Great food!!!!!! Hamburgers, and Fries!!! Love that place! Service was good. Its been around a long time that tells ya something!! read more

Nice place to go for drinks and dinner with a group of friends. Needs better parking.

The food (burgers and homemade chips) was great, absolutely no complaint with that. However, we are an older couple, and go there for an early lunch about once or twice a month, and the last few times, there were loud, cursing drunks at the bar. Doesn't make for a good dining experience, and most of the older customers there, were uncomfortable as well. Doubt we will be back. read more

The waitresses and bartenders here are top tier. Hands down best service I've had at a bar an grill in Wichita! Tonya and Alicia to be specific! Philly steak with nacho cheese is a different breed! Damn good sandwich. read more

Oasis Lounge - "O" burger with fries - Dive Bars Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Nice hometown hangout! Awesome O burger (probably one of my all time favorites. Cool laidback atmosphere!

Great place for a Burger, house cut French fries and especially their fried mushrooms. Play some shuffleboard or a game of pool. It's s Jim Beam and Jack Daniels place, not where you find Basil Hayden or Willet. read more

I took my wife in today for lunch after a Very good prior visit. Lunch time is VERY VERY VERY BAD. The waitress with major tattoes acted like we were bothering her-rude-stuck up. The widow maker burger REQUIRED a knife & fork to eat it-bun was soggy & fell apart-sausage was burnt- bacon burnt. Wifes BLT-lettuce stale-bacon burnt-onion rings oily as could be. Wife pointed out that this place is hiring VIA Indeed.com for a kitchen manager at $20 hr & cook at $13 hr. They sure NEED BOTH. They need a FOH Manager as well. They must not like Veterans/Military as I was wearing my Old Unit Ballcap & Unit T-shirt-clear to see I'm a Veteran. They also must NOT like strangers as well. WILL NOT BE COMING BACK or RECOMMENDING. read more

Ashley was the waitress today and was great! Fast service, food has always been good. Will be back for sure!

Best bar food in Wichita. They make an amazing cheeseburger that uses a grilled sandwich as each side of the bun! Fanfrickentastic! And seriously the most amazing fries. The atmosphere is nice and service is good. Take a hungry friend with you to split the meal and don't wear your tight jeans because you're going to need room for all this food. But it's soooo worth it!! read more

Terrible! I don't know why their claim of Wichita's best burger. I highly doubt that. We 1st got there, we were apprehended by a waitress after being there for about 3 min, and seating ourselves. No salutations of a welcome. Instead, all we got was, is there 2 or dining alone? (Right after my friend had gone to the car for his phone). So I informed her it was 2. She was very hostile. Lady, you're in the customer relations field, how about a friendly atitude? Nope. She asked what we wanted to drink... 2 waters. But when she came back with the waters I had no idea what to order so I told her I wasn't ready. After waiting 10 min for her to come back I had to approach her and tell her I was ready. Obviously we had given indications that we were ready 8 minutes ago, such as putting the menu at the end of our table. Looking around is another form of "hey, we're looking for a waitress". She came to the table got our order in a hurry and not even any questions of what else we would like or how would we like our burgers. I didn't mind another 15 minute wait for "Wichita's best burger", but when it came out the fries were room temperature. No seasoning. The burger was okay. Nothing special. But never once did we see our waitress for another 20 mins. During this whole time she never asked us how was our burger, how were the non-salted bland fries, or even to refill our drinks. I get it that new years Eve was the night before, but if you don't want to wait tables than maybe this job isn't for you. I Definitely will NOT return nor recommend. The food was not hot but bland, the atmosphere was old and dingy like an old musky wood paneled mobile home. The waitress was like a cold abandoned well. Go to Douglas for some of Wichita's better burgers. read more

See all

Food and drinks are great. Love the Oasis.!! With that said, when you're in your 50s and you're looking for that someone special to spend the rest of your life with don't lose your phone at the Oasis. Someone will try to eff everything up for you by texting your lady friends vulgar disturbing cheating texts. Hope it wasn't staff read more

I came to Oasis to try a burger and left with other favorites. The burger is good. Seasoned. Homemade. Juicy. I have mine without a bun and loved it. The fries here are made fresh. Don't expect crispy. Expect TASTY. Do not get the to-go. They will not be good if you do not eat them fresh. The fried pickle chips came from a food service (I asked). Amazingly, whatever company makes these little frozen-then-fried treat put a touch of ground caraway seed in the breading. Genius. Caraway is a classic marriage with sour kraut, so it only makes sense to work with pickles. I will be back. Good stuff. read more

One waitress.. Likes to talk, rather than run drinks and food! Ordered a draft beer, had 2 inches of head with black specks which I assume was pepper. Asked for a new beer and she looked at it like I was seeing stuff. Cook came out of kitchen into freezer with gloves on, the same gloves he is cooking our food with I'm sure! Can't wait to eat cross contaminated food!! read more

