Story. - Prairie Village

My girlfriend and I went to story last night. Our server, Robert, was an awesome host and the entire staff was attentive to our needs. It made for a wonderful date night! She had the duck breast and I had the beef tenderloin. It was all excellent. I’m a professional chef myself and a pretty big stickler for places I try. Story exceeded each of those expectations that I had. Each dish was well composed and when put together, was truly a great culinary experience. The duck was tender but rich. The beef was again so tender but exuded the rich flavor that the chef was putting on the plate. We shared the Brussel sprouts and French fries as sides. They were both great. The sprouts are dressed in a mustard sauce but again, they tasted great. The fries were well seasoned with rosemary salt for a “oh my goodness, I need to keep eating this” feeling lol. For the end of our meal, we shared the lemon tart cake and again, it was excellent. My only gripe is that the honey ice cream was a little strong on the front end but still it was delicious. So kind of a nitpick there. My girlfriend had a cocktail called the “Hemingway” and she also really enjoyed it. The only downside that story has is it’s interior. It’s lovely but because they’re seating so many people in a large open room with lowered ceilings, it gets very loud and it’s hard to hear the conversation happening at your own table. That’s my only gripe. And it’s really not much of a gripe to be honest. I’d still go back to Story. Highly recommend, 9/10 stars.

Consistently excellent food every time we've been there. Our server, Maria, was great. The gazpacho was delicious. I'm not a fan of the row of two tops so tightly crammed together that you become part of the dinner conversations on either side of you. I get it. It's an efficient use of space. And if it keeps this restaurant open I'm for it. But it diminishes the dining experience.

Story continues to be one of the best fine dining experiences in Kansas City. It is not easy to uphold high standards after many years, and Story is always impressive with a well curated menu that is consistently creative and always very well executed. The wine list is good with a reasonable selection but usually on the expensive side. Dessert is always excellent and the appetizers are typically the best selections.
