BBQ Brisket Nachos - Half
Thay L.

This place never disappoints! We went in as an impromptu date night without the girls and it was great as always. And just in time for happy hour menu, which is great and even more affordable than the regular menu. I had to try the Quesadilla Nachos from the happy hour menu and let me tell you, they were awesome! Highly recommend! The staff was great as always and the ambience is perfect to talk and enjoy our food. Great date night spot!

Half dozen Buffalo Wings   Half Dozen
Allen G.

Another great spot for wings. Whole wings and the ranch was great. Blue cheese was different but edible. Service was fast and friendly. College football was on every tv and was great to watch. Very cool sports bar and grill.

Wings and Side Caesar Salad
Amanda W.

The wings are ginormous, and they are the ones that drums and flats are together which is top tier, IYKYK, and still flavorful even jumbo. The sauce isn't too spicy. Loved the ranch. The side Cesar is a bit pricey as $7 for the size but was still yummy.

Barbecue wrap and Mac n cheese side
Amy J.

Excellent wings. Large size and they come in sweet chili, barbecue, buffalo, or "tiger cry" sauce options. House made ranch here is delicious. The Mac n cheese was so thick the sauce stuck to my lips in a strange way but it was flavorful and I love the rotini. They made my barbecue sandwich into wrap form which was everything I wanted! Juicy brisket and bbq sauce in a grilled wrap. Loud in this bar and definitely made for watching sports.

Found my way traveling on my own from CT to KC, I apparently had some time over 5 days and had to scout other stops allow the way and this just so happened to be my last stop before jet setting back to NE. Summary: # 1. Joyce, thank you! Great service # 2. Food, very good. I enjoyed my chicken cilantro tacos and fries. Best before you get on a flight # 3. Good place to stop prior to MCI from KC. Get gas, then get a bite to eat and enjoy the local atmosphere on my way back home. It's better than comfort food. Stop by Peanuts Good stuff.

Bird Bomb in the forefront, Roadhouse Burger in the background.

Hubs and I had lunch here today. I had the Bird Bomb and he had the Roadhouse burger. We both had tots as the side. He has some beer and i had a margarita. Food was good for the most part. Hubby said his burger was a little over cooked, but he enjoyed it. The Bird Bomb is like a tenderloin style smashed chicken breast, which i think was great. It had this spicy/sweet slaw on it. Very good. Tots were extra crispy . The margarita was mostly mixer, so i probably wouldn't buy another one of those. Overall, service was great, nice and clean inside. It's a sports bar, so there were of course TVs everywhere. We will go back for sure.

Looking toward the front of the house from my seat...

!!WORLD-CLASS WINGS!! We visited The Peanut after my wife had been there with friends from work. She was sure I'd enjoy the wings and she knows me well. The wings are huge and I barely got six down. I wasn't a fan of the house sauce as it is vinegar based which I don't care for but that's just me. The atmosphere is loud - it's a sports bar - and it was busy but the wait staff got it done. It did take a while (20-25 minutes) for the wings to come out which they tell you up front so do keep that in mind. If you find yourself jonesing for wings, The Peanut should be at the top of your list. I certainly recommend it!

Wings 1/2 dozen
Becky C.

A little wait for the wings but definitely worth it! The BLT WAS DELICIOUS! Great service!

Burger and onion rings
LaMecia M.

Great local bar. Came here while visiting family because our uncle has been going here for years. The wings are MONSTER size. Probably part of why they say they are the best wings in KC. They will definitely fill you up. I also enjoyed the onion rings. They weren't dried out and the batter was nice. Enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere. Servers are nice even when really busy which they were. If the kitchen is backed up, expect a wait for your food but when it arrives you will likely not care.

