The Scene – The view is the marquee draw at this upscale revolving restaurant some 40 stories up in the Hyatt Regency Crown Center. Offering unparalleled panoramas of Kansas City and beyond, the eatery draws couples and groups eager for a romantic evening or sophisticated, yet unstuffy, dining experience. The interior is dimly lit and fed by soothing piano music from the nearby lounge (which is also on the revolving carousel). Modern tables--with sleek Scandinavian-looking dinnerware and glasses--lend a contemporary elegance. – – The Food – The streamlined menu doesn't…

NOT GOOD!!!

by commoditytraveler at Citysearch

Yes the atmoshphere at the Resturant inside the Hyatt is nice...will give it kudos for this, but that is were the buck stops. It took approximately 25 minutes to place our drink order and about another 15 minutes to get the drinks. We were there for 40 minutes before we even had a chance to order our food. Our server was slower than slow and they were not even busy!! i have dined at fine resturants from NY to LA and this place came highly suggested. It was such a pricy dissappointment. I had a dish that included duck, chicken, and i believe a filet. Unfortunately everything was overcooked and very dry. I asked for medium rare on the filet and it was well done and then some. When i questioned the staff they claimed they would fix the problem and the second steak came out even more cooked than the first!! The chocalate bar was interesting but not good......overall i would tell people to run, run, run...to another of the great resturants in KC!!!

  • Pros: the atmoshphere.....thats about it
  • Cons: too many to list...ie overpriced, bad food, bad service, must i go on

It has lost a little zip!

by xnykr at Citysearch

I once had Skies listed as the best place to eat in the K.C. area, but have had a change of heart as of late! The last several times we have gone, the food has been very very bland. The service has always been great, but other than cocktails and the great view of K.C., I don't think I'll be back for the food anytime soon!

At $18.00-$38.00 and entree, you should expect more.

  • Pros: Revolving restaurant, service, great drinks
  • Cons: Bland food

Very Romantic

by nat104 at Citysearch

My fiance took me here the night he proposed. The food, atmosphere and service were wonderful. The duck was mouth watering and the chocolate bar was divine. We will definitely be visiting the Peppercorn for years to come!

  • Pros: Attentive Service, Delicious Food, Romantic Atmosphere

Service please???

by jflinder at Citysearch

The service left something to be desired here. It took our server about 10 minutes to even GREET US, and another 15 to bring WATER, let alone our wine. We spent $2000.00 on dinner here with a group of 8 of us, and just expected more. The steak was cooked incorrectly, the server was brash and abrasive and obviously didn't want to be there, and we just felt like we were treated terribly for someplace that has such a stellar reputation. I will NOT go back, ever. Nor will any of my mates who dined with me that evening. A chunk of change wasted on a lackluster event.

  • Pros: view
  • Cons: service, food, price
