| Comments: | It is always a pleasure to dine at Jasper's. Lenoard, Jasper
Jr. and Sal are always moving through the dining room to make sure you are taken care of and most welcome. Jasper Jr, the chef is noted for his specials and he will (if they are not extremely busy) cook something not on the menu if it is a favorite dish of yours. I love to go there and will always reccommend them. One of the truly great Kansas City
Restaurants. |

| Comments: | Jasper's was the biggest surprise I've experienced in quite a while! I'm from out of town, no stranger to authentic Italian food. You could tell the freshness of all of the ingredients in every dish. The veal of the Osso Bucco fell right off the bone, cut it with a fork! The Livornese sauce with the scampi simply eye-opening, no other way to describe it. I've heard the rave reviews about Jasper's. I took a chance going there on a very special anniversary, unaware of the menu prices. I must say, the affordability was a pleasant surprise. The servers and the owners went out of their way to make the night a special EXPERIENCE! Will be back next time in town!! ***** |

| Comments: | Wonderful as usual. We arrived at 7:00 with no reservation. Jasper Jr. greeted us and made sure we had a pleasant waiting experience. When we were seated the service, food and atmosphere were tremendous as usual. We were celebrating both my wife's and my birthday. Jasper Jr. went out of the way to make a special desert, Crepes, for us. Excellent is the only way to describe it. I am proud to call Leonard, Jasper Jr. and Sal my friends and will always reccomend them to all I talk to. |

| Comments: | Jaspers was fantastic as usual. We did not call ahead and when we arrived there was a short wait. Had a drink at the bar and then our table was ready. Jasper Jr. and his brothers took exceptional care of us. He told me about a benefit he is doing for the Window on the World staff from the World Trade Center. I wish I was free that evening to go. This is our favorite restaurant in Kansas City |

| Comments: | Like so many of the other reviewers, we too, love the Mirabiles...There's always a familiar face and we have so many special memories at this restaurant, it's difficult to spotlight just one. This is our favorite impromptu meal location (after meeting for "just a drink"), but also our "special occasion" pick, as well! |

| Comments: | I ordered the osso bucco, as I had read that it was so good. I'm sorry to say that I was disappointed. It was good, but not great. The sauce was pretty ordinary. I expected it to richer in flavor. I should have ordered a pasta dish like others in my group did, as they really liked what they had. |
