"Visited during Restaurant Week (RW) on a Saturday night. We were seated around 7pm. Atmosphere was nice, not super busy which surprised us during RW. We finished dinner and drinks around 10pm. The atmosphere began shifting from restaurant to a night club around 930pm. Looked like things were getting ready to be electric! On to the food and service. First off, the server was great, even though overwhelmed. Seemed to be the only one running around. Since this was RW we had a choice of four main courses and a couple of us chose to upgrade to the ribeye. Unfortunately, the ribeyes that were delivered were about a 1/2" thick. I asked for the cook on mine to be "chef's choice" expecting the chef to cook the way "it should be". I only do this with ribeyes as the chef usually likes to show off and make it perfect. Unfortunately, my 1/2" ribeye came out medium-well. So, you know how that went. I'll take the blame here since maybe this chef prefers ribeyes more cooked through than me. My buddy had a slightly better steak as he ordered his medium-rare. They were so thin though. The ball of mashed potatoes was dry and might have been artificial. The asparagus was good. The other people in our party like their meals, which was shrimp alfredo or something. Pretty cool place with interesting decor! Lots of TV's which was great for watching football! Overall, it was a decent experience."

"A KANSAS CITY MUST TRY EXPERIENCE! 5 STAR! This is a go to date night place for my husband and I. We've brought so many people here and recommend it to any one traveling to KC. Nothing but great service, food and atmosphere every time. It's hard to choose what to order because everything is absolutely delicious. Our favorite dishes are the Ahi Tuna Nachos, Spicy Cajun Chicken Pasta and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. The drinks are one of a kind too. My husband loves the old fashioned whiskeys from the Scarlet Room and I love Palauxma mocktails. The Scarlet Room has a "speak easy" feel, with the dim lighting and deep red velvet seating. The main area is more of an open, fun, high energy "night out on the town feel". Really perfect for any occasion."

"We had a reservation for 9 people, so we had to call in to make the reservation- the "owner" said we could early to have a drink at the Scarlet Room prior to dinner @7:30. We get there and Scarlet Room is closed; it opens at 10pm. Service was not great but they may just be short staffed. It took nearly 30mins for our drinks, over an hour to get our food. The food was horrendous. We came here for Restaurant Week and we're excited to try a lot of things. Everything was absolutely horrible. Steaks were thin and overcooked, Mashed potatoes were box mix with raw garlic, lava cakes dinner have ice cream, the "cilantro lime rice" was just white rice with corn & sour cream on top, and drinks were super syrupy. They ran out of other dessert items and no one told us until we hadn't been served for +30 minutes and had to track someone down to see where our desserts were. One person didn't get her entree until others got their dessert. In all we spent THREE HOURS there. Pictured is the espresso martini flight (gross also, they're just black flavored coffee & vodka) and the ribeye dinner. I would never recommend this place for food. The waitress did comp our desserts but we had to pay for all of the other inedible food."

"It was my 1st time at Society and it was a great time. I enjoyed everything. The holiday decor was wonderful, our server ( lady in pink Santa sweater) was amazing, and the food and drinks were delicious!"

"First time to visit and pleasantly surprised. Stopped by craving a sweet dessert and Society met my craving with the lava cake topped with ice cream and whipped topping. Enjoyed a burger, seasoned fries, onion rings, the pepper jack cheese bites are spiced with ghost pepper so be prepared for a little heat on those. The staff took great care of us, very friendly, great service. Love the lighting and the whole vibe here. Creative touches all around."
