Best Restaurants for Groups in Crossroads / Freight District / Boulevard

Grunauer is one of our favorite spots in Kansas City! The service is outstanding - they always go the extra mile to see that we're happy. The food is delicious 10/10. Already looking forward to our next visit.

The food and service were both excellent. We were seated immediately even with the holiday crowd. The octopus potato salad was different and very tasty! Not something you normally see on menus so we had to give it a try. The pasta trio with salad and desert was a great value. The salad was huge and the pasta choices were excellent. My husband had eggplant Parmesan and it was vey good also. Lidia’s does not disappoint and was a perfect choice for a holiday dinner with friends!

The sushi was really delicious! I had the fried rice, California crunch roll, and spiced brownie. Everything was wonderful and tasted delicious. They have a great drink menu and loved the drink of the day the bartender made. The staff was attentive and the inside of the restaurant was so nice on the inside. There is parking just to the side of the building, and my only issue was having a hard time finding the door at the beginning as it blends in well with the outside wall. But look for the menu if you're coming for the first time!

So fun, such great decorations for Christmas. Yummy drinks and server was very knowledgeable!

From the moment we checked in - and we were early, we were greeted, and taken to our table. We were the first in the room for the evening. Our waiter greeted us, and quickly gave us a cocktail menu, and full menus. I explained that I had not eaten lunch and was famished. He literally suggested a great lemondrop cocktail to take off the edge, after serving some waters, I ordered his suggestion and was completely amazed. it was great! and I ordered the cheese and charcuterie board to start. Our guests arrived and they ordered a cocktail and he suggested that he go over the menu with us. I had the Special of the House which is a filet, covered in Blue Cheese and Figs. I also had a great small ceasar salad, and the house soup which is a corn and crab bisque. SO GOOD! Our entrees came on time, after we had finished our soup, salad and cheese board, I ordered a glass of wine with dinner and it was perfect. He suggested a dessert and we were too full. So happy that we continue to go to this Kansas City legendary memory - we will be back again.
