Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Extra Virgin in Kansas City offers an exceptional dining experience with "fabulous" small plates and "exceptional service." Guests rave about their mezze spreads, lamb kabobs, and churros. The vibrant atmosphere, especially during happy hour, is a highlight, though it can be "very loud." A must-visit for Mediterranean tapas lovers!

Our server Mallory was great. She gave us plenty of time and space to enjoy the evening out with friends. The food was excellent we really enjoyed the salmon, mushrooms, fig and goat cheese salad, hummus, falafel, and seasonal squash soup. They have a loud area and a quieter area. The quieter area was perfect for us.

I go here a lot. But tonight was amazing. If you haven’t tried Extra Virgin you’re missing out. Small plates and just incredibly good food. And the dream list is perfect. Nice job!

Great food, drinks and service. We had the east coast oysters, which were small but tasty. The beet salad was the star of the show. The mussels and shrimp dishes finished us up. One of KC’s best restaurants.
