First time here, cool little trendy place on the Plaza. Food looks amazing, waiting on my $100 burger now. If its half as good as it sounds I will be happy. Pretty good selection of 100 bottle or so plus 3-4 on tap. Decent variety of craft and import (including one from Kenya), and different styles. Seems to be reasonably priced too.

Visited on a bust Friday night with the family. I was glad I had booked a reservation on OpenTable, as the place was jammed with people waiting to get in. As with the Leawood location, interior is modern and designed to be loud. There is also a nice little patio out front. Beer selection is really solid, particularly for the immediate Plaza. This location also features four or so draft beers, which is nice. I always find the burgers well above average, and the sides are equally good. The only beef I had on this visit was our server’s lack of knowledge around the draft beer list. Of the two she read off, I was completely confused as to what they were. Eventually, I just went up to the bar to figure out that "Anchor Steam Winter Lager" equals "Anchor Our Special Ale". I know that’s quibbling, and an honest mistake (I am sure she was thinking Sam Adams Winter Lager) but still this is symbolic of what keeps a place like this from being a serious beer destination. Regardless, Blanc is always a great spot for a fun meal with an above average beer.

Designed really well. Awesome happy hours. Good beer selection. Great burgers. Awesome Fries

This place has a great list of beers and great list of burgers. Problem I ran into was the beer choices my group made went 3 for 8 on our choices. Could have been just a busy time where they ran out of beer, or could have been they were just about to get a shipment in. Either way, enjoyed the beer we got and we had a great time.

Pretty good selection of beers and great, but pricey, burgers. The ambiance is a bit too sterile retro chic. Nevertheless, worth a stop for the "$100 burger" (actually $15) and a bottle of beer served in proper glassware, when you have extra cash to spare.

Groovy baby. The retro cool of Blanc almost slaps you in the face when you walk in. Hidden away in an underground lair, you’re not quite sure what to expect. But the vibrant colors and minimalist throwback design make you immediately comfortable. Great selection of bottles (as one would expect), but their food selection is inspired. Small shopping carts are used as a delivery vehicle for various foods, all fried of course. The burgers are all cooked to perfection, and among the best I’ve ever had. Wonderful place for a burger and a beer.

Finally went here and probably wont return, its not bad just nothing about it appeals to me. It is WAY TOO LOUD. The decor is nice but it seems like something that should be on Sprockets. Bottom line its a lot of bottles, normal markup for a restaurant, but nothing interesting. Food is fancy burgers, while good, not the best. So, I would rather pick up beer at a store, make my own burgers, and turn up the sound on my TV to recreate the experience.

Thoroughly modern atmosphere and decor, lots of white and neon. Beer selection is, as the name suggests, primarily limited to bottles, but some effort has been put into optimizing the selection, for certain. My wife and I split a mini shopping carts’ worth of the Truffle Fries, which sounded a little better than they turned out to be. Burger was pretty good, not the best I’ve had around town, though. I don’t recall having any complaints about the service. Given that I don’t hang out in Westport much any more, I probably won’t visit this place, really, because its not worth a special trip, in my opinion.

Good burgers, good fries. A good bottle list. Not the best place to go in KC for beer only (see Flying Saucer, Grinders, and Yard House) but one of the best places to go for a nice beer with a great burger.

Very surprised! A great little beer list! I used it as an apportunity to complete the Boulevard smokestack, but there was just about every variety of beer you could ask for from a restaurant. As for the food, the calamari frites may have been the best individual item I’ve ever had at a place I’ve rated on RateBeer.
