The five-course meal, crafted by a remarkably talented chef using a variety of techniques from their farm, was beautifully executed in a surreal indoor-outdoor setting. Every dish was spectacular, and the beverage pairings were creative and perfectly curated. The owners' labor of love is evident from start to finish, making this a true gem in the Lawrence/Lecompton area. Our guests from Leawood, Kansas said they would gladly make the drive back anytime to experience another one of these magical culinary evenings.

We heard about Burning Barrel and Origin Restaurant from a friend and quickly booked tickets online…read morefor one of their first weekends of service. We were not disappointed. We arrived on the farm (after our Ford GPS took us a wonky route along a few miles of dirt road--so make sure you stay on paved roads and you won't have trouble--I was told by Kristin, our host and one of the owners, that Google Maps has no problem). I have to share our experience in detail because I feel we discovered a new must-visit experience in the KC area! We arrived at the 30-acre farm, parked in the field, and were greeted by our server who welcomed us warmly and offered us an arrival cocktail to sip while we explored the truly lovely grounds, pond, and nearby goats. After our leisurely stroll, we returned to the dining pavilion and found our seats at the gorgeous (and massive!) live-edge dining table along with a menu specifically for this weekend. Our gracious host Kristen and server brought out our first drink pairing, a minted lime seltzer that was refreshing and light. Our first course arrived--Blue Jade cornbread with arugula, sweet pea salad, and chicken liver paté. The cornbread was unlike any I had before and was absolutely delicious. The sweet pea salad was literally bursting with flavor the peas were so fresh and the chicken liver paté out of this world. Such an interesting flavor profile and combination. The next beverage pairing arrived a short time later as we enjoyed the perfect evening, a blackberry purple basil shrub. This drink was also delicious and refreshing (and save that blackberry for last--what a treat!). The Mangalista pig, we were told, is the "wagyu of pork" and the crisp, tasty, marbled pork chop was excellent. It was served with a beet "kimchi" with fennel root and a sheep cheese dumpling that was creamy and flavorful. Finally, our coffees were served and a dessert of yellow squash cake, lemon honey ice cream with mulberry compote was brought to us. Again, the dish was original, delicious, and a perfect ending to our meal. We can't wait to come back and have try a new menu in the future. Such a perfect evening and the chef has such an exciting vision for hyper-local farm-to-table flavors and dishes.

The staff here was very helpful, they were there when you needed them, but not so much that they were in your face all the time. Perfect balance. I had some burnt ends, and they were tasty. I expected to load up on those for the evening, but I decided to try the famous Kansas City rubs I had heard so much about. BAM! I get it now! These ribs put every BBQ rib I have had before now to shame. My tastebuds now understand what ribs should taste like. It was a magical cross between perfection and awesome. I ate until I was ready to split a seam. Absolutely incredible. If you can get yourself here, do it... the food is amazing!

I went with a $8 tasting as I haven't been here before. As for the wine of the 4 I tried I liked the Sweet Lacrosse, it was the perfect amount of sweetness. I really liked the slushies: margarita and piña colada. I wish I lived closer so I could go back to try some of the other wines but as it is I'll make do with searching my local liquor stores.

From the moment we stepped through the doors, we knew we had found the perfect venue. The chapel's absolutely charming, and perfect for photos. The coordinator at Little Shawnee Chapel was an absolute gem. From the initial planning stages to the big day itself, they were incredibly helpful and attentive to every detail, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. It was amazing as it allowed my wife to relax and enjoy every moment with her family who flew in. The chapel itself is timeless. It's super well lit, yet cozy. It provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony, creating an intimate and romantic ambiance that our guests loved. PLUS, the neighboring space allowed extra room for our guests to grab refreshments before and after the ceremony, which other smaller venues in town definitely didn't offer. We can't thank everyone enough for making our wedding day truly special. If you're looking for a venue with charm, character, and exceptional service, look no further than Little Shawnee Chapel. Highly recommended!!!

I am writing to provide an update regarding my experience with repairs at Treadway at New Trails as…read moreof today, July 6, 2026. My primary concern is the recurring issue with the hot water supply; this is now the fourth instance where I have had no hot water, or the supply has failed after only ten minutes. Despite submitting a formal complaint nine days ago, the assurance that a maintenance ticket would be created was apparently not followed through. Earlier today, a maintenance technician adjusted the heating settings on the water heater. He stated that simultaneous use of the dishwasher and shower may lower the water temperature and that the system requires time to recover after multiple items run at once. Given the frequency of this issue, I remain concerned about the reliability of the supply. Regarding other maintenance matters: - Washing Machine: While this issue was resolved through the installation of a new unit, the machine was out of service for over a month. I previously received an apology explaining that the delay was due to the original appliance being under a new construction warranty. - Mold: I have received an initial response regarding the mold concerns as it relates to another tenant's apartment. - Office Access: I attempted to follow up in person today, July 6, 2026, but the office internet and computer systems were down. Due to these persistent delays and the recurring nature of the hot water issues, I have discussed the possibility of terminating my lease. My lease outlines clear steps regarding work orders and response times, and I expect the complex to adhere to these rules as I consistently pay my rent before the due date. Furthermore, an apology is insufficient for these repeated failures. If I were to pay my rent late, I would be charged late fees; similarly, you should provide compensation for failing to address work orders within a reasonable timeframe. You should not be able to remain nine days late on repairs and offer only an apology, as that does not provide the service I am paying for. While I value my neighbors and find the community itself to be positive, I am looking for a feasible, long-term resolution. You got three stars lets work on five stars. I loved this place when I first moved in now show some love back and do the right thing. I look forward to your response regarding the hot water and mold issues.

I moved into treadway 2 years ago and from the beginning had issues. It was a brand new apartment…read moreso I had high hopes that things would be well managed and well, new. It was learned very quickly that with it being so new, all management cared about was making advertisements look good. I was never able to get ahold of Jennifer, instead I'd see her editing pictures of herself for their Facebook account to scam more people into coming in. They made it a big thing to seem like a community and I do believe some utilized that but if you're looking to just mind your own business, they aren't much help to you with basic needs. I had to call multiple times every few months to get my air filter cleaned. I made a big deal the first time as they brushed it off even though my air filter was completely black and clearly had not been changed since the unit was built. Our dishwasher stopped working - it took forever to get to the root of the problem and the "solution" was the maintenance worker coming in, pulling the washer out and pressing on the top of it with all his body weight to bend the washer into working? It didn't. Our rent when we first moved in was significantly cheaper then it was after the second year when they gave us renewal forms. It was an actual joke to see how much they wanted to charge for a single apartment unit in Gardner.. I'm not living in a 3 story town house in a much more populated area with tons of good food, entertainment, etc, all while still being in a very safe spot in the Olathe/lenexa area. Our rent is a few hundred dollars cheaper than an apartment in Gardner. Again a complete joke. Save your money, save your time. All they care about it looking good on their Facebook posts and seemingly like a fun place to live. I will note - while it was hard to get maintenance out and problems were never always solved, they were always nice. But it was very clear to me that the office had an issue with me as I could hear the change in tone when I told them who I was. I refuse to apologize for their neglect to an issue. I'm just the type to continue to call you on it till you fix it.. I could go on and on about this place
