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 say you eat with your eyes first. Lazia, our Italian restaurant in the Arts District, together with Heidmann Art Salon, introduces Appetite for Art: A night for those who crave creativity. This evening, art will be on your plate, in the gallery, and around the table. An experience to remember. Start with a sip of amaro as you wander Lazia’s hidden gallery, where the Heidmann’s thematic collection invites you to venture into a new perspective. Then, wander the candle-lit dining room for a progressive, roaming menu that echoes the night’s theme - bold, intentional, and just a little adventurous. After grabbing a few bites and bevs, slip into a seat for cocktails and conversation with friends. With a setting this active, art sneaks into every corner of the evening. For the first edition, theme L’AVVENTURA sets the scene - an exploration of risk, discovery, and the beauty of the spontaneous. Expect the unexpected! WHAT IS INCLUDED: ✔ Exclusive entry to Appetite for Art, Lazia’s private art event, alongside the Heidmann Art Salon’s gallery, L’AVVENTURA. ✔ An all-inclusive, chef-curated stationed menu featuring highlights like Chef’s Raw Bar alongside a paired wine sampling menu and a welcome sip of amaro ✔ An evening of art, flavor, and conversation in an intimate, one-night-only setting.

    Outstanding as always - the cocktail bar outside of the restaurant has a great vibe and is a pleasant way to start the evening. We were greeted with a taste of house made Amaro. The manager was very informative (but not at all pushy, super cool) and helpful. The food was superb; wagyu carpaccio and the duck dish were particularly outstanding. This is probably the best restaurant we have been to in the metro. We will be back as soon as we can be. Book it - you’ll be glad you did!

    Service was awful. Our server wasn’t around much at all, never asked if we enjoyed anything, and was not very helpful. Another server (male) was more helpful when he delivered our main courses. The ambience looks like a distressed WWII era European dining room that had been destroyed and not properly repaired. Lighting was bad and there was either no manager or it was the girl in a jacket who slipped into the hallway to check her phone but never came by to check on our table and see how terrible the service was. We spent over $400 for four of us and were happy with the food and upset about the overall experience. Many of the dishes were good to great, but some seemed completely off the mark. The Lasagna was awesome. Foccacia was very good. Ravioli was excellent. Agnolotti was very good. Arancino was great, but not ideal for four to share (again, service was nonexistent). I wanted to like it but I didn’t and I spent over $500 between an Uber, food, tax, & tip. It wasn’t worth it.

    Debbie was an absolute doll. Exceeded every expectation. She could not have been better about gluten free options. Give Debbie a raise. She was the best! Food was great, as well.
