Cafe Trio is a busy location on weekends and evenings due to one special reason: The patio! Overlooking a Kansas City sunset is wonderful while eating some of the fine food here, and it's the main reason why this restaurant sits above others when it offers a special view like this!
3. Chubby's On Broadway - 3756 Broadway Street, Kansas City, Missouri
This restaurant is special because it's open 24 hours a day on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. IThey serve diner food just like you'd expect, have been in operation for 25 years, and they don't seem like they're stopping any time soon.
4. Fogo de Chão - 222 West 47th Street, Kansas City, Missouri
This Brazilian steakhouse serves you meats of all kinds, and doesn't stop until you say so. They're a little on the expensive side, but for a special occasion now and then this eatery definitely is worth it. So enjoy!
5. Fritz's - 250 N 18th Street, Kansas City, Kansas
Here, your food is delivered by a train suspended from the ceiling. You order by pressing a button and "calling in" your order before waiting for your little train to come chugging along.

La Bodega is king of Tapas, and has a great seating area out near the sidewalk. They serve some of the best authentic Spanish food with a great atmosphere.
7. Le Fou Frog - 400 E 5th Street, Kansas City, Missouri

10. The Melting Pot - 450 Ward Parkway, Kansas City, Missouri
Though it was a craze when it started, fondue is definitely not out or overrated. If you’re a lover of cheese (and I mean a lot of cheese) then this is exactly the spot you should be. It’s not everyday you’re encouraged to coat everything in cheese or chocolate, is it? Eat up!
