Stockhill is easy to find, right across from the library, with plenty of parking within a block or two -- and they offer valet, which is a nice touch you don't see everywhere. The vibe is upscale but not stuffy. The lounge seating area is comfortable and great for casual conversation, and the specialty cocktails are excellent -- worth ordering a few just to try different ones. Service was outstanding throughout, attentive without being intrusive. Will dent your checkbook, but not too bad. Overall a great spot for drinks and easy conversation with friends. Would go back. read more

Four of us had dinner on a weeknight. Our round table was roomy; I liked that. But we were very far away. Weird thumping from music. And bit stuffy air. We started with the crab cakes, stockfeller baked oysters, and roasted squash & burrata, and break bread (basket) to split. The bread was amazing and I loved the butter. The oysters were not hot; they offered to redo them but I declined since more food was coming. The vegetarian at the table loved the roasted squash! The crab cakes were very good with hunks of crab. I had the ribeye medium rare. For sides we split the Brussels, crab and lobster risotto. Everything was good. For dessert I had the fancy Nancy sundae but substituted salted caramel ice cream for the vanilla ice cream. Yummy! Service was excellent. read more

In Kansas City, known as the "Cow Capital," this is said to be one of the best steakhouses. The food was indeed excellent, and it's not far from the Nelson-Atkins Museum--a very satisfying meal after a day of watching! Let's Break Bread: Although the table bread wasn't free, paying $10 for it was definitely worth it. The bread sizzles on the hot plate, brushed with a thin layer of honey, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, a perfect combination of heat, sweetness, fluffiness, and aroma. The dressing was local honey rosemary butter, with a hint of rosemary fragrance and primarily a rich, buttery flavor. After starving for half a day at the museum, this was absolutely perfect. Berry Rose: A very creative salad. Blackberries and blackcurrants offered a refreshing sweetness, sourness, and fruity aroma, while the olive oil with mint and lime was cool and bright. The roasted pistachio crumbs provided a crunchy texture and nutty aroma. The goat cheese was just a light touch, very pleasant. Prime Black Angus Ribeye: My colleague chose the medium well. Medium would have been more suitable for me, but even so, the meat wasn't tough or dry, indicating the steak's quality and the cooking time were excellent. However, the Fresh Herb Chimichurri was basically just olive oil flavor; it lacked the expected lemon acidity and chili flake aroma, let alone any sense of removing the greasiness. Moroccan Lamb: Also in medium well, the lamb chops had more fat, resulting in more tender meat, more juice, and absolutely no gamey taste. The classic grenadine syrup, with added lemon, wasn't overly sweet or stale, but rather had a bright sweet and sour flavor. The accompanying "Potato Lyonnaise" tasted like just ordinary fried small potatoes. Fundue Whipped Yukons: Literally black-truffle-flavored mashed potatoes with a little chèvre, but it wasn't very noticeable. Mashed potatoes are never bad, but that was about it. Wild Mushrooms au poivre: The warm spicy essence of black pepper, the savory umami flavor of mushrooms, and the creamy aroma of butter. It instantly transported me to Yunnan, China, for the dish tasted like their baoshao包燒 (wrap-and-grill) fungus. Get Swifty: The most amazing cocktail I've had this year! The clash of cucumber, mint, and lemon flavors was incredibly refreshing, perfect for a summer day exceeding 30 degrees Celsius. My friend said the miniature image looked like a kiwi, so cute! Smoking Hill: A Rittenhouse Rye base with a very strong smoky flavor, although it somewhat overshadows the freshness of the blackcurrant and mint, I still personally love it. The restaurant's lighting was extremely dim, making it difficult to take photos and even harder to read the menu. read more

Popped into the lounge area to experience the girl dinner. Lots of other ladies and their lady friends had the same idea. For my girl dinner, I ordered a dirty vodka martini, crispy fries, Caesar salad with your choice of anchovies- mine is without, and leveled up with 2 shrimp cocktail. The cocktail sauce was spicy . It was delicious. The blue cheese olives in the dirty martini were the best I've ever tasted. The vibe and decor in the lounge was upscale and cool. This is def the spot on Thursdays. I'll be back. read more

I would avoid this restaurant. Nothing about it was good. They open at 3:30. I walked in & was the first to sit at the bar. There was one bartender who was engaged in conversation with who appeared to be a wine vendor. So I waited, and waited, and waited. Finally I interrupted her and asked if there was another bartender available who could make me a drink. He broke away & fixed me one. The food was not good. Crab Rangoon was burned and the Oysters Stockofeller as they call them were raw. We expected them to be cooked. We each ordered the wagyu burger which just okay. We had 1 drink 2 burgers and 2 appetizers and with tip it was $130. Certainly not worth it. The ambience was its only redeeming quality. read more

