Society - Kansas City

A KANSAS CITY MUST TRY EXPERIENCE! 5 STAR!This is a go to date night place for my husband and I. We 've brought so many people here and recommend it to any one traveling to KC. Nothing but great service, food and atmosphere every time. It 's hard to choose what to order because everything is absolutely delicious. Our favorite dishes are the Ahi Tuna Nachos, Spicy Cajun Chicken Pasta and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. The drinks are one of a kind too. My husband loves the old fashioned whiskeys from the Scarlet Room and I love Palauxma mocktails. The Scarlet Room has a speak easy feel, with the dim lighting and deep red velvet seating. The main area is more of an open, fun, high energy night out on the town feel . Really perfect for any occasion.

We had a reservation for 9 people, so we had to call in to make the reservation- the owner said we could early to have a drink at the Scarlet Room prior to dinner @7:30. We get there and Scarlet Room is closed; it opens at 10pm. Service was not great but they may just be short staffed. It took nearly 30mins for our drinks, over an hour to get our food. The food was horrendous. We came here for Restaurant Week and we 're excited to try a lot of things. Everything was absolutely horrible. Steaks were thin and overcooked, Mashed potatoes were box mix with raw garlic, lava cakes dinner have ice cream, the cilantro lime rice was just white rice with corn sour cream on top, and drinks were super syrupy. They ran out of other dessert items and no one told us until we hadn 't been served for +30 minutes and had to track someone down to see where our desserts were. One person didn 't get her entree until others got their dessert. In all we spent THREE HOURS there. Pictured is the espresso martini flight (gross also, they 're just black flavored coffee vodka) and the ribeye dinner.I would never recommend this place for food. The waitress did comp our desserts but we had to pay for all of the other inedible food.

I went there last week for KC Restaurant week. Never been. The place is gorgeous and a very dope atmosphere. Our server Raven was good. I just wish they had more servers that night, because she had too many tables for 1 person. On to my meal. I ordered off the Restaurant week menu. I had the ribeye steak. I ordered it well. It came out dry and tough. And I did not eat it. The manager would not take it off my bill because he said couldn't discount just the steak from the restaurant week price. He also said that ordering it well, it will always come iut like that. I went to 2 other restaurants during restaurant week the previous weekend and both places i ordered a steak, well done, and they came out juicy and tender. So basically paid for a steak I didn't eat at Society. In my opinion, he could have taken off the whole meal and just charged me separately for the items I DID eat. salad, Brussels sprouts, and mashed potatoes. I was very disappointed in the way it was handled. I'll probably be back, but probably just for drinks. They also got another order at my table wrong. But overall, it's a nice happy hour or summer spot to go to!Parking: It was difficult finding a parking spot. I ended up parking around the corner in a garage. Probably won't go back until it's warm.

45 minutes and still no food. Had to ask for water.

Went to Society with a party of 8 during Restaurant Week and the place was ok. The food was ok. I started with a Ceasar Salad that was pretty good with the cornbread croutons being the highlight having a softer texture with a great taste. Then it was some pretty good Mac and Cheese but the main dish wasn't anything to write home about.I ordered the Spicey Chicken Sandwich and it came with some good seasoned fries but the sandwich itself was pretty boring for a $22 main entree. The sandwich seemed to rely more on the spicy sauce while the sandwich wasn't really fried. To me it was just a bigger version of a plain Spicy Chicken Sandwich with only pickles from Chick-fil-A. I was hoping for more for the cost.Besides that when my party received their orders, Rib eye steak, two of their orders had cold mashed potatoes that had to be sent back.The Chicken sandwich was not worth the price but my group seemed to really like their orders so maybe their Chicken sandwich is the weak link for entrees.
