The Mafia’s Favorite Kansas City Restaurants That Are Still Open

In this video about The Mafia's Favorite Kansas City Restaurants That Are Still Open, we go back to June 2, 1978, when an FBI microphone hidden under a pizzeria table on Independence Avenue caught the Kansas City mob talking about the money skimmed from Las Vegas. That table started the Strawman case and took down boss Nick Civella. The pizzeria is gone now, but a handful of rooms where the Kansas City underworld drank, met, plotted and fought are still serving dinner today, from a 1903 grill that kept pouring through Prohibition to a speakeasy hidden under a fake storefront at Tenth and Broadway. Have you eaten at any of these places, or heard the stories from someone in Kansas City? Tell us in the comments, and share this video with someone who loves mob history.
