Green Dirt on Oak

We got the monger’s choice cheese board, the chicories salad, and the lamb. The cheese board was super creamy and delicious, the salad was bitter, bright and crunchy. The lamb was crazy tender and flavorful. Just all around a really great meal. I ordered the Cheese Kitchen Martini which featured whey; essentially making it a dirty gin martini.

Excellent experience. The food was good, but the drinks and ambiance are what make this place great. The Fig Jam and Cheese Kitchen are excellent takes on an old fashioned and dirty martini, respectively. The cheeses are great and include both hard and soft cheeses. I really enjoyed the Prairie Tomme and Dirt Lover. The lamburger is good but not great. I appreciated that they have a Beaujolais on the menu, but the wine menu is otherwise quite limited. The service was excellent and the place is really cool on the inside. There’s also a rooftop lounge area that you can enjoy after dinner. There’s no bar up there but you can grab a drink at the bar downstairs and take it up with you.

Wow. Everything about this place is wonderful. The superb quality of ingredients is evident. The curated menu and use of local and in season ingredients to make spectacular combinations that balance each other is outstanding. The ambiance and service were the cherry on top. We had the cheese kitchen martini to start. Met all my briny tini dreams. Cheese and meat board next. Wonderful cheeses and accoutrements. The lamb tartar is unlike any tartar I’ve had. So fresh and seasoned well, served with a delicious herby sourdough crisp. Pork chop and roasted lamb also incredible. Don’t get me started on the cheese cake and affogato with sheep’s milk ice cream. Topped it all off with an amaro from the amaro cart on the roof top. Overall a wonderful and delicious experience.

We spent the day in the city exploring- ( perfect as it was chilly)found this little hidden gem! Cozy, warm, earthy vibes. The atmosphere & food were amazing! We tried the famous cheese board! And tried the hot tea! We could have stayed all day with the vibes. Our server was amazing. We will be back soon! ❤️

Best way to sum this place up is just flavor. Very unwise, robust and delicious flavor with everything we had. The ambiance is also stunning. We struggled to choose our favorite dish between the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Had the lamb burger for the entree and there wasn’t a negative comment at the table. Highly recommend for a relaxing evening with friends.

Servers greeted us in a very cheerful demeanor and were very knowledgeable and helpful with the menu. It was our first time so everything was explained to us. Food was great. Everything we had was very flavorful and and a lot of attention was paid to everything served.

Alllll the cheese. We got a mongers choice of 3 cheeses and it was the perfect appetizer. The plates are meant to split. The beets were amazing, as was the cheese croquets. The gin and tonic was just ok - I probably wouldn’t get it again. I did not love the delacotta squash. I would definitely come back here, though! Did was awesome

Our first experience dining at Green Dirt on Oak and I am definitely a fan! I really admire their concept of farm to table sustainability and locally sourced ingredients. To start, I really loved the atmosphere and this is a great date night vibe as well as somewhere to enjoy as a group. Service was very friendly and helpful as our server was kind enough to explain their concept and menu with this being our first time. We knew we absolutely had to try the cheese croquettes. I would say they are quite good but I was not blown away. The root vegetables, however, I would say are a MUST. Very delicious. For my entree, I had the Lamb Ragu and it gave me GOOSEBUMPS it was so good. Truly one of the best dishes I’ve had anywhere. Highly recommend. We would definitely dine here again! Compliments to the staff and chef.

I've wanted to visit since they opened and finally made it. When I saw they're open for lunch I figured it'd be an easy meal to get there. I was right. Lunch is lowkey on a Friday. My wife and I were the only ones in there for a while. The space is really nice in a good location that's easily accessible. I had the Italian Lamb which was a fun edition of an Italian Beef sandwich. The bread was super fresh and was ideal for soaking up the jus without getting soggy. It turned out to be a great lunch. I'm glad I stopped by.

