This is a wonderful place to eat in Kansas City. It is really unique because they use all organic ingredients and as much local as they can get. I've been there many times for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner and every time I've been extremely pleased. Their staff is always really friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. I love asking them all about the local ingredients and such. I usually go home with one of their daily specials menus. These are so great because they list all the farmers who have delivered fresh produce and meats. The salmon here is to die for, it's served with rice and a spring roll. I also love the ravioli, it's handmade and stuffed with local cheeses. They also have really tasty benedicts. My favorite I think is called the ""Summit Street Benedict"", its served on a whole wheat (which I love) english muffin, with two poached eggs, red peppers, onions, feta/goat cheese (can't remember which), hollandaise sauce, and topped with capers, it might have mushrooms on it too, I can't remember. It is so yummy. I highly recommend this place to anyone in Kansas City or just visiting. They have a great wine/beer/liquor list with all kinds of local and organic selections. And I have to say hands down they make they BEST bloody marys EVER!! This is a good place to take a vegetarian, almost 1/2 the menu is vegetarian. And they have a great dining area. There's a front part that reminds me of a European bistro, just smaller tables all along the wall, then the backroom is a little cozier, with bigger tables and two really great window tables. My favorite place to sit is in the very front in this halfbooth that sits against this gorgeous window wall, there or one of their outside tables. And the building has a lot of history, I think it's been a drugstore and a speak easy (maybe more I don't remember). I can't say enough about this place. I love it and I hope more people in KC, and outside as well, will enjoy it too.