Oasis Lounge - Fried pickles, fried mushrooms! - Dive Bars Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

I have been to Oasis Lounge a couple of different times and it has always been amazing. Their cheeseburgers are absolutely off the hook. The staff is great and the drinks are excellent! read more

Oasis Lounge has been voted amongst the "10 Best Burgers in America 1989" according to USA Today, and it recently topped the poll for The Eagle's Reader's Choice 2010 for best burger. More importantly, I had a Groupon, and those things don't stay good forever, you know. This certainly wouldn't be my first choice for watering holes at 10:30 on a Saturday night, but in the middle of the day with the doors open to enjoy the sunshine, you don't smell as much of the smoke that has permeated the very essence of every nook and cranny of the place. It was the weekend, so I decided to let my hair down a little bit and go crazy - I demanded that my cheeseburger be topped with chili. Then I politely requested I also have a half order of fried cauliflower. The 1/2 lb burger was well-seasoned, though leaner than I would have liked - there was a bit of chew in the back molars, but nothing too bad. The patty was a bit undercooked too, as I noticed a bit of pink (oddly not in the center of the patty). Personally, the only time I think less than medium is an appropriate cooking temperature for a burger is when they grind the meat on the premises, which I highly doubt is the case here. At least they're aiming to not cook the bejeezus out of it, which is admirable. The rest of the burger was by the number just like so many places in Wichita - pickles, onions, chopped lettuce, plain white bun. Nothing standing out there. I like the chili, even if I suspect it was lending a bit of its seasoning to the overall burger. Mostly meat, the only way it could have been better is if it was ALL meat, because any chili purist can tell you that the only true way to enjoy the dish is without all of those silly beans ruining the party. Again, like most of Wichita's burger restaurants, the fries are freshly cut, but are greasy and soft. I was so frustrated with how many places around here can't seem to grasp how to make a proper fry, that I dug out my deep fryer, cut some potatoes, and confirmed that it was indeed as easy as I thought it was. YUP: Look, all you have to do is fry them at 325 degrees for 5-6 minutes to cook them, take them out, crank the oil up to 375 and put them back in to make them crispy. Easy. These particular fries were undercooked to where I still tasted a little bit of raw potato, but I chalk that up to the lunch rush that was transpiring during my visit. The undercooked patty was probably a victim of this, too. Oasis Lounge falls into that category that so many of Wichita's burger restaurant are falling - fine burger, ordinary toppings, fresh-but-flawed-fries - and I can't tell them apart. It's just another day eating burgers in Wichita. read more

I have been visiting this place off and on for years, was pretty much a regular stop on Fridays after work when I lived in the ICT, but that was long ago. I absolutely love the burgers, fries are good too, just sometimes a bit saturated, but tasty for sure. However, I am not giving the 4 stars for the food, but for the wonderful, friendly little dive bar that it is, and it is the same as it ever was. It just takes me back to memories of the past, as I remember some fantastic times with some fantastic friends...I just wonder what they are all doing now? read more

Eh, not sure why this place was hyped up to be one of Wichita's best. Burgers weren't juicy nor did it taste like it was seasoned. Mac n cheese bites tasted like Kraft Mac N Cheese. Fries were bland. Home made chips were okay. Waitress was yelling across the place talking to other customers. Ours left in the middle of our meal and someone else had to help our table. I'm glad this was crossed off my Wichita bucketlist but I don't think I'll be back. Go somewhere else for better tasting burgers. read more

Good old fashioned burger. I did wish it was a little less meatball shaped but at least i felt like it was handmade on site. It is a big burger so don't for a second think about getting a double (I'm not sure how they would stack them). Their fried fare is also very good, cauliflower, mushrooms, and more. read more

Always good drink specials, always good people no confrontational people, the bartenders are just about perfect, there's good food before 10 pm and they have plenty of TVs for sports, watch 12 hours of football here once and never got old, that should tell you everything you need to know! read more

Oasis Lounge - Tower of mix drinks! - Dive Bars Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