TLDR: 3.5 stars. Great brunch but mediocre dinner I hate giving this review, bc the brunch was phenomenal and their biscuits are to die for!!! But, sadly, the dinner was really mediocre. Everything came out tepid... we had to send back a couple of things! The cheese croquettes were actually cold and when they brought out the remake, some were just warm and others were tepid again! We then got the steak, and their braised lamb and they were also lukewarm... which, even if it were resting for a couple minutes, it shouldn't be lukewarm when it comes out. It was just so weird! The lamb was dry and also lukewarm. This is probably the first time that we didn't enjoy eating lamb... we sent the steak back but kept the lamb bc we figured the lamb just wasn't going to be good either way. Honestly, the only thing we enjoyed were the cheeses.

Kansas City has a wonderful skyline! Green dirt is a cheese maker north of KC in Weston that we really like so we decided to try out the restaurant in crossroads. First off, if you come here you gotta try the cheese. So get a cheese board of some kind. We got meat and cheese for two that they call the show me. It didn't disappoint. All of the cheese was good but I really like the dirt lover. It has a very earthy flavor with a creamy texture. A lot of, if not all of their cheeses are sheep's milk. So they are rich and creamy and delicious. There were a couple of pate's and they were tasty as well. We have some French friends and they would have been proud of us eating pate. Since they bring it to us when they visit. Everything was good, but the star of the place are the charcuterie and cheese boards. Oh, and you gotta try the fig old fashioned with your cheese board. There seems to be an old fashioned trend in restaurants these days and I love it. It's about time! We got the cheese croquettes and they were good. What's not to like about fried cheese, it's fantastic. For our dinner we shared the strip steak and it was very good as well. Most of the food here is shareable and I kinda think they encourage it, which we liked quite a bit. I wish more restaurants did this for dinner. After dinner I got a coffee and we took it upstairs to the roof to take in the KC view. The place is beautiful inside. The first floor is a coffee shop and a cheese counter. The main restaurant is upstairs on the second floor, so if you have a reservation just head straight upstairs and there is a host stand at the top of the stairs. Everything looks new. I liked the comfy velvet chairs and the place has nice big windows so you can enjoy the downtown skyline. When you come, I would suggest either coming early or having an after dinner drink on the rooftop. Kansas City really is a beautiful city and the weather in the early fall here is perfect for being outside. Next time we come, we are definitely going to spend more time on the rooftop. Lastly, we didn't know this but the parking lot directly across 16th street is open to patrons of the restaurant. We parked on the street a couple blocks away but next time we will park in the lot. Overall we really liked the place. It may be a go to place for us going forward for a light dinner and drinks on the rooftop. Definitely give it a try.

After being referred by a friend we stopped I. Tonigh for dinner... we did not realize that this resturante represented a cheese producer from Westin. Our meal stared with the chiefs choice cheese tray. All cheeses are from Green Dirt and quite tastes. I had the half chicken and my girlfriend had the squash entre. Both were fantastic. Green Dirt is located at 17th and Oak and occupies a wonderful old building with dinning tacking place on the second floor. There is a wonderful roof top with wonderful views! Green Dirt needs to be on your must try short list!

We arrived wanting to eat but brunch was over and dinner wasn't until 4. So we grabbed drinks. The motif of Green Dirt is very earth friendly. I like the space and vibe. I created my own drink, Roseberry Matcha, 12oz was the only option because they were out of 16oz cups. It was decent. My mom had Mango Arnold Palmer, which was extremely tart and sour. I believe it's Katelyn who was happy to help, said that normal taste but tappered it liquid sugar. That made it better. Literally was like a sour patch candy.

Four of us had dinner at Green Dirt on July 4. We were there early and only one other table was present. The physical space is very nice. The loft style building is nicely renovated. The first floor is a coffee shop with lots of seating perhaps for lunch or brunch. The second floor is a nice sized dining room with a large bar area. The third level is an outdoor rooftop terrace where they often have a bar and live music. It's very nice. They own a lamb farm and much of the food comes directly from the farm or other farms in the area. I found the dinner menu somewhat limited. We tried half of the items and they were all very fresh and delicious. No complaints about the food whatsoever. It's seasonal, fresh and well prepared. See the menu photo. My concerns were not overwhelming but I do list them here. First, the limited dinner menu is quite pricey. For instance I had one glass of wine (5 ounces / $14) with the fried broccoli- cauliflower- broccolini, and Mac n Cheese. With tip my bill was $70. My friend ordered Summer Squash-pork-a glass of wine and he paid over $100 with tip. Prices are on the high end. Second, while our server was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, our service was slow. We came in at 5:15pm and did not get our bills until 7:15. A very nice bartender helped him out with our table or our wait would have been longer. There were only three tables in the house at this point. I wonder how slow it gets when the house is full? Still, we had a great evening and everybody should try this place to experience it.

