RJ's Bob-Be-Que - Mission, KS →
Terrible; without a doubt terrible. The service is horrible. In fact at the table next to me, according to the waitress, “The kitchen lost your ticket, I need to retake your order.” I waited 10 minutes for a waitress to even take my order. Once she did I waited another 20 minutes before the owner came to me and asked me to leave. The reason. I was a single diner eating at a 4 top. It...

Burger King

Yesterday 3/05/2010 I ordered three one dollar double cheese burgers ( around 6:15 p.m. ) I ate one on the way home. I ate #2 at home. Around 1:15 a.m. I vomited violently, my temperature was 102.7 degrees’ , I got real bad diarrhea, had to go to the stool 5 times, vomited several more times. I have eaten at this Burger King since they opened up, recently. I use to eat there once or twice a...

I was not impressed at all. We went there for 3 of my friends birthday dinner. There was 11 of us total. We couldn’t make the reservation so we called that morning to confirm that they could have a table ready for us, which they told us they would. When we got there they told us that we would have to sit at seperate tables otherwise it would be over an hour. Once we finally got our table, we...
Foundry at McCoy's →
I must share this story! A few of my friends and I had gone to the Foundry on Sunday night, January 31. Well I had been in this establishment a total of 3 times in my whole entire life. The first time, pretty much as soon as i walked in and sat down i was met by one of their servers wich i will not give names. She didn’t even say hi to me, she comes over and as rudely as she can say it,...

Although I liked the food well enough, other matters made me give this place the lowest possible marks: Our server hit us! My best friend and i tara were on a double DATE! First off, our server was the bartender who was pressed into serving, so he was a horrible server. then , when tara went up to pay (because he had left us unattended so long at our table that we had to take the check and money...
Pizza Bar →
I will never go to this bar again! In my one experience there, the staff was incredibly unprofessional. I went here for a drink with a friend and ended up being asked to leave. After I had already been served my drink and sat down for about 20 minutes, a security guard suddenly comes up to my friend and asks for her ID even though she was not drinking. After looking at it for a good minute, he...
Osteria Il Centro →
This is most definitely the worst place in KC. I read raving reviews of this place online and decided to try it myself. Upon arrival, I was told it would be a 45 minute wait. Which is to be expected at any restaurant on a Saturday night. After waiting 45 minutes in the entry way in single digit temperatures, we moved into the front door/greeting area for the remainder of our 1 1/2 hour wait....
Jose Pepper's →
Last time I went here the service was horrible and I haven’t been back since. I ordered the taco salad which didn’t come in a shell, which does not make me happy. My husband ordered enchillada’s and the cheese was burnt so, we sent it back. We never got refills on our drink’s. Then, when our meal was finally over, they threw our leftovers away instead of boxing them up for...

This flippin’ place SUCKS!!! The first time I went, it was crowded as hell! Can’t even dance! I swore to never go there again…Well, the other week I agreed to hang out with a friend, so we went out to P&L District. We were on our way to Lucky Strikes, but it was a special event & it was $20 to get in. Some of the ppl (who were friends of this girl I was hanging out with)...
Victor's Chicago Pizza →
Low grade dog food. Ordered the Pep Sticks and med pizza with sausage, pep, and mushrooms. The pep bread sticks looked like they came from a bag from Sams Club. The pizza was burnt on the bottom, like they lined the oven with garlic. The sausage was undercooked and nasty. The cheese looked like it was plastic. It is a shame since it is a 2 minute ride from the house. Would rather get a...
Street Car Named Desire →
Cheap and out of place in the Crown Center.The prices aren’t cheap though as you have $8.00 hamburgers served on styrofoam plates? Seriously. The bartender at this place is surly and arrogant. Do yourself a favor and skip this place and save your money for another restaurant that deserves it.
Victor's Chicago Pizza - Lenexa, KS →
This place was worse than frozen pizza, in fact, we got both a deep dish Vic Special - Never tasted any meat in it, it was all peppers and sweet sauce. The weight of the box was heavier than the pizza. Not much of a deep dish. The standard pepperoni pizza, I actually opened the box the see if there was a pizza in it. I really think it was bought next door at Price Chopper and cooked there. Our...
Gojo Japanese Steak House →
I have been going to Gojo for over 17 years. I recently visited after 5 years of not visiting. 1. Dinner was good. 2. Hurried by wait staff. 3. Brought next course before previous done… 3X times. 4. Brought doggy bag (box) in the middle of main course! 5. Brought bill in the latter stages of main course 6. Ice cream served before dinner done and put on the HOT grill to wait for me to finish...
The Westside Local →
I really want to like this place. It’s great for the west side neighborhood, but unfortunately, they have focused way too much on image and appearance and have tossed service and quality to the side. It’s a great place for enjoying a hard to find beer. The bartenders seem untrained when it comes to making a cocktail or martini, but they can recommend the perfect beer for your tastes....

