HomeGrown Kansas City - Power & Light — Restaurant in Kansas City

5 Stars – Brunch So Good I Considered Moving In

Listen, I don’t want to be dramatic, but HomeGrown KC – Power & Light may have just changed my life.

Let’s start with the biscuits and gravy — fluffy, buttery, smothered in a glorious gravy that I suspect was made by a Southern grandma with magical powers. I nearly wept. Then the avocado toast hit the table, and I had to remind myself I’m not famous or rich enough to have two personal chefs… but it tasted like I do.

Now, the cherry French toast? That wasn’t breakfast. That was dessert wearing a pancake costume trying to sneak into brunch like it didn’t know better. Honestly, it should be illegal not to serve that with a firework finale.

Only thing missing? An endless mimosa option. I’m not saying I need bottomless bubbles to achieve full brunch nirvana, but I wouldn’t say no. Still, I’ll forgive them because the Light District service was sparkling, and so was my mood the entire time.

TL;DR: 11/10, would abandon my current life and start anew here with nothing but a fork and high...

Visited their new location after reviewing their Brookside location now that they have expanded their locations lets see if their signature dishes are made the same.

My fav past rated 10/10 cinnamon swirl French toast.

Unfortunately they didn't bring out the home made caramel syrup that i loved the last time this time they brought out some strawberries still amazing but dropped to a 7.5/10.

Tried their seasonal chili offered as a full breakfast or ala cart. I got the alacart version 8.5/10 but after adding that hot sauce 10/10.

Tried the build your own breakfast rosemary potatoes pretty good. Sausage patty's horrible, eggs super tasty and English muffins meh... overall the dish was a 4/10 and ended up getting comped as the manager overheard my video and said the sausage have been getting a ton of complaints especially the patty's.

Hope that keeps you away from the patty's.

Coffee was great too check...

i love love this place, all locations. The atmosphere is great, it’s a super cute restaurant and the staff is super friendly. the food is so so good and you can feel the difference in the ingredients they use. everything is from local farms and businesses and i love that. the strawberry lemonade is 10/10. i get biscuits and gravy and it kills every time, the breakfast potatoes are some of the best i’ve had. I’ve tried the pancakes and french toast as well and they are amazing. If you like fluffy french toast i would avoid getting the croissant french toast, it’s more of a squished/flat croissant experience (pictured at the top of the last pic) update: plss try the salsa verde and...
