As someone that will take all of the Hispanic grocery stores this town can give us, I stumbled by…read moreaccident today onto Casa Azteca Market, tucked way back in the corner of the plaza area best known for hosting the big 23rd Street Ace Hardware, an oriental market, a bank, several pizza delivery joints serving the college crowd, and arguably the best sushi destination in the city: Nagoya Japanese Cuisine. Yep, that's reason to pull the car into the big parking area this area provides. The store carries most of the things you'd expect in a small Hispanic grocery of this size, but here's what got my attention: they have plans to open a street style taqueria with sit-down service in the next few months. Now THAT I can get behind. Chatted up a couple people working and they seem to know their stuff, planning to have tripas, pastor, lingua, barabacoa... the good stuff. The store also carries a mini assortment of home needs for the medicine cabinet as well, handy for some of the apartment buildings behind this complex, assuming they ever discover it. Asprin/Advil, toiletries, etc. With the plethora of pizza delivery joints in this complex, you'd think they'd discover it. Yea, maybe not. PIcked up some hot chilis, mayocobas and a Mexican soft drink. Big spender. Enjoyed the people working here, now keeping an eye out for that taqueria when it opens. If you come: it's in the far corner from both entrances. Credit cards accepted, including American Express.

The pork is sourced locally - had loin grilled perfectly with a nice glaze as part of a Saturday night summer special incorporating church cookbook recipes and family recipes. I got a gorgeous Asian slaw, potato casserole cornflake topping and zucchini casserole. Dessert was apple crisp à la mode. All for a good price. You can fish a beer you like out of the cooler of ice. Steaks and hamburgers are grilled to order on an outside grill. The cook is passionate about all of the food and stopped to talk to us. The waitress is running around and also very knowledgeable about food. Give her grace when it gets busy. We had a great conversation with Charlie at the cash register who explained the origin of the restaurant and what they've been doing recently. It is very casual.

I was ecstatic to find a local joint so close to the beach with cold beer and plenty of ice!…read more Staff was so friendly and you could spend an afternoon in here chatting it up. Prices were not terribly cheap but super convenient if you forget anything while on the beach! Check out their FB page for weekly meal option and beer specials!

The restaurant is inside a convenience store with tables for you to dine. You walk in and they take your order at the counter and prepare it to your specifications. They are always friendly and helpful. I get the falafel bowl every time I go but they offer different bowls, sandwiches and so much more, everything is tasty, fresh and affordable!!!

The food was excellent. Got a falafel wrap, Gyro, and chicken shwarma. Price is right as well. I…read morewill be back.

That being said, despite some wear and tear, it's still a very solid gas station, and they've added some modern QT additions to it, like QT kitchen, which makes it little extra nice when you are on the road. This location has seen me through my college days, and honestly still is my go-to when I'm in and around Lawrence and in need of gas. On my most recent visit, I was driving home from a family gathering in Manhattan, and we all treated ourselves to little milkshakes. Honestly they are really decent little treats for a gas station. In addition to that, the restrooms are clean, and it's a decent little stop.

Been stopping here for years. They always have clean bathrooms and cold sodas and Iced Tea.

Now if we could only find a QT on a road trip in other states.

You gotta have groceries and you have to have gas, right? This is the perfect place for both. I…read morelove the store and this gas station is great, too. I was wedded to the Dillons system because I liked their fuel savers program. But I started shopping more and more at HyVee. It just made sense to start getting my gas there, too. The HyVee Fuel Savers program is not as good overall as the one at Dillons, though. HyVee gives you rewards on only certain items you buy. Dillons gives rewards on how much money you spend at the store. Don't get me wrong- there have been some great savings at HyVee. The difference in the programs is slight. The cashiers and staff are very friendly and the store is all sparkly clean. They also have convenience store pizza!! It's a favorite. Great pizza, price-is-right gas, and great customer service.

Anyone else notice that this gas station stays at about $.10 higher than everywhere else. Hy vee…read moreboasts their fuel points and they are the highest price grocery store in town. So they're gouging you for groceries and then bending you over for gas!