Shoot I really wanted to love Green Dirt as I had heard such good things! Sadly was disappointed - but perhaps we went on an off night. Loved the ambience so definitely would try again! I'd also like to checkout the little rooftop bar next time! Service was mediocre -- honestly just a bit slow. None of the food was bad by any means, just underwhelming. We had the cheese croquettes, the spring greens, and the GDF lamburger. Again, all fine just didn't wow me!

Took about 40 minutes to get the entrees. Mostly inedible as it was all fat. Even the couple of pieces that had a little actual meat just tasted like fat/grease/butter. This was $40 and I left hungry. The French fries and the potatoes to share were good, but steep prices for what it is. My friend got the KCStrip and it was also small and very fatty. Cocktails were aesthetic and tasty but very small for a $13+ drink. Extremely over priced in my opinion for what you get and the slow service, probably won't go back.

In addition to the great cheese shop and the delicious dinner menu, Green Dirt on Oak also has an awesome brunch! Brunch is located on the first floor in the daytime cafe area. They take brunch reservations since it's not a huge area, but I didn't have to wait on a weekend for a table! The brunch menu definitely highlights the Green Dirt sheep's cheese selection with delicious cheesy breakfast sandwiches and lots of cheese board options. I got the breakfast sandwich special of the weekend, and it was so delicious. Sheep's cheese, sheep's buttermilk English muffin, and sheep sausage -- perfect feature of all that Green Dirt has to offer! I'm going to be thinking about those breakfast potatoes for a while. They are crispy on the outside and magically fluffy on the inside, and I could happily eat the Prairie Tomme aioli with a spoon. The portions are a little small for the price because of the higher cost of the sheep products, but I promise you will not be disappointed with the flavor.

The location and atmosphere is great. The menu & food leaves much to be desired. I'm not sure if the breakfast menu is limited due to trying to maintain their local farm identity but this is not a great spot for brunch. Mimosas and Bloody Mary is way overpriced. At this point I would not recommend this as a legitimate brunch place.

Our first experience dining at Green Dirt on Oak and I am definitely a fan! I really admire their concept of farm to table sustainability and locally sourced ingredients. To start, I really loved the atmosphere and this is a great date night vibe as well as somewhere to enjoy as a group. Service was very friendly and helpful as our server was kind enough to explain their concept and menu with this being our first time. We knew we absolutely had to try the cheese croquettes.

For my entree, I had the Lamb Ragu and it gave me GOOSEBUMPS it was so good. Truly one of the best dishes I've had anywhere. Highly recommend. We would definitely dine here again! Compliments to the staff and chef.

Enjoyed a drink and side of fries for $38 at Green Dirt on Oak. My friend and I went in earlier this month and there's a little bit of everything here. On the first floor there's a daytime shop with coffee, cheeses, and other items available to purchase. The main restaurant and dining area is on the second floor, and beyond that is a nice rooftop patio. Business appeared slow for a Sunday, there was only one other table occupied. They have really cute cocktail straws made out of hay, which I used for the Feliz cocktail I ordered. The bartender was friendly and helpful, hunting down a box of gluten free crackers for the cheeseboard my friend ordered. The rooftop patio has comfortable seating but it started sprinkling on us so we came inside - will have to revisit soon.

Absolutely one of the coolest spaces I've been in! I had no idea that Green Dirt was huge. The first floor has shopping, coffee, and casual seating. The second floor has an awesome bar, unique seating options, and great vibes. Definitely a fancier place but drink prices weren't outrageous. The 3 cheese cheeseboard was $25 during "cheese hour" and was plenty of food to split between 2 of us for appetizers. Service was great, ambiance was great, and the entire experience was 10/10!

Yas! We were dying to try this location because we Love Thier farm/shop in Weston. The sheep's cheeses are to die for! And the boards highlight a little bit of all their best things!! Grab your loved ones, some cocktails and eat all the cheese! Plus 3 floors of vibes to explore, much bigger than I expected. Recommend! See ya there!

