Kelce, Mahomes opening ‘experiential modern steakhouse’ in KC (just in time for a three-peat Super Bowl run?)
March 15, 2024 | Startland News Staff
Two Chiefs stars are teaming up for a new restaurant concept within Loews Hotel Kansas City — calling plays on the upscale steakhouse project with plans to open by early 2025.
The collaboration with Super Bowl champions Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce would mean 1587 Prime — an immersive dining experience with a name inspired by the players’ jersey numbers — could open just as the Kansas City standouts are making a playoff run for their third consecutive win at the big game in New Orleans.
Noble 33, a global hospitality group with restaurants in Los Angeles, Scottsdale, Las Vegas, New York, Toronto, London, and coming soon to Miami and Houston, announced plans for 1587 Prime Thursday.
“Travis and I have become frequent visitors of Noble 33 restaurants in other cities, so it only made sense to bring something special to our own community in Kansas City,” Mahomes said in a press release.

1587 Prime will offer street-level access within the Loews hotel, opening into a nearly 10,000 square feet space across two floors. It is expected to boast multiple private dining rooms, a world-class chef’s kitchen, a “jaw-dropping meat display,” all with hyper-subtle nods to Mahomes’ and Kelce’s on-field accomplishments, added Tosh Berman and Mikey Tanha, co-founders of Noble 33.

“We are thrilled to partner with Patrick and Travis to help bring our collective vision to life with 1587 Prime. This partnership represents a convergence of culinary artistry, athletic prowess, community enrichment, and unmatched hospitality,” said Tanha.
The restaurant’s extensive wine collection, which will be one of the largest in the state, has been meticulously curated to complement the menu’s diverse offerings, the duo added.
“We’re excited to be a part of this journey with Noble 33 to create a one-of-a-kind dining experience, and what better place to start than our very own, Kansas City,” said Kelce.
Noble 33’s corporate team is a global workforce with offices in Denver, and a corporate presence in Las Vegas and soon Miami. The hospitality group is undergoing global expansion, with seven restaurant projects slated to open in the next 18 months.
