    Fried lobster
    Huy T.

    The steak was okay, not great. Deep fried lobster was good, not great. The bourbon bread pudding was amazing. Service was amazing. Ambience was modern and intimate without trying too hard. Overall, a good experience.

    Burger with onion rings
    Deena M.

    First time trying this place and would come back. The burger was cooked as ordered and the onion rings were hot and crunchy. The sauce was a little spicier that I would normally do so might get that on the side next time. I would not recommend pickle spears on a burger. Although they were tasty they shoot right out the side. Staff was attentive and informative but not overwhelming. I also liked the light up bar.

    Had reservations for KVH Chophouse, came in early and was promptly seated at the bar so I wouldn't be left standing waiting. The servers at the bar were excellent in service and make a mean mint julep. Shortly after my time at the bar I was escorted to my table and again the service was professional and acted quickly. Live music was playing and it was jazz, piano and cello. Menu items ordered were the Deviled eggs, which I highly recommend, the Prime rib, wedge salad, and chicken cordon bleu. Only criticism is the crust on the the prime rib was on the saltier side.

    Celebrated my husband's birthday and this was our first time as well. Overall the experience was good and it's nice to have a more elevated dining spot in Wichita. I won't lie, I've been to 1587 Prime in Kansas City and have done a fair amount of travel to large destination cities with upscale dining so it's difficult to fully put those places out of mind while dining in Wichita. That being said: Ambiance: like any elevated dining restaurant it was dark, intimate. Each table has a small lamp which was appreciated because sometimes these places can be TOO dark. The decor felt slightly dated to me but honestly a lot of these newer restaurants have all started throwing it back to older styles-- almost a callback to old Vegas or New York. Booths with tall wingbacks, live piano players, and generous displays of wine bottles. There is not a dress code listed on the website but on the door of the restaurant it suggests you dress nice and there wasn't anyone there dressed casually while we were there. Food: Sort of a mixture of everything. There didn't seem to be any one particular theme although much of the food was very rich. I do think I agree with one other review I've seen where they could probably do with just a couple more lighter options. Don't look for salt and pepper at the table (although it is available), as that is usually an indication of how confident a restaurant is in it's ability to season their food to perfection. Calamari - forgot to take a pictures of most of the dishes (rookie move, but we were hungry) but it was perfectly breaded, not fishy or rubbery, and came with a flavorful aoili and spicy green dipping sauce similar to a salsa Verde. Spinach artichoke dip - really great. But honestly, that's difficult to ruin but I could tell the ingredients were quality. The portion was generous and the chips were crisp. I wish it had come with crostini as well but that's honestly just a personal preference. Strip steak with bearnaise, mashed potatoes, and asparagus - my husband's meal. He said he was fantastic. I didn't try it. His steak appeared to be cooked to correct temperature as well. The portion sizes for the sides are generous as well and definitely could be shared. Prime rib and lobster mac and cheese - I had mixed feelings about this. One other reviewer said it was too salty and I actually tend to oversalt my food so I knew this wouldn't be an issue for me. The outside layer, yes-- it is salty but I do feel like the creamy horse radish does an excellent job toning it down. I don't think it is so salty that it's inedible at all. I liked it personally. The au jus was rich just like an au jus should be. The middle portion of the prime rib was somehow underseasoned. No salt at all. The au jus didn't really save it because it was a thick cut steak so as you're chewing it was fairly bland. If they somehow figured out how to get the flavoring consistent throughout it would've been perfect because otherwise the portion was huge, it was cooked perfectly, and it cut well. The mac and cheese was also very rich. The noodles were cooked perfectly and not mushy. There was actually a very generous amount of lobster. I do think it was just the tiniest bit on the overcooked side but I ate it anyway. The cheese was in abundance. At the end of the meal they recognized my husband's birthday with a complimentary piece of chocolate cake. It was borderline frozen so you could tell this is likely just a sheet cake they perhaps buy in bulk cheaply so they can give out for special occasions but you know what, the sentiment was nice regardless. Would I go back? Sure. It's nice to have another finer dining option in Wichita for special occasions. Truly no make or break critiques here. Overall: 3.9/5

    The food is really outstanding! Every dish we had was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. I really suggest the steak bites. It's under the appetizer section but you can do it as a meal then get a side Caesar salad! Hands down, some of the most delicious food I've eaten lately! Great to hang out and catch up with the girls and listen to great piano music! Our waitress Meaghan was so great! We love her.

