Wow!! What an amazing experience! This place is really lovely. I have been afraid to eat seafood in KC other than catfish or local fare since there is no ocean nearby.
Aqua Penny's is FANTASTIC!! We had the lobster Rangoon appetizer, a cup of gumbo and we shared the Seafood Pad Thai with shrimp, squid and bay scallops. It was truly delicious! They fly in their seafood. Penny makes sure it's fresh.
Our server, Christina was just perfect. You should ask for her. She brought me a Thai spice tray with jalapeños, dry Thai spices, red pepper paste and spicy fish sauce with peppers. I was able to spice mine up and my wife kept hers medium as ordered.
For dessert we had the pistachio cake with the poached pear, a nice gluten free option.
My wife and I will be back.
