This was my first time stopping in here even though I have driven by a ton of times and said I…read moreshould. I ordered the bacon cheese burger pizza. There is a lot of red sauce for the base, I would have liked the onions to be precooked to soften them up it made the flavor a bit over powering. I would have also liked if the bacon was actual bacon strips that were then broken up instead of bacon bits it would have boosted the flavor. I will say if you are looking for a pizza for the next day this is one of the best pizzas I have found for the next day. I would definitely go back and try some of their other options.

The Margarita and K-7 Kombo pizzas were great. The kid's personal pizzas were a good value…read more Actually, the food in general had reasonable pricing. Service was nearly immediate when we walked in and our drinks were filled as quickly. So the restaurant nails food and service, but the first thing I noticed, however, is the atmosphere. My daughter said it reminded her of Wall-E's home. Some will love this eclectic ambiance some may hate it. The real issue is the broken down nature of so many items (Bathroom fixtures, games, and alcohol cooler). It gave me pause. Glad I stayed. On closer look this place is great for families with kids. Many tables have TV's, which work out well while you wait for the pizza's to cook. So I will give this place four stars but only because of the state of the environment. I recommend you try this place and hope management can improve first impressions so they don't lose customers before they discover the great flavor.

Do I recommend this Minsky's, or any of them? Of course!…read more It's a well-known brand in KC and for good reason. Minsky's is serving up outstanding pies, loaded with whatever toppings you wish, mixed with a signature cheese blend, and have been doing so for nearly 50 years. Their locations are sprinkled all across the metro area and chances are very good that there's one right near you. My local Minsky's (Shawnee) has just remodeled, expanding their space while maintaining their outstanding pizza and great service. The bar area has been expanded so that there is a U-shaped seating area with double the capacity for those that just want to pony up for a drink. Tons of TVs line the space, generally tuned to some type of sportsball whether local or otherwise. Great sightlines, great seating, and excellent bar selection. Obviously, the pizza is the hook. But Minsky's has that pizzeria vibe, you know, when we actually used to eat pizza at the place that it was made before delivery was constantly a thing. Dine-in or carry out, you'll get a signature pie: the crust is unique, the sauce is robust, and every pizza is able to hold the toppings without flopping downward. Minsky's always has curbside pick up, and tip well for those young folks that are coming out to bring you your order. It's a local business that has built and maintained a solid reputation, not only through their outstanding pizza, but through their service and their brand. Get there!

It just didn't taste like it had much flavor- and this may sound odd but there were no little specks in it to make me think that seasoning was used!

There's bar seating, lots of tables and booths, and even an upstairs area. The restaurant is clean and the service was great. The individuals who were working were really engaging and seemed to have built a great rapport with some of the regulars. I didn't get any food on this visit but I plan to on a future visit. I really just popped in for a happy hour beer. They concisely have a good tap list filled with lots of local and unique craft beer. They knock a couple bucks off the price of craft beer during happy hour which is 3-6 daily. They also offer half priced cheese bread and even a slice and pint deal which is like 10 or 11ish dollars (as of July 2026). The happy hour is definitely worth stopping in for and I'll definitely be back to order some food in the future.

I navigated my way through the entrance and was relieved to find the whole foyer rigged with stickers--always a promising sign. The bar area delivered exactly what I needed since shipping out from the dive bar capital of the world: a long-beaten-to-hell counter with beautiful chaos anchored everywhere. Seated near the open kitchen, I caught one of the cooks lamenting a customer who wouldn't heed his wisdom on the economic alternative--that's the mark of a crew that knows their craft. The bartender, a properly insubordinate young mate, greeted me with genuine warmth, worked fast, and tossed the menu with just the right amount of swagger. The offerings were solid, and I was torn between pizza and the large Marge, but I set my compass for a burger instead. It arrived exactly as described--perfect. This place is plunder for people like me.
