    Great food! We snowed right at closing time, hungry. The tacos and burritos received high praise from everyone!

    The best food truck in Holton and the best authentic Mexican food you can find in the area. Always consistent and delicious.

    The Little Grill - Double Chocolate Rum Cake

    I've been fortunate enough to live in major cities in the US, which of course means I've been…read moreblessed with a variety of different cuisines from all over the world. Jamaica, naturally, is no exception, so I don't usually get truly wowed by one of my favorite dishes, Jerk Chicken, when I order it at a new restaurant. Until today. If there was a definition for hole in the wall restaurants, it would be The Little Grill. Blink and you'll drive right by it. But once you come inside, you're greeted by the owner with a smile and a warm welcome. My server (I believe he said Bert, but I could be wrong) was so very kind, and did a great job recommending items from the menu. Which leads me to the Rum Punch. And a punch it certainly has, in the best way possible. So many times you drink a Rum Punch in the US it's overly sweet and watered down that you lose the flavor of the rum. Not here. Seriously, I'm from Denver where even in a bigger city it's hard to find a rum punch prepared the right way, but I'm sitting here in the middle of Kansas having one of the best Rum Punches I've tasted. Not in Kansas City, but just outside of Manhattan (the little apple, not the big one!) The drink was nice and fruity without being too sweet, and a nice kick from the rum. 10/10. Then we have the grilled chicken leg and pork chop combo (you can order it with jerk sauce or bbq sauce... but you have to get the jerk sauce) that was out of this world. Great taste of the bbq flavor and the sauce is incredible. Add a dash of their house made hot sauce (I'm not 100% sure but pretty sure they use scotch bonnet peppers in one of their sauces which is the only way to make hot sauce) and you've got an amazing Jamaican meal. Again, in the middle of land-locked Kansas. I was pretty stuffed after dinner (14.50 for all that food is an insanely good deal) so I ordered a second Rum Punch (what can I say, it was that good) and a slice of their daily house made dessert which today was a double chocolate rum cake slice or a carrot cake slice. I'm sure both are delicious but naturally I opted for the rum cake and have no doubt it'll be the perfect end to the day. I can say without certainty that I'm the only out of towner here. Everyone I see who walks inside knows the owner very well, and it's clear that the owner and her partner have amazing ties to the Manhattan community. But whether you're a local Kansan or passing through town for the university or on business, please make The Little Grill a stop. This is truly an unexpected gem in the heart of cattle country that seriously can't be missed.

    First time coming here after coming down to visit from KC for father's day and unfortunately I ate…read moretoo fast to get any pictures but WOW! I underestimated this place. The gumbo, cornbread, fried fish, and jerk chicken was some of the best jamaican I've had in a longgg time! It would've been nice to have some collard greens or plantains but the cooking here is incredible and the service was even better. The staff was friendly, the place was clean, they had live music playing. I definitely recommend driving out and trying this place. Also big shout out to our server, Eli, he's an incredible server and is half the reason we had such a great experience! We will definitely be back!

    We are visiting from out of state, and Blind Tiger was highly recommended to us by the gift shop…read moreattendant at the History Museum. The building is a cool old building with a vintage vibe. Service was a bit slow, and we were disappointed to find they were out of barbecue for the day. However, the food overall was good (albeit pricey), and the beer was excellent. I had the fish and chips with a side of creamed spinach and it was flavorful. Others at my table enjoyed the fettuccine Alfredo, wings, and burgers. I appreciate that the server provided a free dessert after spilling a water on one of our diners. Overall, I would return, though I have some qualms after reading some other reviews, particularly relating to hygiene.

The chicken however was like rubber. I ate half a small piece and put the rest to the side. My husband had the Pulled Pork platter which is normally good. The meat was really dry. I ate all the pasta and told our server about the chicken being like rubber and she stated that she's mentioned that exact thing to the cooks but that maybe if a customer complains they would possibly listen. What made me a little annoyed though was that I ate none of the chicken yet they didn't at least bump off a few bucks off my meal. The service was fine but I feel like over the years this has become my last choice versus my first choice.
