25 Best Burger Restaurants near Smithville

“This was our first visit and we really liked it. We were there Saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy but we found a table right away (we got lucky but saw others after us waiting on a table so be prepared). I had the captains double and my wife had the tenderloin. Our son is a picky eater but he loved their fries. We also tried the fried mushrooms and onion rings. It was all really good. And to top it off we each had a cookie, also delicious. We'll definitely be back the next time we're out at Smithville Lake.

Parking: It's an old gas station, so parking and dining space is limited. We found a table right away but saw some people waiting after us

Kid-friendliness: This place is good for the whole family“

“Izzy is a great manager. She keeps this store nice and clean with a friendly staff!“

“My girlfriend and I stopped here for $1 corn dogs and a limeade. The corn dog was delicious and when I asked for a limeade extra tart, they actually made it tart and not throw 4 extra lime wedges in the bottom like every other sonic usually does. 10/10“

“We moved to Smithville, so I've only been to this restaurant a few times. It's very spacious with seating away from the front registers. The one surprise is they don't have a public-facing drink station, so refills require going to the counter to request it. Not a real criticism, because I've seen McDonald's restaurants without them. It's often to deter loitering or public damage to the devices. Excellent atmosphere and clean.“

“was amazing. the staff and food are so great“

“Top notch food and service!!!! Definitely recommend it.“

“Shout out to the Culver’s employee who made my beautiful strawberry fields salad this evening! It was PERFECTION!! Not only was the salad beautiful, but everything was Super Fresh! The lettuce was so very fresh & crisp; the strawberries were perfectly ripe, juicy, & freshly sliced; the grilled chicken was a generous portion & still warm, but not so hot as to wilt the lettuce. The pecans & blue cheese chunks weren’t soggy. Perfection! 😁Thanks so much!“

“My wife and I stopped in for the first time in a few years. We were seated after a bit of a wait. It is after all a Friday night in a shopping district. Our server was bright and cheery. She had a warming smile and happy persona. we placed our drink order. Shortly thereafter our food order was taken. I ordered a flat iron steak and a baker. My wife ordered soup and salad. Our dinner was served fairly quickly. Unfortunately my steak was quite a bit overcooked, so I requested one that wasn't over done. When the replacement steak was delivered, it was a bit overdone as well. I was hungry so I kept it. The manager came by to talk to us. I've spent time in a kitchen or two and I understand a dinner rush. The manager stopped at our table and wanted to assure us that this was not acceptable. She made things right, but wasn't needed or expected. I felt bad for our server because she probably feared she wasn't going to get tipped for a fairly big check. She was pretty wrong. I tipped correctly and arguably better than normal. Our return visit ended up being a great experience. We met a couple of wonderful human beings. Had some pretty good food. And, of course, my wife and I got to connect.“

“Great Food and service. Would come here again.“

“We live 3 hours away from this location. Stopped in around 10pm after a full day at Worlds of Fun. We were greater by Aaron and Austin whom were absolutely fabulous. They checked on us, made sure we got our drinks, asked if we needed anything extra as we left.Thier attitudes and interactions were friendly and uplifting. Amazing experience after a long hot day. Thank you guys!“

“Burning love & French fríes“

“Food better than McDonald’s for sure … I love their fries … I’ll be back“

“Probably my favorite fast food burger joint in Liberty and their custard is delicious. Service is always friendly and quick. I don't love the shoe string fries but I love their seasoning and fry sauce so I make due lol. Still highly recommend. Especially the brisket burger in the fall!“

“Great burgers, large portions of fries. Staff is usually kind, with the exception of one of the managers. Large woman, tall, brown hair, brown eyes. Don't remember her name. She was rude and just shoved my bag of food at me, said "here". Haven't seen her in there last few times I went. Hope they got rid of her. Really wanting some of those fries now!“

“hot fresh French fries and my burger cooked exactly as I want it“

“Pamela is an absolute doll. I was very stressed out before coming to Wendy's. just taking my order made everything better. She is awesome! I don't know if she's a manager or a teammate but every place of hospitality should have a person like Pamula. She made my whole day better. And I will always come back“

“The girl who took my order was genuinely the sweetest person ever. I asked for her name which is trinity. The service was a breath of fresh air, I could tell all the staff enjoyed being around each other. Very fast and Very hot fresh food. I felt welcomed and their smiles made me smile. 10/10“

“Ken greeted me as he opened the door for me. Everyone was so kind and helpful. I had a takeout order. Ken opened thw door for me again as I left. The food was fresh and yummy. I am allergic to soybeans. Thw grilled chicken sandwich and single scoop 😋 made for a tasty lunch break.“

“I will definitely be back“

“Was a little pricey for three people for three people that came out to about $53 to $57.00 waited a long time just to order our food and then had to wait a little bit longer just to get our order it took a little longer than expected but other then that the food was really good.“

“The lady in the drive thru’s name was the same as mine .. Megan , which was funny and we laughed about it . She was very nice and prompt . The food I ordered was hot and fresh . Gravy was delicious with my hot fries . I will definitely be back ! Thank you.“

“We dined in. First off, there were friends of the employees in the restaurant, not eating, but preventing the employees from assisting customers. After standing there for several minutes we were finally asked if we had been helped. Our order was taken and these visitors were staring at us because apparently we interrupted there visiting. The food was good, but the customer service needs work.“

“We just work around the corner and needed an amazing place to have a working dinner meeting. This was perfect and we will be back! Everything was so great and accommodated all of our different eating styles.“

“Update: the quality of the food has massively improved, the real butter makes sense at the price range. Delicious as well, and the cheap USA shake was a bargain.

They are very busy but always get orders right. /Posted 2019/

Update /2026/ used to be able to get a whole entire meal for cheaper than a burger at McDonald's, now you can't even get the burger for cheaper than the quarter pounder at McDonald's :(

I can no longer afford steak 'n shake and I want to enjoy something after a long time that was nostalgic“

“Great customer service and super friendly drive through staff. Especially the young man with the long blond hair and dimples.“
