Pork tenderloin (fritter) with regular (coated) fries
Alan B.

I don't usually review a restaurant after one visit. Any location can have a bad day, or an exceptionally good day, and these can be one-off experiences. However, my visit to the Jaudon Public House was so problematic that I feel compelled to say something. My first impression of the Jaudon Public House was very positive. It's a cute building on the corner of Holmes and 203rd St, reminiscent of a Texas Ice House. It was snowing today so I couldn't use the outdoor patio, but it looked like a fun place to spend a meal. And that's approximately where my good experience ended. Right off the bat, we learned that although Coke Zero is included on their menu, they have never offered it and have no intention of offering it. So why is it listed on the menu? Our server had no idea. We then placed our order, including an appetizer, and we didn't see our server again for 40 minutes, and our appetizer arrived at the exact same time as our entrees. The Shotgun shell appetizer is three spring rolls stuffed with either ham and Swiss cheese, or pepperoni and gouda. We ordered pepperoni and gouda - guess what they served us? Correct - ham and Swiss When I was ordering, I asked if the $16.99 pork tenderloin was "hand breaded" or frozen, and the answer was "frozen - but it's big enough for two meals and it's one of our most popular offerings." I had my heart set on ordering the pork tenderloin so even though it wasn't hand breaded I decided to try it anyway. For $16.99 it had to be good, right? Well, it was fairly big as our server had indicated, but not huge by pork tenderloin standards. And it was rather dry and nearly tasteless. The pork tenderloin at Culver's isn't quite as big but it tastes better and at $6.19 it's a MUCH better value. At the top of the burger section of the menu it reads "Choice of Brioche or Pretzel bun." My wife chose the pretzel bun for her Fiesta burger. Then as you might guess, not only did they not serve her burger on a Pretzel bun, buy they charged us $1.99 for the bun she didn't receive, the bun that we assumed came with the burger (at no extra cost) because the menu didn't say differently. We didn't realize all this until we had already left the restaurant or we would have said something. Did I mention that my wife's Fiesta Burger was supposed to come with Queso on the burger, but they were out of queso, so they served it with pepperjack instead. And our server asked how she wanted it cooked - my wife said "medium." The burger she received was "well done." I wonder - why do you ask how we'd like the burger cooked, if you're just going to burn it? According to the menu, the onion rings my wife ordered were supposed to be "Whiskey Battered." They weren't. They were the same type of breaded onion rings you could purchase in the frozen section of your local grocery store. And one more little complaint - the "regular" fries weren't regular, they were coated fries. In my opinion, "coated fries" are not "regular." Based on the look of the building, I may have gotten my hopes up too high. The offerings at the Jaudon Public House are basically bar food, but beware - the menu is misleading, they don't offer some items which are listed on the menu, they run out of some items, and they may charge you for items you assumed would be included in the price. We were truly hoping that this cute little place could become one of our go-to's in the future, particularly when the weather is nice enough to use the patio. Unfortunately, I'm afraid that's not going to happen.

Food is good and a fun spot tucked away close to South Johnson county/Belton. Servers are also friendly.

Really cool little spot for those of us on the outskirts. Good food and great staff. Also a good place to watch a game or sit on the patio.

I was in the area and stumbled upon this cute little spot. It happened to be open so I went inside…read more I loved all the plants and the decor. The space is smallish but they do have bar seating in addition to seating throughout. The service was friendly and the drinks were great. They don't offer food, but they do offer cocktails, beer, wine, and mocktails. I went on a Sunday and they have a special menu called "Almost Monday." It's a smaller, simpler cocktail menu and the prices are very fair compared to other cocktail spots. I tried the Caipirinha (pineapple) and the Negroni sour. Both were good. My favorite between the two was the Negroni. It had a pretty color and wasn't too sour or strong. I'd def recommend it and get it again. Definitely stop in and check out this cute spot in Shawnee.

When you arrive there is parallel parking available outside the bar. When you walk in you'll feel like your bright, vibrant, and feels incredibly welcoming. Also, they have some really fun drinks as well that have been thoughtfully put together. We ended up sitting at the bar and I started with the Reformed Porn Star (vanilla vodka, bronson's tropical milk punch, passion fruit, Prosecco, citric acid and popping boba) which was by far my favorite drink and felt like I could have drank a couple more of these. Second I tried the Neo Cosmo (white rum, strawberry, cacao, coconut, rose hip, lime, bubble) which was good and was a fun drink with an ice cream shaped cup and a bubble on the top (meant to look like an ice cream cone). If you are in the area, this bar is a must try, the bartenders were awesome and took good care of us. Between the creative cocktails, fun atmosphere, unique floral setting, this was a memorable experience I'd definitely return for.

We were able to do a walkthrough and trial run ahead of time, and they thoughtfully helped us design a layout that made perfect sense for our intimate 40-person reception. Their guidance made the entire space feel intentional, comfortable, and beautifully put together. The space itself is absolutely stunning--elevated, warm, and perfect for a smaller, more personal celebration. When we arrived after our ceremony, the room flip was seamless and everything was exactly as planned. But what truly set Verdigris apart was the service. The staff was phenomenal--attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our night special. Every detail was handled with care, and we were able to be fully present and enjoy the evening with our guests. We reserved the space for three hours, and it was 100% worth it. If you're considering hosting a private event--especially a wedding reception or intimate gathering--this is the place to do it. We would choose Verdigris again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend.

Great neighborhood lounge -- the specialty cocktails are excellent and worth the trip on their own…read more Seating is genuinely comfortable, which isn't always a given at cocktail bars, and the patio is a nice bonus when the weather cooperates. Easy to find, good vibe overall. Only knock is price -- you're looking at $20-25 a drink, so this isn't a casual weeknight spot unless you're not watching the bill. Would go back for a special occasion or date night.

What makes them stand out is the QUALITY ingredients and overall care that is taken in making delicious food. We ordered hot wings, burgers, onion rings and their buttery chocolate chip cookie for dessert. They use tallow to cook their foods which is such a wonderful benefit. We also enjoyed their kombucha. Next time I'm in the area I'm looking forward to try their pizzas! The owner and staff were very welcoming as well.

It's a very cute smallish spot in a city with a surprising number of decent restaurants - but every city could use one more, right? They have a few tables in the dining room with a fast-food style ordering counter, plus three more tables in a patio area that blends seamlessly into the parking lot. Unfortunately, the promise of this new establishment didn't quite live up to my expectations. I ordered the 1/2 lb Big Daddy Burger for lunch. The burger was shaped more or less like a meatball so while there was plenty of beef, it didn't come close to covering the bun so the proportions didn't seem to fit each other. They use homemade pickles which some people would probably really like, but I'm more of an old fashion Vlasic hamburger pickle kind of guy. On the plus side, you could definitely taste a distinct charcoal flavor in the meat, similar to what a burger at an Independence Day picnic should taste like. My curly fries were fine, but nothing more than what you would purchase in the frozen food section of the grocery store. My wife ordered the wings which are roasted, fried, and then thrown on the grill. It sounds like they went to extra trouble to make the wings, but they were on the small side (as many wings are these days - except for the giant wings at The Peanut locations in the KC area) and the taste wasn't noticeably different from the typical appetizer wings at your nearest sports bar. I've heard that pizza is really their thing and that is what we had hoped to order, if their pizza oven had not been on the fritz. They've only been open a short time, maybe a month or so, and this is the second time I'm aware of that their pizza oven has been non-functional. We plan to give them another chance on a future visit when they get their pizza oven up and running again. But until then, while the food was definitely OK, it's not a place I plan to rush back to.
