This small restaurant in a food court sandwiched between others was a place I've been meaning to…read moretry, but I waited until I had another stop nearby. The indoor mini mall it's inside looks fairly new, with a nice upbeat atmosphere. I wasn't expecting to find authentic African food in Lenexa. African Dream features Nigerian specialties like fufu, and that also looked tempting, but one good meal was my objective. My server Ria was gracious and helpful. She helped me select a meal for takeout, and I had a 20-minute-plus drive to reach home, where I devoured this memorable meal (had at a reasonable price) in less time than it took to drive home. I had the brisket platter with sides (served in a takeout container). The brisket was, in a word, delicious! I'll be back for sure. The cabbage and rice dish sides were nice, too, and they complemented the brisket just fine. I'm glad that I arrived in time for the last small portion of their brisket. It looks like it usually sells out at lunch, but it's Monday and the entire food court wasn't busy. It was tender and smoky, with a light au jus style sauce. Yum. Parking was just okay on the street, and most spots were taken around my near-5 p.m. arrival, but I lucked into a parallel spot very close. My only tip would be if you're a brisket hound like me, park and arrive earlier! I shall return! (5 stars!)

I was hopeful. And then I saw the signs that said NOT SPICY. I got the smoked chicken. The chicken…read morewas really good. However, the potatoes and the other side dishes were bland. I was very disappointed. I had such high hopes make it spicy!!!!!! we can handle it. The chicken portions were very small also. Meat portion with three sides was $13 plus tip. Also is the cuisine Ethiopian? There were no descriptors.

My friend and I met for Happy Hour at Whole Harvest Kitchen, and we had a MARVELOUS time!…read moreOur server was Sofhia V, and she was the soul of hospitality. When we told her it was our first visit to the restaurant, she took the time to carefully go over the menus with us (regular, happy hour, and drinks), providing her recommendations when we asked. Her guidance was spot-on-target! For drinks, I had a Mindful Chai and my friend had the 3-Beverage Flight (Golden Hour, Heart Says Thanks, and Tres Raices). My chai was the BEST I have ever tasted (and I order chai every chance I get!), and my friend loved her 3 drinks (she said Tres Raices was her favorite). For our food, we split an order of the Not Queso Dip and the Avocado Tostadas. We were both very impressed by how fresh the ingredients were, and the blend of flavors in each dish that created a unique and yummy taste. The Kitchen has an open, airy layout that inspires deep breathing, while the arrangement and spacing of tables still provides for intimacy of conversation and minimal ambient noise. Sofhia checked back with us several times during our meal to ensure we had everything we needed and were thoroughly enjoying our food and drink (we were!). It was a delightful meal, and we thank Sofhia, the kitchen staff, and everyone at Whole Harvest Kitchen for such a lovely time. We'll be back!!

*Wonderful Staff* *Beautiful Space*…read more*Delicious Food* What else could you want?? We visited for lunch and kept it simple - two apps and an entree. What a treat! We didn't sample, but next time I'd like to try a flight of their wellness drinks! The LETTUCE CRUNCH WRAPS (soy-glazed jicama & tofu, lentil, pickled veg, walnut, cilantro, sesame dip) were an absolute favorite. Highly recommended! The texture was very well balanced. Silky smooth butter lettuce and a delicious sauce on the side, although it truly didn't even need it. The AVOCADO TOSTADAS (blue corn tostada, guacamole, quinoa, white bean, radish, pickled red onion, super seed) were yummy, but our least favorite of the three. Instead of a thin layer of mashed avocados, I'd honestly just put a few nice slices of avocado for the bulk of it. Taste was lovely! It is a totally cold dish, fyi. The HARVEST WOK BOWL (split pea-fu, beluga lentil, farro, snap pea, greens, brown rice, daikon, cashew, ginger-scallion sauce) was completely phenomenal. I could do without the split pea-fu, but it probably added some great nutrition! The FLAVOR and texture of this dish was so so good. I can't even right now. (As my teenager would say...) Enjoy!!

J&K is truly a hidden gem, hidden behind a small gas station in North Kansas City. From the moment…read morewe walked in, we felt welcomed and felt cozy inside. The restaurant was clean and had plenty of seating. The walls were simply and beautifully decorated with hats, Ethiopian artifacts, and other cultural pieces, which added a warm and authentic cultural touch. They offer an extensive menu with many rich and comforting dishes. We started with Macroni soup which was a part of our main orders - included a very comforting overcooked pasta with lentils and minimal spices. For appetizers, we ordered the lentil sambusa since the chicken ones were sold out. For our main course, we chose the all meat combo platter with two sides. It included beef tibbs, lamb, and chicken, along with red and yellow lentils. Our friends ordered the all veggie combo platter, which came with red and yellow lentils, greens, cabbage, and beetroot. All the veggies, lentils and meats were served on super soft, tangy, and very flavorful injera. The beef tibbs was the clear winner among the meats. It was hearty, rich, and had a nice spicy depth. The other meats were also cooked well, with mild spices and comforting flavors that felt light and healthy. The vegetables were mostly chopped into small pieces and lightly steamed/ blanched, then tossed with salt, pepper, or minimal seasoning. The lentils balanced the plate perfectly with their mild taste and buttery, smooth texture. Overall, the food felt very wholesome, healthy and well balanced and colorful with a generous spread on the platter. The service did not feel rushed and our server was very sweet and attentive. That said, it did take about 30 minutes for the food to arrive after ordering, as everything was being prepared fresh. If they improve the wait times then it can be a win win situation for everyone. Take out can be faster option for you if you do not prefer to wait or are short of time. Overall, J & K offers an authentic and traditional Ethiopian Cuisine taste and thats why this is a must visit restaurant.

This was my first time ever having Ethiopian cuisine. The moment I walked in I was greeted by my…read moreserver who told me I could sit wherever I wanted. Since it was my first time, I had a hard time figuring out what I wanted to order. My server helped me choose what I wanted after I asked some questions, and gave me helpful insight. I landed on the beef doro wot with injera and baklava for my dessert. My server was really kind and talked to me about Ethiopian cuisine and the specifics about the food. The decorations in the restaurant are also very nice and traditional. Amazing place. Would come back
