Hereford House in Kansas City is a two star American restaurant. Located in the Westport area, this restaurant is expensive. It's known for its steak. Upon entering the restaurant, you'll find a romantic atmosphere. This restaurant features catering and lunch. This restaurant is handicap accessible and good for groups.
I was in Kansas City this past weekend and someone suggested I go to Hereford House for steak. I'm glad that I did. The food was great. Prices weren't too bad. Service was great.

Hereford House has wonderful steaks (try them with the Bearnaise sauce) and excellent cedar plank salmon. It is hard to beat this place!
