Room 39

This place was amazing! We did go at noon on Sunday without a reservation, but was still able to be seated for dining at the bar. Very cool and relaxed boho vibe. We ordered some coffee drinks and a freshly squeezed orange juice to start with. Entrees were the Salmon scramble, Goat cheese Gnocchi and the Chicken Liver on toasted crostini. If you like chicken livers at all, this was the absolute best I've ever had. The sauce was an excellent balance to the liver and it was cooked to perfection. Servers were on point, very friendly and attentive without being too much. This place is definitely a hidden gem and I can't recommend another local eatery better than this!

We met our friends here for dinner. They are 30+ year residents and live by the Plaza. They had never heard of Room 39, which been in my bookmarks for over a year. We were going to a show at MTH and decided to meet here for dinner beforehand. We snagged at 5 PM reservation a few days before and were greeted warmly on a hot summer afternoon by the host. Our server was Alex and she was magnificent beyond words. Her service and insight were magical. With the deft touch, she guided us through the menu and answered all of our questions. We will most certainly ask for Alex when we return. You may wish to do the same. You will not be disappointed. We had some delicious appetizers, including their tasty crabcakes, and the Room 39 salad was nice. Very fresh ingredients and not swimming and dressing. My wife had the steak au poivre, which I got a few bites of and it was delicious! I had the gnocchi with pesto cream sauce, which was divine. One of our friends enjoyed the pasta carbonara very much, and her husband loved the halibut. They shared crème brûlée for dessert and we had the chocolate mousse. All four of us loved our desserts. We recognize that Room 39 is on par with some of the finest restaurants in Kansas City. It’s a smaller venue, but their service is impeccable and so is the food. It’s a farm to table restaurant so the menu rotates and changes with the seasons and availability of ingredients. I love that! We will most certainly return.

I was a bit nervous about eating here after seeing some of the reviews. We were meeting old friends for the weekend and wanted a place for brunch for the 6 of us. We were seated right away and the service was great! The restaurant is pretty small but has a lot of personality and character. Plenty to choose from on the menu and no complaints from anyone. Great neighborhood with an amazing bookstore across the street and a lot of other interesting spots in the neighborhood. Looks like they also do lunch and dinner.

Loved this place! We decided to try Room 39 based on other reviews we read. It was well worth it. The atmosphere is romantic but relaxing. My wife loved the table settings. The service was very good. Very friendly and attentive. We both had the filet with scalloped potatoes and brussel sprouts. The steak was cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The scalloped potatoes were the best I've ever had. I can't believe it took us so long to try this place, but it won't be the last.

Great cozy lunch spot. We were welcomed by a friendly server. They have a really neat menu, a little something for everyone. The blended burger was amazing and the eggs and salmon did not disappoint.

I was sleep on Room39!!!! I was looking for a quick brunch after a long night and realizing I woke up too late from the daylight savings Spring Forward! I am notorious for googling new spots and throwing caution to the wind!!! Upon arrival I took note of the atmosphere which gave rustic meet distressed meet industrial warehouse someone lives upstairs type feel. We decided to belly up to the bar because what’s that expression about “hair of the dog?” The staff were attentive, communicative, friendly, and helpful when it came to their menu knowing we had never been before. Water was given immediately, drink orders taken, and the service was impeccable and timely, like within 8 mins of being seated timely! The food was hot, full of flavor, and beautiful presentation!!! I am always skeptical when I see such a great presentation because I brace myself in hopes that the flavors match and Room39 did not disappoint!!! I loved the artwork and the nice touch of Afred “Slick” Surrats portrait that hangs on the wall behind the bar. Of course I must come back for your dinner menu!!! Thank you for such a fabulous experience, you have no idea how much it meant to me!

We had a great anniversary dinner tonight! Our server was so kind, the atmosphere was nice, and our meals were delicious. I would absolutely come back for the Goat Cheese Gnocchi. Great wine selection as well!

Love everything about this place! It’s not very big so we usually book a reservation. We’ve tried several items from their menu on different visits and all of it has been delicious.
