Great little local specialty sandwich shop. Set up for cash sales and to go orders. Not dine in. That said their pork tenderloin Sandwich is great! Very popular locally and has a great reputation that is well deserved. What makes their tenderloin sandwich special is: The bread is very fresh and good with a little bit of a crispy outside.,The tenderloin on it is pounded thin and tender with a very crispy breading, and then there’s a mixture of mayonnaise and onion slices that come alive with each bite against the salty crispy pork.. Great sandwich that will fill the stomach. Definitely recommend kitty’s café.

Fantastic pork tenderloin sandwich. Great batter that had the perfect crunch without being dry or greasy. It is outside seating only (though there is a roof) so go on a nice day.
I got excited abd had already taken several bites of the sandwich before I remembered to take a picture, so it’s a little squished

Damn good. I enjoyed the pork tenderloin sandwich and the tots! They were both hot and fresh! That tenderloin sandwich. The batter each cutlet is fried in is light and crispy! I should have added cheese.
The service was good. My only gripe is how they only take cash, but “if it ain’t broke, dont fix it,” I suppose.
The spot is super small inside. There’s outdoor seating if you have time to hang out. I’ll definitely be back for sure!

Amazing tenderloin sandwich, crispy and delightful crinkle cut fries, their burgers are excellent as well. Cash only though, and be prepared for outdoor seating and a 10-20 minute wait!

Absolutely delicious. You would be shorting yourself if you didn’t at least try this place. Haven’t had it in a while, my husband grabbed it and by the time I got it, it was cold. The tater tots are STILL crispy. The sandwich isn’t soggy at all. Amazing. Even better when hot

I read about this place on atlas obscura and was surprised its been around since the 50s and my in-laws who live in KCK have never heard of it.
We went on a Friday around lunchtime and it was pretty busy. My fiance wanted to try the cheeseburger and I had to have the famed pork tenderloin sandwich. The wait was about 30 minutes and it is CASH ONLY so as long as you’re prepared, neither is an issue.
The pork tenderloin sandwich and the hot sauce on it were great and I’d love to have another. The cheeseburger wasn’t bad but seemed pretty similar to Sonic or a run of the mill fast food cheeseburger. I had to have a mexican coke with it and it made for the perfect combo.
Overall, a good visit.

I remember hearing about this place years ago but never went. It popped up on my FYP on TikTok so I decided to give it a try. My family and I drove down on a Saturday around 12:30. Not sure where it was exactly, we ended up driving by it and having to turn around. There is only street parking available so we parked 1/2 a block up and walked down. We weren’t the only ones who did. The steady flow of people coming in and out was a lot. Good for business. They only accept cash, which is good to know beforehand. We ordered the famous pork tenderloin, a cheeseburger and fries. Everything is alacarte. Which is also good to know beforehand.
The tenderloin had good flavor but was fried very hard. My husband enjoyed his but said it was too spicy, he had the hot sauce. Overall, it was good. Glad we finally tried it.

This place has served me well since the year 2000 when I first discovered it near my place of employment at the time. That was 25 YEARS AGO and it has never let me down and the consistent quality of the food has never changed over the years. Most people complain that it’s a cash only restaurant but that’s mainly from the people who come from out of town or it’s their first time going to Kitty’s. So… bring cash, the food is to die for and even if there is a long line to order you will still get your food within 15 minutes of ordering it! Come one, come all! This is one of the tastiest and most affordable places to eat in all of KCMO!!!

My college roommate and I have lunch every Friday at a different KC restaurant. Kitty’s Cafe has been on our list to try for several months, but since there was no indoor seating we’ve been waiting for the temperatures to drop. So today we went and it was a great experience. And I don’t give many 5-star ratings.
My friend and I split a tenderloin and a double cheeseburger. I love the way they stack the tenderloin pieces rather than serving a tenderloin that’s four times the size of the bun. The hot sauce is a great addition. The double cheeseburger was delicious. Good fries. Unfortunately, they were out of tots today. The outdoor seating was simple – a patio covered by a portable carport – but enjoyable.
