    Chorizo omelet
    Ashley P.

    If you're ever in the area and craving breakfast, stop whatever you're doing and give Ginger's a try! I came in for the first time today and wow am I impressed! The chorizo omelet is FIRE and the staff is wonderful. They always made sure my coffee was full and I was taken care of. I was amazed that they weren't busier! Please come in and experience this place for yourself... I promise you won't regret it!

    Delicious breakfast! We loved everything that we ordered. Staff was friendly and quick to refill coffee and water. Very homey vibe with many options for both breakfast and lunch

    My intention was to take more photos than that, but it's fine. It's been a long time since I've made any sort of review here on Yelp, so yesterday's outing felt more than worthy. ^_^ During my partner's and my outing we decided to have breakfast somewhere neither of us have ever been and opted with Ginger's Restaurant. A cute, little family owned breakfast/lunch place we enjoyed Very much! We went with simple choices for our breakfast, but simple Often Is exactly what I need! He got himself a meatlover's burrito if I'm not mistaken and I ordered one of their classic plate builds. I was expecting the popular and typical fruit bowl of melon, strawberries and grapes but instead got a berryful-berry bowl ! As silly as this sounds, Because I got a bunch of berries I felt Super lucky! Raspberries and black berries aren't common in American-style breakfast diners, so I enjoyed those flavors I haven't experienced in a long time! That was a very pleasant surprise for both of us! ^_^ Other than the food hitting the spot and being prepared perfectly, their customer service was wonderful and comfortable for us both and honestly, we quickly decided it might be our new breakfast spot when eating out early in the day. The booth we chose was tighty and clean and the music playing above wasn't too loud or disruptive. Simple, delicious, respectful, and peaceful. I look forward to our 2nd visit in the future.

    Very good food, cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding and love the brunch color and KC artwork.

    Birthday cinnamon roll cake~~~        Yum!!!

    Celebrating a friends birthday was made extra fun at Ginger's. The delicious cinnamon roll made a fun "cake" for the birthday girl to decorate, Thanks to the management for allowing lit candles, and standing by with a pitcher of water, lol Our breakfast was outstanding, service outstanding, helpful, and friendly. Ginger's was a great choice to celebrate a special occasion.

    went out with my boyfriend, got the sizzlin cinnamon roll it was soooo hot we couldn't eat it for a good 10 minutes and by then the pieces were pretty much hard. i got the ginger skillet really good flavors slightly on the oily side though. wouldn't say it's worth coming back to but it was a good experience to try out.

    B13. Country Steak & Eggs
    Clint W.

    In search of chicken fried steak, they have country fried steak. And the coffee is $1.89 not $4.89 like the place down the street, breakfast and lunch lovers. The country fried steak was ok. There was a lot of chunks of gristle in it (the non chewable part of meat) the portion is huge. Always willing to try a place once.

    The Big 8 oz. Burger
    Dwynn E.

    A diners delight! Went on a whim one Saturday afternoon for a late brunch since I caught word of their breakfast. While waiting to order I saw this massive burger come out and instantly had to try it. If you're a fan of diners, drive-ins and dives, then you gotta try Gingers in Raytown. This place has perfected casual comfort food, and offers a variety of breakfast eats to burger feasts. *** #WhileUAreHere, I recommend you take a bite out of the classic cheeseburger. There's so much juicy, cheesy goodness you probably won't finish it all. Beware though, if you're a ranch lover like me you might want to pass. Some places have the secret sauce and some don't so go for the barbecue sauce or ketchup.

    This place doesn't disappoint. Great diner food, reasonable prices, friendly staff, clean and well…read morekept, and conveniently located with plenty of parking. I spent several years frequently eating breakfast at Dagwood's on Southwest traffic way when I was working over there in the late 90's and early 00's. I just moved into the area, and was delighted to find that a Dagwood's had opened up here a year ago. I was worried it would not live up to the memories of that little cafe, but it does, with more seating and a casual and friendly atmosphere. Walking back through all my old favorites, I have been pleasantly delighted so far! If I had a complaint... they don't have heavy cream for the coffee (but few places do). Thats a me problem everywhere I go. And I do have to say that the cinnamon roll is nothing to gush over. Maybe even a little dry. Otherwise, this is an immediate staple for myself and my family. It feels warm and comfortable and just a great place to meet for breakfast/brunch any day except Monday!