This place should be packed every night, food and drinks were great, service was A plus and it's absolutely beautiful inside. Designated driver alcohol free Garden Party was delicious and refreshing, tasted like a great gin cocktail. I had a sip of the Fig Jam Old Fashioned and it is a fun take on the original. Cheese croquettes with sherried onions and truffle honey were probably the best bite of the night but they had some stiff competition. Shishito pepper appetizer was the perfect combination of salty, crunchy, creamy, savory, herby deliciousness. The seasonal tomato watermelon salad with savory tomato sorbet was a spectacular celebration of everything good about summer. The macaroni and cheese would make any Southern grandmother so proud, radiatori pasta that soaked up every ounce of delicious, delicious cheese sauce whose topping was perfectly salamandered. Wandered up to the rooftop and it is lovely up there also, looked like a fun place to hang out after or before dinner.

The drinks were absolutely delicious! Had we not already been out for wine before arriving, I definitely would've had another! The service and ambience were also on par. A unique looking upstairs spot that felt autumnal and cozy. If I visited again though, I'd probably stop by just for drinks. The salads were fine. Our entrees weren't great.

I was worried about needing a reservation but we were able to get a table without one. Apart from being a restaurant there is also a store and a small coffeehouse seating area. I tried a lamb milk lattes with no syrup and I really enjoyed the taste and the amount of coffee served. The latte art was a little off but our server was really nice and boxed up the food I couldn't finish for me. For the quality of food I was happy about the price point for everything on the day time menu. The Mac and cheese is a must try as it was creamy and flavorful. I added the pork belly which was fatty and crispy and went well with the mushrooms.

Had a wonderful dinner here with my friends! The decoration was exquisite and I really enjoyed it. Our server, Dalton, was extremely helpful and kind. I loved the exotic cheeses and the fruit pairings. This is a great spot for a date or a special occasion!

I had such a great experience here! Service was excellent -- so attentive and thoughtful. Dining area is cozy and inviting. Everything was delicious, from the food to the drinks, especially the cheese kitchen martini.

Wonderful. Definitely get a small cheese board, Green Dirt is known for its house made cheeses! We got several apps to share, green tomato tempura, tomato and watermelon salad, shinshito peppers, lamb tartare, all were amazing. I got the lamb burger. If you don't like gamey meat, this isn't the burger for you. But if you do, it's juicy, tender and really flavorful. Also, please check out the bathroom. They really had no business creating a space that was so beautiful, ha!

Gorgeous Spaces, Delightful staff, and world class cuisine. We arrived for dinner for Sunday night a little confused. When you walk in from street level, there is a huge open kitchen with empty tables and chairs. One of thier culinary team popped out to direct us to the stairs on the south wall of the building. The dining room is upstairs on the second floor. We popped upstairs to host stand, checked in, snd headed to out table. The menu is succinct and is truly Farm to Table. The Lamb in her Tartare grew up in Weston and was Delicious! The cheese in the cheesecake and the yogurt in the Pavlova started out as grass in the fields before being eaten, milked, and cultured. There wasn't an average bite. There is a variety of NA options and unlimited ice tea. The only average part of the evening was the coffee which was brewed downstairs wasn't very hot... but it was also 8pm on a Sunday and I didn't want to wait for them to brew a fresh pot just for me. June took care of us and was present without being annoying, which was perfect as we were were there for almost 3 hours. We let them know we were in no hurry when they mentioned the steak does take 35 - 40 minutes to grill ( which if you have been to a nice restaurant, isn't unusual as it's cooked to order ). The amusing part of the evening arrived when we were told to make sure to check out the Ewe's ( ladies ) restroom.

This was the perfect place for a casual GNO. We just got a large charcuterie board and glasses of wine so didn't experience all this place has to offer of dinner, desserts, cafe, etc but for what we got, our server gave us great guidance and suggestions. You will have to find street parking but such a cute spot!

