We were immediately greeted and we sat at the bar since nobody was there at 11:05. Our waitress was Giovanna, who was happy, energetic and engaging. I ordered the special; pork tenderloin with tater tots and my wife ordered the chicken sandwich. While we were waiting we talked with Giovanna about sparkling waters that we each liked and she went out to her car and got a La Croix Lemon Cello drink to try while we were waiting for our food. (She normally doesn't do this but it pertained to our conversation and was a gracious gesture). The food came out quickly and was presented beautifully. Both sandwiches were tender and juicy and cooked to perfection! We had no complaints, only compliments. We highly recommend this and we will be back! Thank you Giovanna for such great service and conversation.

It's hard to decide which is better, the owner, Miss Chewy, or the crazy amazing food! All I know is that if you haven't tried GOCHEW, you are sorely missing out. For those that might shy away from different cuisines, this is the perfect place to dip your toes into something outside the box!

We met at Café Cà Phê's four-year anniversary…read more I came around the corner and there they were. We locked eyes. I couldn't believe they were staring right at me. For a brief moment, I thought I heard music. There was a DJ, actually. But that's not how I remember it. I remember the bus. Yellow and black, impossible not to notice. Anime artwork stretched across the side. Go Chew Burger. At the window, someone was waiting who was every bit as inviting as the aroma coming out of that heavenly little bus. I started looking over the menu, and there, winking at me, was the GOCHEW Burger. They mentioned the double patty. I hesitated. "We won't tell anybody." Two patties it was. They also talked me through the kimchi: fresh or charred. They gave me enough information to make me feel like I was making all the decisions. Double patty. Charred kimchi. Loaded fries. I was all in. While I waited, I did what anyone with an infatuation does: research. I learned about Joohae "Chewy" Yoon and what she's trying to do with GOCHEW--take Korean flavors and put them into foods people already know. Burgers. Fries. Familiar food carrying something new. Then the buzzer went off. Time for our first date. No chairs. No tables. Things were getting a little awkward, so we went back to the car. The fries had lost their crispness to the sauces and steam, but I didn't care. The Korean BBQ sauce was sweet and savory, the gochujang brought mild heat, the creamy lime sauce cut through it all, and the bright green chives pulled everything together. Incredible. But the burger? Perfectly crisped edges. Juicy, hot beef. Melted cheese. Charred kimchi bringing sweetness and acidity. Three sauces that somehow never fought for attention. And the bun had a serious responsibility. Two patties. Cheese. Kimchi. Three sauces. Everything depended on it. Spider-Man protects New York and everyone who depends on him. This bun had the same problem. With great power comes great responsibility. And it held. Mostly. The attraction was still there. The infatuation was still there. But they had become something else entirely. Love. This wasn't just a good burger. This is the best smash burger I've had in Kansas City. Chewy set out to make people fall in love with Korean food by putting those flavors into things they already know. I think she got me.

All things considered this place is good. Shocked that I liked it after seeing how greasy and…read moredoughy the crust was with the lack of browning the bottom of the pizza. The grease was because they don't skimp on quality cheese. The fresh jalapeños and Mike's hot honey with crunchy edge cheese made for a very enjoyable pizza.

Meat is fresh tasting and there are choices of chicken or beef. Buns are soft and fresh tasting.

It did NOT disappoint. They have a variety of breads, protein choices and accruements to embellish their sandwiches. SUPER tasty and GREAT plating makes their food mighty tempting. Vance, the young man who took our orders, was knowledgeable about selections and patient with we "newbies". The layout appears to be a "fast food joint". Nothing could be further from the truth. Genuine silverware with REAL "LIVE" PLATES, ROOMY, comfortable booths or table and chairs makes for a relaxing environment. Allowing for lingering and conversation with good friends. We will DEFINITELY be returning soon!

First day of a new job Lunch!…read more New to this side of town and stopped in here for a little comfort of something I recognized. The Atmosphere - Well it was clean and tidy. Again there is little personality to most locations these days yet the functionality and the ability to clean quickly is at a premium. But, there is little about the restaurant that is comfortable or memorable. So this gets the standard 3 stars. The Staff - I had the good fortune to interact with several of the staff members this time. And ALL of them were extremely nice, kind, and friendly. They went out of their way to check on me several times and remind me that I could get a refill on my drink. They gall at the checkout even offered to bring me the desert that I had on rewards that was set to expire soon. Some of the best Customer Service I have seen in a while. - 5 stars. The Food - Well this is the number one reason to swing in. They have a number of great creations and options to pick more than one. They do let you customize a sandwich should you want. I think this is as good as it gets (unless you head to a "real" deli where YOU decide what is on the sandwich. This visit I had the Pick 2 (which is common) where I had a fantastic Club sandwich and a Chef salad. Pretty healthy over all. (I used extra dressing and ate brookie bites so scratch the healthiness). 4 stars Overall - This was a fantastic visit to an old favorite. The food could have just a little more wow... and by now you all know how I feel about the clean/institutional look and feel of eateries. A perfect lunch space. I'll be back often as they are good, healthyish, and close.

I historically love Jimmy Johns. This was different. The store didn't appear as clean as a…read morerestaurant should. I had to wait TWELVE minutes for my sandwich(after I payed and ordered and they had no one else waiting), once upon a time Jimmy John's motto was "subs so fast you'll freak". During that TWELVE minute I spent waiting for my sandwich I looked around and noticed the employees did not seem very clean at all in their actions and procedures. That should have been my sign to leave, but it was lunchtime and I was hungry. Big mistake. That sandwich made me ill for the next 24 hours. It started with a little sour tummy an hour after eating and transitioned into something much worse over the next day. Be aware of this location. Unfortunately that was likely my last JJ's experience.

We ordered the box lunches and our sandwich orders were made in very short time. The staff were very friendly and thanked us for our business. While I have no issues with the staff, the prices on Jimmy John's sandwiches are a bit high and the cookies we received were stale. Unfortunately we took our food to go so we didn't realize this until we returned home. I recommend Jimmy John's but the prices are a bit high. As for the cookies I'm sure this is a rare event, because I have had the cookies in the past with no issues.

Other reviewers have commented on the welcoming atmosphere, and I'm here to say - - they were not joking. Teeshia was patient with this first time patron. Describing the sandwiches I was interested in ordering. They did NOT disappoint. I had the Salmon Club. It was outstanding. The brioche bun was a perfect compliment to the flavorful salmon, perfectly crispy pork bacon and colorful lettuce, tomato and (YUM!) red onion. I was well satisfied with consuming half of the delicious sandwich. My husband devoured his Ruben sandwich and proclaimed it as great. #btw: the shop offers turkey bacon for those requiring a special diet. Thoughtful touch!
