Anton's

[Joe Smith]

Now serving Sunday brunch 10-2.

I hustled back from a little bike show in Olathe for brunch at Anton's and discovered they only do it on Sunday, so I then had to hustle over to Grinders by 12:30 to get in on their brunch instead. Got an omelet with bacon, feta cheese & avocado slices dripping with hollandaise sauce. With the toast & hash browns, it was damn good.

While at Anton's trying to recover from my dismay at no Saturday brunch, heard the head cheffie dude say that they would see how Sunday brunch's go and will more than likely do Saturdays as well.

Btw, Anton's was crowded at 12:15pm inside. He's doing some good business.

Btw, who the heck cuts off brunch at 12:30? That sucks.

Anton's was in the NYT Travel section today FYI. Called it one of the best steaks in KC, plus a number of quotes from Mr. Kotar himself. Good press....

We finally stopped in there after taking the Kauffman PAC tour yesterday. You can see my review on Yelp :

My 16 ounce, 28 day dry aged, grass fed, beef strip steak that I had at Anton's last Tuesday. It was one of the best steaks I'd ever eaten. This is how it was served to me. Never had a steak on it's side before. Almost 2 inches thick.

It's great that there is such good hunks of meat available so close to convention hotels. Kansas City is known for steak, and it's surprising how few steakhouses there are close to downtown hotels--at least ones that convention visitors can easily walk.

walked in last night around 9. totally packed.

I love that this place is successful, I am a frequent flyer there. Between the beer selection and the food, I won't even miss the beer garden that much over winter.

Good to hear the food came around. I figured it probably would, seemed a bit rough out of the gate though.

I happened to be there last weekend when they had a whole pig roast for their one year anniversary. It was rustic and just the way a pig roast should be. They had a homemade pit out back, and we watched the chef take the pig off the coals and carve it up. Great idea for that space, and hard to believe it has already been around for a year.

Have they got the self sustaining part of the restaurant going? Like the Tilapia farm in the basement? When I ate there last Christmas, they were just getting it started and the fish were too immature to eat.

That is a sexy piece of meat.

Would love to see the inside of that thing. Hopefully, rare.

They had it running when I went in May.

A bit of a late review, but I went there with my friends during my break. It was just three of us, so we couldn't make a reservation and ended up sitting at that bar adjacent to the kitchen.
It turned out to be the best choice as we got to converse with the chef and watch them prepare the steaks; it's pretty fun listening to him rant whenever an idiot would order their steak well-done.

Got a steak burger, which was wonderfully tender and flavorful.

I always get my steaks medium-rare and discovered that asking them to add a little extra char to it, makes my steak taste much better and completely eliminates the need for salt or steak sauce. Had one yesterday, It was effin awesome.

Their coleslaw that I got on the side was not that good. Time before that I had fries. Next time I gonna try something else and wouldn't mind a recommendation on a veggie side that goes well with their steak. The coleslaw didn't work at all for me. Too bland and uninteresting.
