Editorial Review for Golden Ox Restaurant and Lounge – by Jane Berkowitz

In Short
For more than 55 years, "The Ox" has catered to beef-eaters from its home in Kansas City's historic livestock yards. Steady and reliable service is second only to the high quality of the beef and attention to proper preparation. All steaks are aged and cut on the premises, then broiled over a hickory charcoal flame for taste and aroma. Among the top sellers are well-marbled K.C. strip steak and melt-like-butter filet mignons.

First if you put A1 onyour steak.. this isnt for you 2nd if you like your steak over medium rare.... this isnt for you 3rd if you like any other crud shoved on or in your steak this isnt for you. With that said, this place has great steaks. I have lived in Kansas since birth, and i have been to every steak joint in town. This place hands down the best steak house I have ever eaten. I got a job downtown and go 2 times a week to get the luncheon steak (filet, side, breads, and salad) for 8$. The history is great, and the staff gets 50% tip because they are fast as lightening and very nice. This is steak the way its supposed to be cooked, not over flavored, or marinaded, just good old fashion meat, and the only place i can get a Rare steak anymore.

Pros: Great steaks, great service

Cons: In a old part of kc, kemper arena is close (lol)

We took friends from out of town there and while nothing was wrong with our meal it seemed mediocre at best. I wasn't particularly impressed by the steak. While not bad it wasn't anything spectacular. This would be a great restaraunt to stop at if you allready planned on being in the area. It is right next door to Kemper arena.
