Wonderful food! This is a fantastic spot for a nice dinner with very authentic flavor. We have spent a lot of time in Germany and some of the options here were exactly the things we would get overseas! We enjoyed a fantastic bratwurst appetizer followed by schnitzel dinners. Grünauer had so many great options we'd love to try in the future as well. My only issue was after enjoying our appetizer and trying each other's meals I did not have the appetite for the sides that came with my schnitzel. We also ordered spatzle as a side with our meal, but it did not come out until closer to us being done eating because our waitress forgot to put it in with the original order. The sides that we did not eat as well as just a few bites of the spatzle I thought would be perfect for a lunch for us the following day. However, when she packed up our leftovers the smallest containers (like condiment containers) were used for our sides and we definitely did not get back even half of each plated item. For the price that was very disappointing.
You don't often find Austrian restaurants like this that aren't just beer garden. This elevated, but not pretentious, schnitzel house gave me an amazing surprise dinner during my road trip recently to Kansas City. Like I mentioned, ambiance was gorgeous. Felt like I was in a nice hotel restaurant. High ceilings, excellent lighting, Austrian decor strewn about, white tablecloth, all good. Service was pretty casual, though, which is just what I like. Real people having real conversations with you. The food was excellent. I had a special that I can't remember exactly what it was. It was a pork shank served osso bucco, on top of an excellent mashed potato. A wonderful tomato-based sauce was served on top, and this fall-off-the-bone shank was delicious and indulgent and just what I needed on this cold winter night. I also got to try a schnitzel with sides of spaetzle and warm red cabbage. Textbook. Crispy, juicy, delicious schnitzel. Creamy, herby spaetzel. And a pop of acid from the cabbage. This is one of the best meals on planet Earth, and this place did it right. No notes. For dessert, we chose a scrumptious little tartlet from their glass cabinet at the front of the restaurant. It was some sort of berry, and it came with a perfect little quenelle of cream on the side and a mint leaf. Great crust, great filling, just a great little way to end this meal. Overall, if you are interested in the menu at all, you will love it here. And if you're not interested in the menu, you gotta get out of the house more and come here anyway. What a perfect way to end my trip to Kansas City. I hope I get to come back one day.
Pros: Ambiance was so beautiful. The vibes were elevated Austrian beer hall. Dim lighting, white tablecloths. Very cozy and comfortable. The service was incredible, too. Very nice servers who knew the menu well and helped us pick the right things to eat. The food itself was exceptional. Very well cooked, strong flavors and textures, and a pastry cabinet for me to choose dessert from! Cons: Not a single con. A really perfect meal. Tips: Get a schnitzel. It was very good. And get a freshly baked dessert from their cabinet up front.
We had a very good meal here on a Monday night in Kansas City. Our server Chelsea was cheerful, prompt and knowledgeable. We started out with drinks- a Paulaner and a Gruner Veltliner. Both paired well with our dinner. We started with the bread service which were four different rolls with spreads. Very tasty but we could only eat two of the rolls. We then shared the Blattsalatte salad which had a light pumpkin seed oil dressing. Very good too. Finally we shared the daily special entree which was the Jager schnitzel with a poached pear. Very tasty! It came with the spaetzle which was okay but a bit overcooked. Overall is a very nice experience and we look forward to returning on our next visit.
Love this place! The atmosphere was great we came here before the World Cup Argentina vs Switzerland and people were very festive and were singing, the food was so delicious, we got the prefix special. Two item or three items with dessert. I would definitely come back here overall food, service and Ambika's great!
Brie was an excellent server!! Please ask for her. Wow! She was so nice and patient in explaining all the Austrian words, food, and flavors. We had a 5:30 reservation and arrived a few minutes early and were seated immediately by the fantastic and competent hostesses. We decided to have the soup of the day which was potato. It was not like American potato soup that is so heavy and creamy and fattening. This was a lovely light potato broth soup with lots of garlic and some celery. I thought the bowl was actually a little too big, even when my wife and I were sharing. So next time I will get a cup. We got the bread basket, which we were enamored with. I found a pit in the olive bread, but I guess that's to be expected. The whipped butter with paprika was nice as was the cream cheese type spread. We shared the Hungarian goulash for dinner, which Brie was nice enough to split for us on two separate plates. I would like to come back and try the pork shank on a Wednesday night. The atmosphere is dark wood and brick. The tables are far enough apart that you don't feel like you're on top of each other. I can see why Grünauer he is one of the top 5 restaurants on OpenTable in KC. Delish!!
I was blown away by this place. I came here for dinner with 3 other friends after having eaten a huge lunch together, so we decided to order lightly because we weren't that hungry. After tasting the food, I ended up devouring it anyway because it was so tasty! I'll mention that one of my friends grew up eating a lot of home-cooked German food so there were some dishes that she thought were executed differently than what she was used to. However, as an ignorant coastal American who doesn't encounter much Austrian and Central European food on a regular basis, I loved this place! We started with the four hausbrot ($10) and kürbisrisotto ($16). The breads were quite dense and paired well with the butter and quark spreads. We loved the risotto, which had a very earthy flavor from the squash and brie cheese. The sage was a really nice touch that added more herby flavors to the dish. For our mains, we split the wiener schnitzel ($24) and sauerbraten ($27). Both dishes were so good and great for sharing. I often start to feel overwhelmed when a deep-fried dish is too greasy, but the wiener schnitzel never felt heavy. The breading was crispy and well-seasoned. The side salads were refreshing and added a lot of variety to the dish. I enjoyed the contrast between the cold, creamy salads and the hot, crispy schnitzel. I loved the red cabbage in the sauerbraten so much that I've since tried to make my own at home, but I'm still working on perfecting my recipe. The savory beef complemented the spices, sweetness, and mild tartness in the cabbage, and the spätzle was the perfect carby vehicle to soak up all the sauces. I wish we got to try some of the pastries/dessert but we were too full! I'll have to come back another time to try them.
