La Bodega is a Spanish tapas restaurant and event venue situated on Southwest Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri. Founded by James Taylor — whose background spans architecture, culinary training, brewmaster certification, and event management — the restaurant draws from the tapas traditions of Northern Spain and the Basque region, where small-plate dining is as much about camaraderie and unhurried conversation as it is about food. Taylor also founded Missouri's first brewpub and has built La Bodega around a philosophy of "World Class Hospitality" and the concept of lagniappe: that unexpected extra touch that transforms a gathering into a memorable experience. For private events, La Bodega accommodates a range of formats through its main dining room, Chef's Table, custom tapas bar, and open-air patio. Full and partial restaurant buyouts are available for groups that want exclusive use of the space. The events team handles everything from catered office lunches and cocktail receptions to on-site private dinners, pairing a culinary-driven menu of tapas with hand-crafted cocktails to suit the occasion.
