    Breakfast game in KC is WEAK! and this place is no different. The food IS GOOD though. Compliments to the chef. No skillets, no corned beef hash, it's all pretty basic stuff out here. And the reason I rate this place: It's expensive, I ordered the BLUEBERRY PECAN WAFFLES and it's regular waffles with like, 6 blueberries on it. DISAPPOINTED

    I was really looking forward to dining at The American Reserve, but unfortunately the experience didn’t live up to the expectations. The service was extremely slow and inattentive, which set the tone for the evening. The food itself had potential — the flavors were good — but everything arrived lukewarm instead of hot, which took away from what could have been a great meal. The desserts were also disappointing; they tasted like they had been sitting out far too long and weren’t fresh. Overall, the restaurant seems like it could be excellent, but based on this visit, the execution just wasn’t there.

    The dining area felt cozy and a bit luxurious. The ribeye with steak fries and green beans was delicious but it was pretty pricey. On the bright side, service was attentive and friendly since they went out of their way to refill water glasses even when it's not even close to empty.

    Ambassador Hotels did a great job in this historic bank. I saw the restaurant on line and wanted to experience it. The decor is fabulous and had cocktails in the lounge area with high back fabric couches and comfortable chairs just in front of the restaurant. Added bonus on Friday was a live jazz trio. So fun to listen to. The restaurant is set in the lobby of the bank and it was fun to see the teller stations as a bar. The service was great. After cocktails asked for a table. I had the filet and asked for medium rare but came out medium to medium well. The waiter said cut into the center and I did, and it was medium. Unfortunately, at this time they have temporary chefs, so I opted not to return the steak and eat as is. The flavor was very good along with the potatoes and broccolini.
