Top Best American Restaurants in Lee's Summit

"Country Club PlazaIf you’ve driven by the Plaza on any somewhat nice day, chances are you’ve driven by a packed happy hour on Gram & Dun’s patio. Make reservations for a later dinner and enjoy warm fire pits, tasty cocktails (we recommend the Smoking Dun or “D” cup) and a few of the Asian Pig Wings.GramAndDun.com"

"Gram and Dun is located on the Plaza, one of KC’s coolest shopping and dining scenes. Craving mac and cheese but want to be an adult?. They’ve got you covered with an incredible burnt ends mac and cheese and to round out your meal, you can opt for the PB&J pie."

"While outside on its popular patio, Gram & Dun keeps diners toasty thanks to open-air fires and heaters. Meanwhile, the interior bar makes everyone feel at ease thanks to brick-lined backdrops and creative libations."

"The Succotash restaurant is a Kansas City staple opened in 2001 by Beth Barden. Its name was inspired by the song Groove is in the Heart, specifically the lyrics “my supper dish, my succotash wish.” It came to her while she pushed through exhaustion one late night working on the restaurant’s interior. Styled using an eclectic kitschy décor, Succotash is a true labor of love featuring large windows, slender columns, a patterned vaulted ceiling, wacky artwork, and a myriad of tables paired with various colorful chairs."

"The atmosphere of Succotash is about as hip and energetic as the name of the place itself. Succotash prides itself in supporting local vendors for ingredients used in their dishes. In addition to an in-depth brunch menu, locals in Kansas City can also utilize Succotash for their catering services."

"Breakfast-&-lunch joint drawing weekend crowds with hearty American eats & a hip, quirky vibe. Don’t miss the delicious brunch offerings. Crossroads/Crown Center/Westside"

"This is the true farm-to-table experience with locally produced goods from around Kansas and Missouri. Starting in 2009, before farm-to-table had become the next big thing in gastronomy, this place was on the cutting edge of culinary trends. In fact, they only use word-of-mouth to advertise, as they are that confident that their customers will make the best, and most honest, claims."

"The Farmhouse serves farm-to-table, tip-to-tail seasonal food by working with local farmers from so the menu is always changing to reflect the season’s bounty. Downtown/River Market/West Bottoms. 300 Delaware St, Kansas City, MO 64105"

"If you want a high-end dining experience in Kansas City, you can’t do much better than Corvino Supper Club & Tasting Room in the Crossroads, one of three KC restaurants with a AAA Four Diamond rating. The restaurant has two concepts: on one end, an 18-seat Tasting Room with a dramatic 10-course menu; on the other, a 70-seat Supper Club with à la carte shared plates and live music. Go all out for the tasting menu and look forward to strangely delicious items like seaweed doughnuts, tater tots with caviar and shallot pickles, and sheep cheese ice cream, plus some classic favorites like fried chicken and short ribs."

"This is one of only two Kansas City restaurants to receive a AAA Four Diamond rating. Inside The Supper Club, Chef Michael Corvino creates 13-course tasting menus that have featured spicy tomato gnocchi to short rib steak, and Whipped Chicken Liver to Wild Striped Bass. Supper Club guests also enjoy live music nightly."

"Two concepts under one roof, each capturing different experiences from Chef Michael Corvino. Crossroads/Crown Center/Westside. 1830 Walnut St, Kansas City, MO 64108"

"Are you looking for some delicious food and drinks right here in Kansas City?. Q39 is a great choice with two locations, one in Overland Park and one in Midtown. They have an incredible selection of starters, salads, specialty sandwiches, brisket burgers, wood-fired plates, barbecue lunch plates, and more."

"One of Kansas City’s premier barbecue restaurants may seem like an odd place to find vegetarian food, but the BBQ Veggie Burger is worth the visit. Try: Buffalo Cauliflower Florets, Potato Salad, and a salad with the BBQ Veggie Burger. 1000 W 39th St, Kansas City, MO 64111, 816-255-3753"

"Rustic-contemporary space for wines & bistro-style New American fare with an international touch. Voltaire’s American fusion cuisine and one of KC’s memorable dining experiences. Downtown/River Market/West Bottoms"

"It’s hard to believe that Voltaire has been around since 2013. I remember my first meal there to celebrate my birthday. It was a delicious experience full of great food, cocktails, and a delicious slice of cake."

