apa Lew’s Restaurant is located in the heart of downtown Kansas City, Missouri.

We pride ourselves in the preparation and delivery of true Soul Food. Soul food is something that can only be prepared from the heart. Other restaurants attempt to duplicate our style and taste but they are missing the main ingredient: LOVE. As the oldest Soul Food Restaurant in Kansas City our love for what we do and who we serve is packed into every Soul Delicious bite. Welcoming guests into Papa Lew’s to enjoy a Home Cooked Meal with hugs and genuine warmth has made Papa Lew’s who we are today.
