Welcome to the Crossroads, where Kansas City comes together. An evening at Lazia begins at the hearth with a complimentary house amaro blend as the sound of hip hop's greatest legends fill the room. The menu is both familiar and surprising in its selection of Italian favorites. It offers a collection of Cicchetti and Antipasti to start your meal; an expertly prepared and seasonal selection of handmade, fresh pastas; a satisfying collection of Secondi; and few moments of surprise & delight!

Named for another Crossroads O.G. and pal of Pendergast, Johnny Lazia, our dinner-only restaurant sits at the Crossroads of Italian culinary inspiration and the farms and fields of the Heartland in the Midwest.

We are currently open 7 days a week from 5:00pm - 10:00pm
Valet Parking for Lazia guests is $9, but street parking is also available.

Lazia is happy to accommodate most dietary restrictions.

    They made a special mocktail for me, and had to get the recipe from the hotel bar.

    Debbie was incredible. She brings a very comfy, personable vibe to the table without detracting from the higher end approach and atmosphere. That isn't easy to do. Don't know his name, but the red beard who delivered the bulk of our food did a great job describing the food and was a notable addition to the experience. One minor quibble with the food was the salt level. It could be dialed back considerably. This was agreed by all 4 members of our party. It didn't ruin our overall experience. The plating and presentations were all great. The carpaccio and scampi pasta were highlights. Overall a lovely meal, great atmosphere, and kind, attentive service from all involved.

    We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review, Scott! It's great to hear that our staff did such an excellent job taking care of you during your visit. Debbie and Stu are some of the best! While it sounds like you enjoyed your meal, we will address the salt concern with our culinary team. We are always working to fine tune all aspects of the Lazia experience. We hope to see you again soon!

    We had the most incredible experience at Lazia last night! My fiancé and I went there to celebrate our engagement, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone—elegant, warm, and intimate. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel special, offering congratulations and impeccable service throughout the evening.

    What a beautiful restaurant and the food was amazing from start to finish. We were in town to go to The Nutcracker Ballet and our waitress asked us what time our show was so she could make sure to have our dinner completed in time. Superb food and customer service! We will return!!
    LaziaResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for taking time to leave us such a glowing review! We love having guests before (or after) the Nutcracker and it's great to hear the service staff and culinary team were able to wow you and get you to your show on time!

    We have loved every single visit to Lazia and this one was no different. The menu offers a balance of adventurous bites and Italian traditions, but all are equally delicious. The service here can’t be matched by any other KC restaurant—wait staff remembers us each time, even if they’ve only personally helped us once before, and continues to be the friendliest staff we’ve ever met. They go out of their way to celebrate special occasions and make a regular visit more special. You can’t go wrong with a reservation here.
    LaziaResponded on December 8, 2024
    Thank you for sharing such lovely feedback, Brianna! We love getting the chance to celebrate special occasions (or just regular Friday nights!) with our guests. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
