We were driving through town looking for some food and stopped in to order to go. The lady who helped us was super sweet and the owner was a pretty good lookin guy. We ordered the tortellini siciliano, spaghetti and chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was very good. I had the tortellini and it was a very odd mix with ham, olives and pink sauce. It didnt quite "hit right" with the flavors together.

Garlic bread ( they generously re-fill our basket).  Hot off the oven.

We came here to celebrate our anniversary. It's our second time here. The food was outstanding! From their complimentary rolls, to heir salad dressing and to the main course. My husband ordered the lasagna and I had the chicken Florentine. The rolls were like little round French bread fresh right out of the oven. The oil with garlic dip we had really ties well with the bread. It didn't come as a complimentary but you have to get this and try it for yourself. Warning: very garlicky but oh so delicious! House made dressing came with the meal. That too was amazing! Flavorful and creamy with a touch of sweetness to it. I had the Cesar dressing and hubby had the ranch. The chicken Florentine I ordered was perfect! Creamy, flavorful sauce with mushrooms and spinach topped with grilled chicken cooked to perfection. My husband ordered the lasagna and he told me that it was delicious! Now, with that said, the one negative thing I need to mention is our waiter. He is an older guy who wasn't friendly at all nor said much. I thanked him every time he came around our table bringing our food or when I asked for more napkins. He wasn't engaging. Maybe it's just his personality. I think if you're working for tips, you'll do what you can to earn the big tips. This guy didn't seem to care. He wasn't the only one waiting on tables there. In spite of the server experience, I will not hesitate to recommend this place specially if you around town.

Yes. This is our medley of pasta. Lol
 The hand in the pic is for portion size.

I'm not here to bash anyone. I'm merely here to speak of my experience. To start, our waitress was extremely nice, but very inattentive. We were NEVER asked for a refill of our drinks during our visit and our first basket of bread rolls were over cooked and crunchy. Without saying a word, she brought us a second basket of rolls that were clearly not overcooked, but very doughy/undercooked, but still edible. The bread itself wasn't bad, but not Italian. Just simply basic dinner rolls with basic flavor. It surely wasn't garlic bread ​that you would expect to have at an Italian restaurant. The salad before dinner was also nothing to brag about. Just a choppy head of lettuce with a thinly sliced tomato slice, sprinkled with mozzarella cheese and topped with ranch. No color and very bland. For our main dish, we ordered the pasta combo! We were pretty excited because we read it was a large medley and the price was higher than the other options of pasta, so we thought it was a good choice. The medley was lasagna, manicotti, spinach ravioli, tortellini, and baked ziti! When our dish arrived, you can imagine our surprise when the portion size was that of a small meal. The lasagna had NO meat and one lasagna noodle on top smaller than half a lasagna noodle with melted cheese underneath it. No layers to it whatsoever. Once I found the spinach ravioli, it was one ravioli that was green from pureed "something", but it wasn't spinach. And if it was, it was mush, like artichoke and spinach dip squeezed in the middle of pasta. I've always experienced cooked spinach in the middle....not baby food. The tortellini and baked ziti is not fresh and it was obvious. I never did find the manicotti. ‍ But, that wasn't even the worst part! The most uninviting part was dining with friends and other patrons while someone went up and down the isle with a vacuum 3 different times as we were eating! That, to me, is unacceptable while eating out at a restaurant! We were there before 5:30 pm so it wasn't like they were trying to close. Let's finish off with this.... Our table consisted of 2 couples, a total of 4 of us, and she brought us one ticket! Didn't even ask if we were on the same ticket or not, which we weren't. Both my husband and I, and the other couple, ordered the exact same meal, but our tickets (and it's not a big deal AT ALL) were slightly different by a penny. Yes! A measly penny! My customer receipt and the business receipt was off by a penny on the taxes, which, again, is NOT a big deal. Example: Customer receipt said tax was $2.37 but the business copy said $2.38. Before someone thinks we may have ordered different drinks that changed the price...... we didn't. Both us and our friends ordered 2 waters and 2 teas, along with the same dinner plate. All in all, the food was edible. It's exactly the same thing I could've made at home with ragu, but I would've had layered lasagna with some meat for way less...and cheaper. Way over priced, even though the prices aren't bad, for mediocre food and a medley pasta portion made for a toddler. I hope your business does well in the future and I hope all the criticism helps you build a better clientele! All the best!

Chicken parmesan.

Came here for the first time. Food was absolutely delicious! The waiters were very friendly! The…read morevibe was great! This place is so good! Also, get the Beignets. They are the best!

After two days at the Grand Casino hotel for a home builders convention my dad and I were tired of…read moreeating at the casino. It was up to me to pick out a restaurant in Shawnee for dinner. I had my hesitations since I really didn't see anything on Yelp maps until I stumbled upon Theopolis. I did some research and concluded that we were eating here for dinner last night. I am so glad that we did! Upon entering it was quiet and not that packed. The decor was comfy and elevated for a nicer dining experience. Our waiter was really helpful with recommendations on the menu since it was our first time here. We got the artichoke dip to start, I got the chicken pot pie and my dad got the 8oz Fillet with a baked potato. Starting with the artichoke dip we were blown away with this appetizer. It came out hot with plenty of sliced toast points. The creaminess of the dip paired with the crunch of the toast points was out of this world. We were talking and this might have been the best artichoke dip that we have ever had! Would get this again! The entrees arrived and I got the chicken pot pie. The chicken pot pie was exactly what I needed last night. Shredded chicken, potatoes, carrots, herbs and spices in their house-made roux which made the meal hearty and comforting. The flaky puff pastry just was the cherry on top to balance the savoriness with a little sweet with the warm pot pie. No doubt I would get this again! Tried a bite of my dad's 8oz fillet. It was well seasoned and the temperature was cooked to perfection. I am not a big baked potato guy, but the baked potato that was served with his steak was amazing! Really good! We both finished our meals before we got the chocolate cake for dessert. It was a small slice but it was perfect after a big meal! Sweet and had the right amount of chocolate. Nothing was left on the plate after that. Yummy indeed! Theopolis was so good after the convention today we decided to come back for lunch before making our way down to DFW. I got the smash burger and my dad got the fish and chips. The smash burger was a proper smash burger with a flat patty and melted stringy American cheese paired with fries and a homemade thick ketchup and Theo's sauce. It's everything you want in a smash burger for a great lunch! Flavorful and I could not stop eating my fries with the home made ketchup and Theo sauce. The fish and chips were fantastic as well. I got a bite and it reminded me of the fish and chips that I had in Los Angeles in 2022. The beer batter around the fish was crisp and pairing that with the flakiness of the cod just was the perfect bite. I don't think you could have a bad meal here. Oh and a shout out to our waitress Grace who was managing multiple tables at once and provided us fantastic service! At the end Theopolis was the best choice when staying up here in Shawnee. We couldn't have had a better dining experience here since everything was fresh and surpassed our excitations. If we lived in Shawnee, Theopolis would be in our rotation weekly for lunch and or dinner. Reasonings for a 5 star review: The food was fresh and flavorful, waiters/waitresses had great service, the food was unique and stood out from other restaurants from the area. We hope to be back in the area to dine here again!
