We had a lovely tour of J. Rieger distillery today. Joe was our tour guide. He was amazing!…read more The tour started with a 10 minute movie about the history of KC, the distillery and older businesses. The tour was full of interesting information and history. We enjoyed the details and descriptions of the distillery operations. The rick house was impressive. We finished with a tasting of four spirits. The vodka, gin, Kansas City whiskey and coffee liqueur. All were excellent. J. Rieger is the top distillery in the metro, for sure. Highest quality. They even have a spiral slide from the restaurant down to the bottom floor. We enjoyed the tasting room and cocktails outside where we could hear music from Knuckleheads next door. We'd go again and bring more people. So much fun!!

J.Reigers Monogram lounge is something I've only ever had drinks at until last night. They have…read moresuch a beautifully inviting bar with some excellent bartenders and cocktails. The horsefeather is a must try! The space is really open and caters to the events they host there from time to time. We sat an one of their half circle booths with green velvet which really set the vibe. I ordered the flat iron steak which comes with a delicious cream sauce and an incredible peppercorn rub seasoning. I ordered it medium rare and it came out perfect, very juicy and perfect doneness. I was surprised that it was such a small steak though, easily a 6oz steak. The fingerling potatoes were also truly incredible, soft and seasoned with something that is truly addicting tasting! My partner ordered the fried green tomato sandwich and she had only rave reviews about it. Service was excellent, our server was knowledgeable about the menu and especially the cocktails. They have a sort of small menu but gives one just enough options and I will say definitely something for most everyone.

After we were sat our Server Amelia greeted us with menus and water. We asked for a few minutes to check out the menu, it had changed a bit since we were in the last time. We settled on a Pretzel with cheese to share and a couple cocktails-I cannot remember the name but they were light and very refreshing! My sister and I thought the pretzel was a bit over cooked but the pickles were absolutely amazing, so much so I asked for more-they make them in house, I was told by Amelia. It was pretty chill there. It wasn't too crowded at 3:30 when we went. Service was great and props to Amelia for informing us that 18% gratuity is added automatically because of FIFA. When you leave there is a slide that you can go down to get you to the main level-which is the way I love to go. I gave a 4 star because some of my favorites were taking off the HH Menu(Apps) and the added gratuity(FIFA) service was fantastic

Came here for an event on the other side. I grabbed the Smashburger and the Smash Fries, and I made…read morethe Smashburger a double. So I'll say that the Double Smash Burger is a three out of five from a standpoint of how much food you get. Definitely gives you the quantity of food, but from a quality standpoint, the bun didn't really speak to me. The seasoning of the burger didn't really speak to me, nor did the sauce on it. It was okay, it was just okay from that standpoint. So when you talk about the fries, I also say that it's a three out of five. The sauce is good. The crunch of the waffle fry is there. They're not overcooked or undercooked or anything like that, but they just don't give, oh my God, if you will. The chopped up smash burger isn't really chopped up as much as you would think. It's more of a patty with a couple chops where it needed to be more thoroughly chopped and spread across, if you will. It's definitely filling. They do not skimp you when it comes down to the quantity of food, but the quality of the flavor just doesn't make me say, "Heck yeah, I want to order that again." The experience, the area, the seating, the atmosphere, the live music, all of that is absolutely there. You can't take that away from the location. From a standpoint, if I have to run and tell everybody to try this food, that just wasn't there, and the prices weren't ridiculous either. I'm not going to say that they knock you over the head for the amount of food or for the food itself, but that's my experience. If you've never been here, you should definitely go check out the live music and check out the space. It's definitely a fun place to be out in the open, breathing clean air. Give it a try.

You order food and drinks from separate trailers and sit outdoors on comfy sofas or tables strewn throughout. The drink trailer has their signature cocktails available plus what they fall freezes. I tried the rotating freeze which is made with vodka and various citrus flavors. It was cold and tart and super refreshing on a hot afternoon. They have some great happy hour deals from 3-6pm as well! A member of my group ordered from the food trailer and I tried some of her fries and they were fresh, nicely salted, and beer battered. Super delicious and I didn't even need a dipping sauce. I would love to come back here and try some more options and lucky for me it's less than 2 miles from where I work.

We were in search of mac & cheese, so doing a quick search led me to Two Birds, and we settled here…read moresince my goal was to try more new places this year. When we arrived, it was a little quiet, so we sat at the bar. The two bartenders working were welcoming. One of them asked if we were there to eat, handed us menus, and then let us know what wasn't in stock. It was a little weird that they were out of chicken quarters, pasta salad (or was it potato?), burgers (maybe that's a testament to their popularity), and bacon... Thankfully, the mac & cheese was available, so the mission wasn't a fail. The plus was that it came with a side of fries, and not just any-- they were seasoned sidewinder fries, for those of you who are fans of thicker potatoes. I had the Italian po-boy, which I really enjoyed. I thought they constructed it well, and the spicy relish wasn't too much heat if you're worried about that. It was definitely the right amount of food, too. I was able to clean the plate and not regret the last bite. At this point, they've been open for 8 months, so I think they've worked out the kinks, but we also showed up on a Wednesday night, so service was great and attentive. It might be different on weekends, but I'd come back to try more things on the food menu.

This is my second visit to Knuckleheads for a concert. The last time I went it was probably six or…read moreseven years ago before I even lived in Kansas City. Recently, I went to the Knuckleheads Garage to see the Texas Headhunters, which is a newer band featuring my favorite guitar player and singer Ian Moore. The experience was pretty great from start to finish. I was able to buy a ticket online and save it to my Apple wallet. It was super easy to get in. Parking was on-site and plentiful. They had a great opening act that was a local band from Kansas City. I liked that the drinks were affordable and super cold. I got a tall Quirk for $8. Beers were similarly priced. Later in the evening, I got hungry and scored a hotdog for six dollars. The whole place is cash only. Be advised you will not tap to pay. They have an ATM on site if you need cash. The concert was fantastic! The band was amazing and I was very pleased with the experience. There's a large seating area with tables and chairs in the middle of the venue and on the north side there are rows of old airline or bus seats with cupholders that are amazing. You are even welcome to go down into the pit without an extra special kind of ticket The sound was great and not too loud, it was very clear and clean, the lights were well done and they even had robotic video cameras with someone mixing the video on screen and out in the bar area so you didn't have to miss what was happening. The restrooms were clean and nice. The whole thing was a great experience. I will most certainly be returning to Knuckleheads for live music!!

I had the Estrella, which comes with passion fruit sorbet on top of sparkling wine and nicta (corn liquor). It was interesting, but once the sorbet melted into the drink, it mostly just tasted like sorbet. Good, just not very "cocktail-forward." My husband had the Jade Jaguar, which was tasty -- probably a solid 7/10. Our friend ordered the Oaxacan, which ended up being the table favorite: smoky, slightly sweet, and really well balanced. We only tried a couple of snacks. The chicharrones were a highlight -- warm, crispy, and absolutely delicious. The bar nuts, however, weren't a favorite. Overall, it's a great spot if you're looking for something different and visually/atmospherically special. The music is great but a bit loud, so it's not ideal for long conversations or group hangouts. We didn't try the food menu beyond snacks, but based on the experience, I'd still recommend it for drinks and vibes.
