What a hidden jewel!! We are so happy to have found Cafe Des Amis. Yes it’s just as good as it looks! This was our second time back and and it definitely will not be our last. Such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. We enjoy sitting at the bar so we can visit with the owner Guillaume who most assume is just a French waiter. Thanks again for wonderful food and service!

It has been years since I had been here and after going last night, kind of upset with myself it's been so long! From start to finish, I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT CAFE DES AMIS. I called same day, on a Wedneaday after and the owner was able to squeeze us in for a midweek romantic dinner:). The husband and wife pair that own/run this business are TOP NOTCH. The food quality is mind blowing and literally wanted more of everything we tried. The fresh maid lavender infused butter was absolutely incredible and made the entire dinner that much more enjoyable. The fresh bread they give you is absolutely out of this world and perfectly baked. The husband being a pastry chef and the wife being a chef back in the kitchen makes this place even that much more enjoyable with a fabulous back story. The pictures that I am going to post with this absolutely do not do this place Justice whatsoever. I would recommend expecting to be here at least an hour and a 1/2 to enjoy the full experience. The wine menu is also very unique and educational giving you the wines the area of the world they come from and then the pricing. Then you flip to the back of the wine menu and it describes every single wine they offer in detail and show you a picture of the bottle, very nice touch! We had a very enjoyable and laugh filled conversation at the end of the evening with the owner himself. He is so full of life energy and humor! If you even kind of like French inspired food, You just need a place to go one evening for a nice dinner with your significant other, Or perhaps your celebrating something very special. You would literally be doing yourself an injustice and missing out on this little piece of joy in your life. If you did not try this restaurant at least once!

Wow!!!!! This place is awesome. The staff was very helpful, energetic, and very professional. This was only half of a great dining experience for the whole family. We showed up with no reservation and were seated at the bar and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Everyone was more than excited as each plate came out. The mussels were extraordinary, and the wine and meal were top-notch. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I had high expectation from the review. The atmosphere was amazing, perfect for a date night. The service was pretty slow and price were high, we were ok with this. The waitress didn't really come and check on us as much as we’d expect. They didn’t give us the breads until we asked and it was’t warm. The bread reminded me of italian bread with no flavor. Here is the review of the food. Pate with pickles were good. Mussels dish was quite bad. The broth was off and the muscle was overcooked and not fresh. Lamb was great. Soft and flavorful. The potato that came with the dish is terrific. Bouillabaisse was terrible. The broth was sour, lacks salt and seafood umami flavor that expects of this type of broth. Seafood were not flavorful. A big disappointment. Souffle. Good but not special Panna cotta. The texture was off. Overall, the foods were pretty standard to quite bad on some dish. French foods are much more flavorful and well prepared this. Pretty big disappointment. Total of my bill was $150 for two people and one glass of wine.

Cafe des Amis has to one of the best kept secrets of KC. They excel in everything from food, service, to atmosphere. This hidden gem is worth visiting. Their menu changes to pair with the season. You have an excellent selection and each dish is harmonious combination of flavor. Their dessert options are scrumptious in their own right, but the passionfruit sorbet will take you back with its perfectly tangy/sweet flavor.

One bite and it's easy to tell these chefs know what they're doing. Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The staff was attentive and personable, and the atmosphere was surprisingly comfortable with music and heaters for their outdoor dining area. We are looking to go back again soon

I can’t say enough about this place. Been wanting to go for 3 years and finally had an excuse for my birthday. The wine list is beyond impressive and expertly curated. The menu is exotic and features food unlike anything else you will find in KC. The Prince Edward Island Mussels and Pan-Roasted Quail were incredible as was the crime brûlée and soufflé we had for dessert. This is a wonderful hidden gem in Parkville that I would recommend to anyone.

We just stopped by on our way back from airport. Food options were limited because may be its authentic french place but deserts were really good and I also liked their signature crepe
