    One of the best Italian restaurants we've ever ate at. We loved everything we ordered. The only thing I would recommend is looking at the menu online before you go in if it's your first visit. You order as soon as you walk in instead of at the table so I had to make a quick choice about what I wanted. Luckily we all made a good choice.

    Wow. I wish I visited here more during my stay in Westport. This was and is our hidden gem in Kansas City. Pasta made from scratch and delicious paninis. However, my boyfriend insists he has had the best desserts ever from Cupini’s. The pizza had a nice amount of sauce, boyfriend says he would have wanted more. Come try out and find out for yourself - they are delicious! The wine I could do without here, but the desserts are FOR SURE A MUST!! Service is very friendly and attentive. Their staff makes a great bonus to the location. Please visit this hidden gem (although not so hidden on Saturdays!! A lot of people like to come here for Brunch!)

    K.C is known for it's BBQ and should be. However Cupini's is an ecceptional place to eat Italian. The marinara is not too sweet or acidic. I had the meat ravioli, tried the lasanga, and a stuffed mushroom. The meat has a wonderful flavor, not overbearing with oregano like some Italian restaurants do. They were all supreme. Do yourself a favor, when in K.C take a break from the BBQ and check out Cupini's

    One the best and affordable Italian restaurants in KC. The food is delicious and the dessert is even better. They have pre made food that you can buy to go as well. I look forward to eating in again or ordering takeout for a quick dinner.

    Parking is tight and this is a Small, quaint place. Tough to order and/figure out the ordering process. A bit overwhelming for first timers like we were but worth the energy/wait FOR SURE. Once we ordered everything came out prompt, fresh and delicious! We dined in and it was our first time there. We ordered lasagna, bruschetta, tiramisu, a mini pizza, a caesar salad, wine and beer. It's great that your meal comes with a fountain beverage. I believe I saw and spoke with the owner briefly. After we sat at a dirty table, we noticed him present in pictures on the wall throughout the restaurant. He was cleaning and bussing tables and seen at the cashier station as well. We asked him where we stand to order and told him it was our first time there. He warmly welcomed us with a smile, showed us where we needed to stand to order and told us to grab a table where we can. The dining area is SUPER TIGHT but we loved the homey-feel and the warm ambiance. We saw him again while waiting for our food. He bussing a nearby table and I asked if he wouldn't mind cleaning ours when he was finished over there since we sat at a dirty one. He happily obliged and came right over to clean our table soon after. He was very kind, funny and helpful. This is our new favorite place!

    Absolutely amazing. I got the vegetable lasagna and it was incredible and definitely surprised me. The price was super reasonable (13 for a whole, 8 for a half) and the seating had just the perfect vibe. If I lived close to it, I could see myself eating here at least once a week.

    Overall great food, service, and environment. We sampled their homemade limoncello (lemon & orange cream) and it was also pretty good. Panini’s we’re pretty good.

    Very chill atmosphere, we weren't too hungry so we ordered a pizza and fettucini alfredo. Food was very well priced, less than $20 for both. Quick, friendly service and nice atmosphere for a casual date. Everything was fresh and came out fast. So delicious and perfect portions. This has to be the best kept secret in Kansas City, punches up with any of the top restaurants in St.Louis or the coasts. Definitely don't miss out on this place!

    Excellent food, many options to choose. From your own homemade noodles and sauces. Noodles, sauces, and deserts to take home and cook yourself!

    We found a review online, so we ventured in. The greeting, atmosphere, and food were all top-notch. We wound up ordering fettuccine noodles with bolagnoise sauce and a 6-inch Trevi pizza. So good. We will go back again.

    Some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. Super quick placing order, the wait was short. We ordered the chicken prosciutto tortellini, linguine with marinara and meatballs, 4-cheese pizza and the Franco pizza. All were so delicious. We are from out of town but we will definitely be making another stop again when we’re in the city!

    My husband and I went here tonight for a date night. I love how low-key this restaurant is! We have a family run Italian restaurant back home that’s similar that we love. I got gluten free penne with bolognese and meatballs. So good! My husband got toasted ravioli and chicken fettuccini Alfredo and loved his as well! My Caesar salad was wonderful! We had a busy day today, so we decided to take dessert home with us. The flourless cake is amazing! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful! We will be back next time we come to KC, for sure!