I like this place a lot, but more than one meal has been RUINED by awful staff. In particular, the old crazy lady with gray hair. She is SO rude to the other workers, and often rude to the customers as well. She is SO condescending and patronizing. Once or twice, she has told the staff they are not allowed to do any special requests or substitutions for my special dietary requirements....
Brio Tuscan Grille →
The worst Italian food I have ever had. The only time I have ever sent food back at a restaurant. Simply sickening. Brio advertises fancy Italian food at a fancy price, but it delivers cafeteria food with a greasy-spoon attitude. Don’t bother. We had “pasta” (sacchetini) in something like vodka sauce and lasagna bolognese. The sacchetini were innocuous enough, but not very good,...
Gates Bar-B-Q →
The whole MAY I HELP YOU thing is silly. They don’t even have their full menu (where are the sides?) on the board to study before “confronting” the counter staff. No kids meals at all. My wife was not prepared for the ordering process and was very put off by it. Seriously, what’s the point? The regulars may know the schtick, but new customers like my wife just aren’t...
Palmers Candies and Ice Cream →
I brought my 7 year old here for ice cream. We each got a small cone, which I thought was very expensive. After we were served, the cashier informed me that my daughter had knocked over a $1.99 sucker and cracked it. She told me that it is the store policy that any broken merchandise should be considered sold. This item should have been written off. As an alternative, it should have been sold to...
Genghis Khan Mongolian Grill →
hated the food, tasted like crap. their meat and veg selections were much smaller than bd mongo bbq and the sauces were just awful. everything was watered down in fact it was labeled “garlic water” “ginger water” “blah blah water”. the only real flavoring they had was soy sauce and fish sauce. bd mongo offers a much wider variety of specialty sauces. not to...
Moonlight Sushi Bar & Grill →
eew. don’t get me wrong, i love KC, LOVE IT. i live in the chicago metro area and enjoy the restaurants, nightlife and shopping KC has to offer when i’m spending tim at my “home away from home”. i HATED moonlight sushi - there is no “bar” save for a “sushi bar” where you can’t even really see them maknig your food. there is no music, no...
Classic Cup Cafe →
I ordered a veggie omelet without cheese and it came with cheese; no big deal, this happens. However, when pointing this out to my waiter (who did not look at my plate), I was told there was no cheese in my omelet. Asked to talk to the manager. She came out, did not identify herself, did not ask what the problem was, did not look at my plate but began the conversation with “My chef has been...
The Westside Local →
With an empty table next to us, an employee (perhaps the owner?) asked us to leave so that other customers could come in. I had finished my coffee about 10 mins prior and my friend still had half a large beer left to drink. He said that he “needed to make money” so would we understand if he asked us to leave so other people could sit down? There was an EMPTY table next to us. My father...
Cafe at Briarcliff Village →
I went with 2 friends to the Cafe for lunch today. Like another reviewer I *wanted* to like this place. It’s close, in a nice location & a friend’s daughter works there. Service was slow but very attentive at least when it came to our iced tea. Note: the review is brutal and my opinion. Nothing was horrible, just mediocre at best. I ordered the steak sandwich. The steak was tender,...

