Grünauer offers an "authentic Austrian dining experience" with delicious Viennese cuisine and an impressive German beer selection. Guests rave about the "fantastic service" and cozy ambiance. The outdoor biergarten is a must, despite occasional rail noise. Known for its "world-class schnitzel," Grünauer is a Kansas City gem for both locals and visitors.

    We were regulars at this fantastic restaurant until we moved two years ago. Every time we return, Grünaeur is one of our first stops. The food, service, and friendly atmosphere make it a real treat. Highly recommended!!!!

    This is a must if you are in the area. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious. We sat at a table in the bar. It wasn’t noisy but busy. The waitress did a great job of helping us decide on appetizers, main courses, dessert and drinks. We will definitely go again. It was absolutely delightful!

    We were seated close to our reserved time. The staff was friendly and helpful. The cocktail and beer selection was excellent. The food selection was focused on the theme of the restaurant and everything we ordered was delicious.

    We enjoyed great service and great food at Grünauer. Our server was prompt to welcome us, friendly, and checked in often. The walleye fish was perfection: lightly crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. It was a lovely experience for me to have an extensive gluten-free menu. We enjoyed our anniversary dinner very much!
