Seven Old Kansas Supper Clubs Where Dinner Still Feels Like A Night Out In 7

Some dinners are just meals, and some still feel like an event worth dressing up for. Across Kansas, a handful of old-school supper spots keep that spirit going with hand-cut steaks, platters of fried chicken, live music, and dining rooms that have barely changed in decades. These are the places...

From east to West, Wichita restaurants are moving, opening and closing

If you’re the type of person who gets regular cravings for Angelo’s Wich-Italian style pizzas and pasta dishes, it’s time to start planning ahead. The restaurant is finally ready to move to its bigger location. It will operate at 5900 E. Central only through Saturday. After that, it will close so owners can relocate it to the restaurant space at 550 N. Rock Road where restaurants like The Grape, Ernie Biggs and Dempsey’s Burger Pub have previously operated. The owners have said that the restaurant will be closed for a minimum of seven to 10 days while the move is happening, so now is the time to start stocking up on take-and-bake dishes.

The 11 Best Steak Houses In Kansas That Locals Swear By For 2027

One Kansas steakhouse has stayed at the same address since it opened as a supper club in the early 1940s. That’s more than 80 years of steak dinners in one spot. Another broils its filets at 1,600 degrees. A third grills its beef over an open wood fire, the old-school way.

10 Vintage Diners In Kansas That Serve Huge Portions

One retro diner on this list hands out jukebox-style players right at the booths. Another has been cooking chicken-fried steak and hash browns since 1963. I love that these old-school spots still exist. Kansas has diners in a former train depot, on a historic downtown street, and along a lonely stretch of US-36.

Grabbing some barbecue from Q’s Your Daddy BBQ in Maize, KS

Earlier this year, Q’s Your Daddy BBQ & Catering opened at 5125 N. Maize Road in the former Nancy’s A-Maize-N Sandwiches space. When I dropped by, it was over Sunday brunch and I wasn’t able to get my hands on the BBQ so I had to make a return visit.

Wichita restaurant was about to get a second rebrand. Now it's just plain closed.

The restaurant space on the northeast corner of Central and Maize has gone through a bit of an identity crisis over the past couple of years. After operating for years as a Planet Sub, the space at 10330 W. Central was taken over by local restaurateur Johnny Chandra and some partners, who opened it in January 2025 as a dual-concept fried chicken and boba restaurant called Crispy & Co/HaneBe. Then, in March, the owners renamed the restaurant Zen Bento and began serving bento boxes with choices such as spicy pork bulgogi, udon noodles, Chinese sweet-and-spicy chicken, and General Tso’s chicken. But in August, Zen Bento closed, and a sign posted on the door said the restaurant was closed for remodeling and would be rebranded as a sushi bar. Those plans are now off, Chandra said. “We decided not to reopen with the new concept because we weren’t able to find a partner to run it,” he said. Now, the 2,360-square-foot space is listed for lease with Landmark Commercial Real Estate . Chandra and his partners have opened several other restaurants in Wichita over the past eight years, starting with Tuptim Thai, 2121 N. Rock Road, in October 2018 and followed

Wichita restaurant owner had decided he'd have to close. Then things changed.

The owner of a Wichita Hawaiian restaurant who recently decided he’d have to close his business has changed his mind. Mike Brotemarkle, the owner of Sharky’s Island Bites at 8918 W. 21st St., had even notified his landlord that he’d be out of the space by Dec. 1. But earlier this week, he told the landlord he’d decided to stay. It all started when Brotemarkle received a cease-and-desist letter from a restaurant based on the West Coast called Uncle Sharkii Poke Bar saying that the Sharky’s Island Bites name was too similar to its trademarked name and that it created brand confusion. The California-based Uncle Sharkii chain, which has several locations across the country, recently partnered with Walmart and is planning to open versions of its restaurants in some stores across the country. It already has opened restaurants inside two Walmarts in Texas. Brotemarkle said that he found himself faced with a decision: fight the lawsuit, close Sharky’s and open it under a different name, or close the restaurant entirely. The first two options, he’d decided, would be too expensive. But Brotemarkle said that his lawyer recently discovered that Uncle Sharkii had let its trademark lapse. Though the chain is
