Restaurants near Epperson House

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!

As Capital Grille is a holiday tradition, this year was no exception. The wine selection, paired with the Gorgonzola Steak was a highlight of the meal. Non rush atmosphere with top notch service from the moment of arrival. Definitely a Plaza destination year round but especially during the holiday season.

We always have a great time at Prime Social. If there are nights when you are looking for energy, it can be great. We have also enjoyed sunset drinks and great food. Julia is without a doubt the BEST person on the serving team. She is a total delight and makes the night extra perfect.

We had a wonderful family dinner at Gram & Dun. Ambience, food and service from Andrea were amazing. Thanks for a special start to the holiday season!

Hanna was our server and she was beyond amazing!! It was the best dinner, wine food and dessert! We are making our “Friendsgiving” an annual event there now!
