My husband and I were passing through Salina and staying overnight at the hotel, so when we…read morediscovered there was a Burger Theory attached to the property, we were actually genuinely excited. We have eaten at Burger Theory locations in Phoenix before and have always had fairly good experiences there, so this felt like a comfortable and easy dinner option after a long travel day on the road. Unfortunately, this particular visit wound up being pretty underwhelming. When we arrived, much of the restaurant seating area appeared closed off, and guests were being kept primarily within one corner section of the dining room. I assume this was done to simplify cleanup and staffing management for the evening, which I can certainly understand from an operational standpoint, but it also gave the restaurant a strangely restricted atmosphere. Now after a long drive, honestly almost any hot meal feels welcome. But the food itself simply did not feel up to the Burger Theory standard we were expecting based on previous visits elsewhere. The burger meat tasted under-seasoned and lacked the savory richness and flavor I usually associate with a good burger. The food also arrived a little less warm than it probably should have been, which made the meal feel even less satisfying overall. And unfortunately, the service did not help improve the experience. Our server was difficult to find for long stretches of time, and on the occasions when she was visible, she often appeared focused on her phone instead. At a certain point my husband and I mostly just exchanged that quiet married-couple glance that says: "Well... this is probably not going to improve." Needless to say, we left feeling fairly disappointed and honestly just ready to finish dinner and retreat back to the room for the evening. Not every road trip meal becomes memorable for the right reasons, I suppose.

The young adults were working their tails off, it was busy with locals and tourists alike! My pork tenderloin sandwich was delish, with freshly griddled bread.

Our malts were tasty, too - although I did order butterscotch and wasn't totally convinced they forgot the butterscotch! Still good though. Wilson is worth a stop for the egg and the Snack Shack.

The Sample Room is a restaurant located on the lower level of the Midland Railroad Hotel (a…read morehistoric hotel). The restaurant got its name from the olden days when merchants traveling through Wilson would use this area to display their products or "samples". We were staying at the Midland RR Hotel and wanted to try the restaurant as well. The room has a very historic look and feel. Due to its location in the basement and the lack of modern acoustics, it was a little on the noisy side. I was thrilled that the chef's daily special was Shepherds Pie. My Irish ancestory kicked in and I had the special. The Sample Room's take on Shepherd's Pie was excellent. I also had an appetizer of Gizapaco (their take on gazpacho) which was also quite good. My wife had the Reuben with fries which was also great. The service was good, the decor and atmosphere was historic and we had a great time. Would definitely stop here again.

The staff went above and beyond--from bringing the kids pizza dough to play with, buckets of toys, and a soft basketball game while we waited, to surprising them with mini cupcakes after dinner.

The bathrooms were clean, the service was exceptional, and this is one of the most family-friendly restaurants we've visited. If you're traveling with kids through Salina, this place is absolutely worth a stop!
