    Valentine's date night. Reservation for 6:30. Walked right in and was seated almost immediately. Having not been here before, (we are new to KC) our server, Noah, was fantastic, explaining the menu and sharing his favorites with us. He was engaging and knowledgeable. Ordered the Brussels Sprouts as an appetizer and they were fantastic. Followed that up with a shared Champagne Fish and Chips, and a small wedge salad. The fish was cooked to perfection. The chef uses a rice flour and, you guessed it, champagne to make the batter extra light and crispy. Topped it off with their house made Beignets which, I have to admit, rival anything you'll get in NOLA, including the infamous Cafe Du Monde - they are no joke, 100% legit! Happy we found this place. Everything was spot on. Will definitely be back!

    We had an amazing waiter Matt. He was very attentive, friendly and knew a lot about the food. Our food was amazing my husband had the 24oz steak and I had the scallops. It was all cooked just as requested and the sides Matt suggested paired very well. We also had the oysters Rockefeller as our appetizer and they were delicious. We plan on returning and asking for Matt to be our waiter again.

    The food is always excellent! The service was good, but I will say it was a little difficult to get our servers attention at times. We were ready to order, with our menus shut, when she dropped our drinks off & then she turned around and walked off. We waited another 10 minutes for her to come back and I had to ask if we could order. Other than that we absolutely love Bristol and will come back!

    Kathleen was our server last night, and she was wonderful!! We never had her before, she was friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our meatball appetizer and cocktails before ordering the delicious tomato bisque and salad. Kathleen checked in with us regularly to make sure we were pleased with our meal.
