This is the the place. And it's been the place for a very, very long time. It even predates me and…read moreI'm nearly prehistoric at this point. The parking lot is... interesting, but there's generally more than enough spots. The drive thru is tightly wrapped by the street, but is easy enough to get into. The decor is perfectly average. There's nothing eye popping, except for the old original pricing on some boards in the back. The food itself, from the namesake burgers to the tenderloin sandwiches to the fries and onion rings; everything is just good and priced well. It's not Culver's level elite, but it's a nice step up from the McDonald's of the world. It comes out hot and is always right. The staff is always friendly and they move quickly. So if you're in the neighborhood and need a quick lunch or dinner, it's worth stopping in.

On the quest to find the best burger in Kansas City, I tested Mugs-Up Rood Beer, and it honestly…read moredid quite well. Mugs-Up is a small burger spot with no seating inside and NO DRIVE THRU, which I find charming. It harkens back to the 50s when it was first opened and even has a neon sign that looks great at night. But the whole visit here was about the burger, and while they don't have bacon here, the burger was unique in that it wasn't a patty. They continued that uniqueness by using Velveeta instead of American cheese. Strangely enough though, it only added to this old burger joint's charm. This ground meat and Velveeta burger knows what it is and is happy with that. And while I didn't love their own in-house root beer, the fries were decent crinkle cut and the rest of the experience was good enough that I definitely see myself coming back again.

While they were enjoyable it did blow my mind. Cheeseburger was definitely good. Meat was cooked well and bun was nice and warm. Toppings were evenly distributed as well. Why the deduction of stars is fries were nothing special. The shake was most likely pre made and then set in the freezer instead of mixed on order. I think this is a definite try and a great place to love especially if you are local to KC area.

I decided to stop in and try it on a day off. I ordered the KC BBQ bubble waffle with chicken and the cinnamon shake. I can't remember the name but it had Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and caramel! It was delicious!! The chicken was really tender and the waffle was good though I will get the regular waffle next time as the bubble waffle got really soggy quickly. Overall, I would go again and keep trying items from the menu. Check it out!

Hi-Boy is a small burger spot with no seating inside and NO DRIVE THRU, which I find charming. It harkens back to the 50s when it was first opened and even has a neon sign that looks great at night. But the whole visit here was about the burger, and while they don't have bacon here, the burger was cooked to perfection. With just a bit of char around the edges for a crunch and a flavorful and juicy middle of the patty would've been enough to get a great review. But Hi-Boy also makes an AMAZING French fry that I couldn't get enough of. This spot is a very long drive from my house, but that's not going to stop me from visiting again and again.

If social media existed in the 1980's then this Hi-Boy would have hundreds of 'check-ins" from me…read more I used to work just a couple of miles from here for about a decade and I was regularly here to destroy their daily specials or my favorite - the Double Hi-Boy Jr. with rings. An inside walk up counter without any seating on the premises, is one of the reasons my visits have been infrequent over the past 35 years. I usually head to one of their two other locations now so I don't have to eat in my vehicle. This past Saturday i did stop in and order a tenderloin, since i am in the middle of "Ralphie's Tenderloin Tour" with 12 tenderloins under my belt (figuratively and literally) in the past month. Unfortunately their breaded pork tenderloin is mass produced and frozen, so it did not make it close to the top tier in my rankings, but for what it is ...it ain't bad. I did like that they put plenty of veggie toppings and their burger sauce on it for maximum taste. I'll probably stick with the burgers on all future visits. 3.5 stars for the tendy... 5 stars for the burgers, rings, cyclones, variety and value of the menu, and of course the decades of nostalgia and fond memories.

This…read moreone however is right off the highway and it should be a pretty busy location since Whataburger is newer to the area. Upon answering this place is definitely new. However it was also very empty there were no customers inside, I waited 5 minutes for staff to come up and to be greeted. Staff didn't seem too interested in taking my order. I ordered my burger, I got the number 11 Burger and it turned out pretty good. However the lady in front of me she just got a drink but she didn't pay for it which I thought was strange. My major con with this place is something that Whataburger possibly can't control but there's a lot of homeless around the building and a fellow came up by my vehicle when I took my bird into the car and tried pleading me for money but he was loitering around the Whataburger the whole time and when he went away as well as some other people in his situation, they all moved to the car wash next door and it kind of brings down wanting to eat here or go here either if you got these people just lingering around possibly becoming a Target. I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned that in their reviews, overall wouldn't recommend
