A plant-based meal company’s first brick-and-mortar restaurant in Johnson County is finally taking shape.

  • The restaurant will occupy a space at 4853 W. 117th St. on the east end of the southern Leawood shopping center.

The restaurant will serve plant-based and oil free meals

  • The Whole Harvest Kitchen menu will feature items like salads, sandwiches, pizzas and wraps.
  • Owners said all of it will be plant-based, with limited animal products and no oils.
  • In addition to food — including a range of grab-and-go options — Whole Harvest Kitchen will serve zero proof cocktails — which are also plant-based and do not contain alcohol.
  • The restaurant will have 71 indoor seats and a patio with 20 outdoor seats for dine-in service as well.

Whole Harvest started out as a meal delivery service

  • The company — which primarily operates out of North Kansas City, Missouri, and Denver, Colorado — mainly offers weekly delivered meals for customers to heat and eat at home.
  • This marks Whole Harvest’s first restaurant, though the company launched as a meal delivery service in 2018.
  • The company plans to expand with more locations across the Kansas City metro and the country.