    Awesome food. Very small Italian restaurant feel and all around very cool! The cheese bread and lasagna were amazing! The desserts were spendy but they were 100% worth it and everything tasted very authentic!

    So I got the pleasure to check out Cupini's restaurant and tried a few things and I have to say they did not disappoint on any dish. Their Italian beef was very close if not the best sandwich of its kind that I've ever had, the bread itself was absolutely fantastic crispy and crunchy on the outside and buttery and Flaky on the inside simply fantastic! Their lasagna was very good the flavors were on point the marinara was delightful, the sausage alfredo calzone that I had was very good again the crust was very crispy on the outside but as soon as you bite in it's soft and delightful. The desserts were pretty good too had several different kinds I had a cannoli and the passion fruit cake definitely would get both again. All in all, this is a restaurant I will be going back to, to try more things and definitely a restaurant that I would recommend you trying.

    We had dinner at around 7:30 on a Saturday evening. There were three of us and we did wait a few minutes for a table, but as busy as they were it was no problem. This was our first time here, and it's a little different as you order at the counter when you come in, you get a number card, then you go look for an empty table. Next you collect your silverware and napkins at the drink station. By the time I completed the afore mentioned the food was arriving. There was cheese ravioli and Fettuccine Porcini at our table along with an order of bruschetta. My companions both liked their pasta dishes. The bruschetta was very good also. I got the Chicken Spiedini, it was good, but was unlike any I have had previously. First off the chicken breast stuffed with ham, tomato, onion and mozzarella and then it was baked. It was good, but if you order it expecting the pan fried breaded chicken on a skewer you may be disappointed. At the end of our meal we got a slice of White Chocolate mousse cake, it was excellent! It didn't last long enough for a photo. Cupini's is definitely Worth a visit.

    Hands down the best Italian food I've ever had, anywhere. Anytime I stay in KC or pass though I always stop in and get food. Their Carbonara is absolutely amazing, especially with thr Italian sausage. Best carrot cake I've ever had too. Prices are very reasonable for the portion and more so for the quality.

    If you live in KC or are just visiting, you must eat at Cupinis! Otherwise you're certainly not eating as well as you could be! We make sure to stop here every time we're in town, and the staff is always great, the food outstanding. Seriously, come eat here. You'll not be disappointed!

    Hands down and easily the best Italian food I've ever had in Kansas City. Better than anything I have eaten on The Hill in St. Louis. Their handmade pasta is incredible. Pictured is the sweet pea ravioli - full order.

  • 5/5 Courtney M. 5 months ago on Google
    I love this place so much. It is an awesome hole in the wall. It is my Roman Empire (iykyk). You do need to park around the back and walk up some stairs and through an out door hallway then to the right there is a door and you have to go to up to the register to order your food. It’s like a fast food restaurant after that where you have to fill your own drinks and find your own seats. HOWEVER, it is still one of my top 3 favorite restaurants.

  • 3/5 R V. 1 year ago on Google
    Was really looking forward to this and went with beef ravioli and cheese garlic bread. The cheese garlic bread was the better of the two. The pasta was not cooked through and the beef inside seemed to just be ground beef with seasonings inside... I may go back and try the tortellini with the white sauce before I buy them to bed forever.

    Today was our second time here and we absolutely love it whenever we come to KC! We've had scrumptious bruchetta, hearty meatball sandwich, lasagna (big enough for two to share), pizza delivered hot with an absolutely scrumptious crust, spaghetti with bolognese (fabulous) and pumpkin ravioli in a creamy Sage sauce with crushed almond cookie that was simply out of this world! They have inside seating or a lovely patio in the back.

    My folks have been recommending this place for a while now and yesterday I finally got to experience the greatness of what they explained as the best fresh noodles in town. Cupini's food was delicious, well timed and well served. My group sat on their patio and very much enjoyed how open and pleasant it was out there! We never had to wait long at all for our food despite that we went through several rounds of orders and I was impressed with their fried eggplant, as I wasn't a fan of others I've tried before. This place is a great environment for a night our with your spouse or just a nice dinner out with relatives. It's classy, but comfy and offers excellent service. I will be back!

    The prepared food section is enough to sweep you off your feet. On top of that, they offer an eat in portion to their shop that is wonderful. We had the margarita pizza and the Alfredo cheese tortellini. Both were superb. We also bought chicken Parmesan from the prepared section to take home and it was wonderful!
