Parade of Hearts brought us into St Joe. We were hungry and saw the reviews. We love places like this...what could go wrong?!?!? Well let me start off with the fact they are over an hour away from our home. Considering they have ruined us on any and all other burger and fries, it might become a habit. Husband had the Blackberry Bacon and Blue Cheese Burger. I do not on the norm like blackberries, but on this!!!! The blackberries sweetness stands against the strong overpowering blue cheese and they meld well to make a wonderful tasting combo. I ordered There Goes My Gryo.....how did they get a freaking lamb burger, a very lean meat be that juicy!?!? I dont know but with the peppers, tomato and onion made a fresh hamburger, might be good with some kalamata olive....but I am not complaining. It was delicious. I am picky on my fries and usually dont eat the full amount restaurants serve. I had to stop myself. They are more like a shoestring but not hard or crunchy. Seasoned wonderfully! My suggestion you go in there with a big appetite, grab lots of napkins and be ready to devour the best burger you've ever had! read more

Children museum recommended this place. Good thing we came early with kids since it seems a lot of locals eat here. We split a burger and the kids shared grilled cheese. We also got soda floats which they serve ice cream and soda separately. We got to enjoy cold soda and kids enjoyed vanilla ice cream. Overall great service and ambiance. Just need to go early to get seating since pretty limited. read more

Great food cooked right before your eyes! Old time diner ambience with fresh sandwiches and friendly wait staff.

First time, got the pastrami sandwich, fries and a coke, take-out. You order on a tablet when you walk in. They were attentive to see if I needed assistance but we got it down. Placed order within 2-3 minutes of walking in. Sat down at the bar and waited. The place looked well kept and fairly busy for a Thursday afternoon. Meal was ready in less than 10 minutes and it was delicious. I would say that they are higher priced, but the portion size for the price is solid. Personally little heavy for lunch, but I might try something else little lighter next time or just come in for dinner and try a shake because they look good also! What I ordered this time was delicious and I will be back and refer! Thank you! read more

RC's Lunch Car is an excellent choice for lunch or dinner. This was our first visit but next time I am in St. Joe I will stop again. The burgers are exceptional. Handmade right in front of you and loaded with what ever you desire. Many options. They are so big they come with a knife stuck through to hold them together. The pastrami Reuben is also an excellent choice, served with beer kraut. Wonderful!! The best thing there is the home cut and wonderfully fried up french fries. The best fries I have ever had bar none. Although I did not have one the malts, shakes and floats looked wonderful and are made the old fashioned way. Hand dipped and made on an old shake machine. Go to RC's you will walk away full, happy and having supported a great hometown place. read more

Fantastic in every way. Fantastic food since just right, great service and a great atmosphere. Will definitely come again. We got the Blue Cheese & Blackberries burger which was surprisingly delicious and the Gyro Burger which was spot on. All fantastic. Well done! I highly recommend. read more

Absolulty top notch. Eat here! Service was fabulous. We were greeted at the door and had the online ordering or ordering at the kiosk explained to us. Staff was incredibly friendly. My daughter had a vanilla milkshake and the classic burger add bacon. The chicken Cesar's salad was huge. And my chicken sandwich was to die for. Can't wait to come back. read more

DELICIOUS!! Great service, great food, great atmosphere. The burgers are huge. We tried the early riser and Triple B burgers. The Triple B burger was perfectly portioned with blackberry, bacon and blue cheese. We switched out the ham for bacon on the early riser and it was so good. The French fries were the star of the show. So hot, perfectly crispy, and so many in the portion. We decided to indulge in a s'mores milkshake; another delicious item on the menu. It's a little pricy for burger and fries but definitely worth it!! read more

A gem in the downtown area! St Joe is looking lucky to have RC's! Daily lunch specials plus their standout favorites like the Ruben and shrimp tacos with just enough kick to keep us coming back! read more

Me and my uncle dropped in and had bbq pork tacos. Wow! Dee-licious!! I give them my highest recommendation.

