The Pitch Sandwich Week 2025 This review is based solely on…read moremy experience eating this sandwich special. Taste 5/5 Price 5/5 (1/2 off for sandwich week original $14.99) "The Wise Guy" An Italian delight of epic proportions, this sandwich lived up to expectations of being a stellar spectacle between two slices of bread. If your mouth waters at the prospect of Italian meats being inside of it then this is the guy for you. I definitely would pay full price for this bad boy! Who knew Kelly's had a kick butt sandwich shop slanging mad good meals in there?! Not I...I only thought they served soggy 'za. Now I'll definitely be back to the walk up window to order this packed Italian stallion, it was stuffed with mortedella, spicy capicola, prosciutto, and pepperoni and salami and they don't skimp on the meat piles here. Also, the spicy vinegar zing from the pickled Giardiniera was so satisfying with the oily Italian sub dressing. I wouldn't change anything about this sandwich especially with your choice of Guys chips on the side- kettle cooked or onion and chive are the only choices appropriate...add those chips to the sandwich and you've just blasted off into a texture territory that's unparalleled. Can you tell I'm still thinking of this Wise Guy a few weeks later? He really made an impression, eh?

I was at a happy hour with the girls (at Kelly's) when I got pretty famished. Turns out heading to…read morehappy hour without eating anything since 11am is not advised. At any rate, I hadn't been to Kelly's since Joe's closed down and my memories of Joe's were that it was OK, but not really much to write home about. I asked some of my pals what their thoughts were on Guy's pizza and next thing I knew I was in line for a slice. Honestly, it might not be the very best pizza in town but it was really pretty tasty. I enjoyed every last bite of my slice, and when my husband texted to see if I could snag dinner for him on the way home, I just went ahead and ordered a whole 'za for the family. I will say, for some reason the slice tasted better to me than the slice I had from the whole pie I bought, but overall, I'd for sure eat here again. It's convenient, and worlds better than what was here previously.

This place ranks in my top ten sandwich shops of all time. My boss suggested we go here and I…read morewasn't at all hesitant, because I'm a sandwich girl through and through. But this place exceeded my expectations. I will definitely back to try every dish, but for the first go around, I had the goldilox and it will be hard not to just order that every time I return (But for my Yelp community, of course I will switch it up). Smoked salmon with a nice slab of cream cheese, complimented perfectly by cucumber and onion - you just can't go wrong. To top it off, the bagel-like bread (what they're known for) with the crispy shell and soft inside was everything I ever wanted and more. Service was quick - no complaints there. While you're waiting in line, they offer cute Bay Boy postcards (for free!) so between the souvenir and the food, there's no way you'll forget about them.

As a general rule, I stay away from crowded areas like the Plaza and Westport, but I really wanted…read moreto try this place out. As luck would have it, I had to run an errand near the area and my decision was made. First off, the entrance isn't where you'd think it would be. The order window was closed and I noticed people going up to the deck to get in, so up I headed. The place was actually spacious and comfortable, it has a Caribbean vibe to it. After much consternation, I figured I'd make it tough on them and opted for the Reuben. As some somebody who has had many Reubens at the place where they were invented, Omaha's Blackstone Hotel, I can be a tough judge. This is definitely the best place to get one in KC, so I know that I'll be back for more. I even liked the bread that they used, it set it apart from other sammiches. And the service was great, so I'll be back.

The person assisting me was friendly, knowledgeable, and had a passion for steak. I picked up a couple of the T-Bone steaks. He said they were exceptionally tender and would fall off the bone. As an extra service I was given some of their house rub. I seasoned the steaks with the rub and dry aged them for only 3 hours. I put them on my charcoal grilled, and cooked them medium rare. They were the best steaks I have ever had in my life. They seared perfectly and I will only buy my high end steak from this place in Kansas City from now on!

I've been wanting to try Paris Bahn Mi for quite a while so I decided to finally stop in. The…read morebuilding is quite large and they have decent parking. I attempted to order online but they shut down online ordering fairly early-it was well before closing, so I headed there to order. The individual who assisted me was friendly and the restaurant seemed very clean. They have cute decor. I did take my order to go because it was getting close to close and I didn't want to be that person. I ordered a ton of things. Eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach but I don't mind leftovers. I started with a couple of appetizers. The first being the sugarcane shrimp patties: Shrimp patties delicately wrapped around sticks of sugarcane, presenting a harmonious blend of savory seafood notes. They come three to an order and were interesting. I liked the texture of the shrimp patties and they did have a good flavor. Would I get it again? Maybe. I also tried the fried lobster balls. Those come 5 to an order and were exactly what they said-fried balls of lobster. They were also good but they have several other appetizers so I would probably opt to try a few more things out. They have Korean corn dogs and because I've never had one, I decided that needed to change. I ordered the potato half and half-half dog, half cheese. It was huge. Like way bigger than I thought. I liked the potato outside, it was crispy and tasted like a giant French fry. Lots of cheese and the dog was a dog. I don't regret getting it but I would have to be in the mood to get one again. It was fun though. My favorite item was the grilled pork croissant: butter mayo, house sauce, jalapeño, cucumber, and cilantro with pickled radish and carrot. It was so good and what I will definitely return for. The pork had great flavor, the veg was a crunchy, refreshing flavor and the croissant was so flaky and delicious. My only complaint is that it got a little soggy on the way home but I popped it in the oven and voila! First world problem solved. Highly recommend. Finally, I had to get a boba tea. I went with the mango milk tea base and added mango popping boba. It was refreshing and delicious. I like that you can really customize your drink. I had a sip of a Thai tea with brown sugar boba and that will be what I get in the future. So good. I will definitely return and I highly recommend that you try it out.

