This is a unique restaurant with a great vibe. The food here is delicious, with generous portions. Not horribly priced for the amount and quality food you receive. The Honey Sriracha Chicken Sandwich was great, and something I’d recommend others to try for themselves. The Mac and Cheese is pretty great too.
This is one of my favorite places to eat in KC. These folks take the “local” in their name seriously. A lot of what they serve is locally sourced and excellently prepared.
The menu covers a range of tastes. Though typically I like to get something more unique to the venue, the last time I was there I was in a fish and chips mood. Everything they make is great, so comfort foods and more exotic fare are all safe bets.
I'm also crazy about the cocktails. Not only are they delicious, but they’re also cleverly themed. The selection changes frequently, so I can’t recommend anything specific. But there's always something fun afoot. For example, one month all the cocktails had movie themes. The Apollo-13-based offering contained Tang (and tasted great anyway). They always lure me into drinking more than I should, but I always enjoy it during and seldom regret it later.
Had lunch here with some friends from out of town. I was skeptical before, but we sat on the patio, had an amazing server, and the food was excellent! I had a sweet potato quinoa burger with hummus and French fries, and I'm already plotting when I can return for this same meal. Friends got tacos, the jam burger, and a kale salad, and everyone was satisfied.
What a fun venue! I'm always looking for restaurants with a good selection for my vegan friend and the Westside local fills that void. Although reservations are recommended we arrived Sunday for brunch without any and were seated in less than 10 minutes. Mat , at the front was very helpful and welcoming. Our waitress, Hannah was great! She was very friendly , knowledgeable and efficient. Even though the place was jumping (and a bit loud) she never acted or made us feel rushed quite the contrary she made us feel quite welcome like regulars. The food was fantastic! My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy, mushroom gravy with no meat. I had the country Benny and it was great! We lucked out with a parking space right by the door otherwise the street parking is very limited. Highly recommend. I am sure to return soon. Thank you for a pleasant experience.
Worth the short walk from the convention center. A number of vegetarian and even vegan options. I had the Fried Portabella Sammy with fried salt and pepper tater tots for my side. Great sandwich and wouldn't hesitate to order it again. Tried their crisp for dessert. Portion sizes were generally generous except the crisp didn't come with enough ice cream (scoop was very small). Service was nice and timely. Definitely a place to check out if you are in the area. $33.04 total before tax for those two items.
What a banger menu with unique flavors! Our server was Mackenzie and she was very informative, warm and welcoming. She bent down and talked to us at chair level (does that make sense?) and I was like woah. I want to be her friend. I’d party with her. I hope she gets promoted and gets the recognition she deserves!
The Westside Local is a fabulous place with a great atmosphere. Had brunch, check out the photo of the Carnitas Burrito! It’s huge. Also had the Bacon & Cheese Omelette, also outstanding. Definitely recommend, get reservations.
The location of the restaurant is in a very neat part of town. A mix of very interesting homes, condos, and some business. A very mixed use neighborhood feel. The staff were all incredibly friendly and attentive. The young lady who helped us checked in regularly and chatted with us about the food. The food was ok. My wife had a steak special that was delicious. I had the spicy chicken sandwich and it was sweet and spicy but really need some sort of light slaw or greenery on it. It came with pickle slices but there were 4 total slices for the whole sandwich. My daughter had the grilled cheese and tomato soup. The soup was good and the sandwich was fine, but needed something to give it a bit more flavor. Their house made chips have a great crunch but almost no flavor, and were in desperate need of some salt and pepper. Overall a fine experience, but we may give it some time before we go back. Oh, the three drinks we had were all unique and very tasty.
I went here in June 2023 and it's a nice, cozy little place to try new foods! The staff were pleasant and provided quick, friendly service 😊 The food was like nostalgia, comfort food to me. 10/10, highly recommend.
Cute little gem I just had a lunch meeting at! Perfect spot. Great neighborhood feel. Delicious food. I got the BLT, but im going to be back for that mac n cheese soon!
