    Outstanding service and friendly engagement from the initial greeting through the entire meal all the way to our departure. Paisley was an absolutely wonderful waitress. Great hospitality and insightful suggestions. Unlike other area competitors, the staff acknowledged our special event multiple times. That was not the case with previous anniversary dinners unfortunately spent at other area restaurants. Food was quite good as well.

    Pierpont's has been a favorite restaurant of mine for years. I don't go as often as I would like, but when I do, the quality of the food and service are always consistent and exceptional. In addtion, it is located in Kansas City's iconic Union Station. It is a wonderful restaurant for special occasions, but fun just for a happy hour, too. If you have not tried Pierpont's at Union Station, don't wait, it is a wonderful dining experience.

    My dining experience at the Majestic was excellent and very personable!!! Ted took care of me and my grandmother for her 65th birthday, she felt very special. We got a full history about the place on top of the food being excellent. The ribeye That we received was buttery and juicy and the mac & cheese was hot and well seasoned! On top of that the drinks kept consistently coming. The crabcake appetizer was so tasty as well as the Caesar salad. I couldn’t think the staff enough for my excellent experience my grandmother and I would give this a 10 out of 10/10!!!!
