One of the best dining experiences in KC! Great date spot . The back patio is a must. (Even during the winter.) Awesome view of the plaza . Great ambience.

Kansas City

Providing refreshing relief from the heat, encouraging diners to feast on small plates (like cracker thin pizza and crab cakes ), or full entrees, such as a Berkshire pork chop or veal osso buco

Jenny L.

Small cocktail list , so teach them what you want and they'll make it. Great desserts and small plates . Sometimes live music . Back patio is nice but fills quickly.

Valerie Schlosser

Love it! The atmosphere is modern yet pays homage to the old fashioned. Signature cocktails are delicious, chèvre salad is amazing & my guilty pleasure is the mushroom ravioli . You can't go wrong!

Dan A

Stick with the basics here. Like grilled fish or pastas . I have been disappointed recently in their specials. Great martini and fun friendly service

Kyle Parsons

Quiche of the moment was a super good choice. Asparagus , spinach and some kind of delicious cheese . Bacon vinaigrette is a good touch for salad dressing .

Cindy Petersen

Rainbow lighting....with a glass top...So the stars...can SHINE ONWARD...OUTWARD...UPWARD...and BEYOND YOUR WILDEST:::!! Dream On Family! And Keep on Dancin'...to the Rhythm of Your HEART!!

Juliana Ladd

The short ribs were AMAZING! Meat was so juicy and tender and literally fell off the bone. Had it with a side of the Mac Daddy .. Best meal ever!

Cafe Trio

Check out the "Red Ribbon" Martini . House infused strawberry vodka , Pama Liquor , Lemon Juice & Simple Syrup & finished w/ Cream Soda . Benefits AIDSWALK KC & so $5 of the $8 price goes there.

Grace Fields

The lemon cake is amazing!???? Tortilla soup is really good too! Really nice service as well !

Clint Hall

Amazing spot for happy hour or for dinner . The Cowboy Ribeye is amazing. Take a date!

Albert Tong

Dinner portions are big. You can ask them to split one entree to two plates. They even do that for their martinis . Try more items!

Joelle Swift

We had the hanger steak , salmon and ribeye . Terrific and the service was phenomenal.

Simon Kuo

Everything seems to be good here. The back deck is a great place to sit if you are in the mood for the outdoors.

John Graykoski

Very creative... chef challenges your taste buds in a good way... Needs more Sonoma wines ! Found serendipitously on Gay Cities

Brenna

The vegetarian menu isn't part of the regular menu. Make sure to ask for it. They've got some great options.

Kansas City

They have a large selection of Gluten-free items, many of which are adaptations of their delicious original entrees!

Theresa O'Leary

Great spot on the way to the plaza . I had a beef wellington there that blew me away.

Donald Leming

Join KC Orifginals and support local restaurants . Check out original art on walls.

Chris Sneed

Mussels , Shrimp Flatbread , Crab Cakes , Margaritatini are all fabulous.

Joel Nelson

Some kind of kitchen emergency this evening. Regardless, the osso bucco was excellent.

Sarah Eggers

Ask for the patio . The atmosphere is quiet , friendly and the lugging is great, even in the winter!

Tyson W

The Praline Scallops at Cafe Trio are TO DIE FOR!!! Wow! Next time I'm back in KC I'm b-lining it for this place!!

Monica Banks Koenig

Rarely check in here. But one of my faves. Sitting at the bar doing some writing, enjoying a glass of vino .

Blake Strobel

The Jimi Hendrix is hands down the best summer cocktail I've ever had. And I don't even like gin ... that's how good it is.

Emily J.

The food here is delicious! I loved the gnocchi . Make sure to save room for dessert !

Prentiss Earl III

Get the "lavender lemonade"....you'll want to hug me after the 1st sip #cheers

Mackenzie Knox

There were literally no vegetarian dishes here, unless you count the small hummus plate (which was just okay). Lots of seafood dishes that seemed promising but were overall pretty underwhelming.

Kimberly Jones

One of my favorite spots in KC cozy

Jeffrey Oelklaus

The service was good and the food even better!

La'Trice Murray

Great place, excellent ambiance!!!

Marissa McEntire

The Mac daddy was very good.

Michelle Chen

We ordered Mac daddy , fried oyster , burger , and crab cake during restaurant week. Honestly, felt the food is mediocre, nothing special taste okay not fantastic, I probably wouldn't go back again.

Ryan Holland

Wednesdays are $5 martini night.
