Our server, Matthew was very good and the food was very good. We were seated in a high traffic area and I should have asked to move before we were seated.

About the restaurant

A Taste of Argentina well served...

For reservations please visit us at www.piroposkc.com or call 816-741-3600

The taste of Argentina is very American Midwestern. The foods of its capital city, Buenos Aires, are steaks, grilled meats, seafood, fresh salads and vegetables. Argentineans enjoy dining in a generally relaxed atmosphere where conversation and gracious dining go hand-in-hand. Piropos Restaurant, on the hill in Briarcliff Village, offers a unique view, warm atmosphere and fresh foods prepared in the Argentinean style. ***PLEASE NOTE: WHEN MAKING RESERVATIONS PIROPOS CANNOT RESERVE WINDOW TABLES. THEY MAY BE REQUESTED UPON ARRIVAL, BUT CANNOT BE GUARANTEED. Thank you.

Piropos is a true Kansas City gem! There is a good reason Travis K wanted to bring Taylor S here on a special date. The atmosphere is great; fun, interesting, uniquely classy but comfortable; the wonderful and charming owner's special touch is seen everywhere! The food is always fresh and outstanding quality, from salads to sauces to seafood/fish and beyond! The service lines up as great as food and ambiance. PIROPOS is great as both a special date night in their dining room with amazing views of the downtown KCMO skyline, or the friendly bar with the "everybody knows your name " feel. Don't miss this wonderful dining experience!!!

I have been taking different groups of friends to Prime Social because it is one of my fave places for a happy hour. The food is innovative and beautifully presented in a reasonable amount of time. Great ambience, energetic and fun. Lovely decor, Julia, our waitress, was charming and efficient. Always a good time at PS!

The restaurant was fairly empty at the time that we dine there. The staff was fantastic and the food was good for the price Great location on the river to go and check out the Berkeley Riverfront Plaza. The restaurant is attached to the hotel, but didn’t detract from visiting. Looking forward to the beer garden opening!
