We find out The Restaurant KC is open 24 hours only a few days/week. On our way to Olathe, we stopped here. The Biker Bar had just closed next door. The Waitress was very nice and told me to get the French toast. I didn't get the French toast and ordered Pancakes (which were great), my brother did order the FT and it was simply the best! Caramelized perfectly with the perfect amount of cinnamon sugar, just a tad of nutmeg (if any) and copious amounts of vanilla in the custard wash. The Chef who works the 24 hour late nights shifts knows what TF he's doing! There were people coming in at all hours for To Go orders of burgers and other dishes. Sucks I'm 1,800 miles away, because this might be the best breakfast I've ever had! The only thing I would change is the chain smoking that happens next door, that infiltrates the restaurant. That's THE ONLY thing I would change. However, the food is so darn good, might be worth the stinky cigarette smoked clothes for some of these hot cakes, griddle items and the tastiest bacon you've ever had.

The correct order was the cheese burger and curly fries. The fries were not so good but maybe just because it was door dash and not fresh by the time it arrived. Finally ordered the 4 item appetizer the onion rings are amazing! And a huge order. I would definitely go again but actually go to the restaurant this time and not order delivery. Only small complaint would be the hours on google and yelp are wrong. Can the business owner update these?

Took a step back to the old diner days and sat at the counter with my friend while we had a quick bite for lunch. The whole place is decorated to be a fun burger diner! Somewhere between the old 50s diner and the tasty freeze burger stand! We were waited on immediately, and not only did the person cooking hand us our food... but he handed over his catsup and mustard to liven up our burgers before he took them back and began working on a to-go order! What a fantastic little place to pop in and visit old KC. It likely helped that we had just come from the Berlin Wall exhibit, so we had a lot of OLD KC on the brain!

The flavor coming off that well seasoned grill "Can you say YUM!" The patty melt with grilled onions is $9.25 so worth it. She said tots, why yes please, nice and crispy $4.95. Finally the perfect beverage to go with this feast had to be a malt vanilla shake $7.50. OMG so good! Finally, the service is phenomenal. I was made to feel welcome the moment I stepped through the door. Locals already know, visitors this is a must enjoy spot in KC. Town Topic, thank you for a delish meal.

I went here for Father's Day after hearing how good their breakfast was. Their house salad was…read morehuge, but it was just a basic salad. I had the pot roast. It seemed to be placed under a heat lamp until the meat was dried out, than slathed with brown gravy just before serving. I received one carrot, a piece of potato and mashed potatoes drowned in brown gravy. Edible,but not worth what we were charged. For me, the highlight was going to be Apple Cobbler a la Mode. The presentation was spectacular,but the menu clearly stated that this was baked in their kitchen. I took one spoonful and it was still partially frozen. I sent it back, and was told it would be put back in the oven, but it was back in two minutes, and the plate was piping hot. I asked if went back into the oven, and was told it was put into a microwave oven. It was at best luke warm, so I ate the ice cream and left the entire cobbler, less two small spoonfuls, on the table. I was offered a to go box, which I refused. I was there with my sons, who didn't want me to make a scene. Had I been there by myself, I would have had a long, difficult conversation with the manager. I may go back for breakfast (which is served all day), but not for lunch or dinner. I would have gotten the same level of food if I bought a Healthy Choice frozen dinner.

I arrived from a flight back to KC around midnight and I was looking for something to eat and…read moredecided to stop here. It wasn't busy when I arrived which was nice, and I took a seat at one of the tables. When I began looking around the store, I noticed the trash on the floors, the countertops were dirty, dishes piled, and food residue everywhere inside the kitchen. My server came and placed a water glass on my table with silverware. The water glass itself was dirty in some areas and my silverware was also dirty. I decided to order the Bacon Cheeseburger with hashbrowns to go with plastic silverware. The burger itself was good and had great flavor, juicy, and flavorful. The hashbrowns were crunchy, salted perfectly, and delicious. However, I felt uncomfortable eating the food because of the restaurant's condition. I saw the server scrape the food instrument used to flip the pancake in the pancake maker on leftover pancake residue on the counter and I was sickened knowing that someone's food was being made using that same item. Not only that, but the workers inside this establishment were not professional and were cussing half of the time I was there. Overall, I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. The cleanliness was below standard, the professionalism is below standard, and I didn't feel comfortable eating my food knowing that the spatula making my food could've been used on something it shouldn't of.

Jonesing for breakfast at dinner time, we made a spontaneous stop and we weren't disappointed. The restaurant had a bright, clean appearance with a retro design. Our server was Hanna. She was personable, helpful, energetic and attentive - Just what we didn't expect. In fact, it's fair to say her service was exemplary. I had a triple size bowl of hash browns with 2 scrambled eggs, mushroom caps, and sausage all mixed in and smothered in gravy. It was delish! My wife had a waffle, 2 eggs over easy, and hash browns. She thought it was great and I believe her. The menu consists mostly of breakfast-oriented items as well as a few sandwiches and burgers. Pro Tips: Apple Pay is not accepted, payment is made at the register and they are open 24/7. Look, Waffle House doesn't pretend to be what it's not. Keep that in mind and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised as were we. Now go - they're open!

The City Diner is outstanding! They definitely have their locals and regular customers, but we're also welcoming to us as first timers. Our waitress was jovial and courteous, and answered all of our silly questions. My wife had a half order of biscuits and gravy. I had a double cheeseburger, which was enormous. Those patties are no joke. I would get a single next time. Thankfully, it did not come with fries or tots as that would've been entirely too much food. I could hardly finish it, and I was ravenous. We want to come back and try other things here. It will not take a long time before we return. My wife loved her biscuits and gravy, and she is from the south. The biscuits were pillowy, soft and flaky. We have found our divvy diner that we love. The City Diner opened in 1937. One taste of their food and you'll know why they've been around almost 90 years.
