Lenexa City Center’s growing restaurant scene will soon be home to a new upscale steakhouse.
This week, Kansas City-based developer Copaken Brooks announced the incoming arrival of Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill to the area, a concept by Texas-based restaurant group SPB Hospitality.
Stoney River is coming to 8687 Scarborough St.
- The restaurant plans to occupy a 8,000-square-foot space on the northeast corner of 87th and Scarborough streets.
- Stoney River Steakhouse will serve as part of the growing AdventHealth Campus at Lenexa City Center, surrounding the newly-built hospital that recently opened there.
- Pending the beginning of construction this fall, the restaurant group says it plans to open the new Lenexa restaurant in early 2027.
The Lenexa restaurant marks Stoney River’s JoCo debut
- SPB Hospitality is known for other nationally-recognized restaurants, including steakhouse J. Alexander’s, which has an Overland Park location.
- Stoney River’s menu offers a variety of “hand-cut” steaks, seafood dishes and specialty cocktails.
- “Lenexa City Center offers the ideal setting to introduce Stoney River to Kansas City,” said Bob Fargo, Senior Vice President of Development for SPB Hospitality, in a media release. “With its mix of health care, retail, office and residential uses, the campus reflects the type of thriving, all-day environment where our upscale dining concept can flourish. We’re proud to bring the Stoney River experience — already beloved in markets across the country — to a community that values quality and connection.”
More new restaurants are coming to Lenexa City Center
- Colorado-based breakfast eatery Urban Egg also plans to open a new Lenexa location next year in the same yet-to-be-built mixed-use building that Stoney River plans to occupy.
- Urban Egg already has one Johnson County location in Overland Park, with plans to further expand in Johnson County in the coming years.
- At the same growing corner, Kansas City-based restaurant Five Four Restaurant and Drafthouse (formerly 54th Street Scratch Grill & Bar) plans to open a new restaurant with outdoor amenities like golf bays and yard games like bag and ring tossing.
- This space near the AdventHealth campus is also separate from another food-focused development nearby: “Restaurant Row,” near the corner of Renner Boulevard and City Center Drive that is currently home to four eateries, including Southern-style restaurant Tupelo Honey.
