If you're looking for a romantic date night in Kansas City, Tailleur is one of my favorite…read morerecommendations! I've visited twice, once while helping capture content and another time for a bachelorette party, and both experiences were incredible. This French-inspired restaurant has a beautiful, intimate atmosphere filled with antiques, equestrian touches, and European charm. My personal favorites are the peach and brie appetizer and the pork chop. Both were absolutely delicious! Here's a fun fact: Tailleur opened in 2021, and owner Heather White found an antique French sign in Kansas City's West Bottoms that inspired the restaurant's name and spelling! Between the incredible food, thoughtful decor, and cozy atmosphere, Tailleur is definitely a spot worth dressing up for!

Pescatarian verdict: #stlouispescatarianapproved…read more Tailleur happens when someone decides Kansas City needs a little Parisian fantasy. I'm not mad about it. The space is gorgeous, with an old world, French romantic feel. Tailleur describes itself as French in spirit and that pretty much nails the vibe. We started with the focaccia, and since the breads are made in house, obviously we had to investigate. Then came the grilled peach salad, which was delicate and refreshing. And then I stopped pretending to be delicate. Pesto rigatoni with a huge fillet of salmon on top was choice. Fat Kid Activated! The pasta was fantastic, and that salmon took it from good to extravagant? Their current menu confirms both pesto pasta and Faroe Islands salmon are part of the rotation. Pretty sure I just wandered into Paris from Kansas City!

When I learned that it was bought out by Vinzant I was nervous for the future of this place. Nothing against Vinzant, just worried for the restaurant I love so much. I went like a month or two after they reopened and didn't love the experience. The food especially just wasn't the same at all. But it's been some time now. I've been back 3 times in the last few months--two work events and again tonight on my own. Whatever wasn't working before, is resolved.

Buyer beware, especially if you have allergies or special diet needs: We decided to try this…read morerestaurant due to their vegan options; made all needs clear when placing the order and verified when picking it up, we were told there were no animal products in any of the food. After the 1/2 hour drive home: lo and behold, there was chicken in my dish and egg in my husband's. We were told that we could have it replaced by driving the hour round trip and bringing the food we couldn't eat with us. Seriously? I said I'm disabled and my husband is a full time caregiver but we are supposed to spend an hour of our time fixing your restaurant's mistake? How is that a fix?... Maybe I can text a photo of the food issues? "No you have to bring it here. Sorry that's our policy." So. They don't care about us, our financial support of their business or apparently even our health because when you haven't eaten animal products for a long time it makes you sick. But they simply do not care. If you choose to support them be aware that their promises are 100% unreliable.

We came here for an early anniversary celebration to experience the Generous Pour, which ends in…read moreAugust. We tried 6 different Duckhorn wines- first the rose and whites, then the reds. After we sampled the wines, the server asked if we wanted another pour of any of the wines. Let me just say I would recommend taking an uber, as it is a lot of wine. In addition to the Duckhorn wines, our server brought out two flutes of champagne at the end of our meal to celebrate our anniversary. We decided to do the $125 wine pairing dinner, which includes an appetizer, entree, and dessert, as well as the Duckhorn wines. Everything was delicious and we ended up taking home our desserts, since we were so full. I had the filet and my husband ordered the NY strip steak for our entrees. Service and ambiance are always wonderful at the Capital Grille. We will return!

The petite filet sandwiches and porcini-rubbed lollipop lamb chops were easily the highlights of my…read morevisit to The Capital Grille. Both were incredibly tender and juicy, even reheated the next day, they held onto their texture beautifully. The filet sandwiches had such a good balance of flavors: savory richness from the truffle aioli, a nice tang from the cabernet onion jam, and just the right amount of saltiness from the filet. The lamb chops were equally amazing, with a salty, umami flavor from the porcini rub that made every bite delicious. The sides were a little less impressive. The lobster mac and cheese was still good, but too salty for my taste, which made the $26 price a little harder to justify. The soy-glazed Brussels sprouts with bacon had amazing flavor, but they were a bit too crunchy and could have used a little more cooking time. Our server was great and checked on us regularly. My friend was cold, and he even brought her something to wear over her outfit, which was such a thoughtful touch. We went for happy hour in the middle of the week, so it was pretty quiet. The space was very nice and clean, with a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy our meal.

There were two of us, but we knew that this was a chance we don't get often so we ordered the dinner for four. Yes, four. As planned we walked out with a huge bag of leftovers to enjoy when we got back to St. Louis. Our favorite meats were the ribs and burnt ends. Just unbelievably tender, succulent, lean where they should be fatty where they needed to be. Amazing. Our favorite sides have gotta be the cheesy potato casserole and the baked beans. The platter had pulled pork, half a chicken, brisket, ribs, and we also ordered an extra side of burnt ends. Each meat seemed to have its own flavor profile, which was really terrific. We used a little bit of the Kansas style barbecue sauce (which was great), but for the most part the meats stood on their own. Service was fantastic and the atmosphere was lively and friendly. Reservations recommended, especially on the weekend! GO CHIEFS!

I didn't see the water, and slipped and indeed fell quite hard. I'm youngish and spry, and was able to bounce back, and am just sore and achy. But nobody made any comment to me or expressed any concern (other than other guests). I in fact had to report the incident after flagging someone down, and nobody offered as much as an apology or asked if I was ok. I'm honestly glad it was me rather than an older person, as the outcome could have been rough. The food at McLain's is consistently good. I don't care for their coffee or espresso, but it's just not to my taste, I don't think it's poor quality. Bottom line, I think they could work on their soft skills regarding their guests (particularly when potential injuries are on the table). That said, do get a chicken salad sandwich from them. Maybe just order it to go...