Longbranch Steakhouse Saloon →
This place probably has the best chicken fried steak in all of KC, if it were not for the incredible amount of salt!!!! And I like more salt than most everyone, so that is saying a lot. Most people won’t be able to eat their meal for all the salt, sad to say. I can’t talk my girlfriend into going back now. Also, sad to say, the help is really rude. There is a large pony tailed guy...
Jason's Deli →
I went there with my girlfriend last week. She was excited for me to try this place because she (use to) frequent it for lunch. It was about 830 at night on a Wednesday I believe. Anyway we put our orders in, paid, and my gf received her meal in a timely fashion. I waited at the table for about 10 minutes while she ate. The cashier approached me and asked me to clarify my order, which I did....
Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbeque →
Worst bbq I have ever had - I don’t understand the hype. Since when is any kind of lunchmeat considered part of a bbq restaurant menu? I had heard all kinds of things about the beans - not even average.

The Classic Cookie →
Sorry Classic Cookie, today was the last time I will ever walk in your doors. Wait, I am not sorry, at all! After an ok lunch I went up to pay and found that our server had charged me $8 for my 3 year old. I had asked for a small side of fruit that costs 1.50 and she asked me if I would like a 1/2 grilled cheese for my son, since they don’t have a kids menu, I said ok. Well, they charged me...
Tengo Sed Cantina →
WORST SERVICE EVER. Went with a large group and they charged 21% for service that wasn’t even worth 15%. We reserved a private room only to be stuck in the middle of the room where we couldn’t hear each other talk, then moved in the middle of our meal to what seemed to be more of a waiting area, which was extremely cold, where they set up tiny little table for us to eat on. I...
Longbranch Steakhouse Saloon →
This is the first review update I have ever written. Typically if I enjoy a place I keep going back and have experiences that affirm the reason I reviewed them the way that I did. Longbranch. Your clientèle (the lecherous, creepy, social degenerates who are married to you via the mixed drink on the bar in lieu of a wife/friends) should all come with warning labels affixed. They should have to...
Jacque's Bridal Kitchen - Independence, MO →
I was at a wedding this past weekend that all I heard about before the wedding was how pretty and cool the wedding cake and grooms cake was going to be. I have to say I would not use this business for any of my functions. It was the wrong wedding cake, not at all like the picture I was shown for months, you could see the cake through the icing, truely it looked like it came out of a cake...
The Westside Local →
Ok, I had a lot of problems with this place so rather than write a long drawn out thing I am going to give you the basics and then write a list. The one really good thing I can say is that this place is beautiful inside — it was too cold to sit outside but I am sure the other reviewers cover the beer garden. Their fries were good. I was dining for dinner on a Sunday night with 3 other...

When you walk up to the front of the line with your Visa Black Card and the kid at the door tells you it’s not real and visa doesn’t have Black Card it’s American express you wonder what’s the point in having an exclusive card when the idiot door boy doesn’t know what it is. They claim to be an exclusive club for VIPs? it doesn’t get anymore VIP than BLACK CARD!...

Well, I’m sorry my review offended Nierka (fake name) so much. Perhaps the shoddy quality Fruit of the Loom Walmart neon SoCal hipster wannabe style may appeal to some (say, for example, “Nierka,” who is trying oh so hard to stand out and prove to her former high school classmates that she is no longer the geeky teen she once was. Sure, the bad skin and frizzy hair remain, but...

http://NTTSBreakdown.com is prejudice against Canadians. I had someone who did work on my truck get turned away by the directory solely because he was a Canadian Company! Terrible business ethics. He asked for a reason, and after they got all his credit card information and personal information the Vice President Jill, still refused. The crazy part is they still have Canadian companies posted.

Arthur Bryant's Barbeque →
i’m a food network fan that is were i seen arthur Bryants sauce and i order the original i’m not a picky person but this sauce was bad so i had my husband try it he said it was the worst and my sister said it was bad to so i emailed them and never got back to me so i have to pay for something i do not like and no one else likes it do not order sauce from them.
Chef Burger →
Well I tried Chef Burger for the first time today. If I zip back to the house for a review its not a good sign. I had no preconceived ideas when going to Chef Burger other than it was another Hamburger Joint. Unfortunately it even fell below that. Watching them cook my burger the Cook pulled out a precooked burger and reheated back on the grill. I questioned them about it. “Do you precook...
Oklahoma Joe's BBQ →
First and last trip to OK Joe’s. First, counter staff was rude & unhelpful. Acted like I was an annoyance instead of a customer. Register operator actually took a phone call while I was waiting to pay. Sandwich was SMALL! I almost asked if it was just a sampler. I kept thinking of the Wendy’s commercial where you pay for all the flair on the walls. Except at Joe’s instead of...
Jasper's Restaurant →
What a disgrace to Italian food. My whole family is from Italy and this place is a disgrace. First of all they serve re-heated frozen food, then the waiters have a bad attitude, and don’t even have their GED’s, The owner is usually in the back eating away and sweating all over the food, its pretty gross. I am suprised this place hasnt been shut down for violation of code. THis place...
Kim Long Asian Market & Restaurant →
This place is the worst restaurant in the history of human civilization. It smells bad. The food was awful. Go anywhere but here for pho or traditional Vietnamese food. The owner is rude. They do have Yan Yan which is the only reason they get one star.

