Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Crushed Red? Never heard of it before. But when I was looking on the map for a good place to eat lunch on our way through KC, I found this place near an iconic steak burger place I was considering and the menu looked much better than steak burgers. It sure was! Everything was not just good. It was very good. delicious! I would definitely go back. The menu sufficiently differentiates this place from other places I would place in this category, such as Panera Bread. So now that I know about this place, If I had to choose between it and Panera, I would go here at least 50% of the time, if not a little more. It’s also a little more upscale than Panera and had an alcoholic drink selection as well which is nice for those who are looking for that. Staff was very young, polite, courteous, quick, and professional. No complaints. Place was very clean. There was a baby changing station in both the men’s and women’s restroom, which me and my wife appreciated because it allowed us to change both our toddlers diapers at the same time. There were high chairs that made it simple to feed our kids. I got a 1/2 & 1/2. This Pear is On Fire along with the 4 cheese pizza. I would defiantly get the salad again, but I wouldn’t get the pizza again. The pizza was really good, but I want to try many of the other options and 4 cheese was a little boring in light of all the other options. Wife got the Tunapalooza salad. She really liked it and would get it again. Kids got the special roast beef sandwich with the roasted red pepper with smoked Gouda cheese soup. Both were really good. The soup tasted like a richer and more flavorful tomato soup.

First going to Crushed red. We got cream corn appetizer with some sort of chips. Very small portion for $15. Was very bland. Took it back to try the soup. The mushroom bisque. It tasted like it came out of a can. Will not be going back.

Good afternoon. I Uber and this was one of my pickups. I never expected this place to sell salads. The restaurant is very beautiful and neat. I didn't get to try anything but I'm pretty sure it was good.
