Best Casual Restaurants in Legends / Village West

We celebrated Christmas south my best friends and their husbands. It was our first time there, it was recommended by my brother. The food was great and our waitress, Erin, was wonderful!!

My second lunch at Plate Italiano Moderno - Leawood. I was even more impressed this time. I ordered a pasta dish the first time and this visit the mushroom pizza was calling my name. It was delicious! To visit any restaurant during the holiday season I expect the noise level to be unbearable. I was pleasantly surprised that despite the number of large groups surrounding our two-top, we were able to converse fairly well.

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.

The bar manager was so gracious, showed me how to make one of her specialty drinks for an upcoming party!

Our family enjoyed a very good lunch to celebrate the upcoming Christmas holiday. Food was really good and our request for a booth was honored. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Great day at a great restaurant!🎄👍
