    Oh yes, the first Yelp review! KC seems to be having a sushi renaissance , and what a great addition with Sushi Kodawari- a 15-course omakase restaurant located in the heart of the Crossroads. If you have never experienced an omakase meal, it is a pre-selected menu by the sushi chef/owner based on the freshest available fish mostly sourced from Japan, as well as what is in season. You've never had sushi until you've experienced something like this. The fish was so fresh and it was very interactive with the sushi chef as you watch him prepare each course and he engages with you about the overall process of sushi making. You eat each course as the chef wishes it to be prepared (so eat with an open palette!) A truly special dinner for those sushi connoisseurs like myself. Perfect for date night, special occasion, solo diner (myself) and just because. 8 spots per seating so make sure to get your reservations early! And future sake pairing coming too. Service was superb as well, Beth did it all! Final review: 5/5 stars, fantastic addition to the KC foodie scene. Obviously not for vegetarians (sorry not sorry)

    This is a great addition to the KC food scene. We were able to get a reservation for Sunday night. Chef Karson and Beth did not disappoint. Every course had the right attention to detail. We also got the wine pairing which was great. The setting is for 8 people per session - so a very cozy atmosphere. While a bit pricey (not any more than what omakase restaurants charge in other cities) it is worth the splurge.

    Chef Karson and Beth were amazing, as were each of the items on the menu. The entire experience from beginning to end was thoughtful, fun and most importantly, delicious. Cant wait to come back!

    Every time we do a Trader Joes run, I always see this place and always wanted to try it out since…read morethey took over the old Red Snapper place. The place was warm and perfect for a cold winter day. Space was decorate all over and seeing a handful of customers and staff was reassuring too. The server was so nice and seated us right away. Looking over the menu we order a ramen bowl, sushi, and a bubble tea. Everything came out fresh, hot, and delicious. It was great and we can't wait to visit again. Perfect little gem that's not packed and great for date nights.

    Omo's is under new management. This makes me sad. One of my favorite restaurants has just become…read moremediocre. We no longer felt like we were old friends and they were happy to see us, but just customers. Service was slow and sporadic. The menu is kind of the same, bit the food was completely different. I have never had salty such rolls before. Could barely eat the Alaskan roll for the salt and that was without soy sauce. Had to ask for Wasabi for our rolls. Teriyaki chicken had a nice flavor, so kudos on that part of the meal. Previously, Omo's was our go to restaurant when we got to KC. I have just been given an excuse to try other restaurants. Ambiane looks the same, but music was way too loud and even the chopsticks are nice, but not as nice as they were. But, at least they aren't disposable. We miss the old chef and waiter.

I'll be hitting this place every time I'm in KC. Paulene is super cool. The restaurant itself is also a cool building next to a bunch of bars.

Every detail feels intentional, from the plating and presentation to the atmosphere itself. As someone who appreciates design, Noka absolutely delivers. Food-wise, there were two undeniable stars of the night: * Wagyu Nigiri (100/10) - One of the best bites I've ever had. Rich, buttery, perfectly balanced, and worth ordering every single time. * Crab Campanelli (11/10) - Absolutely incredible. Comfort food elevated to fine dining quality. If I came back tomorrow, I'd order this again without hesitation. Other highlights: * Filet (10/10) - Beautifully cooked, incredibly flavorful, and paired with perfectly prepared bok choy. Everything on the plate felt intentional. * Night Market Wings (8.5/10) - The quality was excellent. The sweet heat profile just wasn't exactly my personal preference, but that's purely subjective. If you enjoy spicy food with a lingering, slightly numbing heat, you'll probably love these. * Shrimp Tempura Roll (8/10) - Very good and executed well. * Tuna Roll (7/10) - Good, but it was the least memorable item compared to some of the standout dishes we ordered. Noka excels at creating a complete dining experience. Beautiful atmosphere, thoughtful presentation, excellent service, and several dishes that genuinely surprised us. For a special occasion, date night, or anyone looking for an elevated dining experience in Kansas City, it's absolutely worth a visit.

It was the perfect night to sit by the windows and watch the clouds roll in as a thunderstorm approached. The service was excellent. Our server, Jenna, was friendly, attentive, and quick throughout the entire meal, making the experience even better. The food was delicious. We ordered the lobster roll, Braised & Blue pizza, meatballs, oysters with caviar, and the chicken and shrimp yakitori. We also had a couple cocktails- Spicy Paloma and Pineapple Express made with reposado. Everything was flavorful and well prepared, but the lobster roll was definitely my favorite of the night. Between the stunning rooftop views, great atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious food, Prime Social made for a perfect evening in Kansas City. I would absolutely come back and highly recommend it for a date night, special occasion, or simply enjoying the city skyline with friends.

The food and drinks are a little pricey, but they were really good. This is definitely a place to relax, enjoy a cocktail, and take in the view. We were in the mood for something a little livelier afterward, so we headed to Westport. Overall, great atmosphere, clean, good service, and definitely worth checking out!