Made a last minute reservation for an early date night. So happy they were able to get us right in upon request. I've eaten here a few times, but my husband had not. This restaurant is absolutely romantic with its cozy atmosphere, especially with the Christmas tree and lights added in. Service was prompt, but a little pushy. We did have to ask for salt and pepper. I couldn't tell if she hadn't been a server long or had served for too long. When you have to upsell your own ticket, shows a bit of disconnect. Can we order drinks? Absolutely. Can we have some bread with our meal? Absolutely. The food was delicious and served quickly. The husband ordered the Beef Goulash and I ordered the Rainbow Trout (I have no idea who am I anymore), with the creamed spinach, which was everything I hoped it would be. We both cleared our plates. Would definitely visit here again. A great overall experience.
Stopped by for another Austrian bite to eat after watching Raiders of the Lost Ark at the Kauffman. The food is delicious! I opted for something I cannot pronounce, but turns out it was smoked pork belly, a wurst sausage, and a great ham steak. Add in a cocktail and the dark wood paneling. Gives a great place to sit and unwind over a long dinner. The waitstaff was, as always, playful and kind, while still keeping a level of sophistication. I already can't wait to go back. The only downside here is the expense. Though it is a fairly good value, it is not a GREAT value. And it loses a star for being a luxury-only restaurant.
I got the wiener schnitzel. It was alright. Undoubtedly good quality meat and I enjoyed the potato salad and cucumber salad that came along with it. The schnitzel could have used more seasoning though, I found it a little bland. What really brought down my experience though was the small portion size I got (see photo). Me and another guy sitting at the bar ordered the exact same dish and his came out with a schnitzel twice the size of mine! I'm aware that sizes of meat cuts can vary but seeing a major difference side by side annoyed me. The other guy's was so big that he didn't end up finishing it, while I finished mine and still felt a little hungry. Not worth it to me.
One thing I like about Restaurant Week is finding new places to eat. Grunauer is a case in point. I was impressed with the decor and atmosphere. The food was very delicious and the service was excellent. Our server was friendly and informative. We started our meal with a wonderful Cheese tartlet topped with a smoked salmon salad. I then chose the Raukensalat, followed by the Bohnischer Sahnebraten ( braised beef shoulder). Dessert was a Mohnkoch, poppyseed souffle. While full, I found that I wanted more just because everything was so good. I guess I'll have to return sometime, which won't be a bad thing.
As part of restaurant week I went with a group to Grünauer In the Kansas City West bottoms. Unlike a lot of downtown establishments, there is ample parking in this area. I started out with a Der Schmutzige which is a drink infused with kraut and beet juice with pepper vodka and it was fantastic. It was like drinking an upscale jolly rancher is the only way I can describe it. I also had a Golden Kolsch beer with my meal. For restaurant week they had a 3-course menu and I got the following items. The first course was soup and I got a parmesan semolina cream soup (I'm not going to try and type the actual name but it was a nice velvety chicken base soup. The second course was a beer braised pork chop with mashed potatoes and shaved brussels sprouts. The mashed potatoes were great but the demi-glaze on the pork chop was a little on the salty side and A couple other people who got the same thing agreed. The third course I got was a poppy seed souffle with with lemon anglaise. This wasn't my favorite, But I'm a sucker for trying new food. The souffle was poppy seed Forward but it was kind of a weird texture and had a lot of warm spices like nutmeg and cinnamon that seemed to clash on my taste buds. The The hostess and wait staff were really nice and the ambiance of the restaurant is really good, The plating of the food was very elegant and the location is great but The food was a bit hit and miss.
My friend knew I liked beer and so brought me to Grunauer specifically because he knew I'd enjoy the beer here. Since we had eaten already it was beer o'clock and we walked up to the bar, which not as grand as the main dining room was still impressive in its own way: clean and neat but still dim enough to still have that bar atmosphere. Despite being an Austrian bar the beer list was a little less focused, not necessarily a bad thing, appreciated the beers from Central Europe but I did focus on one of their beers from Stiegl, which is from Austria. I also tried a sour beer from Prairie and after mentioning how it wasn't to my liking, the bartender suggested a beer and was the best beer I had there. I appreciate when the guys aren't just there but actually have an opinion and have a stake in what they serve.
Grünauer!! Honestly, wasn't expecting to love this place so much! The pork schnitzel was phenomenal and so was their sauerkraut! Never had such delicious sauerkraut. I know, I know, people think it's gross. Not these ones tho, so definitely don't let it sit on the edge of your plate. Nothing we ordered was mediocre--even the beers! I can't say enough good things about Grünauer, and, to prove that, I'm back tonight!! read more
This place was really great. I was in town for a conference and a good friend of mine who lives in KC set up dinner. The food was fantastic. The sausages and mustard were very tasty. Every dish was delicious. The service was above par. The woman who took care of us speaks fluent German which was super helpful. She explained everything and was very friendly. I loved the ambience too. It was like a old train station almost. Old timey but also upscale. To be honest, it was nicer than I expected. I highly recommend this place. read more

