Bristol Seafood Steak Social

I have no problem paying higher prices for good food, but the food was not worth it. We would have been better off just going to a fast food seafood restaurant like Long John's Silver instead.

We are in town for New Years and a Chiefs game. Bristol’s was recommended by our Airbnb host and it did not disappoint. We made reservations for 6 top and arrived 15 minutes early and we were seated promptly. Adam was our waiter and was amazing. He is the reason for a solid 5 stars. He made great recommendations for us, kept our drinks filled at all times and cleared our table quickly after we finished with a serving. We started with cauliflower, calamari and oysters for appetizers. All three were very good, but the cauliflower stole the show. It was so good. Secondly, 3 of us had Cesar salads and they were great. The dressing is made fresh daily and it makes all the difference. My husband ordered the bisque and he was nice enough to swap with me halfway through because I loved the bisque when I tried his. For entrees we had a variety of things off the menu. One member of our party had the Tuna and said it was exceptionally good. Another had the filet and crab cake and loved both. He commented on the crab cake being the best he has ever had. Another member had the KC strip and said the flavor was great, but the steak was on the tough side. Another member had the chicken, it was a large serving and was very flavorful and good. The potatoes were a standout on this dish. I had the sea bass and it was okay. I’ve had better, but it was still pretty good. I didn’t finish all of it. It was. Bite rubbery and I probably wouldn’t order it again if I went back. Our last member decided on the lobster Mac and cheese. It was good, but not a stand out. Lastly we had cream brûlée for dessert. We are a bit of hard judges when it comes to crème brûlée and we would give this a 7/10. It needed a bit more toasting on the top. Over all we had a great evening with great friends along with exceptional serves from Adam. We will definitely come back if ever in KC.

Absolutely perfect place for an anniversary dinner. The service was spectacular and the food equally delicious. Every bite was worth it!

First time visiting the Power Light district location. We had a great time. Our servers Nick and Steve were great they were very attentive especially when other large parties arrived they still tended to our 6 top. We came in to celebrate our daughter's birthday and I was happy where our table was in front of the wine display vs some restaurants who seat a party of this size in a dark back corner. The vibe was great and so was the food. The only downside two guests at my table ordered the shrimp cocktail said it tasted not as fresh/still frozen vs what they've eaten at the Leawood location. All in all everything else was great. Staff was very nice and I am looking forward to returning.

Had the steak and lobster for dinner. Both done really well. The oysters were very tasty their old fashioned comes smoked in a mini decanter.
