Welcome to the Crossroads, where Kansas City comes together. An evening at Lazia begins at the hearth with a complimentary house amaro blend as the sound of hip hop's greatest legends fill the room. The menu is both familiar and surprising in its selection of Italian favorites. It offers a collection of Cicchetti and Antipasti to start your meal; an expertly prepared and seasonal selection of handmade, fresh pastas; a satisfying collection of Secondi; and few moments of surprise & delight!

Named for another Crossroads O.G. and pal of Pendergast, Johnny Lazia, our dinner-only restaurant sits at the Crossroads of Italian culinary inspiration and the farms and fields of the Heartland in the Midwest.

We are currently open 7 days a week from 5:00pm - 10:00pm
Valet Parking for Lazia guests is $9, but street parking is also available.

Lazia is happy to accommodate most dietary restrictions.

    Great experience, since we were only two, we had a very small table out in the middle of everyone. Still felt quaint and cozy enough.  some of the dishes were a little spicy for our taste. And maybe a bit much salt than what we normally put on things but all tasted delicious. Got the strawberry rhubarb tiramisu to go home and it was delightful tea later on. Great atmosphere and great service

    We had an excellent meal at Lazia, as always. The dishes were beautifully presented and everything was delicious. We’ve never had an item here we wouldn’t order again. Our server, Abby, was courteous and personable. Another great experience at Lazia.

    If you go on Sun or Mon night the table side making of Buffalo mozzarella is not to be missed. And do yourself a favor and order the focaccia as well to make DIY bruschetta.
    LaziaResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you for the five star review Michelle! The tableside Mozzarella on Sunday and Monday nights is absolutely worth a visit and we are so glad you enjoyed it paired with our house focaccia. Excellent choices all around! We look forward to seeing you again soon!

    We ordered based on the advice of our fabulous server, Debbie, and absolutely loved every dish! Each staff member who approached our table, from the cheesemonger Shelly to the gentleman who served as “bridge” from the Chef, was attentive, delightful, and informative. We took guests from out of town and could not have been more pleased with the experience!

    Absolutely wonderful experience, as always. We introduced our friends to Lazia after having spent our anniversary there and it made for unforgettable memories. Debbie, Stewie, Anna, and Abby are top of their game when it comes to service and making the stay nothing short of spectacular coziness. Thank you!
