There is only 1 Ponak’s, it’s a KC institution everyone should visit. I don’t even live in KC but always go when I return. Simply the best margarita’s anywhere. Unique and not like what you’ve had before, made with Rose’s Lime Juice and a good amount of booze. Bonus, you can get them to go. Their food is great, excellent Tex-Mex style. Highly recommend the Sonoran Tacos, deep fried to perfection. But everything is good. Good chance there will be a small wait but tables turn quick, just have a pitcher of margs while you wait. Always fast service and nice folks.

Came to try it out since we heard their margaritas were really good … the food or the drinks were pretty bad ..disappointing…

This was my second time coming to Ponaks. We showed up around 2 o clock and ordered half pitcher margaritas. The salsa is so good and spicy! Our bartender was very friendly and funny! He convinced us to stay until Happy Hour started :) Will be coming back to try more food off the menu!

I go to Ponak’s Mexican Kitchen & Bar all the time with friends and family. It has a rich Kansas City history and Boulevard Brewing Company, just down the street, sold their first keg here. Go for the Margaritas, which are strong, stay for the great local Mexican food. Family friendly atmosphere. Usually there is a bit of a wait, but I have come to expect this because everyone else in KC likes this place as much as I do.

It's a Mexican restaurant/bar with fantastic margaritas. There are TVs with sports on them in the bar area. No live music entertainment if that's what you were asking.

Do they have a party to and if so does it cost to reserve it? How many people does it sit?

Brenda Sowers | Sep 7, 2019

Yes and No, small parties, it's first come first serve. Larger corporate outings may get reservations, Depending on what day and the time of day that you go, there will most likely be a wait if your party reserves a table at the check in area. Hope that helps.

Yes, especially for large parties but I think on weekends they don't usually because they're just so busy.
