Zoes Kitchen - Leawood

My wife ordered the Greek Chicken Pita along with a side of Pasta Salad. For us, the quality of pita can really make or break a Mediterranean restaurant experience. Zoe’s pita was soft, chewy, and nearly perfect. The chicken was lightly seasoned, and the vegetables were fresh. There were bottles of Greek dressing available to enhance the flavor even more if desired. However, the pasta salad was a bit dry and lacked any standout taste. A drizzle of the Greek dressing helped improve it. I opted for the Salattrio bowl, which was unlike anything I had tried at other places with similar menus. It included a generous serving of Pesto Farro, cauliflower rice, and quinoa salad. There were also options for extra toppings like tzatziki and a good helping of crumbled feta. I chose the baked falafel for the protein option—though I admit, I usually associate falafel with being deep-fried. Taking a bite confirmed my concerns: while it had decent spices and flavor, it was a bit dry. Adding some Greek dressing made it more enjoyable. Fortunately, the rest of the bowl compensated for the falafel’s shortcomings. Each of the three salads contributed a unique flavor to the dish, and I never encountered the same taste in any single bite throughout our meal. The Farro was perfectly cooked, offering a satisfying texture. The quinoa was well-prepared as well; I’ve always enjoyed quinoa, and Zoe’s had just the right amount of seasoning to let it shine. As for the cauliflower salad, I had never had it before, and I was quite impressed. It had a mild flavor that complemented the other ingredients in the bowl. Overall, the Salattrio bowl was fantastic, and I look forward to trying it again with a different protein next time. The restaurant itself has bright decor and a friendly, helpful staff. They were quick to answer our questions as first-time visitors. Everything was clean, and the music was at a comfortable volume. There’s also outdoor seating available. I have a feeling I’ll be returning to this restaurant often in the future. Just a note: it’s located in the plaza and can be easy to miss, so be sure to keep an eye out for it!

The food is fresh and delicious. I really enjoy the kabobs with roasted vegetables and turmeric. It's a fantastic spot for lunch on weekdays.

The food is fresh and intriguing, featuring Mediterranean and Greek influences. The bowls stand out, offering a delightful combination of cauliflower rice, salad, and Greek yogurt, along with your choice of protein, including falafel. The selection of teas is enjoyable, and you can grab extra dressing for your table. You place your order at the counter and then pick up your food when it’s ready. The atmosphere feels a bit chilly, with an abundance of metal decor that isn't quite to my liking, but the staff are friendly and cheerful.

The food is great, the staff is friendly, and the menus are diverse. Love the various healthy options. But I can't order things that I want because they run out of objects all the time. Very frustrating to put your mind on Moroccan Citrus Chicken and end with Mediterranean chicken. First problems in the world, I know.

Today was my first day trying Zoe's Kitchen. I ate myself silly because everything looked so good!!! I love pesto so I got the pesto hummus. It was unbelievable!!! It was the best hummus I have ever had!!! The pita chips were so yummy, I just wish there was more. There was a lot of hummus but only a few chips. It wasn't terrible because I don't mind eating the leftover hummus with a fork. I also had the falafel. It had a quite a kick to it but it was still very good. For my entree I got the baked ravioli with the creamy tomato sauce and petso. It was the best ravioli I had ever eaten!!! It was rich, cheesy, and super fresh!!! My only complaint there is I asked for a side of rice but ended up with a salad with no salad dressing. I do not know if that my fault in not seeing a place where I can get my own dressing or I had forgotten to ask. It was no big deal though, I had plenty of food. I ended with getting a piece of their chocolate cake. I could eat another 10 pieces of that!!! It was moist, gooey, and super fresh!!!! When they said it was made daily, it was really is made daily!!! I will be coming back!!! The food and service is out of this world!!!
