Love sitting at the bar. Artichoke for the win.

This place feels like you're having dinner with one big family. Super old school and nostalgic. If you can get the lobster spiedini order it! Absolutely sensational. I had the lasagna, delicious sausage inside and generous portion. The sauce was a litte too sweet but a lot of people like it that way. The owner comes around and makes you feel welcomed.

This is absolutely the best authentic Italian restaurant in KC. I've tried 4 other Italian restaurants just to compare and honestly there's no comparison. The stuffed artichoke ABSOLUTELY THE BEST, the Frankie pasta...OMG! So good! I've never had a bad experience here. The servers are attentive and nice. The one thing that would wrap it all up for me would be if they added a carrot cake to the menu. I would be complete!

We came to celebrate my FIL still being with us fighting stage 4 cancer and wasn't supposed to make it to Thanksgiving! And my BIL was is town also for a short visit, my BIL made the reservation online and accidentally only made it for 2 people, we arrived early and of course like always they were busy but the hostess and manager both said they would fix it, and they did they worked their magic and were able to accommodate all 4 if us, they were so caring and understanding and very very helpful! And besides the great food, we all ordered something different and of course had to try each other's dish, Mr Garozzo was stopping by each table, and we told him about how the host/hostess had helped us and how appreciative we were for that, and also why we needed to celebrate and he offered us free deserts!!! But we could not eat another bite and he offered to have it to go, we declined but it really felt like we were V.I.P.s like the pics on the wall!!!

Very nice cocktail bar in the uptown area of KC, what’s not to like about good cocktails. Super friendly staff. The coolest vibe in this neighborhood. Excellent whiskey menu with informative descriptions of the whiskey regions. Very reasonable prices. Parking was convenient too.

What an historic pice of history in downtown KC. You will feel like you have stepped back in time when the mob was alive and strong. The food is some of the best Italian the I have ever had. The history on the walls will have you feeling like you was there when it happened. I must see and enjoy the food while your there.

The meatballs have to be homemade. The seasoning was spot on. Sauce was flavorful and the cheese on top was melted perfectly. Calamari was over cooked a bit I would not get it again. Now the Lemon cello cake was to die for. Lemon cello cake is not offered in a lot of places so A+ for that. The atmosphere and the service was also spot on. I would definitely recommend and go back
