50 Best American Restaurants near Mcconnell Air Force Base

“Not too shabby of a chow hall. Portions are a bit on the light side but the kid cooking says its because not many people eat here so they dont want to waste food. He hooked me up with double rats. I told him Im a retired guy my days of running PFT's are done hahahaha. Clean facility. Wifi. Clean bathrooms. Cant ask for much more. Beats the heck out of some facilities Ive seen over the years. Anyone can eat here. If you can get on base you can scarf.“

“Had a fantastic dinner with my family this evening!! All the staff were friendly and accommodating and not only were all of our meals so delicious, the dessert was top notch!! Everything was cooked to perfection. Best Salmon Salad I’ve ever had in my life!! Good job, Wichita Red Rock!! The manager, Veronica, was so nice and checked on us, and our server, Drew, was on top of everything. We had a great evening. Bonus: good ranch dressing!!“

“Your new gluten free crust is the best I’ve ever had!!!! 10/10!!!“

“FMK knocked it out of the park today for Mother’s Day brunch. Everyone we encountered was so friendly and the food was a 10/10. Even though they didn’t have a dedicated kid’s menu, my boys split the pancake combo and it was perfect for them to share. We also tried the lobster eggs benedict and the Korean steak & eggs- both amazing! Their breakfast potatoes are fantastic as well.

Our server was great and went out her way to help us enjoy our brunch with two small boys (not easy!) by bringing our food out quickly and staying on top of refills. We appreciated being able to get in and out, but they weren’t rushing tables either. Just a great experience all around!“

“Discovered Metro Bistro several years ago. I’m from Topeka & come to Andover/Wichita frequently & Metro Bistro has become a favorite! Their service is friendly & efficient, the chef is amazing & dishes are different than any other restaurant. Love the music & unique atmosphere. Highly recommend! 5 Stars for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“my husband and I went for the the first time yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. I love that they keep the potatoes in the warmer and then place them back in the warmer after adding the toppings. The food was delicious and the workers were so nice. We would 100% go back.“

“Usually, nostalgia is a sensation that comes from a time period you experienced yourself. Many of us didn’t experience the ‘50s, but diners are apart of the American landscape that chances are you have great memories in a ‘50s themed diner, or at least relate to it as a symbol of American culture. Thanks Jimmie's Diner for keeping that nostalgia going!! Our server, Flash was outstanding he was very friendly and personable. we had a good conversation with him aswell. our food was right on par and the presentation looked great. we fi shed our lunch with a giant sundae. Thanks Jimmie's and your staff for making our lunch a memorable one as always!“

“Regularly eat here and we have used the space for business meetings numerous times. Excellent space for collaboration and the staff goes above and beyond to make sure you have the best experience possible. Shout out to Shane who made sure I got a special gluten free (and delicious) dessert today!“

“We recently hosted our truck group’s holiday party at The Depot Wichita, and it was an incredible experience! We reserved the 2nd floor attic bar, which was the perfect space for our large group. The venue was decorated for the holidays, adding a warm and festive touch that made the event even more special. The staff were absolutely amazing—friendly, attentive, and ensured everything ran smoothly. The food was fantastic, and the festive drinks were a big hit! The Depot Wichita has a wonderful atmosphere and all the amenities you could need. If you’re looking for a spot to host a party or event, I highly recommend them. They truly went above and beyond to make our celebration a success. Thank you for helping us create such a memorable afternoon!“

“Da chicken shak and more at 31st and Seneca food is always hot and fresh and they are always putting extra chicken tenders in. My seven year old son loves the chicken tenders and french fries.“

“The staff wasn't that friendly. In fact, when we got to the counter to order, the gentleman was on his phone and acted perturbed that he had to get off to take our order.
We ordered 2 singles with cheese, a kids' meal, and fries. The food was fabulous! We will definitely go back for the burgers.“

“Lotusflow, Dj sunshine & Zealr the absolute best!! Love 🫶🫶🫶 can’t wait to come back to brickyard. Staff are professional and personable“

“I LOVE BRADLEY HES THE BEST“

“Got the Culver deluxe, cole slaw, reese's dish ice cream. Burger was well seasoned, toppings all fresh, sauce was like a tangy ranch which was really good. It's hard to find cole slaw I like it had just the right zing. Ice cream was soft serve with good portion of reese's. Portions are kind of like everwhere now days so wont knock that part. Ordering went smooth once you get in the right lane.lol Will go back for sure.“

“Visited while staying at the Hyatt.

Honestly, one of the best hotel restaurants I've been to.

