"Had dinner at Plate with my wife and parents and it was fantastic. We each ordered a different pasta dish—every one was fresh and delicious. The live jazz in the background set the perfect vibe without being too loud. Great food, great atmosphere, and genuinely friendly service. We’ll definitely be back."

"Plate in Brookside is an absolute gem! The restaurant is spacious and beautifully designed, creating a perfect atmosphere for a night out or a relaxing happy hour. And speaking of happy hour—it's fantastic! The hamburgers are cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and easily some of the best around with great drinks too. What truly sets Plate apart, though, is the incredible service. General Manager Vincent Corpuz is amazing—his warm and friendly personality makes every guest feel genuinely welcome. His attention to detail and hospitality elevate the entire dining experience and so does the rest of the staff. Plate doesn't disappoint. Highly recommend!"

"Great Happy Hour. Food was amazing. The meatballs were some of the best. Can't go wrong with truffle fries. We also had the sausage pizza and the pear bruschetta. Both very good as well. The manager was very welcoming and Dominic at the bar did a great job. It was our first visit, and will not be our last. Great Job everyone!"

"Plate Restaurant in Brookside is an absolute gem in Kansas City! From the moment you step in, the cozy ambiance sets the perfect tone--ideal for a relaxed date night or a fun evening with friends. The menu is a delightful blend of creative dishes and handcrafted cocktails. We started with delicious appetizers, including Burrata E Prosciutto, Truffle Gnocchi, steamed mussels, and truffle garlic bread --all superb! The Moderno salad was exceptionally refreshing. For our main courses, we couldn't get enough. The Shrimp Rigatoni (Rigatoni E Gameri) burst with flavor, while the Mushroom pizza and Spaghetti Pomodoro with Meatballs showcased some of the best pasta I've ever had. And yes, dessert was the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal. To top it off, the restaurant boasts a spacious patio--ideal for enjoying the upcoming warmer weather --and live music every Thursday. Plate Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in KC! Great service, fantastic food, and amazing ambiance."

"We went for our first Valentine’s Day together as husband and wife. A day that was already so special, was truly made so much more special by the amazing staff and everything from our drinks through dessert. Erica and Brian greeted us and immediately I felt a fun Valentine’s energy from them and the bustling Valentine’s crowd. For one of the busiest days of the year - at prime dinner rush - you would have never noticed that you weren’t the guests of honor. That was very special. The drinks and the food were out of this world. We did the pasta pre fixe menu and it was beyond chef’s kiss. Our server Noel, truly was the highlight of our night. He looked like movie star Patrick Fischler! Which took me an entire day to realize, lol, so I needed to say it here. His timing was perfect and we could tell he was proud of this wonderful place. Thank you to everyone from that evening!"
