Qudo’s Cigar and Cognac Bar

Fantastic service! Really friendly people work here! Nice atmosphere, comfy seating. Kick ass heated smoking areas with TVs. I will come back next time I am in town.

Stopped in on happy hour on a Friday. The nice part was sitting on the coveted patio to feel the breeze and watch passersby. The drinks were strong and while out of an ingredient for one of their signature drinks, the bartender did her best to make it good and then didn’t charge me after two strong drinks. That was pretty great of her. Can’t speculate on food or party vibe as it was quiet when I was there.

Slow service and overpriced, given this place many chances, but it appears to be getting worse. I do not recommend.

At Quodos on last minute trip. Great spot, great location. One of only a couple of places to smoke. Open air venue. Good LIT (long island tea). Always a bosomy female at the bar. Sections to chill and be with or away from the crowd. Downtown, so easy access. The stogie selection isn’t great, so BYOC. Put it on your itinerary when you come to KC.

I’m never disappointed with this place. Great drinks and the only spot in KC where I can hear hip hop with a sophisticated crowd. The only compliant I have is the space. It could seem really small on a busy night. Other than that, this is my go to spot if I want to hear good music and have a drink or two :)

Power & Light caliber style, without feeling snobby. Great prices on wells. Strong drinks.

Went last Saturday night for the mayweather flight I was in town for the cowboys vs chiefs game. Very cool spot good drinks and the wings and pizza are good. Nice patio to smoke and watch tv. Would come back next time I am in town

Qudo’s is my favorite place to chill. They have a massive screen for when you watch the game, good music and great food. They have a really nice happy hour and also have live music from time to time. You’d expect them to sell cigars, obviously, but they also have hookah. This is the only place in Kansas City that sells hookah, food and alcohol all in the same establishment. If you’re a fan of tacos, be sure to stop by on Tuesdays for $ 1 tacos.
Really good place to chill and have a drink.

In KC with the BF and since we were staying in the Library District and Qudo’s was within easy walking distance, decided to give it a go. Really nice ambiance: upscale-​chill, with 2 open-​air smoking sections. Qudo’s has my fav vodka, Tito’s, so we ordered a vodka martini each — Waitress hurried over to inform us they were out of vermouth, but could still just make them with straight vodka and olive juice — Sure, why not? Tasted fantastic — just the right amount of «dirtiness» and didn’t miss the vermouth one bit. The service was really spot-​on — Both the waitress and bartender made it a point to swing by to ensure we were happy with our drinks. Love the fact they also serve food — And not the typical greasy barfood, but actual real dining dishes. We settled on the Alfredo pesto pasta — WOW! Super yummy! Not a huge fan of pesto, but this dish does pesto right by just having a hint. Now I don’t know if it was b/​c of the holiday weekend or what, but it was pretty dead for a Friday night — Maybe 6 – 8 other people in the place, plus a DJ who was kicking out R&B jams. Think this place would be great for folks to chill and catch-​up; I unfortunately did not get to try a cigar, but the next time I’m in KC, will definitely be coming back and perhaps, I’ll get my opportunity then. Definitely recommend.

You should go there to hear Ala Mode Jazz Trio, they’re amazing!

I loved this place. I like to smoke cigars and I like have a nice cocktail. The environment supports both activities. The food is the bomb! The staff knows their stuff about the type of cigar you are looking for. They even got a little dance floor if you want to get your groove on. My friend says Thursday night is the hottest night. I only been there on the weekends and I still like it.

OK. I’ve known about Qudo’s for a while now, and can definitely see how I (and apparently, most people) never thought to try it out.
I don’t drink cognac. I don’t smoke cigars. What could I possibly like at this place?
For starters, the main dining/​bar/​lounge area is really spacious, comfortable and clean. There are 2 separate patios that face out onto Grand and are perfect for people watching. Or smoking a cigar out of their collection, if that’s your thing. It’s not mine, but they have a big list with recommended drink pairings, which is kind of fun.
I came here for lunch on my first visit and the food absolutely lived up to and way over any expectations I had. There’s a rather large menu of sandwiches, pastas, salads and pizza. I had the chicken alfredo pizza (…minus the chicken) and it was so delicious. My roommate had the cheeseburger that came on Texas Toast with two sides… she ordered baked beans and roasted potatoes, the latter of which I sampled and really liked.
They have a lot of live music, so check out their calendar. I’ve had a couple of great experiences here when I never even thought to try Qudo’s out. I think KC really needs to come out and support this local business.