This was our first time visiting, and we came with a large group. Unfortunately, we arrived later than expected due to a tornado warning and extremely heavy traffic. We anticipated being about 15-30 minutes late because of the circumstances. From the moment we arrived, we felt rushed. Our server did not seem understanding of the situation and was not very accommodating. When we asked questions about the menu, her responses were short and dismissive. She also frequently gestured with her hands very close to my face while speaking, which felt uncomfortable and unprofessional. She was not very personal. Throughout our visit, there were several snarky remarks and sarcastic comments that made us feel unwelcome. We understand that restaurants can be busy, but we expected a higher level of professionalism and courtesy, especially as first-time guests. Edit** there's a couple of us woke up to food poisoning. read more

Time for an update. Stock Hill remains in my regular rotation for nice steak dinners out in KC. We most recently dined her for our anniversary back in September and it was even better than past experiences. I stand by my past reviews but this last time really stood out. I think they do steak better than anyone in KC or at least on par with other greats. Pair that with some of the best old fashioneds in the city and amazing bread and sides? You've got a 5 star spot. Yes it's expensive, but it feels expensive from the service, to the ambiance, to the food, so I tend to think it's worth it here. Definitely a five star date night spot in KC. read more

This has now been my third time at Stock Hill, and its definitely got a spot in my top 3 in Kansas City for a fine dining experience! The service is top notch, the drinks are strong and taste great, and the food is always incredible and FRESH. The lobster bones are always a go to for appetizers, we also tried the crab cake which was amazing the sauce they put it in is so good. The shrimp cocktail is what you would expect, nothing crazy but the shrimp were huge. Best drinks were the KC Steakhouse Punch and the Wolf on Main Street. If you like risotto, their crab and lobster risotto is WELL WORTH the money - its so rich and flavorful. This time i tried the American Wagyu KC strip with the Marrow butter - highly recommend. If you have some money to spend for an incredible night out, this is the spot to go! read more

High end steak House. There American steaks are superb. We're had a ribeye which was perfect. Medium rare with marrow butter. The super premium steaks, wagu, Australian, all looked magical. Triple fried fries were perfect. Really great cocktails. Wait staff was awesome, I could barely get a sup of water before I had a refill. Great recommendations from the staff. 2 servers per table. A little live music in the bar. Great location, near the street car if you care to walk. Expensive, but worth every penny. read more

We had a great evening at Stock Hill, the place was large and a nice modern vibe. We went the "traditional" steakhouse route with à la carte but I think if I went back I may do the preated style meals as they were a better deal and looked awesome. I also really wanted a steak but their other dishes looks great especially the crab and lobster risotto. read more

Dirty martinis are wonderful, as was the tomahawk steak we split. However the mushroom side was waaayyyy too salty and the mac and cheese was basically just noodles without a cheese sauce. Would go back to give it another try, maybe only during happy hour. read more

Are you looking for a transcendent dining experience? Seriously, this is the place. My husband and I were in KC for a wedding and wanted a steak dinner, we landed here and couldn't have been more satisfied. Our server, Gary, was warm, knowledgeable, and a seasoned pro. The rest of the staff were equally as kind and quick. Every dish that was brought out was wonderfully balanced. The 'lobster bones' appetizer and the 'fragola tart' will stay burned into my brain for a very long time. The steak? Exceptional. Wonderful cut and marbling, well cooked, and the flavor was delicious. I'm sad we don't have another night to spend at this restaurant. To say it was one of my favorite dining experiences in a very long time is no exaggeration. The ambience is cozy, the music isn't too loud, and the seating is intimate and comfortable. I wish I had a steak for the road. read more

Ambiance is stunning! It's a beautiful restaurant with intimate lighting & lots of different seating options. The service was fantastic. The bartender was very knowledgeable on all the cocktails & gave appropriate recommendations. When we were sat in the dining room, our server checked on us often and was very informative, patient, & professional. We went during restaurant week so we ordered off that menu. It was $55 for the soup, filet + potatoes, & dessert - what a deal! We added on some extra sides as well. The mushrooms were the best I've ever had. The Brussels sprouts were also delicious. read more

Was not happy with the filet mignon. Restaurant has a nice atmosphere But the menu didn't really pop. The restaurant remind me of the new 1587 steakhouse. A little over priced for what you get. read more

One of my favorite places for a steak, cocktail, and ambiance. I like how it is still in the plaza but tucked away a bit to beat the traffic and crowd. I've been to many steakhouses in KC and I feel like stock hill is one of the better ones in consistency and cook. They cook it exactly to my liking and all their cocktails are superb. I usually come here for special occasions and Everytime I do, I love the ambiance and the service. read more