The food is fantastic. When you first get there, it has kind of a 60's diner vibe, and it seemed like a greasy spoon. We thought it might be a mistake. But, the service was prompt and friendly, and the reviews were great, so we decided to give it a go. I had the BBB burger, based on the Yelp reviews and though I was skeptical about the black berries, it was probably the best bleu burger I've ever had. Fries were just okay. The ladies in our group both got Rueben's and raved about them. Bottom line, atmosphere is okay at best, but the food is out of this world, and the service is good too. read more

I cannot tell you how much I loved the Bourbon Bacon Blue burger! The meat was cooked perfectly medium so it was juicy and tender. The grilled onions were delightful and tasty. The bacon was plentiful and crispy. The blue cheese was warm and melty. The bun was fresh. I licked each finger of every bit of juice. And those fries were hot and crispy with the perfect amount of salt. The homemade ketchup is **amazing If I could give this 6 stars, I would. read more

the food is so good it's stupid!! Lamb burger was off the chart! Homemade ketchup. The fries were so crispy! Good background music. Waitstaff were super friendly. I only wish i were closer so I could come back sooner. read more

This is an old school diner with an updated twist. The food was amazing! I'm a sucker for the Ruben and it did not let me down.

This is a diner setting with a walkup counter to order. So the food was good. I had the lamb gyro which was made to perfection. The French fries were shoestring type but over fried. The chocolate milkshake was old fashion and delicious served with the extra on the side still in the steel blender. Now here is the reason I won't go back. The smell of the grease from the cooktops and friers was so strong that I had to strip all my clothes as soon as I got home. My husband's clothes were still in the closet the next day and I could still smell the grease. They need to figure out a way to vent more effectively. read more

Great food with unique options. I've been here a couple times and have never been disappointed.

today is saturday and this restaurant says they are open until 8pm, however that's not true. i have tried several attempts to locate this business phone number, can't find it anywhere. then placed an order only to find out that they are closed, even though it's suppose to be open until 8pm. not good business, they need to update their website and hours. read more

I had the Reuben. Amazing flavor. You order on a screen when you walk in. The ketchup they gave me for the fries tasted like they made it there, really good, almost like a marinara. Sandwich, drink and fries was $19.34. I would eat here again. read more

One of the best burger we've ever had. Husband and I were driving through back to KC and went here on a whim since it was so highly rated. The reviews don't lie, this is a gem. Everyone is greeted like returning friends upon coming in. It's decorated like an old diner but just like their menu it's updated and modern. Husband requested no tomatoes and they made sure to ask if it wasn't allergy. He had the classic burger and malt and I had the cubano. We will be making a special trip back up to try more of the menu! read more

RC’s Lunch Car - Cubano - Sandwiches Near Me - Saint Joseph, Missouri

My wife and I have now eaten here 3 times, eating something different each time. I have had a Cubano sandwich, Pastrami Ruben sandwich, shrimp tacos, and french fries. I have also tried some of my wife's chicken tacos. Everything I have eaten has been outstanding. The seating area is simple with some tables and a counter that allows you to watch your delicious meal being prepared. Everyone that works there is helpful and friendly. This is a must stop for anyone who is hungry for some great food. read more

Wow! You can't find better food and friendlier, faster service than RC's Lunch Car! We'd had RC's delivered to The Den a while back. The Cubano was delicious and I can't recall what my husband had. Anyway, tonight we wanted to go somewhere new-to-us and casual. RC's fit the bill. As soon as we sat down, the owner(?) came over to explain how to order. It was difficult to decide, as everything sounded delicious. I got the BLTA and fries (best fries I've had in years). Lots of bacon, wheat toast, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, and avocado (no mayo--ew). It was a giant sandwich and perfect in every way. The fries, again, were great--shoestring variety and salted to perfection. My husband had the Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich, which I snuck a bite of. It was so flavorful. He was good and got a side salad, which was nice and fresh. And he somehow snuck a vanilla malt in there. He loved that malt. You can't get malts many places, and usually they skimp on the malt powder. This was legit! The service was outstanding. Super friendly people who very clearly want you to enjoy your meal. They ask how things are, they're smiling and pleasant, they're just the best! We can't wait to become regulars at RC's when we move up north soon!! read more

A real Yelp find. We split the lamb burger and a salad. The burger was perfectly done, juicy and a little pink. Wonderful feta cheese sauce. And the roll was perfect. The salad was good fresh and green with a tasty smoked tomato vinaigrette. After seeing the fries, I regret not ordering them. Highly recommend this place! BTW , I'm pretty serious about food! read more

Took the family, this was a great restaurant, great food, great service, I would highly recommend it

The service is excellent. At first glance prices seemed on the high side for a burger and fries. Then I got my order. Prices are fine. Burger was nice and thick cooked perfectly with a touch of pink left. Huge amount of fries. Also have several old pictures of downtown st Joe. Only negative is the place is small and you will probably smell like a diner when you leave. read more

Excellent food! We all had something different: chicken bacon ranch, basic burger, fish tacos, and pork tacos. The fries had and nice spice and the milkshakes were delicious. read more
