This local favorite features a rustic Italian décor, a warm fireplace and outdoor dining overlooking a creek. Although it is upscale and romantic, with servers dressed in tux shirts and ties, diners dress casually and the atmosphere is relaxed. This restaurant also connects to an adjoining market where diners can enjoy sandwiches. Entrees include shrimp scampi, lobster, chicken and KC strip. This award-winning restaurant, a Kansas City favorite, is perfect for business meetings and romantic occasions.
Kansas City is famous for its barbecue, and this restaurant is one of the reasons why. Arthur Bryant's has been serving up slabs of slow cooked pork and beef since the 1930's. The small building is nothing fancy and resides in a somewhat disreputable part of town, but diners do not necessarily come for the ambiance. Nevertheless, Mr. Bryant has a couple of other locations around town. Casual dining is an understatement here, where guests line up, sometimes waiting up to 30 minutes just to order at the counter. Be sure to order a plate of greasy, delicious fries, and be prepared for huge portions.
The Cheesecake Factory is surely the place to go when craving a rich and delectable slice of the mouth-watering dessert, but this restaurant offers much more. Serving appetizers, lunch, dinner, late night dining, Sunday Brunch, and a full bar, the Factory is a great choice for a casual dining experience. Everyone will find something to their liking with over 200 menu selections of pizza, pasta, seafood, steaks, salads, sandwiches, burgers, and more. Be sure to save room for one of the 50 delicious cheesecakes and desserts.
