Cowboy Kitchen — Restaurant in Lee's Summit

It's so wonderful when you try a new place and it truly delivers. This place is one of those establishments. My husband and I wanted a burger and decided to try out this spot.

As soon as we walked in we were met with friendly people, great live music, a full bar and a kitchen that offered a great variety of choices. It definitely had that cowboy feel and we were excited to see what they had to offer.

The kitchen is located in the back by the pool tables. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The staff that helped us that night was Summer, Katelyn, Casey and Nick. They were ALL equally AMAZING! We ordered two Winchester 1873 smash burgers 🍔. My husband ordered cheese curds with his and I ordered onion rings. We added extra cheese and raw onion to each.

The food came out quickly and it was fresh and piping hot. I also ordered their homemade ranch to go with my onion rings and it was delicious. I thought the value, especially for this day and age, was good. We were thanked for our business and invited back. Which y'all KNOW is always a plus for me.

So sometimes life be truly lifin' and right after leaving the establishment we stopped at a gas station. While there my husband's truck began to overheat and we had to wait on our son to pick us up. Lawd have mercy 🥺. Well it was freezing cold and I immediately grabbed that hot food and devoured it. The burger meat and bacon was cooked and seasoned to utter perfection. The cheese was just oozing and the bun was soft with a nice buttery toast to it. The onion rings were EVERYTHING, fried to perfection with a nice crispy batter around them. Oh man! I was in love. Now we didn't get to savor the food in the best circumstances but it was AMAZING and because of this and just that the food and service was just that damn excellent we will be returning.

I highly recommend this spot and I'll be taking our son to get beat by him on one of the two pool tables they have. Do yourself a favor and check these folks out. I know you'll be pleasantly surprised. Tell the crew A-Team Travels said what's up while you're there. You're...

It was fantastic Top-tier service and incredibly genuine. He ran the whole place himself and still made the experience feel personal, even telling me my visit helped him reach his goal for the day. The food was amazing and came out fast, especially for a one-man operation. Prices were great too — every burger comes with a side. The only downside was the location, just a corner of a bar, but once he gets his own spot, he’s going to be unstoppable. He’s a real hard worker, and I’m excited to see what he does next.

Food The food was amazing! It came out quickly, especially impressive since he seemed to be the owner, cook, and cashier all in one.

Atmosphere The location is a bit unconventional — it’s just a corner of a bar for now. But despite that, the experience was still great. Once he gets his own place, I think he’ll be unstoppable.

Prices The prices are really good. Every burger comes with a side, which makes it an...

Cowboy Kitchen was absolutely phenomenal! The owner, Nick, was super helpful, kind and very welcoming. There was an issue with the online ordering (out of his control) and he took the time to personally call me back and take my order over the phone. We arrived and he greeted us and had our order out very quickly. Nick told us that his burger is ranked 2nd in Lee’s Summit and I think it should be ranked 1st in the overall Kansas City area. It was the best burger I’ve ever had. All the sides were 10/10 (onion rings, fried pickles and curly fries). Summer, Nick’s girlfriend and owner made the BEST homemade ranch. We cannot WAIT to return!! (Please note there were more cheese curds but I couldn’t stop eating them before I took...