So glad we finally tried this place! We started out with a cheeseboard, beets, and cauliflower. The cheeseboard was delicious and so good to start with. The beet plate was soooooo good, I wish I could eat that plate every day! The roasted cauliflower dish was interesting, we didn't expect it to be cold. Our server was able to reccomend to us splitting our entrees which was so nice after a hefty appetizer round. The lamb ragu was amazing and the pork chops + stonefruit chutney was delicious. I enjoyed their free-spirited options as well as someone who rarely drinks. The dining space was so homey and the big bright windows were so welcoming. The desserts were not exactly what we were expecting so next time we will probably skip those. But overall, I definitely want to come back!

We were walking by and decided to see what their cheese hour was all about! All the cheese's chosen were pretty mild without a strong sheep flavor (some of the cheeses in Weston were very strong for me). Great atmosphere for a date, GNO, or a casual visit. Service was great and we were recommended to check out the restroom which was beautiful!

What a fun place to try for brunch! We learned it was their 1st week trying this out so yumm for us! First the pancakes!!!absolutely fabulous they were "small" and meant to be an appetizer but 2 fluffy big fruit & cheese covered creations with warm syrup arrived... we loved them. The were so filling we chose to share the lamb hash as well which had asparagus, zucchini, potatoes, lamb and eggs- so filling and flavorful. We really really enjoyed our 1st visit and plan to be back.

This is a great spot to get some local eats and when I say local they are doing it all. Straight from their own farm direct to the restaurant and that is why their menu changes so often. All the food was great that we had there and I'll for sure be coming back to check out the charcuterie board. They have a rooftop patio where you can bring drinks from the upstairs bar to relax while looking at the views of downtown crossroads. The staff were extremely nice and helpful for the menu so if you don't know, just ask!

Finally got to @greendirtonoak The space is huge and beautiful. The first floor is coffee and boards during the day. Then the second floor is dinner and the bar. All gorgeous and still smell like fresh cut wood and newness. The 3 star rating is all for the price of items. A $20 burger with meat that came from the farm you own and it comes without fries/side item. That is steep. I also think they over charge for the cheese. It is great but a cheese board for $36 for 5 small portions of cheese. Too rich for my blood. Staff is kind and knowledgeable of the menu. My favorite thing we tried was the Cheese Kitchen Martini. Gin, aquavit, feta brine, and pepper - it is a savory delicious cocktail. Burger was cooked well and the lamb was delicious. The cheese croquettes were great. The cheese is funky against the fried coating and sweet/tart onions. A great bite with the martini. The fried green tomatoes were wedges rather than the traditional slice which was nice and tomatoes were warm throughout. Needed more sauce and pickled veggies to match the thickness of the tomatoes and tempura. Also the pickled veggies aren't giardiniera. Giardiniera is pickled veggies with a level of heat and packed in oil (Chicago girl pet peeve) please stop calling all pickles giardiniera because you used cauliflower and celery. Overall nice experience, the prices are more than I think KC is going to be expecting to pay for some of the items.

This review is for the shop- I haven't been to the restaurant yet! Terrific experience. Staff is friendly and knowledgable- I got to sample cheeses before purchase! I hope they flesh out their charcuterie accoutrement a bit, they're on to something great.

So excited to dine at the new Green Dirt on Oak. Big fans of their restaurant and chef series in Weston. Amazing decor, food and service at this Crossroad restaurant. Dalton our server is awesome. Ask for him. The design and ambiance are outstanding. This was a car repair shop. The dining room on the second floor is where the cars were repaired, after being brought up on an elevator! We are writing this review as we eat. For starters, the Cheese Croquets, Citrus-Poached Beets, Roots n' Tubers and Brussel Sprouts are to die for. Delicious and hearty Hanger Steak and Heritage Pork Chop for entrees. Perfectly prepared. We tried several craft cocktails. Our favorites were the Feliz and Fig Jam Old Fashioned. And to finish it off, the Green Dirt Cheesecake! For a restaurant just opened, no service issues. And the restrooms are out of this world. Wow!