I really don’t like this bar/bowling alley. The first time I came me and my party was not welcome at all. A friend of mines came in with some Timberland Boots on and they say its gang related (WTF this is Kansas City in the begining of April Tims is normal as tennis shoes) the bouncers would not let us thru because of that but however there were people behind us fight and the bouncers was to...
LC's Bar-B-Q →
Ok, yes, the barbecue is good. It’s very good. So are the hand cut fries. But the service is about as rude as it could be (we really should have walked out after getting the stare down for a very simple question we asked), the place is disgusting…so dirty I can’t see how the health department lets them stay open. One of those places where everything is sticky. So no, I...
Granfalloon Bar & Grill →
This is one man’s opinion, but I can’t for the life of me decide why people would patron this bar when Fred P. Ott’s is down the street. It baffles the mind! Pros: Strong drinks at a somewhat reasonable price for the plaza area. Cons: Everyone is so angry here! Washed up college athletes seeking one last hurrah with undersexed women (looking for attention in all the wrong...
Smallcakes →
I have never written a review before but feel compelled to do so after spending $36 on cupcakes at this place yesterday. Given the current trend of cupcake shops popping up across the US I was super excited to try a new one in KC. We were celebrating some bdays at the office and I thought I’d splurge. $36 is pretty much the going rate on a dozen of gourmet cupcakes these days so I was not...
Kabuki Japanese Restaurant →
This place does not even deserve 1 star…they should be ashamed of how they treat customers. We went for a special night out with the girls and left angry and upset!!! They ruined a good portion of the night for us! It took FORTY FIVE minutes just to get drinks!!! They forgot to bring out soups and salads to certain individuals, although we asked and reminded them nicely numerous times, we...
Cantina Del Ray →
Moo Goo Gai…Enchilada?!?!?! This restaurant is disgusting. The meat in the food looks and tastes like it was borrowed from a Chinese restaurant down the street in a pinch. The food is not only disgusting but most of the staff is rude. The bartender who took my to-go order was so rude that I almost cancelled. It wasn’t until my husband picked up the food that he realized how right...
Chilli n Spice →
We were so excited when this new little place opened near our home. The first time we went, they had dinner buffet and while not everything was great… it was good enough for the carry out price of $10. Not near as good as Ruchi though. The second time we went, expecting to pay the same price and have the buffet, they had switched things up and no longer offer the buffet for dinner. We had a...

Dropped by taco muerte one afternoon because i was too lazy to drive to taco bell. i ordered the burrito and nacho’s and found myself in deep agony paying over $5 for what i could have bought at taco bell for $2. the taste was the real kicker. it seems that taco muerte gets their supplies from the company that removes the trash from taco bell. it’s stale, dirty, and obscene. i would...

Two reviews are for The Peanut and one is for The Cashew. All reviews were written today or yesterday. I look forward to more of her work. And by God, I’m going to try the BLT.
Raglan Road →
Where to begin…so I gave this restaurant a chance despite never hearing one good thing about it, and they lived up to their bad rep and I’m not talking about the food. The service was so lacking on a slow Sunday night, where only 5 tables were occupied(in the entire place). Sitting outside on the patio our server passed by twice before stopping to take an order or say hello, had to ask...
Madrigall Martini Bar →
Horrible bar service. There were two bartenders on a Friday night, and the big guy looked drunk or drugged. Didn’t know how to make a vodka / tonic (and yes, I’m even willing to give a break to a bartender that doesn’t realize you need a lime in there otherwise it isn’t the same drink). He obviously couldn’t keep track of what he was doing. I just gave up and...
