The Antler Room
Missouri
The Antler Room is a neighbourhood restaurant on Holmes Street in Kansas City, owned and run by Leslie and Nick Goellner. Its menu changes daily, drawing on seasonal ingredients and the culinary traditions of Persia, Asia and the Mediterranean. Shared plates make it possible to explore several preparations during a meal. The bar offers a smaller-bite alternative to a full dinner, with wines, regional beers and house cocktails. A private dining room upstairs accommodates groups, while the main dining area remains intimate enough that reservations are recommended. The changing menu and broad influences make the kitchen's current ingredients more significant than a fixed list of signature dishes.