This restaurant has been a long time coming. And I was not disappointed. The space is beautiful- dark and sexy - the upstairs dining area kinda makes you feel like you're in a mansion or something. On my visit, we tried many things on the menu to share since it was a first time for all of us. Known for their cheese, the manager's choice cheese tray was incredible. Sourdough bread and gf crackers (upon request) plus jam and mustard accompanied our cheese. So very delightful to my palate. We also had the lamb burger - juicy and very good, Brussel sprouts- so very good but were kinda greasy. The French fries and tempura zucchini (kinda soggy for me) were just ok. The beet salad with 2 kinds of beets was light and delicious. The Mac n cheese was cheesy and flavorful and the oyster mushrooms added some complexity of texture and flavor to make it even more delicious. We also shared the green salad - equally delicious. Everything was solid good - no exaggeration. We were too full for dessert. Great wine list - rose, chilled red, Lambrusco, chenin blanc and more. Mocktails, cocktails and beer too. The women's restroom is more like a women's dressing room and great for a selfie. It also smells so good in there. During the day they serve coffee and pastries on the first floor. Didn't get to the roof but will on my next visit. Tip: if you want to go for dinner on the weekend, make your rez at least 2 weeks out. I waited a week and only 9 pm was available. And by that time, lots of items on the menu and wine list were out. Street parking available. Depending on time of day may have to circle a few times or walk a couple blocks.

I woke up and said "I'm craving tomatoes" and went online to look up who had any..only saw the menu that said heirloom tomato salad and said, "that's where we're going" bit was I glad I did! The space is beautiful and lots of room! They have an upstairs that we didn't go to but will try to see it next time! The cheese options are delicious and we LOVED the soft cheese spread. The tamale was a special and the mole and flavor was outstanding! The chef even came over and spoke to us and gave us some more insight on how he made and sourced items. We were so impressed with everything! They have delicious coffee and beverage choices and the other staff was so friendly and welcoming. The host was so kind to take our dishes and clean up our area so we could sit and enjoy our coffees in a clean environment. Will be back to try more!

Green Dirt on Oak has been a long awaited restaurant opening in the Crossroads area. They have a multi-purpose layout including coffee shop, dining area on second floor and then rooftop patio. We started with drinks as usual, which they had nice selection of cocktails and mocktails as well as wine. For food we couldn't pass up the cheese and charcuterie board, we chose to do the show me size which can serve 2-3 people. It has great selection of cheeses, meats, nuts and vegetables and even chicken liver mousse which was fabulous. We also split the spring green salad, French fries and the rabbit roulade. Of those items the French fries were bomb so highly recommend those. Overall though the food was bland and no real pop of flavor. This is a tricky review to write. Wish I could've loved it more but just couldn't. The service was awesome though, our waitress was fantastic. Been waiting awhile for Green Dirt to open up and the space was visually stunning. Loved the restoration of the original hardwood flooring and the bathrooms were so cool too! But the food...was just average. The cheese board they nailed though, can tell this is their staple item but the main dining menu definitely has room for improvement. Final review: 3.5/5 stars

Kansas City's hottest new restaurant is Green Dirt on Oak. I LOVE day trips to Green Dirt Farm in Weston and have been highly anticipating this KC location. And it did NOT disappoint. Husband started with the Feliz cocktails - because he's on a mezcal kick. And later he ordered the orange wine off of their carefully curated and natural wine list. I did a glass of the Gamay which wasn't my favorite but I LOVED my second glass, the Bordeaux Blend. The decision on what to order was as challenging as ever. We landed on the cheese croquettes - a must. The roots n tubers - which were good, very earthy, a lot of textures. The lamburger was just incredible. And the green dirt cheesecake - another must. I can't wait to come back for their rumored "cheese hour," maybe even on the rooftop patio, to try one of their expertly crafted charcuterie boards. What are you waiting for? Seriously. Book that res.

This exciting, romantic, and open-concept dining experience in Kansas City is one that you do not want to miss out on. When you walk in, you pass the open kitchen where the food is being prepared and then make your way upstairs into the dim-lit dining space. We start our date with a bottle of wine and the Show Me charcuterie board. This board was packed with fresh and delicious cheeses, nuts, meats, dried fruits, bread, and more. I had tried some cheeses and meat that I had never experienced before which was super fun! We ordered the Smoked Lamb Mole (molé negro, pickled serrano peppers, feta cheese, cilantro, and yoli tortillas ) for dinner. The service was spectacular and they always made sure to check in on us. If you have not had the chance to check out Green Dirt on Oak in Kansas City yet, you MUST add this to your list asap. Make sure to reserve your table first!

