A word from Gram & Dun
Gram & Dun is an American gastropub with culinarily-driven fare, paying special attention to pairing food with libations. It's a place "for the people" where we can relax and enjoy the neighborhood vibe while we test theories of food, drink and the evolution of good times. People need a place that… calls to them when they find the time to relax, shrug off the day, and savor a meal that's unique and extraordinary; a place where they feel they belong. Our local owners and staff bring a unique, modern environment to this ideal Plaza location where we have revived the best patio in town, making Gram & Dun an enticing landmark for locals and visitors alike. In addition, Gram & Dun honors the traditional by bringing revered dishes to the forefront and adding our own special touch, and welcomes seasonality by adjusting to the natural changes our tastes succumb to as the year progresses, all in an effort to provide the best to patrons.

    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Upon waiting at the bar for 1/2 an hour, I was told by the hostess they take reservations but that is not a promise of a seat. When I questioned why they were on open table for reservations, they became rude & defensive!"
    Dined on 3/10/2014
  • "Great restaurant!!!!! Love the brunch, the coffee was to die for not to mention the food was amazing!"
    Dined on 3/9/2014
  • "The food was delicious and they were very accomodating as the size of our party fluctuated."
    Dined on 3/6/2014
  • "We tried most of the entrees in our group and we loved every one. The pork wings (starter) are incredible."
    Dined on 3/6/2014
  • "Thoroughly enjoyed the food and was impressed by the superior service. But we had trouble hearing each other talking over the piped-in music."
    Dined on 3/7/2014
  • "We were disappointed in our Gram & Dun experience. Their website suggests a charming, romantic atmosphere and classy dining. This was not the case. We actually had a reservation and still waited nearly 20 minutes for a table, because "some of our other parties stayed longer than we thought they would." (What was the point of a reservation?!) Our server insisted that our menu was comprised of comfort food, but most of the dishes are very pretentious on the actual menu. The food was good, but we had to shout to hear each other throughout the meal, the place was full of hipsters and older people who try too hard to look cool and there was loud techno music. G&D could probably charge 2x as much if they changed their atmosphere and music."

  • "I host my nieces and nephews to dinner once a month. We did a brunch at Gram and Dunn on sunday, in the midst of a snow storm. Seven of us. Great food, great service,beautiful view of the snow, Brush Creek, the flame pits/heaters on the patio. Perfect."
    Dined on 3/2/2014
  • "Took my dad there for his birthday. It was a first time for all of us. We were seated right away, and had cold water poured immediately. Our waiter was outstanding!! He was extrememly knowledgeable about everything on the menu, and was also able to joke around with us and make our experience fun and exciting. Although they were out of the 1 thing that I wanted (very popular item), the tenderloin they brought me was absolutely perfect! amazing flavor and cooked exactly how I wanted it. In fact, my mom, dad, and wife all got the tenderloin and theirs were all the best they had ever eaten as well! Couldn't be happier with the food and the experience."
    Dined on 3/1/2014
  • "We eat here at least every other month. Food is always amazing. So many wonderful items on the menu. Have never had a bad experience at Gram and Dun! Twice this winter we have been here while it's been snowing outside. Such a gorgeous view to watch the snow fall on the beautifully lit patio while the fire pits roar."
    Dined on 3/1/2014
  • "Always a great experience at Gram and Dun. A different twist on comfort food is always interesting. Do what you can to save room for dessert (crack pie or the Gram and Dunn Bar)."
    Dined on 2/25/2014
  • "First time here but will definitely go again-- Lots of energy unusual food offerings not your typical Kansas City restaurant for sure- Han the mussels & Jackson salad perfect combination if you want an " light" meal-- Chicken & Waffles was the hit at our table who would think of pairing those two ingredients-- just melt in your mouth yummy!!"
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "The Smoking Dun is the best cocktail in the city. Hands down!"
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "the most inventive food--always walk away satisfied"
    Dined on 2/26/2014
  • "They didn't do anything for my husbands birthday. And when they picked up my husbands empty beer glass it took the server 3 more times of coming to our table to ask if we wanted another drink. It was very disappointing."
    Dined on 2/25/2014
  • "The menu sounds wonderful, but the food is not well prepared. The ham in the pasta was tasteless.and the flash fried peppers were bitter.This was our second visit to this restaurant and both times we were disappointed in the food.LR"
    Dined on 2/24/2014
  • "The menu items lean toward what I'd describe as Southern/Country cooking but there were a few exceptions-the Cioppino was enjoyable (only the shrimp was over-cooked the other components quite good). The wine lest isn't extremely extensive but is well chosen. Service was friendly if a bit slow, even with only about 50% of the tables occupied. It's rather loud considering the number of diners on this occasion."
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "My husband and I love Gram & Dun. It is original and has a delicious and playful menu from brunch>happy hour>dinner. The atmosphere is beautifully understates with light and dark greys offset with muted yellow and birch sprigs in large vases. Best patio in Kansas City- gorgeous and location, location, location. Food is consistently good -- as is service. We definitely recommend Gram & Dun. PS: Definitely try the monkey bread at breakfast!"
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "The locale is very romantic and the food is just amazing!"
    Dined on 2/19/2014
  • "I love everything about Gram and Dun. A perfect place for a date night, and a fun place to gather with friends. The food is like nothing I've had before. I don't think there is one thing on the menu that I wouldn't enjoy. The shrimp and grits are my go-to item, but everything I have tried off of other's plates have not let me down."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Menu was full of good looking options and most had a unique twist. Burnt end mac and cheese was delicious as were the duck fat fries. Mixed drinks were also top notch. View on to the patio with the gas fire was nice. Would love to come back again."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "My girlfriend and I recently had brunch at this restaurant and I have to say, the food was amazing. Very unique tastes and LOTS of food for a reasonable price. Great service, great atmosphere, an all-around good time. I highly recommend this place to anyone for brunch and I'm looking forward to trying out their dinner menu."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Gram & Dun is innovative, local, and just all-around yummy. I contemplated ordering a second main course because I just couldn't decide and it was all so delicious. It is a great concept restaurant and they have pulled it off to a T. GREAT JOB!"

