Restaurants near Hawthorne Park

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!

This place has always been been a favorite of ours. The service is always fast and friendly. The beer is always smooth and cold. The amount and quality of food is spot on. The waiter accidentally put in the wrong order and they corrected it right away. They even took it off of our bill, and we didn’t ask them to that. Superb service

This evening was a special occasion with family members coming in from out of town for the Thanksgiving holiday. The dining area was well appointed and party at five were seated at a window table with a beautiful view. Our server, Hector, was very polite and intentive to our needs. We were never rushed and enjoyed appetizers and adult beverages prior to ordering our meal. Once ordered and delivered, the food the food was prepared exactly to your liking and was delicious. This is a one of a kind dining experience in the Northland and I highly recommend this establishment for a pleasurable dining experience and special occasions.

First time there. Food was good and service was excellent. It was loud.

Our experience was good. The food was good, and we were there to watch the Kansas City Chiefs game; however, our waitress made us feel like she was rushing us out the door. There were other open tables, so she wasn't waiting to turn over the spot. Other than that, would recommend.
