As always, our dinner at Lidia’s KC was excellent; we started with drinks and I had an amaretto bourbon sour, which was delicious and lasted through dinner. We started off with Insalata Mista, the “house salad “, which is always fresh. I couldn’t decide between the Chicken Limone or the Eggplant Parmigiana, so our waitress suggested half of each! They were both wonderful, and as I had never ordered the eggplant before, expect to again; it was crispy, with a nice sauce and tasty cheese (Fontina?). My husband had the Heritage Pork Porterhouse, which he really enjoyed; I had a bite, and while I’m not a huge pork fan, it tasted pretty good. As Thanksgiving was two days ago and we had three types of pie at home, we didn’t order dessert this time, but the selections looked tasty. I have had the apple blueberry strudel before, and the tiramisu is always heavenly. I’m a Lidia B. fan girl, and plan to revisit my go-to for Italian, which I have done for over twenty years!

Wonderful meal in a beautiful venue. My filet mignon and my husband’s ribeye was perfectly cooked with amazing flavor. Best steaks we’ve found at a restaurant in KC so far. The service was exceptional as well. Pierpont’s made our anniversary dinner very special. We will definitely be coming back.

Absolute YES. From the selection of food menu items, the various assortment of delicious libations and the courteous, attentive staff, you will be completely satisfied with your dining experience. I have been here multiple times. Today was special as my good friends took myself and my husband out for our dual birthday lunches. Everyone ordered a different menu item and the meals were shared amongst the four of us so that everyone had the opportunity to sample the delicious offerings. My friends had never been there before and are now looking forward to the next opportunity. ☺️

We arrived on time for our 4:15 reservation. We were seated shortly after 4:30. The staff taking our name and letting us know our table was ready were incredible. Very professional and helpful. Our drinks were excellent! I as concerned there would be limited options in Thanksgiving. There were plenty of options. We ordered from the price fix menu. The mixed green salad with feta, pine nuts and a balsamic dressing was divine . The lobster bisque was perfect and our main courses consisted of center cut filet, crab cakes and miso glazed sea bass. All were excellent! And then desert! Too much food. We had debated about going out for a nice dinner with all the other food activities we had this weekend. We are so glad we did. It was an amazing food experience, our waitress was great and it made for a memorable experience with good friends. We are KC natives who moved to Nashville and I can't say I've had food this good there. We'll be back. 😍

Stock Hill provided my son and me with a Thanksgiving dinner that was as close as possible to a home-cooked meal, but with a high-end twist. The service we received was exceptional, and the ambiance was both comforting and opulent.
