Gorgeous New Music Venue with friendly Staff, and an Amazing Music Experience…read more When you arrive and depart, parking is a challenge, but there are a lot of parking staff that are patient and direct you in and guide you out. There is one main road in and one main road out. It took about 45 minutes to leave the parking lot after the show, similar to arrowhead.... if you're inpatient, leave before every else. The food is gourmet ball park style and is priced accordingly. I ordered a Mosh burger ( double cheeseburger and Fries ). They had all the food prepared and under heat lamps. The Burger was great, but the fries had been under the heat lamp for awhile. I got there early, so there were no lines. The concession staff, merch table staff and security were all happy to be there and are friendly. The seats and Lawn Look Great, but I'm there for the show and i like to be as close as possible.

Who closes a park because it's cold out?! I'm pretty sure people still leave their homes and spend time outside when the temps dip below 50 degrees. I emailed them to try to find some logical explanation, but no one has responded yet. Why spend all that money to create a beautiful park, then shut it down for half the year?! In the meantime, my dog and I sit and stare out at our park through my window on this beautiful, sunny day and wish we could go run around. Poor Boomer will now have to settle for a drive to dusty Penn Valley. UPDATE: Ok, I'm going to settle in the middle of 5 stars and 1 star. While this park gets major props for its (usual) cleanliness and location, I still can't get over the fact that 1. the bathrooms (that they spent who-knows-how-much-$$-on just to be able to open in the first place) are NEVER unlocked and the water fountain NEVER works, and 2. they close this park from October - April for winter.

We looked at over a dozen venues in the Kansas City area and just knew from the moment we walked in that this was THE space. It is truly a Kansas City gem with wood flooring, high beams with Edison bulbs, brick walls, and beautiful staircases. A huge standout for us was they only have one event per weekend, so we had the space from Friday (when we moved all of our necessities in) to 4:00 on Sunday ( when we moved back out). The wedding party truly enjoyed preparing with hair, make-up, and wardrobe on the gorgeous third floor, the cocktail hour was on the first level, and dinner and dance were on the second level. Everything was perfect. When you book the Oliver, you get the peace of mind of the owner Steve and the event coordinator Caitlin. We met with Caitlin on multiple occasions and she was amazing. They have a great bartending staff, parking attendants, and security guards, and a great working rapport with many local vendors. If I had to touch on any drawbacks, it would just be the gravel parking lots, which can be a bit of a challenge with ladies in heels or elderly persons. We were a little concerned with it being haunted house season but this was not an issue at all. Overall, we could not be more thrilled with our experience and I would give it more stars if I could! An absolute ten out of ten!

All the food served was cold, however.

They also have a décor closet with leftover centerpieces, sequin runners, etc. that you can use, which saved us a lot of money! The food is AMAZING. We went with a 3 protein buffet (rotisserie chicken, roast beef carving station, salmon) with salad, rolls, and 2 sides. It was AMAZING-- easily the best wedding food I've ever had. Another bonus with TTOG is that they offer two day-of coordinators, which I couldn't have appreciated more. A few weeks before the wedding, we met with Emad to set a timeline for the night so that everything moved along smoothly as the night progressed. I dropped all my decor off (and a list of the ones I wanted to use from their supply) the week of the wedding, and they do all of the set up and tear down for us! Everything looked perfect the night of. We don't have a single complaint about the venue, Emad or Maggie, or the bar/serving staff. If anything went wrong, Emad or Maggie took care of it and we didn't notice a thing! For the price, they offered a lot more than any other venues downtown that we looked at, and came in at our projected budget. I cannot say enough nice things about TTOG and would 100% recommend them to another couple.