    Crab cakes
    Clarrisa L.

    Well, I was a little skeptical to come here because I have heard so many mixed reviews, but it did not disappoint!! As a frequent traveler who often bases trips around places we want to eat, I have a lot of fine dining experience. Our experience was close to exceptional! First off our server Maddie was fantastic!!! One of the best I've ever had anywhere. And our food was absolutely mouthwatering, cooked to perfection tonight. We started with crab cakes, which surprisingly rivaled my favorite in Seattle. We shared a Caesar salad, and had the warm buttery bread. I had the steak bites medium well with the whipped potatoes with Demi glaze, which was phenomenal. My spouse had the filet, lobster Mac and cheese and twice baked potatoes. He loved his steak, and he's not easy to impress in that department. His only complaint was the twice baked seemed slightly overcooked. But dang, we were blown away with how quality the food was! Excellent night celebrating our Anniversary. Oh and we did get the carrot cake which we definitely enjoyed but had to take to go because we were stuffed. Also, we were treated to a fantastic piano player who took requests. And we loved the atmosphere and attention to detail in the dining room setup. Highly recommend! Let's keep this place open Wichita!

    Cesar salad
    juanita R.

    Went here tonight for our Anniversary dinner. I will say we have found our new favorite special occasion and place! This gem is neatly tucked away in the neighborhood and it needs to be on your list! It gives an old Hollywood/Speak Easy feel from the black walls and the old school charm. All the tables are very neat and there is a great use of the black with ample lighting. We were given a glass of Prosecco, because it was our Anniversary. They have Happy Hour from 4-6 and we each had a cocktail, I had a mango mojito and my husband had a smoked old fashioned. Very nice presentation! We had the Crab Cakes for an appetizer and let me tell you, I could've eaten 4 plates of those! We ordered a side salad, I had Caesar and husband ordered the chopped wedge. Nice size portion and both were good! We were given bread and a very nice whipped herb butter, that was very good! We both ordered the Broiled Lobster with whipped potatoes and broccoli. Presentation was on point! The lobster was cooked perfectly and the whipped potatoes were very tasty! Now we couldn't leave without dessert, but we did ask for it to go! I got the carrot cake, minus the Carmel drizzle. Hubby got the Triple Chocolate Cake. Very large slices! We both tasted them when we were home and they both are worth writing home about! I'm always looking for a good home made carrot cake and now I have found it! Service was excellent! Definitely recommend and next time I think I'll try the filet

    Garry!! Everyone loves him!

    As my friends and I frequently join together for cocktails and appetizers, we enjoy a range of experiences including the dynamic and super personable staff and bartenders. We love them all, Trinity is lovely in her demeanor.. This is the place for classic and sophisticated ambiance with local community, warmth and great lighting for pics!

    The food was great and equally great service. Ask for one of Trinity McCarroll tables. Live music is always a nice added bonus.

    Does KVH have adequate parking?

    No. They made their parking lot too small. There are always cars parked on the grass between KVH and Casey's gas station.

Any business with a…read moreliquor license can sell *beer*, but being able to sample from all corners of the country helps me appreciate the differences and subtle specialities of brewers everywhere. Do you get down with lagers or ales? Do you prefer malt over hop? What about heavier varieties, like Belgian trippels or imperial stouts? Whatever you fancy, Rob's World of Beer likely has something to scratch that itch. Sure, there are local beers represented, like Wichita Brewing Company or Flying Monkey, but there's also regional offerings from Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, and more. Plus nation-wide craft offerings, such as brews from Oregon, where the hops are fresh on fresh, or New England, where the IPAs have that special bite. The selection is vast and the options are only limited by what you can carry and, well, how much you wish to spend. If you don't like the idea of buying a 4- or 6-pack and being unsure of your enjoyment, Rob's also has singles in the cooler that allows you to build your own array of beers.. Singles are arranged by style, such as sours, IPAs, or pilsners and 6-pack carriers are ready for you to fill. The service is quick to answer your questions or even make suggestions once they know your preferences. Tall shelves, lined with options, plus a walk-in for large quantity purchases (mostly national brand), and the singles cooler make for a fabulous beer destination.
