Port Fonda’s Patrick Ryan partners with Dan Doty on a new Mexican concept in Westport

  • Chef Patrick Ryan is bringing his talents to Westport.

It takes two to taco. Chef Patrick Ryan, the driving force behind the Airstream trailer/Mexican restaurant Port Fonda, is partnering with Dan Doty on an as-yet-unnamed Mexican concept.

The new restaurant will likely open by March of next year at 4141 Pennsylvania in Westport, where Doty had planned to build Barrio, a taqueria with the late John McClure.

“That something so tragic could present such a good opportunity, I’ve had mixed feelings about that,” Ryan says. “But I really don’t think there’s a better situation in all of Kansas City.”
