Best Lunch Restaurants in Plaza / Brookside

The bar service was great. We arrived an hour early and sat at the bar to drink and have an appetizer. Appetizers were flatbread and meatballs! Both were excellent. When we were seated our waiter was okay at best. Don’t know if he was just having an off night but we could sense he just didn’t want to be there. When we were closing the ticket out we considered having another drink and he said well it would make my night easier if you didn’t! For dinner we ordered Steak, Lamb and Lobster between 4 of us. Steak was charred and over cooked & lobster was way over cooked! The lamb was good. We weren’t told they were out of broccoli so everyone’s plates just came with green beans. We asked the waiter and he said they were out of broccoli. Even though it was a mix up, the green beans were the best part of the meals! I think this night was just an off night because normally we’ve had good service and food!

We had a lovely evening celebrating our son’s birthday. The food, the wine and the experience was excellent. They even brought our son a complementary sweet treat after they asked if we were celebrating anything.

Sam provided great service on a very busy Valentine’s. Food and drinks were very good, as expected. Restaurant was packed but mostly well organized.

Interesting that there were multiple items which they were "out of". In their defense the weather had been snowy and it was Valentines Day (though ours was a 5 pm meal). I was ok ordering my 2nd choice, but our neighboring table (tables are quite close so conversations are unavoidably overheard) was very unhappy. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and our attentive and capable server Maggie. We will return.

It was amazing from beginning to end. Gaspar was the most professional server we've ever encountered. We enjoyed the lobster and crab cake, the KC Strip au poivre, and the seared scallops and lobster risotto. The blackberry sidecar was the cocktail of choice. The whole experience was luxuriously decadent, and Gaspar was wonderful to make sure our anniversary was so special. Thank you all!