  • "We had a lovely time at Gram & Dun. Food was delicious. I highly recommend the French Onion gruyere puffs. They were fantastic. The service wasn't awesome, but I think maybe it was an off night."
    Dined on 2/8/2014
  • "The food and service were superb. Even though it was too cold to eat outdoors we dined outdoors on a previous occasion and it is very nice. Great place to "people watch.""
    Dined on 2/13/2014
  • "Food was excellent; service was average - the waiter had too many tables. I had the goat cheese and citrus salad, which was beautifully presented and had an excellent pairing of flavors. The Jerk Shrimp & Grits entree was also very good; the grits had a lot extra ingredients mixed in and had great flavor. My friend ordered the Chicken & Waffles and also enjoyed it - the chicken was a little spicy."
    Dined on 2/10/2014
  • "Love, love, love Gram & Dun. Try the asian pig wings. Or anything else on the menu!"
    Dined on 9/5/2013
  • "Always great food and service. Love how the restaurant looks and feels. It is always loud, but for me it is part of the fun."
    Dined on 1/31/2014
  • "I know that the Plaza has a lot of restaurants that some consider "too fancy" for most folks. Gram and Dun while having an atmosphere of elegance, was reasonably priced and has a fresh food menu that is varied and delicious. This was my first time at Gram and Dun but I will return. Very professional staff and the fun food was delicious. My date had "burnt ends mac and cheese". This sounds out of the ordinary, but it was a fun twist to two foods that she preferred. The combonation was tasty. I myself had the porterhouse pork. Very tender and flavorfully paired with grits that were my favorite thing on the plate.Give them a try if you haven't been"
    Dined on 1/31/2014
  • "Gram & Dun is great for any occasion, and any time of day. I had only dined, or just enjoyed drinks and appetizers here until the other day... I went for lunch and it was of course... absolutely amazing! This place has an impeccable location, fantastic menu, extensive drink options, and holds a uniquely professional and energetic atmosphere. I have never had anything less that a truly wonderful experience at this restaurant. Bring on summer... I'm ready for patio time!"
    Dined on 1/30/2014
  • "Very enjoyable! Since I came in a little before four, they gave me the choice between lunch and dinner. I picked dinner, with the sweet salad, pork porterhouse, and orange dreamsicle. The porterhouse was big and flavorful, the smoked grits were tasty, and the caramel corn was unexpected. Yeah, it was right there in the menu, but I didn't expect actual caramel corn. It made a nice addition. The salad was good, but could have used a bit more dressing. The dessert was fantastic, I loved how the sorbet and ice cream interacted with the cake. The place was impressive, I couldn't keep my eyes off the flames out on the patio, and the check holder was a nice touch. I even read some of it. All in all, a great place I plan on returning to!"
    Dined on 1/25/2014
  • "Gram & Dun is not your "run of the mill" restaurant . The menu is very diverse. We had the shrimp and grits which was excellent. The service was wonderful. A great place to relax and unwind and enjoy a delicious meal."
    Dined on 1/26/2014
  • "Great place! Take the server's advice - I didn't but fiance did and her meal was fantastic. Not to say mine wasn't great as well, though."
    Dined on 1/26/2014
  • "This place was stellar. Their drinks are unique and delicious! Try the SeaDog Blueberry Wheat! The food was incredibly yummy, however it took about 25-30 minutes to come out. BUT they comp'd our meal for the inconvenience!! You HAVE to get the dessert there as well. We got the crack pie, and I'm addicted now. This place is a must try! A beautiful sunday afternoon here is well spent on the Gram and Dun patio!"
    Dined on 1/26/2014
  • "What a wonderful restaurant! We had a fabulous time during restaurant week. Such a great time, that we will definitely return again. The food was fabulous and interesting. Our wait staff was always attentive, entertaining and knowledgeable."
