    We had brunch here on a Saturday morning. I highly recommend making reservations. Our server was wonderful and was great about checking in. The tables were all very close together making things a bit cozy. I had the quiche of the day. I would not recommend this or get it again. The quiche was very dry and had no flavor. If we go back, I will try something different.

    Great menu and atmosphere! This was my second time here and I'll be coming back again for sure. Highly recommend the gnocchi, steak au poivre, and egg plant fries. I'm normally a meat & potatoes type person, but I think their gnocchi is absolutely amazing. Came here for a birthday, and they ensure to make it an occasion with exceptional service and special treats. They also have regular sales and specials. I would've taken more photos......but that thought was lost once the food was sat on the table.

    Finally made my way here. What a cozy but airy place. Staff was attentive and friendly. Good was good. I had the chorizo burrito and a vanilla Italian soda (very delicious). Excuse the. Lack of photos. We sat down, chatted, and ate before I remembered to snap. You can eat breakfast or lunch all day....well until 3 PM. I will be back.

    We met our friends here for dinner. They are 30+ year residents and live by the Plaza. They had never heard of Room 39, which been in my Yelp bookmarks for over a year. We were going to a show at MTH and decided to meet here for dinner beforehand. We snagged at 5 PM reservation a few days before and were greeted warmly on a hot summer afternoon by the host. Our server was Alex and she was magnificent beyond words. Her service and insight were magical. With the deft touch, she guided us through the menu and answered all of our questions. We will most certainly ask for Alex when we return. You may wish to do the same. You will not be disappointed. We had some delicious appetizers, including their tasty crabcakes, and the Room 39 salad was nice. Very fresh ingredients and not swimming and dressing. My wife had the steak au poivre, which I got a few bites of and it was delicious! I had the gnocchi with pesto cream sauce, which was divine. One of our friends enjoyed the pasta carbonara very much, and her husband loved the halibut. They shared crème brûlée for dessert and we had the chocolate mousse. All four of us loved our desserts. We recognize that Room 39 is on par with some of the finest restaurants in Kansas City. It's a smaller venue, but their service is impeccable and so is the food. It's a farm to table restaurant so the menu rotates and changes with the seasons and availability of ingredients. I love that! We will most certainly return.

    Best breakfast potatoes in Kansas City. Also great value for the money. Lovely atmosphere.

    Loved this place! We decided to try Room 39 based on other reviews we read. It was well worth it. The atmosphere is romantic but relaxing. My wife loved the table settings. The service was very good. Very friendly and attentive. We both had the filet with scalloped potatoes and brussel sprouts. The steak was cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The scalloped potatoes were the best I've ever had. I can't believe it took us so long to try this place, but it won't be the last.

    Dining in this local spot which was popping. Started off good with our order taking promptly. My mimosa landed shortly thereafter and it was delicious. We waited patiently before noticing another table whom arrived after us getting served first with same entrees. Then ours came out : avocado toast & fruit cup and crab Benedict with side of potatoes - lukewarm. The toast was grilled a bit too long where it was tough and burned around the edges. My order was incorrect as I asked for over medium eggs vs poached. The waiters were all apologetic and offered new eggs and toast but we declined. It was already a long wait. Prevalent in my dish was panko breading of the crab cakes. The potatoes had a grill taste not much flavor either. We were grateful for the offering to correct things, comping the avocado toast and OJ upon getting our bill.

    We were looking for somewhere different for brunch. Not the hotel or a chain. Somewhere in a neighborhood with a great vibe...we found it at Room 39. My daughter and I enjoyed lattes, oh my goodness good mimosas, and incredible salmon scramble (sod, delicate, with crispy potatoes) and a salmon salad (crispy skin, local cheese, quinoa.) Our server Maggie made it the funnest experience...she is just lovely.

    Breakfast is amazing. Definitely will be back. Service was so good. Ted and Anthony are awesome. The coffee is a custom brew and every dish on the menu has been chosen with attention and purpose.

    Came in on a slow Monday night and had exceptional service and food! I can't believe we haven't been here before! We ordered the brussel sorout toast and it was so yummy. The flavors went really well together. I stepped out of the box and got the Chorizo Crusted Cod and it did not disappoint! My husband got the steak (sirloin maybe? I have no idea lol) and it was cooked to his preference which is always important to us. The dessert was fun and funky. Only disappointment was the menu being a little different than the one online so I wasn't able to get something that sounded really good, but that didn't ruin anything and we just opted for something else! The price was very fair for the quality of food and service we received.

The reason why I am not giving this place 5 stars is because of the lack of customer service. Both the cashier and barista were not very friendly. They were brisk. I tried to engage in a converation about their pastries and they seemed disinterested and just wanted to move on to taking orders and making drinks. They weren't even busy. I arrived an hour after they opend and the place was 10% full. The food was good. I got the avocado toast and with a littl more salt and hot sauce; it was delicious. The place also smelled amazing. I was engulfed in the aroma of cinnamon, sugar and butter and roasted coffee. I could not have been happier except for the lack of warmth and feeling of connection and a sense of community one often gets in an independent coffee shop. The hot latte I got was good. Oat-milk was $1.25 extra which I thought was a bit steep for Kansas City. But I guess prices/inflation affects us all. The ham and cheese croissant I got was super delicious. It was better than the avocado toast. I would get the croissant again. The rooftop area was a vibe. There were more people up there talking so it had better energy. I think on the first and second floor, most people were just working and on their laptops, so it was overall very quiet.

A few months ago my sister and I hosted a baby shower for our other sister and after looking around an options we decided to go with McLains. It was a smaller group, and we were doing a brunch theme, and our sister LOVES sweets. That paired with our desire to support local, and our shared love of McLains, this was just the most obvious choice. We ended up ordering a cake and first of all I have to say their cake flavor choices are insane - I think we settled on a chocolate cake with peanut butter filling (YUM), but I don't think you can go wrong here. We also ordered one of their pre-set pastry bundles for pick up and honestly everything was wonderful. I think I placed the order about a week out and it was ready when I came to pick it up. What pushed this experience into five star category for me? Just the friendliness of the staff, the serving tools they send you home with, and how thoughtful everyone was. The food was also really just exactly what we needed and it was so good there were hardly any leftovers, I think the kids cleared us out by lunch! At any rate, if you're on the hunt for a great spot to support for your next brunch event consider McLains - they won't let you down!

Then paired with a cold brew mixed with Coca-Cola and topped with a cherry-vanilla cold top. Phenomenal. Just as incredible was the bakery case. After a tough decision making process, I took home a cookie, Lemon Goat Cheesecake, and blueberry pop-tart.

The biscuit sandwich was oozing with cheese and sauce so I ended up cutting into it with a fork and knife. The pear compote had an apple pie filling vibe to it, which was almost too sweet for me even though it went well with the salty smoked ham. The nutty bitterness from the fontina added a little bit too much contrast for me. This would be a good choice for people who like sweet and salty things. Overall, each component was tasty, but this particular sandwich wasn't exactly my preferred taste! The oat milk latte was good! Nice and foamy with a good amount of bitterness from the espresso. I was curious about their huge pastry case and would love to try those in the future.
