    Hanging out with the fam
    Marla C.

    So I looked at the reviews before I went to Sharks, and it had me a little nervous because there were lots of opportunities around the service. I went specifically for a reunion and just in our group alone, there were probably over 30 people, and the establishment still had it regular business on a Friday evening. I got there a little after 6 pm, and a large portion of my party were already there, and their drink orders had already been taken. Shortly after getting there, my drink order was taken. We ordered appetizers, jalapeno popper dip, mini burritos, loaded mushrooms, and wings. My sister ordered their KS strip. Considering how busy it was, our waiter came over pretty often to make sure we were OK even though they were slammed. The food came out hot and can I tell you for "bar" food, it was amazing!! I am so mad at myself for not taking pictures. Go for yourself if you want to play pool and eat some good food and I hope your service is as good as mine was.

    A fun way to enjoy the night. Great drinks , wings are great and the service is great. We had Brittany and she was perfect. But Erick the manager was amazing

    I don't know about you, but I'm always on the lookout for a great Philly Cheesesteak in the Midwest. Sad to say, the Pickin's are quite slim in my neck of the woods. I'm still trying to make it to Philadelphia to eat the best one there, but so far, I've only made it to Pittsburgh...oh, soooo close... The best I can do for my region of the planet is Sharks Restaurant and Billards. Upon the suggestion of an extended family member I rolled up to check it out. What a huge establishment with tons of space housing pool tables and big screen TV's everywhere! There is also a nice restaurant area and bar. Wow, what a treat! The server was chipper with a great personality. I ordered a regular Philly vs the spicy one and a house salad. The Philly was sooo good. The beef, peppers, onions, mushrooms and cheese were delightful! Omgudness, I've thought about it often since I left. The Lord willing, I've GOT to make it back for another one. The staff welcomed me and told me to come back. Other customers were friendly and one even jumped in a picture that was being taken of me. What could I say? I graciously let him in. The ambiance is fun and relaxing and a great date night spot. There were people shooting pool and I know some were regulars. Oh and the menu has quite a variety with daily specials. They have appetizers, comfort food as well as down-home cooked meals/dinners. What a delight! Want a great place to shoot pool or watch a sporting event with plenty of space and excellent food? Sharks Is The Place! Where have I been all of my life? So glad I gave them a try. My new Philly spot for sure...better late than never, huh?!

    The food here is good but my biggest complaint is when people reserve both areas for an event. We came here specifically to shoot darts but not allowed to since ALL of the dart boards are in both areas!! And what makes it worse is NO ONE is using those dart boards!! Why tf do you not put at least a couple of dart boards in another area in case you run into situations like this?! Fucking stupid af! Now we have to go to Side Pockets just to shoot darts.

    Appetizers....

    Shark's on Shawnee Mission is a huge entertainment center for all family members. Many pool tables, dart boards, foosball tables and televisions. Plenty of seating and space to enjoy Sunday football Pastrami sandwich and chicken wings were hot and tasty. House baked chips were excellent. Prices are very reasonable and table waitress by Kylie was exceptional. Great independently owned neighborhood business to support.

    Night out!

    I went here last night. It was a Saturday night at 10pm and they were super busy. My sister and I were there to shoot some pool. They did not have any openings when we got there so we ordered Chipotle flavored wings and drinks to wait for the crowd to die down. After an hour or so they were still full on the pool tables, so we decided to call it a night. I definitely would not recommend going on a weekend night because you would have to be aggressive enough to get a table (it's a first come, first serve style) otherwise you would probably be waiting for a while. Also, the girl's bathroom was filthy. The floor was really wet where you can actually slip and fall if you're not careful. We weren't sure if it was water or urine everywhere, which was a gross thought. I would definitely come on another night where it'll be less busy and cleaner. In the past, I've always had a good experience of being able to get a pool table within 30 minutes or so, even on a busy night, but this time wasn't the best experience.

    We had a good, quick evening meal. Our server was quick to stop by and greet us to let us know…read moreshe'd be back soon. I like having a moment to get settled in at the table. She came back and took our drink orders and was back in a short time to take our food orders. Mom went with the Cuban sandwich and cole slaw. I had the Patty Melt with curly fries. There were a few tables that mostly already had their food, so it didn't take long for ours to arrive. Mom's Cuban was not really a Cuban sandwich. It might have had a few ingredients that you'd see on a Cuban, but it was not a Cuban. It was certainly edible, but needs a new name to avoid confusing expectations and reality. I had a small taste of the red pepper aoli on the sandwich and I liked it; she wasn't a big fan of the sauce. She liked the cole slaw, but it did have a different "flair" to it that I can't exactly pin point. I'm not a fan of celery seeds, so my tiny taste of it won't count. My curly fries were typical out-of-the-freezer fries. I'm not surprised, but they seemed to be the bottom of the bag with mostly tiny pieces. They had been overcooked a tad, which I appreciate them not being soggy, but they were just a tiny bit overly crunchy (likely because of them being tiny pieces), so they were a bit dry and could have used salt. Our table didn't have salt, I'm sure I could have requested salt since I did see some at another table. I made do with the ketchup. My sandwich was good. My preference would have been for the bread to have been toasted/grilled. It maybe had been grilled a bit, but not in a crispy way I'm used to for a patty melt. The burger was tasty and the grilled onions and mushrooms were really good. The dining room has high top tables at the entrance, then low top tables and booths if you go down a few steps to another area. They do have a door that is at street level to the lower dining area for guests who have difficulty with stairs. We don't end up in Shawnee for meals very often these days, but we appreciated the good service. The food was not bad; there are things we'd order differently, but it certainly was edible and not of poor quality.

    The inside smells like cigarettes. The sandwhich needed more sauce. The tables weren't very clean…read morebut the beer was a fair price.

It was still pretty hot but with the breeze and sun starting to hide behind buildings it was pleasant. We were really lucky to get Mason as our waiter. He was great with the kids nailed our drink order just before the happy hour buzzer went off!! Then Mason made quite possibly my best waiter recommendation ever. He heard me say I kinda want to try something different but I really like ol'faithful to my wife. He quickly asked if he could recommend something if I was ok with spicy. I said bring it. The Jalapeño fried chicken fajitas is my go to when I order He says. Alright I will have that. Oh my!!! I found my new favorite little onion ring style jalapeños throughout a perfectly tender seasoned chicken fajitas sizzling plate.
