The Rieger

Today would (should) have been our 10th Anniversary. We’re reflecting on a lot of great memories, but mostly missing our fam, and the friends, regulars, farmers, and everybody else who was part of our community for the last decade. #beautifulfoodforthepeople

Pork tenderloins are hitting the fryer!! We’ve got pork and veggie sandwiches, fries and drinks to go today from noon til three!

Thanks to the huge outpouring of support we’ve been shown since announcing that we have to shutter at the end of this month, reservations have suddenly gotten really hard to come by. To help get more of our friends and neighbors in to see us again we decided to add an additional service this week and open up for dinner tonite! Check Tock for reservations and stay tuned here for more announcements about events next week. Thank you to everyone reaching out as we navigate this - we love you! We’ll be wearing our masks and staying socially distanced from you, but we’ve never felt closer to our community

There will be long, heartfelt posts and more information, in the next couple weeks, but for now we're just going to share some news. After many pivots, a lot of hard work and contemplation, we have decided that it no longer makes financial sense to operate under the conditions we're all living through while facing the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a gut-wrenching and difficult decision, but we need to announce that The Rieger will go dark on November 1st. It has been a great pri...vilege and a beautiful and enriching opportunity to be a part of the Kansas City culinary scene for nearly a decade and to get to cook for, serve and know so many of you. We also feel grateful that we were able to serve over 85,000 meals as the Crossroads Community Kitchen during the start of the pandemic and that is an experience our team will remember for the rest of our lives. Pending talks with our landlord and the potential of more federal relief and/or a widely distributed vaccine, we are holding on to hope of being able to relaunch at a future date. But for now, it seems like time to take a break. We hope to see new and old faces between now and October 31st. Thank you, Kansas City, for all the support and love over the years. We love you back.

In our industry, the things that drive us are hospitality, taking care of people, and feeding them. This was the chief motive behind our decision to operate as Crossroads Community Kitchen durning the first few months of the pandemic. During that time so many of our restaurant industry family and friends dropped off food, beer, coffee, and treats for our staff. Feeding us because they share the same passion and camaraderie. This is a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of our indu...stry brothers and sisters who took the time to take care of us. Thank You: @waldothai @thaiorchidkc @buffalostatepizzaop @pliberda @philippe.lechevin @chefcarlosfalcon @little_falcons @localpigkc @thebitekc @wingscafe @boulevard_beer @kcpinoy @norcinikc @kcpoio @butcherboi78 @chefmortera @ezetime And anyone who we may have missed on this list, THANK YOU! #thankyou #serviceindustry #restaurant #family #chefslead #kansascity #familymeal #kcstrong #peoplehelpingpeople #workfamily
