Where can I go for fine dining in Kansas?
We love our world famous Kansas BBQ, but sometimes the palette craves a more refined culinary experience. Newport Grill in Wichita is a must for surf and turf lovers. Freshly caught, wild seafood and locally sourced steak dishes are prepared to satisfy the sophisticated appetite. Make your meal complete with a pairing of a house infused speciality cocktail or a selection from Newport’s ample wine list. If you’re looking for romantic dining, the old-world atmosphere of Renaissance Cafe in the quaint town of Assaria will charm you. Located in a 97 year old high school and serving contemporary Northern Italian fare, this spot is truly a unique destination. Downtown Lawrence is home to 715, a chic European-style restaurant and cocktail bar. The menu offers handmade Tuscan cuisine sourced from area farms.
Which restaurants have the best patios in Kansas?
When the weather is nice, there’s nothing better than outdoor dining and Kansas restaurants provide a multitude of patio and rooftop options. Take in the views of downtown Manhattan at the Tallgrass Tap House. This contemporary brewpub serves upscale bar fare and a diverse selection of seasonal beers on tap. The romantic atmosphere of Paisano’s Ristorante in Topeka is perfect for a date night. This award winning local favorite is famous for their inviting patio and freshly prepared classical Italian dishes. For a fun and lively atmosphere, Cap'n Jack's Pub in Oakley has it all. Their large outdoor deck can be enjoyed year round and features a fireplace for the chillier months. Start your meal with handmade crab cakes then fill up on one of their half-pound Angus, Elk, Kobe or Buffalo burgers.
What are the best family-friendly restaurants in Kansas?
Sometimes finding a restaurant that will satisfy the whole family can be challenging. When your crew is craving burgers, check out Wichita’s Fizz Burgers & Bottles. These mouthwatering burgers are always made-from-scratch and served with a selection of one-of-a-kind sauces. Head east to Jumpin' Catfish in Olathe for a down home dining experience. Their farm-raised catfish can be prepared in a variety of ways and is served Southern family-style. Catfish isn’t the only dish on the menu, game and chicken entrees are also available. BBQ is always a great option for groups and Roy’s Hickory Pit in Hutchinson has been a family-friendly favorite since 1982. Ribs, brisket, sausage, and sandwiches can be served as small or large sized meals.
