Mahauganee ShawApril 13, 2013I don't believe there's a bad option on the menu. My faves: the state fair (drink), whipped goat cheese (appetizer), asparagus and sour cream mashed potatoes (sides), scotch ice cream (dessert) YUM!
Michelle SMarch 27, 2015Fried chicken is moist and delicious. Salads are really good. I wasn't a fan of the ham gravy but the hot sauce and bbq sauce were good. Definitely make a reservation.
Ray AdamsMay 7, 2013Got the fried chicken and had a side of cheese grits--both amazing! Now for pie! The banana cream pie was excellent but my Mom's and my sister's is still better! Daniel, our server was superb.- G LSeptember 28, 2019In a word..... everything!!! Best insane variety of drinks, best fried chicken with ham gravy, rainbow trout,burnt ends,goat cheese appetizer, tar tar w toast...and last but not least their pies!!!!!
A cozy restaurant tucked in the corner of Mission Farms. They serve "comfort food" which is a sophisticated twist on cuisine that all Midwesterners have grown up with. Definitely a place worth trying!- Michael CJanuary 9, 2016Great beer and cocktail selection, not to mention a small collection of Pappy Van Winkle. Fantastic shrimp and grits (brilliant addition of smoked pork), delicious chicken and dumplings.
Sidna AdamsMay 7, 2013Our server, Daniel, was one if the best we've ever had at any restaurant. Cottage Fries with Parmesan cheese were scrumptious, as was my Strawberry Rhubarb Pie. Oh my! The crust is amazing.
ashley baker taylorMay 11, 2013Try the state fair cocktail, even if you don't love bourbon. Creamy Goat cheese toast, garden salad to be dreamt of and melt in your mouth trout. Best food in joco
Sarah MyersOctober 16, 2014Oh my, the whipped goat cheese is divine. As is the lemon meringue pie. Fried chicken is fine but the lunch portion is quite small.

Local Ruckus KCMarch 16, 2013Wow. Delicious! The in-house smoked salmon is wonderful. The Rye breakfast is sensational. And the coolpop burger is worth the wait. Scrumptious!- Restaurant Guide KCMarch 22, 2014The Monday Night Steak Dinner is $25, or $30 per person depending on the steak selection, plus tax and gratuity. 913-642-5800 Read more
The fried chicken and gravy is FANTASTIC! Also try a side of the mashed potatoes. Be sure to make a reservation, it fills up quickly.
Delicious! Beautiful atmosphere. Shrimp and grits are the way to go. Oh, anddd whipped goat cheese. Yum.
What's Good HereNovember 28, 2014Shrimp & Grits - Cheddar, Scallions, Anson Mills White Corn Grits, Smoked Pork
Juan C. MüllerNovember 4, 2013The prime rib was marvelous. Do make sure to order the Brussels sprouts. They're sautéed with some lemon juice. Yum.
lauren wellsJuly 15, 2013Hot buttered shrimp and hangar steak were the best around our table. Both are incredible.
You can order entire pies to go. Seriously. And they are completely reasonable. Just give them 24-hours notice.
The best shrimp & grits in town. Also their fried chicken ranks right up their if not better than Stroud's
Victoria LibeerJune 11, 2014I'm a fan of Bloody Mary's didn't care so much for theirs though, it was just too thick... however the Shrimp & Grits with pulled pork OMG... amazing... the bacon Mac&Chz not as good as I expected- Michael CMay 7, 2016Ridiculously good fried chicken livers, onion gravy and grits. Lemon meringue deliciousness.
SandyJanuary 23, 2013Best fried chicken EVER! Lemon pie was out of this world. Beautiful restaurant. Real treasure don't miss it.- Zachary CobbFebruary 16, 2016The best fried chicken and banana cream pie in the city. Great dining experience.
Lucy WangNovember 7, 2013Service is impeccable! The interior decoration is unique and tasteful. I had a great dining experience here.
Les DeckerJune 5, 2014A little disappointed was very slow. Staff was great food just took a long time. Having said that it was great food. Fried chicken was very good.
Justin CrawfordAugust 4, 2013Every comes for the chicken, but the rainbow trout was fantastic with great accompaniments!
RebeccaDecember 23, 2013The filet is incredible, owners came by to see how everything tasted...great place!
Patio ROCKS... get the goat cheese app and the sigar cream pie. You're welcome.
Had the mussels tonight. Huge portion, very tasty, great white wine sauce.
Jessica BestJanuary 19, 2013Chocolate cake, ftw. Apple crumble is more like bread pudding but good. I could skip the lemon meringue.
Jay MulliganJanuary 17, 2015Skip the burnt ends and pulled pork. These items are too familiar and offer the diner nothing new or fresh--no risks being taken. Look instead for a palate that let's the artist splash you with favor.
The Roasted Cauliflower Soup is amazing. Also, try the Pimm's Punch out on the Patio!
Victoria SelezniovFebruary 16, 2014Great food, great vibes.. Van is the BEST bartender, say hi to him!
Allison BarbarashApril 23, 2013Get the whipped honey + goat cheese. Great on bread or solo by the spoonful.
The Pimm’s cup is good but don’t leave here without having an old square.
