There was old urine in front of the urinal. The floor was generally disgusting. At least there was a hand dryer, no worries about paper towels laying about.

Important pricing note: The prices listed on the online website do not match what you may be…read morecharged. Juanita's Favorite was listed online at $10.99, but when I picked it up, we were charged $13.99. If you order over the phone, make sure to confirm the price beforehand. My husband and I decided to try Yolk House today, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. My husband ordered Juanita's Favorite, which is described as a keto-friendly omelet with ground beef, grilled onions, Monterey Jack cheese, topped with guacamole, and served with apple chicken sausage. The sausage was undercooked, the omelet appeared overcooked, and instead of guacamole, it came with just a plain slice of avocado. That substitution alone was frustrating, but paired with the quality issues, it really missed the mark. I ordered the crispy chicken burrito, described as scrambled eggs, crispy chicken, shredded cheese, and pico de gallo on a 10-inch tortilla. The burrito was poorly assembled, with large, dry chunks of chicken nuggets, overcooked eggs, and no pico de gallo at all. Instead, it had cheese sauce poured on top. The presentation was honestly unappetizing--it looked rushed and thrown together, as if a small child had made it. The aesthetics of both dishes were not appealing, which made the food even harder to enjoy. That said, the inside of the restaurant is nice, clean, and spacious, and I appreciated that they offer outdoor seating. It's the kind of place we would have enjoyed returning to once the weather warms up--if the food had matched the atmosphere. Unfortunately, due to the food quality and pricing discrepancies, we will not be returning.

I wanted to try it out with my family as I'm always looking for something new and different. We had 5 people in our party for Sunday Breakfast. It is a buffet and the price was pretty decent. They have a few cocktails available that I saw on their menu. I ordered a Bloody Mary which was ok, a little lemony for my liking, the server told me that was the 1st Bloody Mary she ever made. The buffet was not too bad, when I read the menu online it said fried chicken, but it was chicken tenders-which weren't bad, I was just expecting fried chicken. They had scrambled eggs, bacon, b&g, pancakes, diced potatoes, salad, fruit, cottage cheese, some desserts, overall the atmosphere was neat, there were large floor to ceiling windows so that you could see the runway-it actually started to down pour as soon as I got there. The staff was friendly and kept our waters/coffee filled.

I have been here several times because I want to like the food. I really do. I kept going back…read morebefore writing this because I wanted to be fair to the owner and make sure, I wasn't just catching them on an off day. Unfortunately, after multiple visits, I can confirm: it was not a fluke. It was a pattern. A very salty pattern. The good first: Every single time, the staff has been fantastic. Friendly, helpful, and honestly carrying this place on their backs. The food also comes out hot, and the restaurant is clean, which I genuinely appreciate. Breakfast The sandwich with egg, bacon, garlic aioli, and brioche bun was actually good. The egg and aioli did their best to negotiate peace with the sodium levels, and somehow it worked. The cozy rolls, when served warm, are excellent. Emphasis on warm. Once they cool off, the magic leaves the building. The sides were overall solid and pretty consistent. Lunch The meats are always well-cooked, both in texture and flavor. The burger was also cooked perfectly every time, which makes what happened next even more confusing. The sides were generally great, though the cheesy potatoes seem to spin a flavor wheel before service. One visit they were rich and creamy, the next they seemed to have lost the will to live. Now for the rough part Breakfast The breakfast is, without exaggeration, wildly salty. Not "a little heavy-handed." Not "seasoned generously." I mean "did someone drop this directly into the Dead Sea?" salty. It was the only meal I had that day because I could still taste it hours later. I wasn't digesting breakfast so much as preserving it. The redeye bacon had a good texture, but any trace of pork or coffee flavor had apparently been arrested and removed from the premises. No syrup was served to balance it out, so what you get is not that classic redeye flavor -- just a full-force sodium uppercut. I don't know if it's the brine or the cure, but wow. The biscuits and gravy were a real struggle. I usually love biscuits and gravy, but this felt less like breakfast and more like a personal challenge. I couldn't taste the sausage, there was no hot sauce available on any visit, and the only real notes coming through were salt and grease. It had visibly separated to the point that it looked like the gravy had given up. My only suggestion there would be less salt, less grease, maybe unsalted butter, and a better stir before it hits the table. Lunch The burger was cooked well, but it mostly tasted like meat wearing a tiny decorative amount of coleslaw and sauce as an accessory. It needed more flavor and more of everything on it. One extra note For those of us who used to come for the Cup of Heaven back in the day: it's not on the menu unless you Frankenstein it together yourself. I understand there's an effort to move on from the past, and I'm not trying to compare the old place to the new one. But when something was that beloved, it might be worth keeping around. Some ghosts deserve to haunt the menu. Overall, I really wanted this place to win me over. The staff is wonderful, the restaurant is clean, and there's clearly potential here. But right now, too much of the food tastes like someone in the kitchen is being paid by the grain of salt. -

This is an interesting spot in Topeka. I'm not that familiar with Topeka but there's not a whole…read morelot there except the capitol of Kansas. Searching out food gets interesting. The one question I have is why is it called The Wheel Barrel? I know a wheelbarrow, a wheel of cheese, a wine barrel, but I haven't figured out the name yet. If I make it back, maybe I can ask. The Wheel Barrel serves grill cheese/sandwiches and soup. I appreciate the concept and in this situation keeping it rather simple yet with some good selection for sandwiches and soup. I got a special wild rice and chicken soup with a half Baja turkey sandwich. It's a half and half for $12. I thought both tasted very good. I didn't eat quite all of it but I'd say it is a normal meal. Not a huge serving. I think most people would eat this in one meal. I think if I'm back in Topeka, I'll have to go back and do the traditional grilled cheese and tomato bisque! It was a busy lunch time meal. A nice size crowd was there. Service was still pretty quick. They have a rustic decor which is sort of like a wheelbarrow and a barrel. It's on a block that seems to be trying to add some art and culture to Topeka and I appreciate that a lot! If I'm back over that way, I'll stop back in and if definitely recommend it in Topeka.