I really enjoyed our visit to Grünauer! I'm from out of town and heard great things. I came with 2 locals who had highly regarded this spot so I was definitely looking foreword to it. It isn't often that I enjoy Austrian/ Centeal European cuisine so I was looking forward to it. We started with the rosenkohlsalat and I think that was my favorite thing! The shaved Brussels were amazing in the creamy maple dressing. I would definitely order it again. For my entree I ordered the Wiener schnitzel with the pork. The serving was massive! Cooked perfectly and had a great crispy flavor. It was served with potato salad and cucumber salad. I'm not a huge fan of warm potato salad, but if you are this will definitely be your jam. Our server was great and attentive. I enjoyed it here! read more

Love love love Grünauer! Went for my grandfather's bday - food was amazing as always, service better than last time, and Christmas decor a major bonus. Our server was attentive despite it being a busy night - food and drinks came out quick. Started with two apps (bratwurst and cabbage) and the bread basket. The cabbage was a huge hit (I thought the pickled mushrooms were the best part lols). Rainbow trout was perfectly seasoned and seared, tho maybe a little too oily. Wish the sides weren't so heavy, but I feel like they'd be chill about swapping them out. They brought out an apple strudel as a desert for my grandpa's birthday, which we really appreciated. The torte was a winner too (again). read more

Birthday dinner alert! I'd advise y'all to make a reservation if you're planning to check out Grünauer! Beautiful red brick wall ambiance with tables for both couples and large groups. For vegetarians: they don't have a vegetarian soups but don't worry they do have some entree and starter options. We ordered Hungarian beef Gulasch and Schwammerl Gulasch along with Red cabbage. Red cabbage was okay but we really loved Beef Gulasch and Schwammerl Gulasch. Hungarian beef Gulasch: Beef was so tender and the spicy paprika sauce served hot - perfect for the cold breezy night served with spatzle. Schwammerl Gulasch: mushroom Gulasch was so creamy served with a bread dumpling. Suprise of the night was Schokokuchen (Hazelnut chocolate soufflé) - You gotta try this!!! Our server Megan helped us with dessert and entrees selection. read more
Visited here from Maryland and it was meant to be because it was right off Baltimore Street!!! The parking is inside the threshold and there is plenty of parking in the area. Walking into the space, there is a fancy wine cooler and then some heavy wood doors that brings you into a kind of dim opening; for being during the day time. I asked for seating at the bar and the host followed to help and greet me right away. He was very nice with a unique hair do but who am I to judge, I'm bald. He immediately understood the time and brought me the happy hour menu but fulfilled my drink request immediately. After ordering from the HH menu, it came out very fast. The bartender was very knowledgeable with the items and the presentation was more than I imagined for an HH menu. I ordered the bratwurst and pomme frites. The bratwurst HH came with a fresh Dijon mustard with fresh shreds of horseradish...first time ever seeing this.... And it was bougie and deliciously fresh. The bratwurst was served with a warm pretzel. The pomme frites were comparable to an XL order of McDonald's fries but freshly cut and salted. It had 3 dips: curry ketchup, garlic aioli, and a special mayo. I wasn't a big fan of the ketchup but that's my opinion; you should at least try it. The garlic aioli and seasoned mayo were delicious. Everything was so delicious and the ambiance was old fashioned. I will definitely bring the family when I come back and try the rest of the menu. read more

