Everything about this meal was perfect. I don't regret a single thing we ordered. I only wish I was…read moreable to eat more food because they offer so many more things that I would like to try. This is a very authentic Italian restaurant that offers traditional Italian dishes. We started with the lobster ravioli, which was perfect. Then we eat substituted the side salad that comes with an entree for their minestrone. It was a different flavor than I am used to, but fantastic nonetheless. It actually reminded me more of sopa de fideo, a childhood favorite so I didn't mind at all. I have the Shrimp Diablo, which wasn't too spicy at all. Something I always worry about when ordering that dish. My fiancé ordered a classic spaghetti and meatballs with a tomato sauce. Those were probably the best meatballs I've ever had. The tomato sauce was a little on the sweet side, so he would probably choose the meat sauce next time. The waiting area when you check in was a little crowded, and there was a little bit of a wait even with a reservation. However, our waitress was lovely and once we were seated there were no issues. In true Italian style each course is spaced out so you have time to enjoy everything and let your stomach settle.

Amazing osso bucco!…read more We come from time to time and it always good but tonight they osso bucco on the menu and oh my oh my! If it's on the menu you need to get it. It was a pork shank that was fall of the bone tender in a delicious gravy. My wife got the nanna pasta and it was also good, but dang that pork shank was amazing and huge. The service has always been for us and it's a family run restaurant where the owner is still walking around talking with the guests. The decor is fine. I like it because they aren't trying to be too fancy and they wheel around a dessert Carley like it's the seventies or something. They do have pretty darn good coconut cake or limoncello but tonight we passed. Our loss.

The bread is so so soft and delicious (like would love to rest my head on it as a pillow at night soft) and the portions were huge for a great price.

In the sprawling, golden landscape of the Kansas prairie, where the horizon stretches out like a…read moreprayer, Billie's Grocery emerges not merely as a place to eat, but as a cathedral of the contemporary harvest. Whether tucked into the historic, vibrant bones of Midtown or settled into the polished, sun-drenched sanctuary of Leawood, this establishment is a triumph of spirit and soil. To walk through their doors is to leave behind the weary frantic pace of the modern day and step into a vision curated by the inimitable Robin and her team, who possess the rare, alchemical gift of artistic gastronomic genius. Every dish is a poem composed in color and texture, a testament to the idea that nourishment should be as beautiful as it is vital. The design itself--characterized by clean, confident lines and a minimalist elegance that whispers rather than shouts--acts as the perfect frame for their culinary masterpieces. It is a space that breathes, inviting the sunlight to dance across the table while the soul is quieted by the integrity of the ingredients. I have made it a point of honor to traverse the entirety of their menu at both locations, a delicious journey that has never once faltered. There is a distinct, warm current of Midwest nice here, that quiet, unpretentious folklore which suggests that the highest form of hospitality is to feed your neighbor as you would feed your kin. It is this authentic, grounded ethos that makes Billie's the definitive backdrop for my social life; it is where I bring my friends, not just to dine, but to show off the best of what our corner of the world has to offer. It feels as though Robin has captured the very essence of a modern-day prairie hearth, transforming the act of gathering into something sacred. The plates are vibrant landscapes of vitality, clean and intentional, reflecting a commitment to wellness that never compromises on the bold, adventurous joy of flavor. To sit at a table at Billie's is to feel part of a wider, kinder story--one where design meets devotion, and where the bounty of the land is elevated to an art form. It is a place that feels simultaneously like a well-kept secret and an open, generous invitation to all who seek a meal that feeds the body, delights the eye, and restores the heart. In the grand tapestry of our local culture, Billie's Grocery is a shining, indispensable thread, woven with such care and vision that it turns a simple afternoon of eating into a cherished memory, a landmark of grace in the heart of the Midwest.

I took some business colleagues there from out of town not because we went through the museum but just to give them a feel of what an incredible museum we've got here in Kansas City. the food's quite basic but it's good if you've not taken the time to spend some time in Rozzelle Court you should do so. OneNote if you are just going for a meal or a drink you might park on the street if you're a member you do get free parking in the garage or park in the garage and donate to the museum!!!

