My husband and I had such a great experience here tonight. Sarah was amazing and understood food allergies so well. There was no dedicated gluten free menu but they were able to accommodate me and make adjustments to things if needed. The woman at the table next to me also had a different type of food allergy and from what I heard they were very accommodating to hers as well. Everything was so delicious and cooked to perfection. This is our new favorite restaurant in Parkville. We will definitely be telling our friends about this place and we will definitely be back!!

Went out for anniversary dinner. Nice intimate setting after a pleasant walk around downtown Parkville. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful.
Dinner was as good as advertised. We started with the snails; delicious and meaty. My wife had the scallops, which were prepared with a delicious bacon bourbon jam. I had the Lamb and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly.
Ended our evening with probably the best Crème Brûlée we’ve ever had.
Service was excellent. Atmosphere was just what we were looking for and the food was all we had hoped for. Would highly recommend you to take the time to take advantage of this genuine dining experience up North.

Cafe Des Amis is a charming gem of a restaurant tucked into historic downtown Parkville. The restaurant is rich in character and history. It has a cozy, intimate interior. The service was warm and attentive, but not overly attentive if you know what I mean.
The food? Absolutely delicious. Each dish is thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor, making it easy to see why this spot has such a loyal following. The covered patio offers a lovely dining experience perfect for a relaxing evening with friends or a romantic night out. Even on a hot night I would have enjoyed the patio.
Their wine selection is impressively robust, with options to suit any palate. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Cafe Des Amis is well worth the stop. A true Parkville treasure!
The only caution I have is with the open flame candle… I’ve heard a story or two of a break basket catching fire.

Though we had exceptional service and the atmosphere was great, the food lacked luster. Unrefined French food at best. The pate was gritty and way too cold with no crusty bread accompaniment. The tomatoes, though a pallet cleaner, were unnecessary and seemed like an afterthought. Our mains; pork cheek and scallops, were a uniquely low point. The pork dish was rich, which I expected, but had no acid or texture to break-up the dish. It was dauntingly heavy. The scallops weren’t cleaned and had the abductor muscles still attached. The dish was also heavy and needed acid as well to break everything up and bring it together. It just tasted of salt, butter, and scallop. The drinks were delightful and shined through the meal along with the bread. Overall a gem to find in a small city, it was a gem confused on its food facet on the plate.

The experience is truly what wins the cake here.
We started with their special soup a butternut squash with what I believe was maple and maybe brown sugar. It reminded me of the holidays: comforting, warm, and absolutely delicious.
Our second appetizer was the Ris de Veau. I wanted to expand my palate… and unfortunately, that was not my best idea. I’m not picky at all, but this dish just wasn’t for me and ours was slightly undercooked. That said, our server handled it wonderfully, had it sent back immediately, and removed it from our bill with no hesitation. The service alone deserves recognition.
For our main dishes, everything was solid. I ordered the porc and was especially excited about the port and cranberry reduction and it absolutely delivered. So flavorful and rich. The sautéed sweet potatoes were good, but the real surprise was the braised cipollini onions. I never thought I’d crave eating an onion by itself… yet here we are. Lol.
My husband ordered the Truite. The flavor was great, but the temperature was a bit off. It wasn’t undercooked or overcooked it just wasn’t warm. He still finished it, and I tried it as well. We both loved the creamy parmesan risotto that came with it.
This is the perfect place for romance. It’s unique, intimate, and the ambiance is something you truly have to experience for yourself.

I searched for creme brulee, and found an absolute treasure! In town for one night only and thought I’d look for a place with my wife’s favorite dessert. Cafe des Amis popped up and showed great promise. Was a bit of a drive from far West KC, but definitely worth it. The best overall dining experience I have had in a very long time! Immediately welcomed with a huge smile and taken to our reserved patio table. Service was relaxed, but efficient when needed. Both the server and busser were very friendly and very knowledgeable. The wine list was an actual book with detailed descriptions of their very large selection. The menu was simple, in the best way, and we decided to go “all out” and order quite a few different things. Everything from the herbed butter right down to the mini macarons was incredible. Escargot, burrata salad, beef filet, lamb chops, soufflé, and of course creme brulee were all expertly prepared glorious tributes to culinary achievement. The beautiful setting and slight breeze just topped our date night. Make a reservation and treat yourself immediately! We are already talking about making a weekend getaway trip to come back.

I wish I knew of this place sooner, but now that I do, we will definitely be back! Food was so flavorful and well prepared. Service was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is nice as well… we sat on the patio. Recommend the trout and the pork. The vegetables that are served with the entrees are so delicious. Highly recommend.

What a hidden jewel!! We are so happy to have found Cafe Des Amis. Yes it’s just as good as it looks! This was our second time back and and it definitely will not be our last. Such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. We enjoy sitting at the bar so we can visit with the owner Guillaume who most assume is just a French waiter. Thanks again for wonderful food and service!

Wow!!!!! This place is awesome. The staff was very helpful, energetic, and very professional. This was only half of a great dining experience for the whole family. We showed up with no reservation and were seated at the bar and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everyone was more than excited as each plate came out. The mussels were extraordinary, and the wine and meal were top-notch. Highly recommend this restaurant.