I'm not sure if the star of the show is the amazing hot dogs or Morty himself. The tiny trailer…read morethat Morty has set up at 43rd and Stateline has barely enough room for a person, let alone a functioning kitchen, but it is pumping out some mighty tasty offerings. Morty not only welcomed me, but asked my name, what I did for a living, and how satisfied I was with my job within the first minute of meeting. A natural at conversation and customer service skills - my new best friend that I had never met. While he prepared my dogs, I asked him about the "ripper" sauce that is on the menu. Not only did I get a sample of his handmade recipe, but the origin story of how he discovered it while serving in the military in Germany. It was a sweet / tangy mustard and onion concoction that I will definitely order on my next trip if it's available on his rotating menu at that time. My Chicago Dog and Chili Cheese Dogs were perfection. The Chicago Dog had all the proper fresh ingredients with a Vienna Beef dog and a soft poppy seed bun. With one bite I was transported back to my frequent Chicago Dog lunches when living in Chicago almost 30 years ago. The Chili cheese dog was just as magical with a creamy warm cheese sauce between the soft bun and dog and then covered in a no-bean saucy meat chili...just as God intended. Morty's is only open 7 hours a week - 11:00am - 1:20pm W, TH & FR, so plan accordingly and go meet my new best friend and get a couple of life's simple all-American pleasures.

This is the real deal! Go get yourself some dogs!!

Been going to Planet Subs for as long as I can remember and they still hit pretty often!…read more I went on a busy night recently and they've really pared things down. It's almost strictly carryout and best to order ahead of time online. Went with the turkey club (always) and it was made well with tons of turkey on it. Could've used some more mayo but it was all good. The prices are around $15 with tax and tip but what isn't these days? That seems to be the new going rate for sandwiches. My family doesn't really like the subs here so this is a quick staple when I'm on my own for dinner or out running around!

My wife and I came to the Plaza location today for a weekend celebration. We picked Banksia weeks…read moreago because we wanted a pleasant, low-key brunch to celebrate. Unfortunately, we never even ate. After ordering, I grabbed some water and immediately noticed spider webs and a dried up dead spider on the water dispenser. My intention was simply to let the two ladies at the counter know so it could be cleaned in a discrete manner. I'm actually thankful Banksia has an open kitchen because my wife then noticed an employee preparing a to-go order while handling ready-to-eat food, including prepared fresh greens, with bare hands. Then, while requesting a refund, I noticed an open gallon of milk sitting out without a lid that had been sitting there since the customer behind us had ordered. At that point, we decided we no longer felt comfortable eating there and happy that we asked for a refund before our food was prepared. One employee handled the refund and seemed caught off guard. She responded, "I know, we've been busy" when I addressed the milk being left out without a lid on the counter. I replied, "Being busy should not compromise sanitation." I was completely prepared to take my refund and move on with my day. Then the other employee behind the counter said, "You can just take your refund and go somewhere else." That single comment changed the entire experience. What disappointed me wasn't just what we observed. It was how the sanitation concerns were dismissed and met with doubling down. A simple, "Thank you for bringing that to our attention. We'll take care of it," would have completely changed the outcome. Instead, we left feeling like we were the problem for speaking up. I hope this was an off day but judging by the spider webs in a low-access, high-touch area like the water station, it tells me it's the norm.

It's a seamless and quick ordering experience, and you'll walk out with your lunch, a canned Coke for later, a pastry and a coffee. For the girlies always in a rush, I found your next stop. I got a turkey cranberry sandwich and the bread was the star, perfectly sweet and soft. This is a hard flavor combo to find, and they executed it so well and refreshingly. A little less mayo and more cranberry would be my only tip. All sandwiches come with chips too! I didn't try a pastry, but next time I absolutely will! Not pictured was a pumpkin cream cheese loaf, it looked amazing Thank you to the staff, they were so kind and made this first-visit very enjoyable. :)