I'd like to point out that I eat mostly vegan/vegetarian when I'm at home, and when I go out to restaurants, I try to find healthier options. I have tried Oasis on two occasions, and one of those times was before I ate vegan/vegetarian. That being said, my review will be a little biased based on my last visit to Oasis... I received a credit for a "free" groupon, and the only option during that time was for Oasis Lounge. My husband and I had tried it about a year before (also because we had a groupon) and we weren't too impressed, but I thought, hey...the groupon is free. When my husband and I went the first time, it appeared to be a little dive bar with not too great of service and typical dive bar fare (mostly fried options, homestyle type of food - chicken fried steak, etc). I don't remember what we ordered, but the beer was good! It didn't leave too much of an impression on either of us though, and my husband was reluctant to go with me again. My friend and I decided to go for lunch to use my free groupon, and as we were waiting for our waitress...a cockroach crawled across our table. Not on the floor. On the table. I, of course, made an embarrassing screeching noise and brushed the bug off the table with a menu. A manly looking man came and stepped on the bug, and that was that. After that, I was a little grossed out, but whatever. As for the food: I ordered a beer, which was not too bad of a price (it was lunchtime). Both of us ordered salads and shared an order of fried pickles. The pickles were pretty good, but standard. The salads were what I was expecting, white leaves of iceberg and limp looking lettuce with shredded cheese and croutons. Mine had grilled (kind of) chicken that had some sort of marinade/sauce on it that was a little bit teriyaki flavored. The salads were overpriced for what they were, but again...the pickles were good. The service was okay...she wasn't too attentive, and when I pulled out my groupon, she told me it had expired. I've had this issue at a couple of restaurants now, and I'm not sure if it's groupon's mess up or the restaurants, but either way she let it slide and gave me my credit. Both times I have gone to Oasis, the atmosphere was a little strange. Kind of like walking into a small town bar where everyone knows each other and they all look up at you, wondering who the hell you are. That's the vibe I got both times...but once I sat down I didn't care too much. I guess if I were to sum this all up, I'd say - if you're looking for a burger or typical fried bar food while you have a beer, by all means visit Oasis. If you're looking for something else...I'd try one of the millions of other bars or local restaurants in Wichita that offer more choices and better service. read more

Best burger bar in town. Drinks are cold and cheap. Burgers are the best in town, no exaggeration! They have free wifi, a shuffleboard, 2 pool tables, and a heated patio. I skip the coffee shops and go to this bar to study for classes. Happy hour from 3-6 doesn't hurt either. read more

Good food, decent price, little small for how many people can pack the place at times

Great burgers and 1554 beer on tap. Home cut fries and homemade chips are a favorite too.

Oasis Lounge is more than your run of the mill pool halls. They have absolutely one of the best burgers in Wichita. I usually get the single cheeseburger as that is more than enough. It's a pretty thick patty that barely extends past the bun. Fries are homemade, none of that frozen stuff. It takes a little while as they make everything fresh but it is well worth the wait. Highly recommended. read more

The Burgers are GREAT! I always get the single cheeseburger with a side of fresh cut fries. I believe the Oasis Lounge Burger to be one of the best in town. They're really juice with great flavor. It takes a while for them to prepare an order but they're worth the wait. And you can always play pool, watch "the game", or play various kinds of lotto while you wait. The waiting staff is excellent and all around good people. There's nothing like an Oasis Burger and a cold beer, to help you slip into your own personal oasis. Cheesy...I know...Mmmm, cheese. read more

Once voted one of the 10 best burgers in America, the Oasis continues to be a solid place to grab a burger and a cold beer. Though the tap selection is limited, they always keep a decent variety of bottled beer. read more

Had the best burger ever right here in Wichita Ks. The fries were fresh and the service was prompt. I will return soon!

I had my 80s themed 30th birthday party here last year and I really enjoyed it. The manager bought me a few drinks personally and they put my name up on the marquee. I had a blast. read more

Really good juicy burger. Really so-so fries-but super hot! Beer OK, bathrooms have been improved so not as nasty as in the past, doors were opened so not as smoky as it could have been later in the evening, some guys hanging out and eating while chatting with what I think was a lady of the evening on her lunch break was entertaining. Tables were dirty but the waitress did come and clean it off for us after she complained that we just had to sit at the dirty table. News flash-they were all dirty. But the burger was really good! read more

Kind of a hole in the wall place, but it does live up to having one of the best burgers in town. Especially for the price, you get a burger of that size and caliber with fries for around six dollars. I haven't tried anything else on the menu (why would you?) and it's not a place I would want to drink. However, whenever I'm around the area and want a burger I will pick it over the other places in the area every time. read more

Great service thought the garage door smokers patio was pretty cool mammoth sized sandwiches.

I have been a customer of this establishment for years. However, things have changed;so I feel as though it is necessary to write a review. Very inconsistent quality of burgers...first burned, then not done at all. Still the worst fries in town; soggy and totally unable to eat. Next the service: once was friendly and prompt. No longer! I guess the fact that I had my African American daugher-in law with us on both of the past visits, makes me realize how much this establishment values cultural diversity. NOT! I am so disappointed in what has happened to one of the best burger joints in town has just slid down the down with the rest of their grease. I would never recommend this "so called - best burger joint, to anyone. I personally, sit on many civic and cultural boards in our city and will be sharing this information with all, when the opportunity arises. read more
