressing and half a chicken strip cut up (No cheese and no croutons) but over $10. Breakfast buffet is $14.99 with food quality less then a free continental breakfast you can get at a 2 star hotel. A lot of the food is not fresh. Atmosphere is fine and they have a full bar. Convenient to great a drink or two at the end of the day, but I'd recommend grabbing a bite to eat elsewhere. read more

Stranded without a car at the hotel next door, my wife and I were looking for a place to eat. Boulevard Grill smelled good so we gave it a try. Half the tables were filled and there were two overworked waitresses trying to carry the load. Ok, that's not their fault, right? Blame management. However we sat there for at least 15 minutes before anyone acknowledged we were there! One of the waitress asked if anyone had helped us and we said no (at the 15-20 min. mark!). That delay isn't management's fault. They could've just stopped by right away and said they're very busy but they'll be right with us. She said someone would be with us soon. "Ok" we thought, "they know we're here.". The other waitress walked back and forth past us, never making eye contact. Three parties were seated and waited on and still no help for us. Waitress #2 was clearing tables even though there were plenty of clean tables available. Still no help for us. The first waitress came back and asked if we been helped yet and we still said no so she said she'd be back. After 53 min. our order was taken! 25 min later our hamburger and chicken sandwich arrived! Burger was good and sandwich was ok, but not 1 1/2 hrs good! I can't remember the last time I didn't leave a tip but no way could I leave one in good conscience. Management and stage need improvement to say the least! Good food and the waitress was nice when we finally go to take to her! read more

The Boulevard Grill doesn't have great reviews but I decided to stop in anyway to kill some time before heading to the airport. The service was friendly and fast. They have daily drink specials featuring Boulevard beer and a different mixed beverage daily. I had the brisket entree it was great. No complaints here about service or food! Great hotel restaurant/bar. read more

As mentioned in the other recent reviews, it's inside the Four Points by Sheraton. Not sure what was going on back in 2021 when the service was slow, but expect that was due to the whole virus thing and lack of staff. Tonight the service was excellent, the food very good and the price right. I was waited upon after a short pause after I sat down. Rachel was my excellent server and did a very nice job. My salmon was ready before I finished my salad. In fact, it arrived so quickly I had doubts it was really done, but it tasted excellent and the fries were hot and fresh. My check was prompt, so I was in, served, and out in less than 25', which suited me just fine. Fear no evil if you dine here! read more

Not impressed with this place at all. Lauren took ten minutes to bring creamer after pouring my coffee. I prefer my coffee warm. Thirty five minutes to get breakfast? Seriously? Pretty sure it doesnt take a half an hour to make a couple eggs especially when there were a total of four customers in this place counting us. When I finally asked what was taking so long I was told their waffle iron needs 15 minutes to warm up? That must be why the guys who came after us get served before us. The food, when it finally came was okay. Standard Belgian waffle with packaged strawberry preserves. My eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast were good although my toast was cold. Thought it would be faster to eat here to get to the airport but that was not the case. Lauren did check in on us right as we were leaving and thanked us for coming which was nice. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else if you are looking for a quick, good breakfast. This place seems like it would be much better for just having drinks. read more
