    Had an absolutely lovely dinner here. I did the four course meal for $45 and on Monday it’s half off wine! They had a great vegetarian entree option. The food was fresh and flavorful. Our server was excellent. I would definitely come back here when in KC. I ate here with my colleague - there were many couples out on dates. Very cute restaurant with an excellent dining experience!

    Delicious, delicious food! Their breakfast offerings are superb. I love their breakfast potatoes. One of the best steak and eggs Benedict I've tried!

    At fabulous locatioin near KU Medical Center on 39th street. We had the scallops, which were excellent. The Albarino wine was excellent also. We also had a the lump crab cake that was very tasty. This is a great location for a quiet and romantic dinner. They do have a full bar. It is one of our favorite spots for a quite evening dinner.

    I love this place. Though parking was a little easier at the now-defunct location in Mission Farms, the original location on 39th Street does an excellent job of blending upscale dining with the neighborhood’s bohemian spirit. The menu is ever-shifting (often differing even from the restaurant’s own web site), but I’ve never gotten a bad dinner here. My most recent meal included soup, asparagus tempura and grilled shrimp. They also do a great job with cocktails. I started with a Spritz39 and then moved on to a Newly Fashioned, the latter of which was exceptionally strong. A quick caution for anyone bothered by noise: at peak times, things can get loud in here. But it’s easy enough to make a reservation for a slower spot in the schedule. The food, atmosphere and service are worth it in any event.

    In KC for a vacation and went to Room 39 for breakfast. The restaurant has a great atmosphere even if slightly cramped. We made a reservation which was not required, but was a good call as the restaurant is not very big - when we got there, there was maybe 3 tables open inside and both outside tables were also open, but when we left only 1 table was open, so I would recommend making a reservation. My wife got the Artichoke Toast, I got the Croque Madame, and 1 of our teenage boys got the Waffles and the other got the Brioche French Toast. You know all were excellent when we were arguing about who had the best. I sampled them all and they were all great. One thing we all agreed on was that the breakfast potatoes were fantastic & I would recommend getting them with any order! The coffee was solid, not the best I've ever had but good and hot. All the meals were in the $12-$13 range and the drinks were $3.50 even the coffee, which I thought was a little high, but maybe not for KC. Overall it was an A+ experience and we would recommend eating here to anyone.

    Stopped in here for brunch on our last day visiting the area and so so wish we had found this place on day one!!! We would have been here everyday!! Not only is the food and atmosphere amazing, but owner Andrew Folger behind the bar is the best! He truly made this an incredible experience for us. He is hilarious! Best food in the area. Best service in the area. Lots of friendly regulars were coming in. They are very accommodating to dietary needs and they don't upcharge for every little thing. Great wine selection (not one single basic grocery store brand). Good quality prosecco. The best espresso martini I've had in a long time. Not too sweet and really good with a pinch of salt. Nothing is from frozen. The steak and eggs Benedict were amazing (only available on the weekends) and the salmon scramble was soo good. If you like spicy, do yourself a favor and order Lupe's salsa with everything. Bacon is thick cut and good quality.

    Enjoyed this spot. Friendly staff too. I had the crab cakes and they were delightful. They had a constant flow of people there to enjoy their Sat Brunch menu.. Great neighborhood - super adorable craftsman homes! I went back with family and it was a stellar brunch experience again!

    This beet / beef burger was top notch! Flavor, freshness, good portions and the fresh tea's are amazing! I'll be back here again soon! Decent prices, close to several other places and the hospital if you eat to much.

    Impressing 3 foodies is a task surpassed by Room 39, a charming farm-to-table establishment with new menus each day and personable service! Steelcut trout and orange creme brulee pictured. We're already planning our return!

    This place is so wholesome and always pleasant to visit. They have fresh food and excellent service. Their lunch menu is really nice and affordable. Some dinner menus on are questionable and ordinary for its price, but if you select well, they’re wonderful.

    When searching for a local brunch spot Room 39 was high on a lot of lists. Deservedly so. We arrive on time for our reservation and we're sat promptly. Our waiter answered all our questions and the food came out quickly. It was very tasty and was just the right amount of food. Not too much like some brunch spots. Would definitely visit again.

    Stopped in here for breakfast today and we could write a 5-star review alone about the fried onions and crispy potatoes that accompanied the fantastic buttermilk waffles. What can I say to elucidate my passion for these onions? The fineness of the cut and the caramelization turned them delicately crunchy. In fact they were cut so finely they were rendered into lovely ribbons we ate bit by bit. My child exclaimed the waffles were the best she has ever had, and indeed, the crumb and soft texture and fantastic air holes were met with a fantastic crunch to the outside with perfect powdered sugar on top. As for me, I enjoyed a beautiful and peppery artichoke toast with perfectly poached eggs atop. Alas I have no photographs to prove any of this because the food is now safely stored in our happy tummies. Thanks for a lovely Sunday morning, Room 39. Go Chiefs!

