Bristol Seafood Grill


On Monday, New Year's Eve day, Dan and I met our friend Lisa at Bristol Seafood Grill for lunch. We love eating there, but it's so far from our house that we don't get there as often as we would like. The customer service there has always been great and the food is good too. I also love the interior of the restaurant, especially the beautiful stained glass dome.
On this trip, we had a very good waiter who explained the days specials. He also suggested the the crab cakes as an appetizer, boasting that their's were the best. We ordered the crab cakes ($12.50) and I have to say that they were very good. The crab was very tasty and the sauces that were served with the cakes were excellent.
For lunch, both Dan and Lisa ordered the Atlantic Salmon special ($13.95). They each ordered their salmon cooked through and it came out perfectly. It was a nice piece of fish sitting atop some pretty awesome lobster risotto with a side of asparagus. I had the Japanese Breaded Fried Shrimp ($12.95). I loved this dish, the shrimp were big and cooked to perfection. It came with a side of fries and a nice little dish of jicama slaw.
We really had a nice lunch and sat and talked for quite a while after our meal was finished. It was nice to be able to sit there and not feel rushed to leave. The Bristol is located at 5400 W. 119th Street, Leawood, KS 66209 913-663-5777.
