KC Eateries: A Complete List

It's no secret that we love to eat out, and not at your typical chain restaurants. Since we have lived in Kansas City we have tried our fair share of locally owned eateries and we have many many favorites. Tonight i am helping out with a marriage class and giving out a list of date night restaurant options and so as i was compiling all of them i thought i should probably just post it here as well. Most of the restaurants are in the downtown area & and the northland. My absolute favorites are bold & in blue, but we like them all or i wouldn't list them! Click on the title of the restaurant to go their website. Happy Eating!

Inexpensive

Dog Nuvo- Downtown,Crossroads- a brand new gourmet hot dog joint that is sure to surprise you with new topping combinations that you would have never thought up at home.

Oklahoma Joes- Downtown- In a gas station, this is, in my opnion, the best BBQ Kansas City has to offer, the ribs are a mans favorite and the pulled pork is sure to satisfy.

The Filling Station- Downtown- A cute coffee shop that has the best juice bar in town, the juice called ?liquid sunshine? is a perfect pick me and their lunch menu of sandwiches and baked goods is the perfect afternoon treat.

Happy Gillis- Downtown, River market- Very quaint, delicious for brunch and equally as good for lunch.

Tasty Thai- Northland, 72^ndSt- Best pad thai in town, takeout is just as good as eating in, the d�cor leaves a little to be desired, but the food is SO good.

Succotash- Downtown- Brunch and lunch the turkey sandwich with the basil mayo is heavenly, and the hashbrowns/potatoes are delish!
