Founders' Lounge, located within the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, offers a vibrant dining experience with a focus on New American cuisine. Known for its trendy atmosphere, this eatery serves delightful small plates that are perfect for an elegant dinner or a solo outing before the show. While the seating is somewhat limited and the portions on the smaller side, patrons rave about the excellent caprese salad and the impressive beverage selection. Ideal for groups and drenched in natural light with stunning views, it’s a wonderful spot to savor your meal before enjoying a performance. Reservations are recommended.

September 24, 2024Founders' Lounge at the Kauffman Center is the perfect pre-show spot!
The atmosphere is trendy and inviting, with stunning views out the windows. We indulged in the burrata caprese salad - absolutely delicious! While the steak frites could have been more flavorful, the Parmesan fries were a highlight.
The service was top-notch; our bartender was attentive despite being busy. With a lovely selection of cocktails and wines, it’s an enjoyable dining experience. Just keep an eye on those small plate portions! Can’t wait for my next visit before another performance! 🎶