Met a friend for a late lunch here on Saturday. We loved the 3 cheese plate and hearing about each of the cheeses and which ones are made on site. Loved this cocktail that had honey and bubbles in it for a light and spicy drink. Tried one of the specials of day which was the braised lamb tamale. It was rich but light and so delicious. We dined downstairs on the main level. Service stopped at 2 but there's a counter that does coffee, drinks, savory and sweet treats that is open all the time. Lounge areas are available to use as well as the rooftop patio which is lovely, but doesn't have service or a restroom, but still awesome to finish drinks or eat takeout from downstairs. Finally, they have a beautiful dining hall upstairs that opens at 5 for dinner. We will be back. Fun and delicious.

The Good: -the place itself is very cool! loved the decor on the walls and the ambiance -maple old fashioned was AMAZING -brussels sprouts and house fries were both really good The Not so Good: -the lamb burger was just okay, my bun was kind of burnt so that mixed with a smoky meat flavor was kind of off. -the mac and cheese has no flavor. we had to ask for pepper to make it eatable The verdict: Would definitely come back for happy hour but not worth the money for dinner.

I like the vibe of the restaurant and the rooftop space. The rooftop has plenty of seating and you are welcome to bring your drinks up there, but there is no wait service. That actually made it a nice, quiet place to hang out and visit. We started our night on the rooftop with a couple of cocktails and I'd say they were very well made. We were celebrating our anniversary and they added some nice extra touches for us. They seated us at their "most intimate" table that they called the "hot tub". It was a fun spot and they treated us to glasses of champagne upon seating us. We started with a 3 cheese board and thoroughly enjoyed the selection they chose for us. They offer most of their dishes in portions meant to share, so they bring them out individually. We ordered carrots, pork and braised lamb. It was all good, but I thought the pork and carrots were more flavorful than the lamb. We decided to end the night with the cheesecake and it was fantastic. Light and airy and not a heavy dessert.

these cocktails are some of the best i've had in kansas city--the sesame one was insanely crushable and flavorful. the bartender was super knowledge and helpful with recommendations, and the rooftop patio is spacious with plenty of large umbrellas.

Tried this place out for the first time a few weeks ago. It's a cute little cafe/bar on a corner with excellent service! Stopped in for a late lunch and a glass of wine. The kitchen closes between 2 & 5, so make sure to check their hours before you go. The cheese & charcuterie & coffee shop is open all day. It's all locally-grown ingredients and the aioli that comes with the fries is to die for! I was sad to be too late to try the cinnamon roll....it looks amazing! Can't wait to go back!

Stopped in at lunchtime before a show at the Music Hall and was not disappointed! We ordered a glass of wine and the Monger's Choice cheese plate to start and then the seasonal special, which was a delicious peach and pork belly crostata. Lunch dining is casual, on the lower level and there is an inviting coffee shop there as well. They make several cheeses in house and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The prices are a bit high but that crostata was worth it! I really want to go back and have a cocktail on the upper level. Great addition to the Crossroads area!

We were walking by Green Dirt and as we were perusing the menu, a couple walked by and said, "It's so good. We ate here tonight. Eat here." So we did! I honestly thought cheese was cheese, but I was dead wrong. Thankfully we made the decision to order a cheese plate and OMG wow. This cheese is life changing. We also ordered a Veggie Tempura and it was incredible. The service and the restaurant itself were fantastic. My only ???? is that I ordered a draft beer and it came in a highball glass. It was the price of a 16+ ounce beer at any other restaurant but this pour was small. Overall, it was a lovely and unexpected experience and we will be back.

Grabbed a drink and some food here with a friend. First, the space is AMAZING. It is stunning - from the dining room to the bathrooms, I was in awe. Service was great. My martini was incredible, and I'd go back for another one in a heartbeat. Food was good. The lamb burger and the croquettes were delish! I didn't love the fried green tomatoes, I felt like there was too much batter for the amount of green tomato. Fair warning, the place is pricey, but could be good for a special occasion!

