    Double cheeseburger with Suzy q's
    David L.

    Stopped in here during lunch time, the place was busy. I was able to get the last seat at the bar at the time. The one waitress working was on top of it. Top notch service!! Even with the place packed she was getting drinks, delivering food, getting tickets out and checking up on people with very little wait. The food came out relatively quickly, and was a good size order of burger and fries. The burger reminds me of when I was able to get a good roadside burger, I believe the only thing that was missing was a pie display. The front window says they have a car show on the 3rd Saturday of the Month. A car show with the burger shack would make a great way stop spend a Saturday!!

    Great drive in stop! Nostalgic feel, good food and fast service. Price was reasonable and we were in and out fast. Definitely would try again, burgers and fries were all good, corn nuggets definitely an interesting new try

    It's not the most comfortable place to sit and eat but the staff is great and our burgers and fries and onion rings really good!

    Very good restaurant! We were a little confused walking into the place seeing Diametric Brewing…read moreeverywhere instead of Burn Theory but quickly figured out how it worked. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. Bartenders were friendly. The chefs/food runners were cool as well. The patio was nice to sit out on and over look the pond out back. The food was really good too! I'd recommend the shrimp po boy and brussel sprouts. We'll definitely be back

    I'm not sure what to say after reading all the reviews on here... I'm left wondering... were we in…read morea parallel universe or something‽‽‽ We stopped in after an appointment I'd had on a Monday in Lees Summit. We decided to have a quick early dinner here in town, and did a Yelp search for "great places to eat near me". This place was high in the list. We read the reviews and found ourselves driving around a building that had ZERO markings for the Burn Theory Fire Kitchen on it, but our Maps app said we were here. Turned out, the food for Burn Theory Fire Kitchen was cooked in a food truck in a parking lot and served inside the Diametric Brewing Company which is located at the address listed for Burn Theory Fire Kitchen. I will say, my husband ordered a special beer called "Cherry Street Wheat" and it was very unusual, and seriously tasty!!! I'm not a beer fan, but would drink one of these any day! So, getting back to the food... we'd both ordered a trio of street tacos that we did a mix and match of with their various proteins. We ordered this way to share with each other. We also love to discover new and unusual bites. After reading the reviews and their menu, we were excited for the promise of something uniquely delicious... and were completely disappointed!!! All but one (excluding the shrimp) of the six different tacos we'd ordered, bordered on the inedible side. The proteins were seemingly overcooked, folded into little leathery tortilla shells, and served to our table cold, dry and tough. They tasted as if they had been reheated from the weekends leftovers. Maybe we came on the wrong day. Perhaps if we'd visited on a weekend, or on the same day they were actually cooking the meats initially, we'd had a better experience. I don't know, and frankly do not plan to find out. Additionally, to be fair, their condiments (ie: the Ketchup and BBQ sauce) seemed to be made fresh and made from scratch. They were sadly the best part of our meal. Honorable mention to the Diametric Brewing Company which served us one of the most delicious and unique beers we've ever tasted!

    I've been to Wally's a multitude of times, and every single visit has been amazing. The food is…read moreconsistently delicious, service is always friendly and accommodating, and everything comes out incredibly fast. Most of my orders have been curbside pickup since it's right around the corner from my house, and the process has always been quick and seamless. Let me tell you about the Great Salmon Caper Sandwich. A soft, pillowy brioche bun, flaky grilled salmon, fresh lettuce, tomato, and onion, topped with a creamy, tangy aioli. It is quite literally one of the best salmon sandwiches I've ever had. When I say I'll never get sick of this sandwich, I mean it. It's a genuine 10/10 and one of the main reasons I keep coming back. The Cluckers are also excellent and come with an absurd amount of food. My only complaint is that the chicken pieces can sometimes be so large that the chicken-to-breading ratio feels a little off. Other than that, they're fantastic. The breading is seasoned perfectly, the chicken is juicy, and the price is extremely affordable for the portion size. The homemade honey mustard is also some of the best I've ever had and is easily my favorite dipping sauce on the menu. Wally's is one of those places that never disappoints. Fast service, affordable prices, generous portions, and consistently great food make it an easy recommendation.

    Flower Drop martini was the perfect refreshing cocktail to sip on. The St. Germaine liquor paired…read morewell. I got the That's a Wrap (chicken cluckers). It was good, however I think the wrap was missing the avocado ranch dressing so once I asked for that on the side, it really made it. Sweet potato fries with honey mustard always hit the spot.

    My family came in on a random weekday around 1:30. We had a party of four and were sat right away…read more We ordered drinks and the armadilla eggs. Not really sure what to expect. As transplants from another state, and BBQ not being our first language, we wanted to try new things! They came to the table and we were all sort of perplexed. Were they supposed to look like...that? Either way, we dug in. They were cold in the middle, also a strange discovery to us. I ordered the burnt ends, which came to the table closer to cold than warm. The blue cheese potato salad was tasty and all it needed was a lil salt and pepper to make it perfect. All was going well, until my husband was about 4-5 bites into his brisket wrap. He asked me to smell it, and I did. It was funky! Smelled a lot like a foot and not a lot like a tortilla. He asked the server to smell it and they agreed it was a bit odd. The manager came over and denied it smelling like anything. My husband had finished his meal, and we weren't looking for a freebie but wanted to let them know it was a lil weird. Instead of acknowledging the potential issue, we were dismissed as "wrong." It just didn't sit right with me. My husband had some definite issues in the hour or two after eating, so we won't be back. I won't say it was food poisoning because genuinely it could have just not agreed with my husband. I'll put my disclaimer on here, I hope people do enjoy and continue to patronize this small business, it's just not to my liking.
