    This is a really cute cafe. I had a delicious giant salad, and the staff were all very nice. The desserts looked fantastic, but since I just had a salad I didn't ruin the health kick that I was on and instead I passed by the dessert case without getting anything. I wish I did. The salads are mostly in the 16-19 dollar range. The menus don't have prices on them?... but they have a QR code to scan that shows menu items with prices.

    Caffetteria has been delicious since the day it opened. They are constantly rotating fresh flavors and using local ingredients. They have the BEST salmon in the city, seriously. The prices may seem high but consider that you are paying for quality, local ingredients and also a working environment which takes care of their employees. I love a quick lunch (Adam and even with salmon is my go to) and a sweet treat from here on my days off and love a take home meal I can heat up in the oven when I AM working. The seasonal fun gift items are so fun to look through. They also have the best hummus and pimento cheese. Don’t sleep on the homemade crackers either! We often come here for breakfast as well and love the burrito, sando, and the veggie hash. This is the seasonal apple turkey and Brie sandwich. To die for.

    Caffeteria is an absolute gem! I ordered the Buddha Bowl, and it was nothing short of amazing. Every bite was bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors — the vegetables were perfectly crisp, the grains cooked just right, and the dressing tied it all together with a deliciously balanced tang. The presentation was beautiful too, making it as much a feast for the eyes as for the palate. The atmosphere in the cafe is warm and modern, with just the right mix of cozy and stylish. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and clearly take pride in what they do. You can tell a lot of care goes into every dish. If you’re looking for a spot that delivers both in taste and experience, this place should be at the top of your list. I’ll definitely be coming back — and next time, I’m bringing friends!

    This was my first visit to Caffetteria Modern Cafe & Market in Kansas City, and I wish I lived closer because I would be a regular. I went for lunch with a friend and was pleasantly surprised to see a half sandwich and salad combo for $15. I ordered the 1/2 turkey avocado sandwich with the Adam and Eve salad. At first, I worried the portions might not be filling enough, but once the food arrived I was thrilled. The serving size was generous and both the sandwich and salad were absolutely delicious. Instead of a server here, you just go up to the register and order then they will bring your food over to your table. I also loved the corner of the cafe stocked with grab-and-go items and fun kitchen trinkets. Overall, such a great spot and I would recommend it to anyone in the area.

    Excellent food. Meatballs are a great deal, 3 for $6. Very large portion. The chicken sandwich with apples was excellent. Great cobb salad. The menu doesn't list the prices. The dining area was dirty and could not find a clean table.
