    Used a gift certificate that also got us 2 $10 certificates to use after 1/1/25. Unlike some times past, they were very liberal about substitutions for asides. Only negative was that the stuffed chicken was just slightly dry.

    We had not been to J. Gilbert's for a number of years. We found we had been missing one of KC's most wonderful dining experiences. The meal was outstanding and delicious with excellent steaks cooked strictly to order. J. Gilbert's has a large wine list which features varieties of all types at many price levels. Service was very, very good and great service is hard to find these days. The physical beauty, warmth and vibe are welcoming and charming. The place reminded me of how steakhouses used to be and how they should be now for today's guests.