    "Great diner for breakfast and lunch"? Did we eat at the same place? Let me correct the record for…read moreanyone misled by this review. Portions: Calling them "small" would be generous. My plate looked like a kid's meal, and I left hungry. Not what I expect when paying adult prices. Overcooked food: My eggs were rubbery, the bacon was brittle, and the hash browns were burnt on the outside and raw inside. "Perfect" is a fantasy word here. Had to ask for bread yes, you read that right. They don't even bring toast with breakfast unless you beg for it. Basic diner fail. Attentive service? The staff was too busy chatting to notice empty coffee cups or check on food quality. And here's the saddest part: I'd rather go to IHOP and get the wrong order than come back here. At least IHOP fixes it without attitude, and you actually get enough food. I want to support local businesses. But not ones that serve overcooked, overpriced scraps and can't even remember to bring bread. This place didn't replace the old favorite it just lowered the bar.

I could describe every experience with this restaurant but I'll leave you with the previous few. And I know what you're thinking, if the food was so bad, why do you keep going back? Well, hope and optimism. Rooting for Roots! We want the local place to succeed, but we've come to the conclusion that what they really need in order to improve, is honest feedback. But part of me hopes that it changes nothing. And here's why... my wife and I love this place. But in a weird way... allow me to explain, imagine the place as a Saturday Night Live sketch where the staff, the menu and ambiance are unapologetically pretentious, but the food doesn't deliver on any level. It's pure entertainment. We have dinner and an inside joke. First of all, for the price, you naturally expect elevated dishes and excellent service. We both had a cocktail, a glass of wine with dinner, an appetizer, entrees, salad and desert. Around $250 with tip. Pricey, but reasonable if the place delivers. On one visit we had the duck, which was served undercooked and when we mentioned it to the waiter, she scoffed, "that's the way it's supposed to be served." So feeling duly chastised for our ignorance, we shut up and ate the duck. I don't know the organism involved, but my wife and I were up all night vying for access to the bathroom. Enough said. Things were dicey, but no trips to the hospital. Six months or so had passed and finally, last night we rolled the dice and tried Roots again. My wife said her dinner was fine. She had stuffed salmon, adequate, but not great. For me, It was between the steak and the pork belly. Now I had the steak before once and it was... well it was definitely a steak. I'm not going to say much about it except for this... if you like the taste of a good glass of water, order the steak. So having experienced the steak already, I ordered the pork belly, which is an extremely tasty and forgiving cut of meat in my experience. But somehow at Roots, they figured out how to prepare it poorly. Yikes! It was dry as a bone, but only in the places where it wasn't tough as shoe leather. It had to have sounded like a rock when it hit the plate. The naturally rich flavor was cooked completely out of it, and any surviving seasonings were successfully burned away during the cremation process. I was starving so I made a valiant effort at finishing it, but it took several glasses of water and an inordinate amount of chewing. My wife laughed at me the whole time. I offered her a bite but she demurred, quipping that it had been a long week and she simply didn't have the energy. It was served with a "slaw" that consisted primarily of a plain sliced onion and slices of flavorless apple devoid of seasoning or dressing. I honestly don't know how this dish made it out of the kitchen, let alone a chef's imagination. It has become a quest for my wife and me. Like the holy grail of dining experiences, only a few minutes from our home. Ever the optimists, we will just keep trying Roots again every six months or so and hope for better on each trip... or not. If you're looking for a unique dining experience, please try Roots. We want them to succeed so we can keep coming back and having these comically terrible experiences. If pretentious irony is your spirit animal, please try roots. And Roots, please keep trying. We will keep spending $250 bucks for "dinner" and a show. PS, to add to your experience, ask for a booth when you arrive for your reservation, they will look you up and down and politely say "no" as they walk you past 4 empty booths. No explanation...
