This little supermarket had a pretty nice salad bar/hot food service area. Me and the wife and daughter were very surprised had a good lunch and it didn't break the bank in Kansas City during another cheer competition. We would definitely go back there for lunch.

I can't believe I haven't review this place, but this place used to be my go to when I worked in downtown a lot. But even now, I still like this place to shop, they have decent hot food bar, even sushi and great selection of liquor. But let me rave about their bakery department. I have always love their cakes, I gotten my birthdays cakes here because you can custom or preorder it here. They make it easy and prices are fair. Love their Bavarian and Chantily Cream Cake. I want to expand my taste and tried their other desserts, but yesss their bakery good is a must! Plus they got friendly staff too.

This market is ideal for one stop meals and groceries; especially when visiting from out-of-town. They hot food, lots of options to build your salad, sandwich-making station, sushi, and areas to eat if there for lunch/dinner. Fresh produce and everything you need on your grocery list. We visit KC for big volleyball tournaments, so this market is always visited for all our needs. Some employees need friendly customer service; a smile can go a long way. But the market is such a great place, it makes up for the sub-par customer service. Maybe expecting all the busyness during these tournaments isn't ideal for the workers. I don't know. But this market is worth shopping at.

Beautiful market with great looking produce! Great place to grab snacks for the room or road!! Full deli and great wine selection!

Oh how grateful I am to have Cosentino's downtown! Since it's the only grocery store downtown, of course it's a little expensive, but I accept that for the convenience. It's located smack dab in the middle of downtown between 2 streetcar stops - perfectly convenient. And because it's smallish and located in a city block, of course it's not going to have every single thing you could ever need, but it has plenty of options to keep my fridge stocked. They have an excellent hot bar, sushi bar, build-your-own-sandwich station, and even a gelato counter, which makes this a great option for a quick lunch or dinner downtown too. There are always people hanging out and eating in the Cosentino's. There is a convenient parking garage attached to the Cosentino's, and you can get your parking validated at check out! So convenient.

We go to this market when we are visiting KC. They have a good selection of items available. It's great that they have a deli, salad bar, hot bar, delicious produce and bakery. When you're visiting from out of town and don't have access to a kitchen, their selections make visiting a lot more convenient and healthier since you're not forced to eat out. Our favorite is definitely the gelato and the bakery. Customer service is half and half. The cashiers are friendly and some of the employees are okay. This is a smaller grocery store and somewhat expensive but it's worth the convenience.

Cosentino's Downtown Market is on the corner, across from The Yardhouse. They validate parking for up to 2 hours with any purchase. My husband and I stopped by this market earlier today, thinking we could do some grocery shopping and also see what we may want to eat for lunch. If you are coming for a meal, you can purchase a premade sandwich or one made fresh, a slice of pizza, premade salad or check out the salad bar ($9/ lb), fried chicken or catfish, chef's meal (fish, pork, beef, etc), various of pastries, chocolates and cakes, gelato, tea/ coffee and sushi. We ended up choosing the following for lunch: 16 oz Chai Latte, $3.99 prior to tax- This chai latte came hot and it tasted nice and smooth. Great size for the price. Grilled Chicken Club Salad, $9.99 prior to tax- I decided to just get a large salad instead of trying to make my own salad (because the price can add up). My salad did not come with salad dressing but you can purchase a packet of dressing for $0.59. The same for if you make your own salad from the salad bar, it does not come with dressing and only dressing in a packet is available. The size of this salad was more than plenty to share with my husband. The amount of chicken was very generous. The salad is made with iceberg and romaine lettuce 2 Piece Chicken Meal, $9 prior to tax- This meal comes with 2 sides, my husband picked assorted vegetables and mashed potatoes with gravy. His vegetables were overcooked, as they were very soft. The vegetable mix was broccoli, cauliflower and sliced carrots. The mashed potatoes and gravy was good. The chicken was also just fine. My husband enjoyed his meal and felt full afterwards. Cinnamon Roll, $2 prior to tax- The price for the size of this cinnamon roll is very cheap so my husband had to get it. He has not had it yet and most likely will try some later this evening and probably finish the rest tomorrow morning. ---------------------------------------- (Total= $27.80 after tax) We also ended up doing some grocery shopping afterwards, mostly picked up fruits and vegetables. The prices surprisingly aren't too expensive. The produce seem to be on par with another local grocery market that I had shopped at a few days ago. The employee who rang us up the first time (for our lunch) was very friendly. The second employee (who rang us up when we purchased our grocery items) was nice but not overly friendly. There is a nice dining area upstairs and there is also a dining area by the registers at the front of the store. There is also self serve water in both areas. If you wish to use the restroom, you have to as the employees at the customer service desk for the code. If I lived in this area, I would definitely be a regular at this market.

I love a fancy grocery store. Gelsons, wegmans, ajs fine foods. All of them amazing. Cosentinos is no different. Beautiful store with tons of hot, cold options, sushi and more. I stayed down the street and went every day I was in town.
