A word from Aixois French Restaurant & Coffee Bar

This award winning casual French Bistro is located in charming Brookside on the picturesque trolley trail. Chef Emmanuel, originally from Aix-en-Provence, brings his simple Southern French homestyle cooking to Kansas City. If a bistro could stake its claim on one dish, Aixois" would be the Ruby Red… Trout meuniere. The romantic spot is also home to the city's most delicious and authentic pommes frites! Voted Best French Restaurant in KC 2010!Continued

"Overall, my experience was good. I was just a bit disappointed that the side item on my $24 steak was French fries. I expected a nicer side dish."

"The food was quite good ... that which was available, at least. There were no mussels, no duck, ... The hangar steak was well presented, with a rich sauce; the frites classically done, if a bit tepid on arrival; the pork nicely done; the dessert pastry with berries just right for sharing.
Atmosphere ... well, perhaps it is better when the outdoor area is open. The dining room was beyond the "energetic" option offered above, and more into the area of "din". Conversation was difficult, even seated romantically side-by-side. Climate control? - a cold wind blew over us and our food the entire time, reminiscent more of a cheaply-equipped Pizza Hut than a bistro.
Bottom line: the food was great, the service okay, the ambiance overstated"

"Very expensive and unbearably loud sports bar that happens to serve French food. Avoid unless you are a sucker that enjoys paying $100 for a $20 experience."