The place is absolutely amazing! The atmosphere is incredible. First floor is retail and has some table what I'm assuming is for daytime? The upstairs for dinner was my experience. It was beautiful! Even the restrooms are beautiful! You can watch the kitchen too which was pretty neat. The food, oh my goodness the food was amazing!! My husband and I shared a 3 pick cheese plate and braised lamb. For dessert we had the blueberry tart. Everything was incredible. My only complaint is the prices are extremely high for local farm to table. I'd still come back but ouch. $28 for the cheese plate and $42 for the lamb which came out on a teeny tiny plate. It seriously was so very good though.

A charming space with booth and windowside table seating, a coffee bar and a retail cheese counter. I ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich with fries and my wife had the mac and cheese. After having an over the top Monte Cristo the week prior with a thick batter coating, I felt a bit underwhelmed when my more modest offering from Green Dirt arrived at our table. There was no batter coating nor deep fried; the bread was given a milk and egg bath and pan grilled similar to french toast. Although lacking in batter, the tender locally sourced ham and the fresh in-house made sheep milk cheese certainly made up for any outer appearance issues. The berry mostarda sauce was exceptional for dipping. The parmesan fries with aoili were a great side dish, although salad was a second option. My wife's mac and cheese that I sampled was exquisite with it's sheep's milk cheese sauce and pungent oyster mushrooms. We are eager to return just to sample the cheese board sampler. Efficient service from our waiter.

This location has a very cool vibe inside, but parking was a challenge especially since there was an event at T-Mobile. Service was just ok, but giving a pass on this because they were training someone new. We had the cheeseboard and it was amazing. The dinner menu is pretty limited overall and it was a la cart. My husband and I decided to share the pork chop along with a side of the potatoes. The potatoes were really good, but we did not care for the pork chop. It was pretty fatty and greasy and sadly did not feel it was worth the $40 price tag. This is farm to table and they support local farmers and I love that! However, I think with such a limited menu, they aren't going to get the foot traffic they deserve.

We were there Sunday of Labor Day weekend. We were visiting from out of town and chose it because it was recognized as one of the best new restaurants. The ambiance was great buuutttt the service was awful. We were ignored for 20 minutes after being seated and had to grab someone to even help us. The guy with the mustache helped start our drink order (which took 20 minutes). The server who was assigned to our section never even looked at us for 30 minutes. He actually was helping newly sat tables and ones that were even way out of the way. I don't know if it's because we didn't look like cast members of Portlandia or Mumford and Sons like everyone else did but we had to beg just to order food. The kicker was that they ran out of steak and chicken lol. The menu is small so that took out a significant portion of it. The food we did get was nothing to write home about. luckily we don't live in the area so we don't risk having to go there again. Avoid this place.

Friendly service. Funky vibe. Amazing food. Had breakfast here a second day after a great experience. Will definitely return again in the future.

So mid. Food, service, atmosphere. Went on a Friday @ 8pm, food didn't come til 9:15. Server "memorized" our orders and completely forgot a main dish. We said nothing to avoid waiting more. The food was so disappointing

Made a rez finally for our first visit to to Green Dirt on Oak and wow! First, no wonder the space took time to build: it's spectacular! Every angle and surface is planned thoughtfully. The bathrooms are nicer than my living room (by a lot). I loved the peek down into the kitchen on our way up the stairs for dinner. And I'm a sucker for great soft chairs and a few candles for ambiance. We absolutely must go back to try more of the menu, but what we picked were all winners: Cheese Croquettes with a hint of funk, sherry onions and truffle honey (!) Roots and Tubers: sweet potato, carrot and turnip with an insane amount of spice and plenty of salt. Mayyyybe my fave: Tempura Zucchini chunks with sumac dusted creamy cheese and torn mint. So many flavors and textures! Not pictured: the lamb chops, which were superb (I mean, obviously). Cooked perfectly, with a delicious spiced and salted crust, and this dreamy tahini and black garlic sauce that mixed with the warm lamb juices and was just excellent. Nice glass of a light chilled red (love the glassware!) but Brian's fave drink was the fig old fashioned. I loved my lemon-vodka-bitters drink (forgot the name): no sweetness, all refreshing and palette preparing. Can't wait for lunch service to begin soon and will absolutely be back for dinner cause that lamb burger walked by us and I almost had to order it too... Plus I hear the cheesecake is fantastic!