Whenever in KC we have to go to Grunauer for a meal. Just drinks and appetizers but worth it read more
A standard staple in the Crossroads district this Austrian fare restaurant is a consistent deliverer of quality service and food. Our server Madison was attentive without being intrusive. Our food was delivered promptly. The servings are generous and they offer daily specials. The decor gives an old world vibe of casual elegance. read more

We ordered the Wiener Schnitzel, Apfelstrudel, and the Kaiserschmarrn. A genuine Austrian restaurant with amazing food, though for a bit of a price, it is still completely worth it. The staff was very attentive and kind and not too bothersome. The environment and ambiance is a tad bit of an awkward space but with a slightly more upper class feeling but not too much so. If you love German, Austrian, Hungarian, or Polish food, this place is 100% worth the stop. read more
A truly decorated German beer hall. The food was authentic and delicious. I do wish some of the items on the menu were notated as vegetarian friendly due to being with a group of people it would've been more helpful than having to ask the staff. Would highly recommend this place to someone while in the area. read more

I had the opportunity to eat at Grunauer for a date night with my Husband. Service was excellent. The food was amazing. And the Drinks were delightful. Hubby ordered the Draft Beer Steigel on Tap and it was great. I ordered the Taki Radler grapefruit cocktail and it was good as well. I ordered a dish called Schwammer Gulasch with mushrooms, bell peppers and a mash potato like ball with sauce and this dish was amazing. Hubby ordered Paprikaschnitzel and this was good as well, but mine honestly tasted better. We also started with Pommes Frites and the Pretzles. I used the Pretzel to dip i to my Gulasch dish and loved it. read more

First off, the architecture is stunning. The whole vibe is relaxed and the leather booths are very comfortable. The waiter was so welcoming and so nice. I chose to come to KC specifically to this location to celebrate my 40th birthday and this sweet man brought me desert with a candle. Seems silly, but I almost cried. The gulasch was absolutely delicious, the sauce reminiscent of chili, not too hot and very comforting. My partner got the SCHNITZEL SEMMEL (yes that's copy paste from the menu lol) and very much enjoyed it. But the best part was finding out his fries tasted delicious with the gulasch sauce. I could eat it as its own meal. The APFELSTRUDEL dessert was stunning in texture and taste, tho surprisingly not sweet at all. The only thing I think I missed, was ice in my water. If I lived in Kansas City, I'd eat here probably once a week. I will definitely be back. read more

One of the most consistent and quality places in Kansas City. I go here for Restaurant Week, every year, and usually take people who are new in town here. They can have a menu item that sounds so simple and basic, but it will always knock your socks off, every time. I don't usually think about Austria when I think great cocktails, but they also floor me with the drinks every time as well. The service is always great. Very professional and high-end, but never feels pretentious or inconsiderate. One of the best restauraunts in KC, for my money. read more
Everything was a 10/10. The cocktails: unique and flavorful. The food: filling, home style, and rich. The sauces: complimented everything perfectly. The atmosphere: full of laughter and good times. The service: quick and helpful. The dining area is large and beautiful. They also have a decent sized bar and outdoor patio. Make sure to get a reservation, but come here and be prepared to have a wonderful time read more

We came here for Mother's Day, just me and hubs. The restaurant is nice. We were seated immediately even though hubs did make reservations, we probably wouldn't have needed them for the time we came. I will say it got a lot busier as we were leaving. Our waitstaff was super nice. We got our drinks pretty fast. We both ordered 1st course options and let me tell you, the salad k had was the freshest thing I've eaten in a long time outisde of making my own. It just tasted like freshly picked. I loved that it had 4 kids of dressing on it for each side. It all paired well. Hubs had smoked salmon and it was so good. Perfectly cooked. Our main meals were equally as good! Everything was well seasoned and prepared to perfection. We also got desserts which we ended up bringing home becahee we were stuffed. We will definitely be back. You should eat here. You won't be disappointed. read more

My husband and I only stopped by for a drink but the server that came to get our order was rude. When she came by to take our order she ask if we were getting anything besides water. What made her think that was a good way to ask if we wanted to order anything. Now I will never know if the food is good. What a shame. read more

Is there a kids menu?
I'm not sure. You could always order a plain schnitzel for a child and I'm sure they'd like it, but this also isn't the most small child friendly place. I'd bring my kids for an early dinner but don't expect a provided coloring page, or souped up…
Whats the dress code or accept attire for this place?
At lunch, I saw everything from super casual (t-shirts and shorts) to business casual. For dinner, it seemed a bit more upscale, but not formal.
Is this place child friendly? I have a well mannered and well behaved 8 year old.
I have been bringing my daughter since she was 6 yrs old and never had any issues.