Great experience. Went for a work dinner and they moved us to a room that was quiet and allowed us to easily have the conversations we were there for. Highly recommend read more

This is officially our new favorite restaurant. I used to think I'd eaten at all the best steak places in KC--turns out, I was dead wrong. This is the spot to order steak, no contest. We went all in on the Wagyu experience, and let me tell you, it was like steak had been kissed by angels. The sides didn't just tag along either. The ricotta gnocchi was so cheesy and indulgent, I considered asking for extra to-go. And the lobster risotto? Writing about it now, my mouth started watering all over again. The place is cozy and quiet, with a gorgeous bar up front that basically begs for a post-dinner nightcap. Our server was like a steak whisperer--knowledgeable and on point. Hands down, the best Mother's Day dinner--ever. Can't wait to go back and pretend I'm fancy again. Seriously, how am I supposed to eat regular steak again after that Japanese Wagyu? I'm officially spoiled for life. read more

Been to stock hill many of times but on this occasion my waiter was a bit aloof and not attentive at all. At one time and point I even found myself at the bar ordering my own cocktail due to him being elsewhere and not coming to our table to ask if we need new drinks even after walking by us several times. On this occasion I would have to say I was displeased with the service yet the food was still great! read more

Stock Hill is one of our KC favorites when it comes to fine dining. We were excited to try some different menu items than our last visit, and everything was delicious, but believe it or not their carrots appetizer is our favorite. The carrots are amazingly cooked and seasoned and the sauce pairs with it perfectly. You'll love the mac & cheese w/ pork belly too and the elote corn is on point. For my entree, I had the ricotta gnocchi. Outstanding flavor and I was fascinated by the sear on the gnocchi itself, something I hadn't experienced before. We've had some excellent chicken and steak dishes here before as well. Also must mention that the atmosphere is lovely and the service is always friendly and prompt. Much appreciated! read more

Had an awesome experience at Stock Hill over the weekend. We were looking to have dinner at a steakhouse with not so casual vibes and we found this one on Opentable. We had a reservation for 5:15 but ended up being 30 minutes late, do to the traffic and they still sat us without any issue. Our server was great! She gave a very indepth explaination of everything on the menu to us, as well making some recommendations. To drink I ordered the tiramisu esspresso martini which I loved! The chocolate and orange flavor paired perfectly together. I ordered the half dozen oysters which again I loved, they were so fresh. The soup of the day was loaded potato so we had to get that as well. The soup was delicious and suprisingly not heavy at all. The wedge salad was also solid, you could tell the blue cheese chunks were just good quality. My least favorite of the meal was the steak Diane, it wasn't bad just not as good as the rest of the meal. Overall had a great time at Stock Hill! read more

I frequent the plaza a lot. My old stomping grounds because I went to UMKC, but I never knew that Stock Hill Grill was here in this location. This is not an easy place to access because of how it's positioned, but when you walk in it's very impressive I honestly never knew it existed on this little corner. It's very classy, and has a chic and sexy atmosphere. I was celebrating my birthday I started with the shrimp cocktail and the shrimp were nice and firm, I would probably classify they as prawns. They were poached in lime bouillon, mezcal spiked cocktail sauce and guacamole, I could've done without the guacamole but I was HUNGRY! For our table we ordered the Filet Diane, which was an 8 oz fillet medallions with seasoned butter and flambed in cognac, peppercorn, garlic with cast iron potatoes. It sounds good on paper but looked very British when it came out. I ordered the Pan Roasted Halibut it was served on a bed of Chinese Cabbage and that's it. I had to order the mashed potatoes to go with it and I was still hungry but it was great flavors. My other friend ordered he pan seared salmon and you really cannot go wrong with that. I had a great experience here and nice to know of another place in town other than the Capitol grille that has fine dining in Kansas City. What's also great is that they have live jazz. I came on a Friday night so it might be specific for that night only, but I loved it. read more

