succotash

the worstbreakfastexperience i have had in a very long time. server recommended the "kitchen sink" and it turned out to be just that; something u would picture inside a garbage disposal. i could hear microwave doors open and shut as i was the only one waiting for food. the cheese appeared to be melted via a microwave and the gravy was less than room temperature. would have been better off driving down the highway and throwing $10 out the window coz it would have been more rewarding. even though have been on diners, drive ins and dives, save yourself the disappointment and stop at mcdonalds or even better yjs snack bar

while visiting kc stumbled on this slice of brunch heaven. the service was exceptional! the restaurant is full of charm and character. the menu is healthy and fresh to your table. our favorite was the fresh pressed juice bar. we enjoyed it so much we went two days straight! can’t wait to return to kc so we can eat here! don’t miss the bestbreakfastin kc!

fantasticbreakfastjoint. lots to choose on the menu. one of my dining partners tried the sumo, which is a food challenge. he did not finish it. nice coffee bar.

wonderful place to visit in kc! fun atmosphere with a solid menu. nothing fancy, but well worth a visit. the fresh squeezed orange juice is amazing! thebreakfastentree called the kitchen sink is delish and enough for two. blueberry pancakes were beyond good.

my favorite meal to have when dining out is breakfast. when i find a spot with good gluten-free pancakes, they have a loyal customer in me. succotash is one such spot!

succotash is an eclectically decorated bruncheonette, servingbreakfastand lunch only. i would eat there if they were open for dinner, too, especially if they served pancakes.

great service and fresh ingredients! awesome duck stew and vegan deelight wrap! cuban was huge, monte cristo was amazing, and the zucchini gratin was so tasty! will definitely be returning, and want to trybreakfastitems next time!

happy stomach= a happy heart. i absolutely love this place. i've been eating at succotash since before they moved and have always left happy. the food is amazing, especially breakfast. the service can be a little slow but it's totally worth the wait. the portions are huge. (i always have enough left over forbreakfastthe next day!) i adore the fresh juices.

tried it twice now once forbreakfastand once for lunch. both times the service and the food was horrible.

funky neighborhood cafe. a really funky neighborhood place with a greatbreakfastselection. much more than just bacon and eggs. they have several fesh-made juices that will give you something different to drink. three of us spent about $45 and had plenty to eat.

i went forbreakfastmid morning with friends. it was my out first visit. when we first arrived we waited for 5 min by the 'please wait to be seated' sign. about 5 tables were filled and 2 servers running around. finally someone acknowledged us and said we could pick anywhere. we were there 90 min from arrival to the time we finally received our change for our bill. slow all the way around. the food was ok. i had blueberry pancakes with bacon and scrambled eggs. the pancakes were good and bigger than the plate. the eggs on the otherhand tasted as though the were cooked in the microwave too long. my friends had the veggie sink and salmon wrap. both said the dishes were good but not great. i would try them again but probably not again if the visit is like this one.

goodbreakfastjoint with a few problems.... i had the smoked salmon eggs benedict. for the most part, it was really good. the topping and sauce to muffin ratio was good--this is something i am a little particular about because i like to have everything in every single bite. the hollandaise was delicious--buttery and herbaceous. the muffin was a dense whole wheat kind that i think they over heated and then when it cooled it became hard. the first half i ate was fine but by the time i got to the second i couldn't cut it with the knife. the most disappointing part was the home fries. they were half completely burned and half completely limp while being wholly unseasoned.

this is my second visit to succotash. i remember liking my previous experience so despite these mishaps i will this give it another try in the future. i have read other reviews of mediocre service which i think just comes with the territory. i get the feeling that the servers only tend to their own tables and don't even acknowledge anyone that they are not personally waiting on. as a server myself, this is a little disheartening. team effort would go a long way.

meh. i wanted to like it but the food did not wow me. very typicalbreakfastfood. the giant picture of the woman with tomato soup dripping down her chin was extremely unappetizing and definitely affected my appetite. probably won't be back. too many other great spots in k.c.

yummy!. love it. greatbreakfastin an eclectic setting downtown. i always get the "cake and a smile" or the "kitchen sink". they serve cafe du monde coffee here which is amazing from new orelans. this is a staple brunch for my friends and me.

lil bit country, lil bit gourmet. first things first...a wildly popularbreakfastplace is going to be crazy busy on a saturday. what do you expect? so either wake up earlier, go on another day, or suck it up!

onto the place...we tried succotash for the first time on a friday morning. the place was pretty empty. our waitress (who was waiting on 4 other tables) was very responsive and always there before we needed her. my coffee never got below a half cup before being refilled. the decor is interesting...vintage light fixtures and decorating elements with modern art make it a little hipster-deco. imho, the booths were fabulous (but quite low)...wish i could've taken a post-breakfast nap there. my only complaint about the entire place was the unappetizing painting above our booth of a woman eating/dripping out of her mouth what looks to be blood soup. oh, and the buzzing fly that joined us at the end of our meal...but it was only one fly so i can deal.

now onto the food! hubby ordered the colossal blueberry pancakes. they were good, but i prefer my pancakes thicker and less chewy. fresh oj was very good. i had the smoked salmon benedict. it was delicious!! i loved the dill hollaindaise, smoked salmon, and capers, but my favorite part was the beer bread. it was one of the best breads i have ever had. chewy, kind of sweet, and super delicious! the potatoes were wonderful too. they were crispy fried and soft at the same time. mine came unseasoned so i had to add some s&p but that's fine with me. i didn't know what to eat first so by the time i got to my potatoes they were cold :(. next time, i'll eat them first.

in a world of mundane breakfast, succotash stands as an exception.breakfastmight be the most difficult meal to draw the masses in with, largely due to the difficulty of differentiating one's menu enough from the competitors' to justify travel time above and beyond that of going to the nearest local eatery. and that is what makes succotash so special. their menu is what i would consider 1/2 classic and 1/2 unique (and not the type of unique you would associate with abstract art that completely escapes you, but rather the type that hits you every time you see a new invention that's so obvious, you're mad for the next week that you didn't think of it sooner). portions are large, the food is prepared with an obvious passion, and for some strange reason service has improved since the recent move to 2601 holmes. so, if you find yourself feeling a little frisky in the morning (for food that is), and willing to go the distance, try succotash and have yourself a "cake" & a smile (which is actually on the menu).