Unexpected gem…read more Dropping a friend off at the airport and had a few hours to kill. Neither of us like chain crap. Sadly, it was a Sunday so we had issues finding a place. Arthur's was closed, Dirks is permanently close...thankfully stumbled upon Gators. Crowd was small, it was 6 on a Sunday. I am very sensitive to smoke, and honestly barely smelled any. Guy a few seats from me was smoking and I couldn't tell. Maybe because I'm congested from a cold still, I dont know.but the smoke really, surprisingly didn't bother me. Waitress with dark hair was very kind and quick. I ordered the G plate and my friend ordered a chef salad. Now this is bar food, of course the bar will be set low. Everything exceeded my expectations. The salad was HUGE and piled high. It had onions, cheese, tomatoes, and my friend said "damn, there must be a half pound of ham on here!" Served with crackers and Tabasco, he was in heaven. Had a huuuge cup of ranch too. I just wanted greasy. It's been the holidays, I just wanted one more night of bad food. I figured I was going to get typical frozen food and was ok with that. The G plate was so good! The mozzarella sticks and tenders were delicious, basic-hard to mess up but delicious. But the shrooms and the onion rings were both superb!! I think they were both beer battered. The shrooms were slightly sweet and really unique. The portion was plentiful for the price. The honey mustard was fantastic, as was whatever ranch they use. Overall for 5 drinks and 2 meals it was $33. Can't beat that price! Wish I lived closer, looks like they have a great set up for karaoke

Me and my wife love trying new places, we came here, there were probably about 20-30 people…read morethere, we stood at the front for a while and after everyone stared at us for a while, and we realized we're not going to be seated, we went and st ourselfs. We sat there and no one ever came and asked if we wanted anything to drink, hell the staff did not even acknowledge we were there, and after 10-15 min we just got up and walked out and went around the corner to pizza shop, which saved the day, needless to say we will not try this place again.

As a pescatarian, the crab cakes and Brussels sprouts were my usual order here ! a solid combo…read more They've changed the crab cake recipe three times now. The first two tweaks were manageable, but the third change (after KC hosted the World Cup) finally lost me, and I haven't been back since. The current version is two small, lighter-colored crab cakes not as fried as usual , with a very strong cilantro taste that overpowers everything else. If you're a cilantro fan, maybe that's your thing, but for me it completely misses what a crab cake should be. The crab itself should be the star, not the herbs. Hoping they bring back the old recipe, because this used to be a happy hour staple.( mozzarella sticks are still bomb though)

I used to love this place when I lived here 16 years ago. But something has changed when we came…read moreback. This particular location rebranded and is now called five four restaurant and drafthouse. They remodeled the inside and it's actually quite nice and much more roomier than before. The front of the restaurants is regular seating and the back of the restaurant is the bar area and patio. It's quite nice how they separated it. The Food is good, it's mostly the same food with a few additional items in the menu. But is super slow. We've come to this location about 4 times since moving back to Kansas City and every time, service is super slow. We usually go on a weekday around 4:45-5 pm for dinner. And it almost always takes at least 40 minutes or more for our food to come after ordering. The servers rarely come back to check on us. We always have to flag down whoever we see to get our server to come back for ordering, or getting more dressing, or getting our check. We love coming here because it's close and convenient to our home and the food is good, but might have to come up with another option if service is always like this every time we come.

Shoutout to our waitress Darian -- she was sooo great! We were a large party and she kept…read moreeveryone's orders straight, stayed on top of everything, and was friendly and attentive throughout. That kind of service for a group our size is not easy and she nailed it! Music was a bit too loud considering the place wasn't too busy, but nothing that ruined the experience. Food was on point! We had the Loaded Nachos and Bone-in Wings from the appetizer menu. They came out quick and so good! The sports bar atmosphere I'm sure is awesome during game days. No complaints and highly recommended!

The food was great and the drinks were good, but the payment system made the experience…read moreuncomfortable. It seems like everything is tied to a specific server, so if you move around the restaurant, go upstairs, play pickleball or volleyball, or sit in a different area, you have to keep track of who originally served you. That can be confusing for customers and seems stressful for staff too. I felt embarrassed when I went downstairs to pay for the beers we had before going upstairs, and the waitress came down worried as if we had walked out without paying. I was honestly just trying to do the right thing and close out our bill. Then the bartender/manager asked me if I could point out who the original waitress was, but I didn't see her on the floor. That made me feel like I was being treated as the problem, when I was simply trying to pay. Overall, the food, drinks, and atmosphere were enjoyable, but the payment process could be much smoother. A more flexible system would make it easier for guests to move around and enjoy the space without feeling awkward or accidentally causing confusion.
