Update on Chuck Eats KC
When 2020 started, I had ambitious plans for this blog. Hoped to review dozens of Kansas City area restaurants in 2020.
Shake Shack: Fast Casual Gourmet Burgers and Fries and Shakes
Shake Shack is kind of like the Trader Joe’s of the current generation of fast casual burger chains. You’ve heard lots of praise from friends who are part of their fan base. The restaurant is a chain, but it doesn’t oversaturate your city with locations. You must go out of your way to patronize their restaurants.
Rice House: Chinese Takeout in South Kansas City
Excellent Chinese take-out in south Kansas City with many vegetarian options.

Aladdin Cafe: Delicious Middle Eastern / Mediterranean in Midtown
My current favorite Middle Eastern restaurant is the Aladdin Cafe on 39th St. in Midtown Kansas City, Missouri, Fresh, tasty and healthy. Many vegan options.
Margarita’s: Family Friendly Mexican on the Boulevard
One of my favorite Mexican restaurants on the Boulevard is Margarita’s, a local institution that has been in business for 30 years. Family friendly, affordable, great service, delicious entrees, and some of the best chips and salsa in Kansas City.
Shawarmar: Fast Middle Eastern in Midtown
So I was very excited a few years back when Shawarmar opened in a former fast food chicken spot on Linwood, just a block East of Main Street. Midtown finally got a fast Middle Eastern concept that offers drive-thru, takeout, tasty food, and friendly service.
Meriwether Café: An Authentic Third Place in Leavenworth, Kansas
The Meriwether Café in downtown Leavenworth, Kansas can be described as a third space that encapsulates the social good of third spaces. While it’s a restaurant, coffee shop and gift shop, it’s also a space where you can take the kids, meet up with a date, take some time to read the newspaper, or have a public coffee klatch with friends.
BIBIBOP Asian Grill: New Asian Fusion in Waldo
Bibibop is a new fast casual Asian fusion restaurant in Waldo. Korean style customized bowls with vegan and gluten free options.
