Ive read on social media that most people either love jaspers or dislike it- with not a lot of in between. We had a good time, but my parents used to own an Italian restaurant and I am quite picky. Best thing was the tiramisu- probably best I've had. I asked the deli next door if they sell it and they do for $6 each so if I need a fix I can get it there. Our waitress was prompt and nice. They definitely have a lot of regulars because you can hear them talking to owners or servers like family. Jasper qnd his brother walk around talking to every table. I think that's how they have such a great following- they make everyone feel like family. We got two cocktails. I didn't like mine and they made it into a spritzer and I still didn't like it but I didn't want to be annoying and just drank it. We shared two entrees. The house salad was delicious- but was kind of deceiving to ask if we want blue cheese and then for both that was an extra $4.50! The veal piccata was OK. Definitely not that great. Green beans with it were fine- they tasted like they might be frozen? Then we got the special and honestly I cannot remember the name but it had peas and prosciutto and cream sauce. My husband tasted it and was like the noodles are crunchy. He's not one to ever complain at all restaurant, so I tasted them and I was like yeah that's not al dente that's just plain undercooked pasta. We told our server and they sent another out that was cooked perfectly. The sauce was perfect. I am VERY picky about cream sauce and it was perfect. I would probably order that if I came again. Our server offered us dessert on the house because of the undercooked pasta trouble and that was nice. The ambiance is amazing, it looks very a fancy. I like how it was a half circle booth so we could sit next to each other. I just wasn't blown away by the food, and for 5 stars I need to be like wow this is awesome. It was alright, and would maybe bring someone here who wanted Italian, but it's not a top choice with all of the restaurants choices in KC.

Jaspers restaurant has been my favorite place to be since I was a child. The food is just like my family's, authentic and delicious! You could not ask for better service. Everyone from the chef to the hostess pays attention to detail to ensure quality for customers and a wonderful overall experience.

This legendary place serves up some of the best Italian fare in the Midwest. Chef Jasper Mirabile and his crew have curated his folks authentic Sicilian recipes from the 40s and 50s and given each of 'em their own culinary spin. From the minute you walk in, it's like being immersed in a big ol' Italian family. The vibes are comforting and inviting and the food is flavorful and filling. Hands-down, his famed shrimp livornese is the best thing on the menu. I could bathe in that sauce. But his award-winning lobster bisque is a close second. (Fun fact: Chef Jasper is one of only a handful of restaurants in the country that also feature Shrimp DeJonghe. But ... shhh ... it's only on Jasper's secret menu and only available if he's there.) If you don't save room for his homemade desserts, well ... that's on you. His dessert cart is almost as famous as he is. (Get the coconut cake. Full stop.) The thing I love best about this place is the sheer tradition and spectacle of Jasper's. I've been going here (and raving about this restaurant) for decades. Jasper never ceases to amaze me with his hospitality and graciousness. It's a Kansas City staple ... and we're lucky to have him.

Went to Jaspers with a friend. We got the burrata for an app and it was delicious. It came with a fig jam and some greens. I had the Tortellini Romano and it was very delicious. I would get it again. The server was kind and attentive.

Jasper's is one of my favorite Italian places in the area. I got the fettuccini alfredo and my mom got the Scampi Livornese. The service was wonderful and our server was very patient and helpful. The ambiance is always lovely and I can't wait to come back!!