"This corner restaurant in Westport is a big home-town favorite. I have personally waited an hour for brunch, which I rarely ever have the patience for. However, just thinking about Beer Kitchen‘s drunken donuts–small homemade donuts served with boozy chocolate sauce–and I need to get there."

"The Well is located just across the street from the Sarah Scoop office and I’ve been eyeing it for months. While the humble establishment offers an array of cocktails, beer, and lunch options, it wasn’t until the recent warm days that drew me to them. Their rooftop bar gives you the opportunity to enjoy lunch in the rays or wait until Happy Hour (3-7pm) during the weekdays."

"WaldoThe Well’s massive rooftop patio is prime for year-round enjoyment, offering a tent covering and fire pits during the winter. This Waldo hotspot is great for whatever your evening holds, whether you’re looking for an early happy hour or your final Friday night destination.WaldoWell.com"

The boutique store features an array of European antiques, jewelry, clothing, personal accessories, and gifts, and the award-winning restaurant serves seasonal menus focused on ingredients from local producers against a backdrop of the Liberty Memorial and downtown Kansas City. The menu focuses on classic New American, and Southern dishes fresh seafood, grilled meats, fresh salads and vegetables, and an elegant, wood-paneled bar serves a range of casual wines from around the world, craft and draft beers on tap and by the bottle, and classic cocktails made with top-shelf spirits."

"Sitting in an imposing, Romanesque building whose origins date back to 1885, Webster House is a KC institution: an artisan design boutique, respected antique shop and fabulous restaurant all in one. The restaurant’s chef, Matt Arnold, is committed to the farm-to-table philosophy and sources the freshest produce from local farmers in Kansas and Missouri. The result is a mouth-watering medley of local flavours, where new American cuisine meets sophisticated recipes, from the savoury grilled black Angus steak with port, walnuts and Roquefort butter to the balanced seasonal vegetable plate, served with a choice of meat."

The contemporary menu includes everything from scallops with beet purée and prosciutto-wrapped Icelandic cod to truffle fettuccine, a local mushroom tart and Akaushi strip steak with oxtail fritters.

"Here is where to get a drink if you understand the nuanced differences between an Italian-style pilsner and a Czech-style pilsner (or if you want to learn). When you find the beverage that hits your spot, you'll spend the rest of your time refilling that pint. We like You're Being Watchedm a triple IPA which was made in collaboration with BKS Artisan Ales."

"Newest location adding the best of the Martin City Pub and Tap Room experience, serving a variety of beer, tasty pub fare and pizza in Mission Farms. Leawood/Overland Park/Prairie Village. 4000 Indian Creek Parkway, Overland Park, KS 66206"

"Next up is Martin City's Martin City Pizza & Tap Room, situated at 410 E. 135th St. With 4.5 stars out of 122 reviews on Yelp, the brewery has proven to be a local favorite."

"In the famous Stockyard District that made Kansas City the go-to cattle destination in days of yore, sits an unpretentious brewing company making beer for hardworking locals. Stockyards Brewing Company started reinvigorating the historic area in 2016 and has been a Kansas City favorite ever since. The team has a deep appreciation for Kansas City’s integral part in the country’s westward expansion and create their beer in homage, where “hops meet heritage.” They’re currently open for to-go service Thursday-Saturday, so be sure to stock up ahead of the big game."

"A visit to Stockyards Brewing Company feels like a trip to the not-so-distant past. Located in Kansas City’s historic West Bottoms, the area was once the center of agriculture, home to stockyards starting in the late 19th century. Though the livestock is long gone, the area retains its industrial look and Stockyards Brewing Company has made its home inside what was once the Live Stock Exchange building."
