Garozzo's Ristorante Due	Independence, MO

This location lacks the ambience of the downtown location, and that begins from the moment you take a non-descript access road to FIND the place (as in, you'll be searching if you're not familiar with the area). Inside, the decor is pretty standard for a family restaurant. As stated portions are literally family-sized (for each person), although there is no particular quality that makes the food stand out. It's good food, but it's not special. All-in-all, it is the quantity and not the quality that justifies the price. less

Nothing worth driving to, but if you live within 10 minutes and are looking for some faily good Chinese food, this is a good place to try. The staff is friendly, and the food is (just) above-average for Chinese cuisine buffets in the US. less
Pappi's Pizza & Pub	Lees Summit, MO
The food is okay, but that's not what makes this restaurant worth visiting. Actually nothing in particular is, but the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, and this turns out to be a great place for extended families to get together.

Actually nothing in particular is, but the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, and this turns out to be a great place for extended families to get together. The food is American pizza, and the quality is fair, though not spectacular. less
Jumpin Catfish	Lees Summit, MO
Quality has gone downhill since this restaurant first openned. The catfish has so much breading that you cannot taste the fish. Then again, where else can you regularly get catfish in this area anyway? The answer to that question alone makes this ... more Quality has gone downhill since this restaurant first openned. The catfish has so much breading that you cannot taste the fish. Then again, where else can you regularly get catfish in this area anyway? The answer to that question alone makes this restaurant worth a (as in one) visit. less
Fuddruckers	Independence, MO

The meat is extremely fresh and extremely high quality, and you can taste it from the moment you walk in the door and the unctuous odor hits your taste buds. Though not the cheapest burgers you can buy, they are certainly among the most delicious, and you can make it EXACTLY how you want it, as you'll get it plain on a fresh bun, waiting for you to choose not only which toppings you want, but just how much of each you'll indulge yourself with. less
Burger Boy	Lees Summit, MO

The main reason to come here is, however, is for the nostalgia. This type of burger joint was popular a couple of decades ago, and for those of us who remember them (whether as adult or, like myself, as kids), the nostalgia factor makes that shake taste just that much better. less
Paul's Drive In	Kansas City, MO

For those who grew up here and know the history, you almost expect Richie or the Fonz to walk through the door at any moment. The food isn't great, and the honest truth is that the restaurant isn't worth any more than an average rating, but for me at least, there's still something appealing about it. less
Wood Roasted Pizza	Lees Summit, MO

The wood roasted pizza just plain tastes better, and the staff is fantastic too. This is the place to take your family for pizza when you're trying appease everybody's taste. The service will satisfy all but the most uppity of sophistocates, and the food will do likewise (with desserts as fine as their teramisu). less

At this point, the only reason to go there is to remember the past and to let your kids play video games while waiting for the pizza to come. There is no particular area where this restaurant excels. For FUN, kids would prefer the Pizza place formerly known as Show-biz, and for higher quality food, well, your choices are fairly open. less

In general, however, this is the original and best of the Gorozzo's restaurants. The house wines are decent, and better quality wines are always available (Carl will help you choose an excellent wine if you're lucky enough to get him as your waiter). Both the quantity and the food fit the price, though taken together, you'll feel like you're getting a bargain. It is an excellent restaurant to take a date or business guest, with a fine ambiance fitting for either. A great restaurants for families too, though the youngest children might not fit the environment perfectly. Certainly worth trying! less
