Cashew   

We actually just had our rehearsal dinner in the 2nd Floor private party room and our wedding reception (230 people) on the 3rd floor of 2000 Grand. The place looked incredible..... we didn't have to worry about doing anything. Our cordinator took care of all the little details I could've possibly been thinking about. The bartenders and the service staff were all friendly, extremely helpful and organized! Great food! Of course, the Kansas City skyline view was the perfect romantic chic look we wanted. We would absolutely recommend having an event here!!

Great spot to hang out and people watch. I definitely make sure that all out of town guests experience The Cashew! Always full of attractive staff and customers. Best view of downtown in KC!

***WARNING!!!! ***TAKE YOUR PRIVATE PARTIES ELSEWHERE! PATHETIC VENUE! Perhaps if you're simply drunk & have never partied in better than a barn you might love this hole. WHEN IN REALITY... There is NO Airconditioning in the upper floor ballrooms. They say & sell that there is, but it does not function, NEVER HAS! It was 98 degrees on June 27th when they screwed hundreds of clients over with the lies & BS! There was a crew of HVAC techs kicked out about 2 hours before guests arrived so they were not caught afro-engineering some laughing stock of a AC system that very afternoon. THIS VENUE HAS BEEN OPEN FOR MONTHS IF NOT YEARS DOING THIS TO EVENT AFTER EVENT OVER & OVER!!!! THE LIES MUST STOP!!!! The Video system FAILED when the clients group was to present a crucial heartfelt video & the venue had nothing but more pathetic excuses. They blew all their money on Garage doors instead! lol The management staff is very very rude, over worked, understaffed, incompetent and just plain pathetic. I wouldn't vomit on their sidewalk the next time I drove by drunk in a cab even if I was a loyal jayhawk fan! ***WARNING!!!! ***TAKE YOUR PRIVATE PARTIES ELSEWHERE! OBVIOUSLY THIS VENUE CANNOT SUPPORT PRIVATE EVENTS! SHOULD YOU TAKE THE CHANCE????????? Furthermore, this venue is NOT handicapped accessable. If I was in a wheelchair I would NOT go upstairs EVER under any *************, you'll just get trapped in the building owners private garage & burn up with his mercedes collectables. It's like Fort Knox getting in & out of that hole. NOT VENDOR FRIENDLY BY ANY STRETCH of the imagination! GOOD LUCK if you take the risk!

The Cashew has a great vibe when is it slamming on a Friday or Saturday night. They now have a reverse happy hour with 1/2 price beers and some appetizers every night starting at 11:00 pm. Try the hummus.
