We held our company Christmas party at this Italian buffet restaurant and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The setup was perfect for a large group, with plenty of space and a great festive atmosphere. The buffet offered an excellent variety of Italian dishes, all fresh, flavorful, and constantly replenished. From pastas and pizzas to salads and desserts, there was something for everyone, and everything was delicious. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure the evening ran smoothly. Our whole team had a wonderful time, and many people went back for seconds! Highly recommended for group events and celebrations.
Only my second time eating here. But the brunch was just as fabulous as the dinner. Amazing food. And our waiter was awesome too. I wish I could remember his name. But I was in a big crowd, but he maintained and kept up with us. Ramirez Birthday Family, Saturday @11:30 for reference. We'll be back next year.

Price wise, it's a steal, with hand-made crepes, amazing pastas, and more. Tye service was just as good! Our server never let our drinks get empty. She was abe to offer some great suggestions on the best things to try as well. I can't say enough about this restaurant!
Somethings NEVER change! Cinzetti's was our FAVORITE restaurant while we were stationed in KCMO! It was PHENOMENAL 10 years ago and now 8 years later it's still just as PHENOMENAL! Service was AWESOME and even though we were a large party, SERVICE was above and beyond!!!!THANK YOU for making my visit another WONDERFUL memory! Till next year
Cinzetti’s is a solid Italian buffet with good variety and better-than-average food quality. It’s not luxury dining, but it’s definitely a step above typical buffets, especially considering the reasonable pricing. The pasta, pizza, and desserts were fresh and tasty, and there were plenty of options for different tastes. The atmosphere is lively and often crowded, which gives it more of a busy family-restaurant vibe rather than a quiet dining experience. The only real downside was the wait at some stations — especially the chocolate crêpe station, where only one employee was working, causing long lines. Overall, if you’re looking for a high-value buffet with good quality and don’t mind the crowd, Cinzetti’s is a strong choice.
The food here was absolutely incredible — everything smelled so fresh, and the flavors were unbelievable. Italian cuisine is my favorite, and I can honestly say I’ve never had Italian food this amazing in my life. I visited with my husband and our couple friends, and all four of us loved every dish we tried. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, but the service could definitely be better. Our server seemed in a rush and brought us the check before we were even done eating, which made things feel a bit awkward. Despite that, the food was outstanding, and we’ll definitely be back. I still highly recommend this place for anyone who loves authentic, delicious Italian food. ????????
Food overall was very good. Like any buffet some items were just ok while others stood out. Chicken spedini was great along with meat balls, calamari, lasagna, chicken cacciatore and some other great dishes. The salad was good and the home made croutons were fantastic. One pasta salad seemed a little under cooked but you can't win em all. The dessert was what seemed to shine for us. We don't normally do dessert but there were so many options I went for it. Mini canolli had a crunchy flaky shell and a hint of cinnamon that I paired with vanilla ice cream. The ice cream made the cinnamon pop which I wasn't expecting and it was fantastic. My wife tried the chocolate lava cake and it had a crunchy outter shell with a super moist cake on the inside and chocolate sauce. Very good!!! This place has something for most everyone and it is hard to beat for the price. Check it out!!!
I've never heard of an Italian buffet but it blew my mind. I'm not exaggerating when I say I had four helpings of tiramisu. The gnocchi was lights out. And if you don't love Italian food there are other options for you too. I'd highly recommend the mashed potatoes, the herb chicken, and fried eggplant. Those were so good I was tempted to not even get any pasta and to completely fill up on them.
