Joe's KC BBQ

We came here for a birthday dinner. We had been to all the usual suspects for italian in the city so we were really looking for a new place... the best of the best! And I'm happy to report that we've found it! RUN, don't walk, to Ragazza!!! Italian-approved from all my friends who recommended it. Our server was Scott and he was also the reason for our 5 stars. He's such a gem! We started with the Burrata and homemade foccacia with homemade butter. Foccacia is a must try! My son ordered the carbonara and said it was hands down the best pasta he's ever eaten! Portions were giant (see my pics). Based on reviews, I had to order their porkchop with augratin potatoes and broccolini. This was literally the size of my entire hand, and the potatoes were the size of a giant piece of lasagna! 3 meals came from this and it was absolutely cooked to perfection like a perfect steak almost. Then we ordered lasagna and meatballs to sample. Best meatballs in the city, without a doubt and the lasagna is amazing also! It was hopping on a Tuesday night so make reservations. Parking in the back. 10/10 we'll be back so thank you for a fabulous dining experience!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ragazza is an absolute Kansas City treasure! From the moment we walked in, Shelly greeted us like long-lost friends — decked out in her KC Chiefs outfit and absolutely owning the room with personality. 🏈✨ Talk about setting the vibe! The food? Over. The. Top. Their Sunday Sauce (which, spoiler alert, they serve every day) is the kind of red sauce that could start family feuds… because once you’ve had it, you’ll compare every other sauce to it forever. I’m officially hooked. 🍝❤️ The service was flawless, the atmosphere warm and classy without being stuffy, and the flavors… let’s just say if you don’t order something with their red sauce, you might be doing life wrong. Here’s the deal: skip Ragazza, and you’ll be doomed to a lifetime of pasta regret. Go — and you’ll wonder why you didn’t sooner. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you.

Our dinner was fantastic! Addie was our server and she was simply marvelous, beat us to the punch on everything we needed! The hostess was awaiting us when we arrived it seemed, which was also lovely! Food was very timely and the service from all around staff was great considering it seemed to be a busier evening! (A little loud for a smaller dining room) We will absolutly be coming back again!