    Room 39 has excellent entrées on their menu. You could make your choice as light or as hefty as you prefer. I love their liver and mushroom gnocchi so much!! My daughter was in love with her breakfast potatoes 🥔

    This was the best food I've eaten in Missouri! Our family came here for brunch. My son had the Belgian waffles with a side of bacon, my husband had the salmon and eggs, and I had the croque madame. Everything was absolutely delicious. I was impressed with the organic hot tea selection and fresh squeezed lemonade with Pellegrino and they source their ingredients from local farms. It's in a cool old building with lots of funky, nostalgic touches. And our server was fantastic. I did remove one star because there was a large piece of art that was inappropriate for family dining, but otherwise it was a wonderful experience and I will definitely come back when in KC.

    We had a party of 13 for a birthday brunch (including children), in which a majority were 45 minutes late to... we really appreciated how friendly and accommodating the staff was! They allowed us and few other tables to finnish up and hang out even after they were closed without rushing us or expressing any annoyance 💖

    Food was amazing. Service was good. Atmosphere was just okay. Not sure why but couldn't get any kind of vibe from the place, kind of weird. Our servers first day but he did very well. The Goat cheese gnocchi was so so good! Duck was really special as well. Don't bother on bread pudding, it was more of a blueberry muffin. Cocktails were great too.

    We really enjoyed the atmosphere here. Candlelit tables, low lighting, pleasant service. The food was delicious and full of rich flavors. We had the pasta boloagnase, mushroom risotto, and flour less chocolate torte. We'd recommend them all and can't wait to be back to try more.

    A foodie friend was in town and wanted to try some place that is a sort of hidden gem of KC. I've heard great things about Room39 so I got us reservations. Calling in to make a reservation a half hour before we planned to be there was easy. The gentleman on the phone was courteous and helpful. At the restaurant the serving staff let us choose to eat outside on the sidewalk. It was a very nice evening and enjoyable being out there instead of what appeared to be a dark and more intimate interior. Sitting outside had some downsides though. It felt like we were forgotten a bit and, at no fault of the restaurants, I did get shot by some gel pellets by some people driving by. Drinks - I asked for a recommendation between a couple choices and was recommended the hibiscus mocktail. It was alright. Nice color, decent flavor but a bit closer to bland-bitter than tart-sweet. My buddy ordered a couple cocktails. Something with orange peel and another based on the server's recommendation. He said both were awful. Food - I ordered the Pair of Spiced Quail (pictured) and he ordered the Filet au Poivre (refer to menu pic). He loved his meal! He said it was flavorful and not too spicy. The veg he enjoyed. But mostly the green peppercorn cream. However, he did expect more steak for the price he paid and it was a bit over cooked than what he asked for. The Pair of Quail were nicely seasoned and very well cooked. The farro and sorghum were great! I could have eaten that quail by itself without the sauce and it would have been brilliant. In fact, I should have eaten it without the harissa because that, for me, ruined the dish. The harissa teased me with smoky, spicy possibilities but it was a huge let down. There was no spice to it. There was flavor communicating spice should be here, but I was just left with sweetness throughout. I kept trying it hoping the spice would kick in but it never did. I'm not sure how they made their harissa but it just tasted like chili powder, paprika and brown sugar. Pretty to look at, not enjoyable to eat. Dessert - the creme brulee (pictured), the custard was too thick, too warm, the raspberry had no flavor: not sweet, not tart, nothing. Nice caramel on top; good crack, not burned. I should have taken my $9 and bought the ingredients to do it myself. Tl;dr: nice staff! A for looks, B- for taste, C for value. Sit outside but you might get shot at.

    Lovely spot for lunch. Crabcakes and flourless chocolate torte were wonderful. Cool atmosphere and a nice way to treat yourself on a trip to KU Med!

    The service was good; we went about 1:30, got a table right away and our food was out fast. My sister loved her chicken salad sandwich with bacon and we liked both of the soups. My husband and I ordered the brioche French toast which had really no flavor to it (and they had no sugar-free syrup); the bacon and potatoes that came with it were very good! Our son ordered the biscuits and gravy and it was extremely bland. Breakfast is served until 3:00 everyday which was a plus for us. However, I would order the chicken salad next time and steer clear of the French toast until they add some flavor to it.

    Went here for Sunday brunch with my wife and another couple. All of us really enjoyed our food and our brunch cocktails. I had the steak and eggs benedict and it was delicious. The seating was a little congested for my liking but not enough to deter us from coming back in the future!
