Welcome to the Crossroads, where Kansas City comes together. An evening at Lazia begins at the hearth with a complimentary house amaro blend as the sound of hip hop's greatest legends fill the room. The menu is both familiar and surprising in its selection of Italian favorites. It offers a collection of Cicchetti and Antipasti to start your meal; an expertly prepared and seasonal selection of handmade, fresh pastas; a satisfying collection of Secondi; and few moments of surprise & delight!

Named for another Crossroads O.G. and pal of Pendergast, Johnny Lazia, our dinner-only restaurant sits at the Crossroads of Italian culinary inspiration and the farms and fields of the Heartland in the Midwest.

We are currently open 7 days a week from 5:00pm - 10:00pm
Valet Parking for Lazia guests is $9, but street parking is also available.

Lazia is happy to accommodate most dietary restrictions.

                                                        Our first visit to Lazia was a very good one. It is located in a very unique space that took some doing to navigate as newbies. The food was excellent and the staff were all very professional and helpful, especially our server Abbie.

                                                        “No bread for you” sat down without the usual aperitif I’ve always received when we ate there. Asked for some bread as we were all very hungry and hadn’t decided which menu items we were going to order. “Chef won’t allow us to give bread without ordering, he doesn’t want you filling up on bread.” Uh ok. We’ll order drinks on an empty stomach I guess. Order drinks and one comes out with a long hair on it. “We’re going to remake that for you” uh yes, goes without saying. What they did well - my daughter has a gluten allergy and they were great about letting us know what items were gluten friendly and which would need a modification and which simply weren’t possible. The rest of the experience: non va bene

                                                        The Mozzarella Madame is well worth it for just the experience alone. I don’t normally like tomato, but this was a delicious exception.

                                                        Amazing! It was a perfect night out with my sister. We felt pampered from the moment we got there to when we left. Don’t underestimate the sorbet for desert! Staff were the best!

                                                        Outstanding food, one of the best restaurants in the KC area. Good service--the waitress was able to explain everything on the menu. Different from a typical Italian restaurant. But not just different, very good food.
