## “Still Smiling Through the Storm!”
Patrick Mahomes was recently spotted at his and Travis Kelce’s new upscale steakhouse, 1587 Prime in Kansas City—this time not for a game-day visit, but simply for dinner with his wife Brittany Mahomes and his mother, Randi Mahomes. Despite current public blowback over pricing and food quality at the restaurant, Mahomes looked relaxed, composed, and drained of any visible concern—“still smiling through the storm,” as has been the refrain among fans.
### What’s the issue?
When 1587 Prime launched earlier this year inside the Loews Kansas City Hotel (on September 17, which also happens to be Mahomes’ 30th birthday), it carried big ambitions: luxury décor, fine-dining service, celebrity backing, and optimism that Kansas City would “call it our own,” as Mahomes put it.
But over the last several weeks the restaurant has drawn increasingly vocal criticism:
* A photo went viral showing a side dish of mashed potatoes priced at **$16**, drawing mockery and derision online. ([The Times of India][2])
* Reviewers and diners have described certain menu items as over-priced or lacking in expected quality. One Reddit user wrote:
> “If that’s mashed potatoes then I have 12 Super Bowl rings. I wouldn’t feed that to my dog.” ([Reddit][3])
* While some outlets praised the experience—one Business Insider visit enjoyed flambéed steak presentation and polished service.
* The mixed feedback has triggered a debate: Is 1587 Prime aspirational fine dining, or celebrity-branded pricing with uneven execution?
### The family photo that went viral
In the midst of the chatter, what got extra attention was the sight of Mahomes casually dining at 1587 Prime alongside his family. While the business saga raged, here was Mahomes showing up *as a guest*, not as a spokesperson or crisis manager. The image struck many as a message: “We’re still confident, we’re still here, and the business is still part of my life.” According to a Times of India story, this gesture from the Mahomes family has been seen as a subtle signal of internal confidence
### ✅ Why this moment matters
* **Image control**: Athletes-turned-entrepreneurs can’t limp quietly into trouble; public moments like this serve as reassurance—both to investors and to the fan base—that they remain invested.
* **Brand alignment**: Mahomes being present at the restaurant shows that ownership is not just symbolic. It reinforces authenticity—he’s not just lending his name.
* **Fan sentiment**: In a sport-obsessed city like Kansas City, where Mahomes and Kelce are cultural fixtures, the optics of being seen calmly in the seat of the storm help shape fan perception—“they care, they’re present.”
* **Business stakes**: This venture may be as significant off the field as any contract on it. Having strong foot-traffic, repeat customers, and elevated reputation early on matters for long-term viability.
### What’s next for 1587 Prime?
Here are some likely next steps:
* **Menu & service review**: Given the backlash over pricing and critique of items, the kitchen team may pivot, optimize quality, ensure consistency (especially sides!) and make adjustments.
* **Public relations engagement**: Being seen dining there is one thing. The team may engage more proactively—highlighting legitimate positive reviews, showcasing standout dishes, or offering behind-the-scenes glimpses of quality.
* **Broader access or tiered experience**: Some locals feel the place is priced for “elite” customers only. It might make sense to introduce options that offer high quality at slightly more accessible price points.
* **Community integration**: Since the original goal was for the place to feel like a Kansas City asset, not just a celebrity showroom, deeper local outreach (events, collaborations, perhaps special pricing nights) could help.
### Final word
Despite the whirl of social-media scrutiny—especially around what should have been a trivial component (mashed potatoes!)—this dinner outing shows Patrick Mahomes remains **unflappable**. He’s not hiding from the story; he’s part of the story. And for a business in its infancy, that kind of calm, confident presence can matter just as much as the menu.
