Reads like an advertisement, and violates both the spirit and the letter of Wikipedia. Fails WP:ORG. No notability whatsoever. scope_creep 19:32, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

KEEP, Notability is referenced in the article by the numerous awards from well known publications such as Playboy, USA Today, Esquire, etc BlueGold73 (talk) 22:52, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Delete I did a news and book search and was frankly surprised to find no newspaper or significant book mentions for a restaurant reportedly in existence since 1938. The fact that it exists, even for 75 years, does not in and of itself make a restaurant notable. Not every restaurant is necessarily notable in terms of its encyclopedic value, however excellent its food or service. I must agree with nom that this article fails WP:ORG and WP:NOTE.

 * In addition to the news and magazine articles cited in the article, a quick search even reveals more than one appearance in New York Times articles, so there are definitely plenty of mentions outside of the Kansas City area, including the New York Times, Playboy, Esquire, and Travel + Leisure. How does that fail WP:ORG and WP:NOTE? BlueGold73 (talk) 05:13, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
