Reviews Bar Louie

It was our first time here and a good experience. The food is ok/Service is good/Chips & Guacamole and Sweet Corn were great / Small Margaritas if you try the flight, but they are great.. Plate portions are pretty good size. The atmosphere was a 8/9. Bar upstairs was not open till 5pm that was a bummer. We really wanted to check it out. Will have to go back and have appetizers and cocktails upstairs.

My wife and I went in for lunch and the food, customer service, and drinks were amazing! The painkiller margarita was very tasty! The portion sizes are very generous and meals have well balanced flavor notes. For sure going back to try more meals and drinks!

Been back several times including a party of 30 . Food and service have been great each time. The tequila and mezcal drinks are really good. Half off apps for happy hour are a great deal. 3rd trip experience: Had the shrimp stuffed poblano pepper and green chili chicken enchiladas....even better than last time. I'm not lying to you KC when I say this is legitimately the best. The reason I think several reviews are low is the restaurant had to stop offering adult drinks due to a liquor license issue that arose at the very opening of this new location. Anyway, this place is offering up great green chili and service. Keyla was awesome too. 2nd trip experience: Listen up KC, this local family has been through a lot to open this Zona spot so let's support them because this is great Mexican food (I know because we grew up in New Mexico). The Zona location really has an awesome vibe and rooftop too. The food is delicious and mezcal is really good. This is a legit spot to enjoy true Mexican food and atmosphere. The bar is huge and staff were friendly on both visits. I wish the Zona restaurant Manager could post on FB and Google more about what's going on. Margarita selection is also great (likely the best in KC). The Mezcal brand illegal is delicious chilled. Tacos, fajitas, enchiladas and the poblano shrimp plates are very good. Excellent first experience. Place was packed so snuck in at the bar. Chips and salsa were immediately brought out. Bartender immediately asked us what we like to drink and made recommendations. We asked for drink recommendations which were the Oaxaca margarita and jalapeno margarita. We asked to try the house tequila and were very surprised at how good it was. Their custom tequila has a little bit of sweet to it which makes it easy to drink and is 80 proof. After perusing the menu, we found plenty that we would like and made the difficult choice of street tacos plus poblano shrimp dish. Service was outstanding and people around us were super cool. This is our new Taco Tuesday place and We didn't even get to try the rooftop! Great job and glad you guys are here.

Soft opening taken into consideration. Really like the atmosphere, music and vibe. Waitress seemed very new to food service and did get a couple of things wrong. Had the margarita flight. The house margarita was good, Pina Colada also good, BlackBerry was ok, the mango was suppose to be the Mangolada but I got mango on the rocks and it wasn’t a favorite. The house tequila shot on the side w was really nice, a little sweet. I ordered the Poblano. It came out flat which I didn’t expect but very good on flavor, no stems and rice is also light and delicious. Husband had the taco platter and requested soft shell but got regular hard shell. All good. Definitely going back to try some other things and also their Happy Hour.

Reviews did not give us the best first impression, but this is where my neice wanted to go & it was her graduation pick for the family dinner. We were seated pretty quickly and found service to be good. The food was also good.... what was amazing was the house tequila that comes with every flight of margs. We can't wait until they start to sell it by the bottle! It was delicious & tequila is not really my jam, but their's is an exception! We would definitely eat there again & think maybe they have worked some of the new opening glitches out.

Great place for dinner. Nice stuff. Good outdoor sitting. Big portions. Enough to share. Might be considered a bit pricey.

This has become our favorite Mexican restaurant in all of Kansas City! So happy they opened business. Try it out. We have not had a single thing that was not absolutely delicious. The service is great and the ambience is wonderful.
