In a world filled with trendy steakhouses featuring everything from prime-aged beef to authentic Kobe flown in from Japan, it’s difficult to find a workingman’s steakhouse that our reviewers can recommend. But this classic roadhouse located on the fringes of Kansas City fits that description; it has been serving up steaks since 1938. As is the case with almost every Kansas City restaurant that has received national attention, Calvin Trillin is the reason, and the profile of the restaurant he published in Playboy magazine in 1972 is proudly displayed in the restaurant’s dining room. |
