We came for my girlfriend’s birthday and had an outstanding experience. The historic castle setting is beautiful inside and out, with great attention to detail, multiple levels, and a warm, elevated atmosphere (plus a nice patio).
The food was excellent across the board — the deviled eggs, wedge salad, meatballs, and wagyu were all well executed and flavorful. Everything felt intentional.
What really stands out is the personal touch. The owner goes table to table and the entire staff is genuinely attentive and friendly. For the birthday they brought out a flower bouquet with a sparkler and even covered our dessert — a thoughtful gesture that made the night feel special.
The wine list is strong and they offer flights if you want to try a few things. Overall, this is one of the better dining experiences in the Kansas City metro. A+ from top to bottom.
