Set in Kansas City’s historic City Market, Brown and Loe Restaurant’s inviting atmosphere is a blend of “big city” bistro with the welcoming casual flavor of a neighborhood favorite. Housed in a former Merchant’s Bank constructed in 1920, the restaurant honors the architectural details of the two-story building which features a façade of plate glass and verde marble floors and walls. In the 1940’s, Brown and Loe was originally a produce broker with offices on the second floor of the Merchant’s Bank building. The new Brown and Loe Restaurant celebrates the techniques of curing, pickling and smoking meats, beautifully interpreted into marvelous American comfort cuisine. This is a true local venue, evidenced by the restaurant’s allegiance to the resident farmers and food artisans who supply most of the restaurant’s fresh ingredients. Brown and Loe Restaurant is the second dining concept introduced by Harry Murphy, owner of the City Market’s popular Harry’s Country Club.

The four of us agreed that the meal was one of the best we have ever had! We also had dessert, which was just the right size for two to share. Was quiet enough that we could visit easily with friends. Will definitely fo again!

I hadn’t been to Westside Local for brunch in years and I have no idea why I stopped! I had the most amazing pumpkin French toast with cinnamon whipped cream that both I and my toddler loved. Staff was wonderful! Overall, an awesome experience.

We truly enjoyed our dining experience in the Jazz room at the Majestic! The oysters- excellent, the prime rib- awesome, the baked potato HUGE, the only minor thing was the Waygu steak my husband had was a little sub par. The Jazz combo was great! Finally our waiter-Mickey was super attentive and helpful! The ambiance of this restaurant is amazing! We would definitely recommend and eat here again when in KC!

My wife and I met up with another couple for drinks in their Christmas pop up bar. The drinks were very good and we enjoyed the creative names and selection. We ordered a charcuterie board and the deviled eggs and they did not disappoint. Stephanie did a very good job taking care of us.