The woman taking our order / cashier was so rude and irritated to everyone we saw go thru the line…read moreincluding all 6 of my party. She snapped at you if more than 2 people approached to order even though we were trying to order on 1 ticket. She became exasperated when we inquired about changing the salad dressing and acted like we couldn't before conceeding to make the change. Next was the food....Touted as a "celebration of summer" the heirloom tomato sandwich that was produced was made with a tasteless, meally tomato, a huge hard wad of arugla, a smear of boursin on a stale/semi hard croissant. The beer cheese soup was gritty, seperated and oily. served room temp, not warm. When I inquired about exchanging my food for "fresh", I was told that I would need to pay for any additional food and would not be eligible for a refund of my current meal. So..heres the sad part...We were there eating because our friends knew the 'head chef' and wanted to support them. My friends were highly embarrased and apologetic. Definitely avoid this resturant. Go across the street to Oil on Linen at the Kemper. Excellent food, atmosphere and service!

Solid place to grab a cocktail and appetizer!…read more I met a friend here for Happy Hour on a crazy hot Friday afternoon. I had a Cosmo and she had a gin cocktail. We ordered the mussels, fries and tuna tartare. Everything was wonderful but a special shoutout goes to the grilled bread/delicious sauce situation that came with the mussels. Chef's kiss! The fries were crinkle cut and well seasoned and piping hot. The tartare was ice cold and very flavorful. All in all, a great spot to catch up and nosh. Highly recommend!

For lunch, we ordered the chicken sandwich with the Greek Goddess dressing, the wedge salad, the beet salad, and the miso soup. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. We all enjoyed our meals so much that I brought my family and friends back for dinner just a few days later. The dinner menu is definitely pricier than lunch, but it was absolutely worth it. We ordered the Bistro steak, pork chop, and free-range chicken, and every entrée was cooked perfectly. The flavors were creative, balanced, and absolutely phenomenal. The drinks were also excellent, and the service was attentive and friendly. The ambiance truly completes the experience. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and having a live piano player during dinner adds such a warm, elegant touch. We loved everything about Prima Facie and are already looking forward to bringing more family and friends to enjoy this wonderful restaurant. Highly recommended!

Holy cow did I LOVE this place!…read more I had just worked a 12-hour shift with my last ride taking me from STL and dropping me in KC! My options seemed limited that late at night, but pasta seemed to be calling my name so I landed here. I may have been a little under dressed, but no one treated me any different. From the moment I walked in and through my visit, the customer service was exceptional. My server, I wish I remembered his name, was amazing and everything he recommended was totally chef's kiss! I couldn't decide between the pasta I craved, or the highly recommended hanger steak, so I got both! Excuse my yelling but, THE HANGER STEAK WAS ABSOLUTELY TO DIE FOR!!! I had no idea!! All I know is that I thought there would be leftovers and I was ready to lick the plate! Nothing went home with me. I haven't been able to stop talking about the hanger steak since. I would probably order a different pasta next time, or none at all. Also, the focaccia was incredible as well. (Excited about that, but it wasn't the highlight clearly) I'm ready to drive back to KC JUST for the steak. Absolutely phenomenal.

I've eaten here multiple times, and I have to push back on the "cafeteria burger" claim. These…read morepatties are clearly fresh, hand-formed, and cooked to order nothing like the frozen, pre formed disks from a school lunch line. If yours tasted bland, maybe you missed that this place leans into fresh ingredients over drowning everything in sauces. Not every burger needs mayo or mustard; some let the beef and toppings speak for themselves. As for the soggy bottom bun yes, fresh veggies release moisture. That happens in seconds anywhere if you don't eat quickly. But calling the whole experience "meh" while admitting you're going back for breakfast? That tells me the place clearly has redeeming qualities. You even said burger preferences are subjective, yet your review reads like an objective takedown. Bottom line: If you want a greasy, sauce slathered chain burger, go to Five Guys. If you want a solid, no-frills non chain burger with good service and plenty of seating (as you noted), this place delivers. And clearly, you agree it's worth a second visit.

We were on the hunt for a really good, non-chain burger. After looking at reviews, we decided to…read moregive this place a try. Service was good. It is not a big place, but plenty of seating. When it came to the food, it was meh at best. We got the jalapeno burger and the avocado burger. The patties are reminiscent of cafeteria burgers in school. There was no mayo or mustard or any type of sauce on them. The bottom bun was soggy shortly after being served, likely due to the veggies. Needless to say, we did not get our burger fix. So we won't come here again for that. Burger preferences are subjective, so just because it wasn't for us doesn't mean you can't try for yourself. We do plan to go back to try the breakfast items though.
