North Italia's Leawood dinner menu posts 30 wines, every one with a glass price, plus two non-alcoholic options. Glass pours run $11 to $17.50 and bottles $44 to $70, and half of the 30 are reds. The menu is undated, so confirm what's pouring.
The whites lean Italian: Verdicchio from Casalfarneto in Marche at $44 a bottle, Pala "Soprasole" Vermentino from Sardinia at $48, Villa Matilde Greco di Tufo from Campania at $50 and Feudo Montoni "Timpa" Grillo from Sicily at $52. Reds include Marchesi di Gresy Barbera at $52, Borgo Scopeto Chianti Classico at $60, Ornellaia "Le Volte" at $68 and Fontanafredda "Silver Label" Barolo at $70, which ties the Delille Cellars "D2" red blend for the top bottle price. California shows up with Gary Farrell Russian River Chardonnay at $66, Valravn Pinot Noir at $68 and Iconoclast "By Chimney Rock" Cabernet Sauvignon at $68.
All 30 wines carry a glass price, from $11 for the Casalfarneto Verdicchio to $17.50 for the Fontanafredda Barolo and the Delille "D2". The 28 still wines also list a terzo size, running $14.50 to $23, and a bottle price. Sparkling is the Bottega Prosecco and the Cleto Chiarli Sparkling Rosé at $12.50 a glass each. The Happy Hour menu, served in the bar Monday to Friday 3 to 6 pm, lists Featured Italian Wines at $10 a glass or $35 a bottle: Grillo, Greco di Tufo, Barbera and Negroamaro.
The Bottom Line
A glass-first Italian list: 30 wines priced from $11 to $17.50 a glass, with bottles from $44 to $70. Order the $12 Pala Vermentino, or the $15 Borgo Scopeto Chianti Classico with a pizza, and ask for the $10 Happy Hour Greco di Tufo if you sit in the bar on a weekday between 3 and 6 pm. This unrated guide covers the posted wine menu, not service, storage or markups, and the menu is undated, so confirm prices.

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.

Antonetas isn't a wine destination, and it isn't trying to be — it's a family-friendly neighborhood Italian with a wine list that covers the basics and stays out of the way. If you're after a solid glass of something red with your Lasagna in a no-fuss setting, you won't be disappointed. Just don't show up expecting to geek out over the list.

Crust is a solid neighborhood Italian spot where the wine list is a supporting player, not the headliner — and that's fine. Come for the rigatoni alla vodka and garlic knots; order a glass of whatever red they're pouring and don't overthink it. We'd send a friend here for dinner without hesitation, just not for the wine list alone.

Vespucci's isn't a wine destination, but it doesn't pretend to be — and that honesty is refreshing. The one move that earns real respect here is the Monday half-price bottle deal, which turns an ordinary weeknight into a genuinely good value. Show up on a Monday, order the Eggplant Parmigiana, grab a bottle at half price, and you've had a solid dinner without thinking too hard about it.