Nice people. Good selection of mid to top shelf alcohol. Solid food.

I was skeptical, but the restaurant was solid enough I would recommend it even if someone wasn't staying at the hotel.“

“We had the taco's and they were amazing, generously filled. Loved them! My husband said David was a nice guy. Going to try the enchiladas very soon. Highly recommend!“

“Had the brisket Mac and cheese egg roll, southwest chicken egg roll, and voodoo fries. Egg roll consistency was awesome, shells nice and crispy! Voodoo fries were the big win. Covered in various sauces and andouille sausage. We will be be going out of our way to find them again! Seriously… try the voodoo fries.“

“best breakfast in town for the money“

“We enjoyed a lovely evening at The Greens for our car club Christmas. We reserved a room for 30+ people, had a few servers (Calvin was amazing) who did a fantastic job with drinks, food orders, and making sure we had an enjoyable time. We created a short menu which they printed out to assist with meal options. The Greens has a great bar, dining area, and extra banquet halls, in additional to the gold course. Thank you.“

“fun time, great place good fo“

“We love coming to Applebee's with our grandkids every Wednesday night. Tasha is the best! She's friendly and does an outstanding job taking care of us. My grandson says she is really really good at her job and really really sweet!“

“I can't remember it was either June or it was. May I know it was one of those months that was our waitress's name. Not when we ate there and she was awesome, very knowledgeable, very friendly, checked on us regularly to make sure we were taken care of and the service was very awesome would recommend this place highly some good sandwiches too as well. The atmosphere is always a little crazy. But what would you expect for the downtown area?“

“Great food and excellent service. Thanks for the incredible service Zechariah!! The Parmesan crusted chicken was delicious.“

“The brisket was decent, but the sausages were pretty good. The garlic bread was spot on and the brisket chili is a unique find that fits the vibe of Kansas. The potato salad however was nothing special. Overall, the restaurant had an old-school BBQ joint feel to it.“

“Great service and great food.“

“EXCELLENT!!! We were in Wichita for one day and the husband wanted breakfast. We found this gem on trip advisor and gave it a go.
Greeted at the door by friendly faces and were waited on quickly.
Restaurant, though in an old building was spotless!
I had the liver & onions - not a dish all chefs can manage but this was just right! Not cooked to death. Tender & juicy. Real mashed potatoes and the best ranch I’ve ever had (better than Mazzios!).
Hubby had a classic breakfast. All fresh, hot & cooked to perfection.
Did I mention their rolls. 🤤 Coffee was great too!
The only thing I’d change is real butter for those incredible rolls & biscuits.“

“Great food & drinks! Great service too!“

“Cinthia does my whole family, friends, and work caterings. From small gatherings to big family weddings— we all always look forward to her food. It’s all delicious!!! From Mexican, pastas, charcuteries, and desserts, everything is always delicious. Professional & timely. We love her!“

“My husband and I came here to get some better crab legs than the other place across the way. Jessica was our bartender/ server. She was very friendly, had a great personality, and did an amazing job. The food came out in a timely fashion and it was delicious!!! I would highly recommend this Red Lobster!! We will be back. :)“

“We ate here for the first time and we’ll definitely be coming back. The food was amazing, but what really made our experience special was our waitress, Cyanna. She was incredibly kind, funny, and patient with us and had us smiling and laughing the entire time. She checked in at just the right times, made sure we had everything we needed, and truly made us feel welcome.
It’s rare to have service that makes the whole experience this enjoyable. Cyanna is exactly the kind of employee that keeps customers coming back. She’s a big reason we’ll be coming back and requesting her every time. She truly deserves recognition for the incredible service she provides. Thank you for such a great first experience!“

“I grabbed lunch here for the first time because its close to work. It was so delicious, and fresh as well. The inside looked very clean and the staff was friendly my only regret is that I didn't order more. Will definitely be coming back more often now.“

“The nachos are my #1 addiction! They also make an amazing French dip! Bring an appetite!“

“Get out of the main path. This place has had a lot of Honor's in the Food Industry.
A lot of black/white photos of pioneering new ways ground beef, doing more on hot dogs, chlile. I get out my way...have a tall frozen mug of root 🍺 & chile w/ bean's at the White Stone Bldg.“

“A+ rating from their atmosphere which is welcoming hometown diner with friendly service to their heaping helpings of good food. Their old fashion hamburgers and sweet potato fries I especially enjoyed.“

“One of kind, cozy neighborhood gathering spot with really good food and better service (Diane especially😊). One visit and you’ll be back!“
