The Scene A cathedral ceiling with extravagant chandeliers provides an aesthetic view for those seated in the main dining area. The polished staff, adorned in crisp white shirts and black slacks quickly tends to each table. Try one of Lidia's notable sparkling wines at the romantically lit bar, and enjoy the vision of a towering stone fireplace. The... more

Located in a renovated railway freight house behind Union Station and sporting exposed ceiling beams, brick walls, and an outdoor patio, this very popular restaurant (owned by TV culinary star Lidia Bastianich) specializes in excellent yet affordable Northern Italian cuisine. Try the three-pasta sampler, delivered to your plate straight from the kitchen via a frying pan (you can have as much as... more

Lidia Bastianich, famous New York City restaurateur, chose Kansas City for her first restaurant venture outside the Big Apple. With help from New York architect David Rockwell, she reclaimed an abandoned century-old freight house, a stone’s throw from the Union Station-Science City Museum. This handsome restaurant is anchored by a two-story stone fireplace and embellished with several... more

Having watched Lidia's Italy on multiple occasions, I was truly looking forward to dinner here. Unfortunately, it was so disappointing. For the appetizer, we took the server's recommendation.

I love her show on PBS, and the food is as good as it looks on tv! Prices are more for special occasions or dates, but if you have the dough you should give it a go. The prix-fixe pasta choice is the best way to enjoy all there is to offer.

Lidia's has the best Italian Food you'll ever find. It is very authentic and I've never had anything bad. I would recommend Spaghetti and Meatballs if you're looking for tradition or try the special if you'd like to branch out a bit. The atmosphere is great and I know I will never be disappointed.
