Cute place. Friendly staff. Good service. The food was good. But not great. Nothing was "wow that's good, I will be back". It was $30 with tax and tip. I had an omelet with sweet potato hash browns, 2 sausage links, and gluten free toast. Hot cocoa to drink. For a $30 breakfast, I want to be wowed.

Had lunch at this location while heading to Branson. We always make a point to come here whenever we can. Our server was very kind and even made sure that the burger I wanted was safe for me to eat. The sauce has gluten, so she had it substituted. Please come to Kansas City!

This place has outstanding food and excellent service. We went for an early dinner and had a huge party, everything was perfect. The meatballs and chicken Alfredo are *chef’s kiss*. They had mini pizzas for the kiddos even though they do not have a kids menu officially. Someone in our party is allergic to gluten and was able to eat their GF pasta with 0 problems. She has an app for GF dinning and this place was rated highly on it.

Pleasantly surprised by the gluten free bread. Got the chicken gyro and it was made deliciously. Husband got an Italian on white and it was also amazing. Great customer service and very professional. Wait time was minimal in the middle of the day too. All around great job.
