We have family who live in Smithville that have been raving about this place for a while now. For our recent wedding anniversary I wanted to take my wife someplace new. We stick to our can't-fail joints usually, but it's fun to try new places. Sometimes you discover a new can't-fail food gettin' place, and sometimes you visit places that you won't be back to.... The location is a spot that if you didn't know it was there, you'd drive right past it. It's on highway 169 on the south side of Smithville. Maybe that's why it's a well kept secret - and maybe that not such a bad thing, Inside is very tastefully decorated - colors are warm and welcoming. It's classy, but comfortable. Homey. We had reservations. I didn't mention the occasion, but they sat us at our table and there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers on it. I looked around and none of the other tables had a bouquet....maybe we were just lucky? We sat down and they brought out a bucket of wine and glasses! Somebody (my step-daughter) had arranged for a surprise (thanks Erin!). Our daughter had brought the flowers and wine in ahead of our visit and asked the owner to play along in the surprise. He did it up right too. Welcomed us, told us about his bistro, made us feel at home. The menu is an eclectic mix. You can get a burger...or you can get a steak, risotto....or fries. And with a Latin influence. You can go casual or classy here. We did a mix. I opted for seafood and my wife went for her usual salad and chicken. Everything was delicious. And the presentation! How often do you order food and realize it doesn't look anything like the pictures on the menu? Not here. My plate looked as though it was meant for their menu photo shoot. And tasted just as good. Impeccably plated. Shame it didn't last long. And my wife ate most of my mushroom risotto - can't blame her, but damn. See our pics. We didn't have room for dessert. Next time. Oh, there will be a next time. Food was excellent

By far the best food we've ever had in the northern towns outside of Kansas City. easily rivals some of the big name chefs in the city. I loved every single thing I tasted. Absolutely delicious and filling and fresh. We will be back to try more!

I have been meaning to try this restaurant for a long time and finally had a chance with family in town this week. We all enjoyed the food immensely and I am already making plans to return soon for brunch, which sounds wonderful!

I love this place! The food is always phenomenal and the service great. I was working on trying a different dish every visit before I had to move for work. Everything I ate there was flavorful and did not disappoint. Attached are some photos of the dishes I tried while living in the area.

Went with a group of ladies (9 of us) & brunch was wonderful! We all ordered something different & everything looked tasty. The servings were plentiful. I ordered an omelet with tomatoes, spinach & cheese, & it was huge! It came with breakfast potatoes.

Food takes a second to come out, it was a little hot so we asked them to turn on the fan and it was great. Chicken Alfredo is delectable. You can tell is is made very fresh, the noodles too.

If you’re ever in Smithville, Missouri, this place is a must-try. The food was absolutely delicious—everything we ordered was fantastic. The wait staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. It’s definitely a hole-in-the-wall spot, but well worth the drive, especially if you’re already in the area.

Yeah! The food was phenomenal. It was taking a little bit longer for it to come out for our big group. But once it arrived, totally worth it. I had the chicken and shrimp romesco, the sauce was awesome, the shrimp was perfectly cooked. And the green beans on the side which I normally toss because they are typically rock hard and crunchy we're actually well done. I also tried my friend's steak kebabs. They were not chewy at all, tender and flavorful. I also had the mushroom risotto and, again, perfectly cooked and flavorful. We are from California, but we all commented that if we return to Kansas City come out like to come back to those place.

Was very impressed with Aroma Bistro! Every bite was delicious and prices were very reasonable! We got the queso as an appetizer and my wife got the Salmon Piccata and I got the Chicken Madeira. The red wine reduction sauce on my dish was superb!! Will definitely be back!
