Kona Grill says its Kansas City restaurant sits on the south end of Country Club Plaza on Ward Parkway, next to Brush Creek. The Beverages menu runs through cocktails, saké and beer before the wine, which is set out by style and grape: Bubbles, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Other Whites, Rosé, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Other Reds and one Large Format bottle. The wine section shows pour sizes but no prices; the only wine prices posted are on the Happy Hour menu.
The Beverages menu names 39 wines, and 22 of them are labeled California. Cabernet Sauvignon is the longest group at nine wines: Two Vines and Josh come in 6 oz and 9 oz pours, while Stag’s Leap Artemis and Caymus are bottle only. Chardonnay has seven wines, with Rombauer from Napa Valley offered by the bottle only. Outside California you get Kim Crawford and Craggy Range from New Zealand, Whispering Angel from Côtes de Provence, Terrazas Malbec from Mendoza and a Chateau St. Michelle Riesling from Columbia Valley. The bubbles group includes Chandon in 187 ml bottles and a Veuve Clicquot in a 375 ml bottle.
Nineteen wines list 6 oz, 9 oz and bottle formats, among them Cupcake Moscato d’Asti, La Marca Prosecco, Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc, Whispering Angel, Josh Cabernet and Meiomi Pinot Noir. At Happy Hour, the menu lists generic Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Moscato and Cabernet Sauvignon at $6 each, plus Bonanza by Caymus Cabernet, Sea Sun by Caymus Pinot Noir and Butter Chardonnay at $9 each; the pour size is not stated. The Kansas City page lists Happy Hour as 2pm to 6pm on weekdays and 9pm to close every night, with all-day Happy Hour on Mondays (its hours block adds Tuesdays), so check before you go.
The Bottom Line
A broad list set out by variety, with prices posted only for Happy Hour wine. Order the Chateau St. Michelle Riesling with the Macadamia Nut Chicken, or come at Happy Hour for the $9 Sea Sun by Caymus Pinot Noir or Bonanza Cabernet and ask what the pour is. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

Fogo de Chão Kansas City isn't a wine destination, but it's not a wine disappointment either. Prices are fair, the South American focus makes thematic sense, and the VIK and Lapostolle picks show there's a ceiling here above the house pour. Come for the beef, drink the Eulila, leave happy.