The Wagu was excellent however the service was NOT. We made reservations weeks ago and I was really excited about the dinner we had planned at Stock Hill after listening to rave reviews from everyone on the radio who were having a discussion about KC steak houses. My siblings and their spouses came in town for the Memorial Day weekend and we wanted to have a special meal celebrating our parents, who we've lost over the last 15 months. My brother called and reserved the "Boardroom, a private room with a view". This was not a room with 4 walls and a door nor was it private at best it was semi private. It is located on the second floor right outside the bathroom so we had people walking back and forth the entire evening. The "fourth wall" was a wall of curtains which they never closed. My sister-in-law contacted the Private Dining Coordinator and requested that our appetizers and a couple of bottle of wines be waiting for us when we arrived. She even followed up the day of to make sure everything would be on the table when we got there. We arrived 10 minutes early and acknowledged that we were early and didn't expect the apps or wine to be waiting since we were early. We did NOT expect to be waiting 40 minutes before we received the appetizers and wine. This was totally unacceptable and no one apologized for the wait. We had a party of 8 and 7 of the 8 had Wagu which was delicious and all of us would highly recommended. The Lobster Bisque however was a total failure. It was served luke warm and was not good. Several of us tasted it and said the same thing. We ordered more wine and again waited for 20 minutes to receive it. We finished our dinner and asked about dessert however after 20 minutes without a dessert menu or explanation of desserts available we decided to pass on dessert. Today I called and spoke to a manager about our experience and not once did he apologize for the poor service. Very disappointing. read more

This was by far one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at....and im a huge foodie I wish I remembered the servers name from last night because she was amazing!! she was very knowledgeable with the menu and the service was great The portion sizes for appetizers were huge and can definitely be split between 2-3 people The lamb chops were to die for and that deconstructed cheesecake was delicious If ever visiting Kansas City again this is the place im going to.

The place was packed in a Friday night and we squeezed in at the bar. Not terribly hungry so had a charcuterie board whip was loaded. Great variety and good to nibble while enjoying a cocktail. Cocktail are well done and wine selection is good. Triple cooked fries are always amazing. Beautiful restaurant and comfortable. They have music many night around 8 I think but we were out before they started. Nice spot to drop in and close to home is a bonus. We have been here many times and will be back. read more

The reviews are spot on. This is worthy of the three hour drive, even if we weren't here for a family event! The steaks are great, of course (and the rib eye is even better than the filet minion) but the lobster bisque was the real show stopper! So silky, and with a really generous serving of lobster. The oysters were fresh and sweet and the salad was crisp with a buttermilk blue cheese dressing that was light enough to complement rather than hide the heirloom tomatoes and butter lettuce. Don't skip the bread and citrus butter if you can make room - it is light without being fluffy. The cocktails are fun and frivolous and absolutely worth the investment. Plan time to enjoy the entire experience. Issac was wonderful, music was nice, setting was beautiful, and it was a terrific experience. read more

We were looking for a place to try wagyu in Kansas City and this was one of the top places that popped up! We overall had a great time--ambiance is great! We sat upstairs and there was live music below. As a starter we had the wagyu meatballs--5 item, and beet salad--2 (was good, but I got stuck eating it all because no one else liked it and it was a lot of beet). I had the wagyu filet mignon as my main and it was perfect. I'm excited to come back for happy hour for their oysters and drinks! read more

Ambiance: The vibes here were amazing. Restaurant definitely has an upscale, but modern feel to it which I love. The restaurant was lively which I appreciate, you could just tell everyone was enjoying their company, food and drinks. Service: Our server Gabrielle was out of this world. This girl got 3 tables sat at once in her section and was so knowledgeable, kind, and tentative to all of us. She knew a lot about the menu, and had great recommendations. Another thing to note, the service was fast here. We weren't waiting forever in between courses which was great because we had a concert to go to after. Food: Not pictured, but literally what im still dreaming about is the bread and oil they give you to start. It was to die for. I opted out of appetizers but my friends got the oysters, wedge salad, and potato soups and they loved all of them. For dinner we all got the filet diane and it was delicious. It is heavy on peppercorn which I love and came with these mini potatoes. The steak melted in your mouth and was cooked perfectly. Also not pictured because they were so delicious and were eaten quickly was the carrots. When we ordered carrots as our side, I was like seriously!? But they were 1000/10. Get them you wont be disappointed, I promise! This place is getting a 5 star because it checked all the boxes for me. Good food, great atmosphere, friendly staff, and the bill was extremely reasonable for what we ordered! read more

We were a group of 6 with a reservation for December 9, 2024. This was such a disappointing experience for the entire group in terms of the service we received. Our waiter offered little information and we saw him once after we ordered (besides delivering our bill). At least 4 of the group had substandard meals. Cold food, steak that was not very good, and soup that was salty. The reason it has taken me so long to submit a review is that I initially sent an email through Stockhill's website to alert the powers that be that our experience was not what I have come to look forward to here. Since about 3 months have passed without any response from them, I decided to share our experience here. read more

Exceptional in every aspect... the modern decor, and the intimate lighting were warm and inviting. Their service was prompt, accommodating, considerate and of the highest stature.
