    We have eaten at Bristol in the past, mostly in Leawood. On this evening we were quite disappointed as we had made a reservation in advance of attending a concert performance nearby. We arrived early, yet ended up waiting well past our reservation time before being seated. We recognize the restaurant was rather busy, but when we made our reservations there were plenty of open times available in front and behind our scheduled time so they should have been able to properly space patrons. After we were seated, we received our appetizer fairly quickly, but the entree came about twenty-five minutes later. Overall, we had allotted ourselves over two hours for dinner and we found we had to eat very quickly in order to make the move to the concert venue and did not have time to enjoy our meal. During the time of our stay it was very loud throughout. This was not what we were expecting. The meal was just okay, nothing too exciting. It was not what Bristol has presented us in the past and a very disappointing experience. Maybe it's just the Kansas City establishment that was the issue and not the others. Hopefully, when we return to our local it will prove to be better. I'm not sure we will return to the K.C. site. I thought this was going to be a bit more higher class than what we received.

    Very popular restaurant. We had a 545 reservation, and we're seated around 610pm. Service was exceptional! The food was very tasty and you received a lot of it. No bare plate to be seen. Everyone was so nice and very courteous.

    Thanksgiving is a busy day. One in our party ordered the turkey special. Half of the turkey was dry. The sides were very good. The lobster bisque was wonderful! One in our party ordered the surf & turf. The turf was dry and overdone (she ordered medium rare). The sides were very good. One ordered the trout. He said it was very good. One ordered the lobster cob. It was very good. We ordered carrot cake and creme brulee for dessert. The desserts were excellent. Bristol is one of my favorite restaurants. It is very good and has a special ambiance. Perhaps it was the Arkansas / Illinois basketball game at T-Mo center and the crowd was unexpected. Whatever the reason, I won't go to Bristol on Thanksgiving again - at least not if there is a big event downtown. We were disappointed. I expect I'll go again for seafood, just not on a holiday.

    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. 😍
