Osteria Il Centro

If you are thinking about going to Il Centro - go!!! It’s an adorable space, the food is delicious and the staff is wonderful! From the minute we walked in, the entire staff treated us exceptionally. They work as a team to make sure customers have the best experience. Let’s talk about the food! The bruschetta and olive tapenade were both wonderful. I had the chicken parmesan and it was delightful and fed me for two additional meals - what an investment in delicious leftovers!!! My husband had the lamb chops and really enjoyed them. The dessert was the shining star! It was my birthday, so we ordered the tiramisu. Our waiter, Maddie, suggested the espresso martini and it was an excellent pairing. I wasn’t surprised because Maddie was knowledgeable, helpful and amazing all evening. At the end of the night, the icing on the cake was a bottle of wine with all the staff’s signature. If you are looking for a special night and a caring crew of folks, Osteria Il Centro is the place to be!

The food and service was top notch, but to be honest, this place is worth the trip for the bread alone. It's ridiculously delicious. I'm not even remotely joking, I could live on it happily for the rest of my life. And to top off a wonderful evening celebrating my husband's birthday, they gifted him a bottle of wine after we tabbed out. We will definitely be returning

We decided to try Osteria I’ll Centro for our anniversary dinner. I’m so happy we did. The food is delicious. We both had the Caprese appetizer, generous size, very tasty. I wasn’t a fan of the bread but my husband loves it. I had eggplant Parmesan for my entree. I’m extremely picky about eggplant after living in the Northeast, it was delicious! Large portion that I brought half home. My husband had the short ribs ravioli. He typically doesn’t go for pasta and said this was outstanding. I wish we had save room for dessert.. next time Extensive wine and whiskey list. Ample parking. Great experience

Osteria Il Centro is our go-to date night spot. The atmosphere is quaint and welcoming. I try to get a different entree each visit, and my wife and I are always completely happy with our dinners. IMO, they have THE best Italian food in KC. Their cocktails and desserts are also amazing. Not to mention the top-notch service every single time! Support this KC gem!

I took a couple bites of the tiramisu before taking a photo but this is by far my favorite Italian restaurant in KC. The atmosphere is so quaint and the staff is phenomenal without a doubt and are very knowledgeable about the selections of wine/alcohol and menu. I try to come here as often as possible! It is truly a one and only restaurant if you're wanting genuine quality with great staff and food ❤.
