Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Crossroads / Freight District / Boulevard

Grand Street Cafe has a level of food quality that is top tier! I've been a customer for over a decade and I've never had a bad food experience! This was a belated Valentines Day dinner and it didn't disappoint! Everything from my appetizer, salad, and main course was excellent! As an added value the cost was very affordable especially for the quality of the meal! I will most definitely be back!

My girlfriend and I went to Gram & Dun the Saturday after Valentine’s Day for a brunch date. We set reservations and our experience was great. Our server Sophie was great and the food was good. We would definitely go back.

What a wonderful find! Was visiting KC to see my daughter (from out of state) and her boyfriend (also from out of state) and circumstances enabled us to be able to all get together for dinner. Realizing it was Valentine’s Day and didn’t have a prior reservation, I turned to Open Table to see what might be available near us. Union on The Hill had a time available so I grabbed it. It did not disappoint! We started with specialty cocktails, Havercamp for us ladies (you had us at grapefruit vodka) and a Saguaro for the gentleman. We shared the large portion Caesar salad as our appetizer. It was fresh and delicious. Entrees were fantastic! Two of us had the scallops with risotto and asparagus and one had the hanger steak. Everything was cooked to perfection. Nice sized portions. Our server was friendly and attentive, great personality, and you could tell everyone enjoyed working together. Highly recommend! And if ever back in the area, will definitely return!

Sam provided great service on a very busy Valentine’s. Food and drinks were very good, as expected. Restaurant was packed but mostly well organized.

Bar Central is the place to watch sports. With the big screen TV and surrounding TV set ups, how can you go wrong. We love going here and we go here in the morning with our pup for delicious coffee and pastries. We are locals, so one of the best experiences in the area!
