    The service was great. Sam was great from start to finish. I asked for HOT sauce, and she asked the cooking staff to share their special sauce! It was crazy hot , but tasty! Thank you. I had the Jager-snitzel, which was good. I'm a little spoiled with German food, so I'm picky. The ambiance was nice with wood and brick bar walls. It was a nice place to get full, and enjoy a drink or two.

    I'm in town for work and needed dinner when I came upon this spot. The location is deceptive cause I didn't see a sign outside. The inside is very spacious and has a chill vibe. The staff is so friendly and quick with everything. I decided to order a few things so I would have food to take to my hotel room. I got the garlic cheese curd to start and they have so much flavor in such a small bite. For my main I got the blu burger and a side of mac and cheese. The burger has onions, mushrooms and blue cheese on it. Very delicious. For desert I tried their Carmel butter toffy cake. Everything was a hit. I totally recommend this place. It's family friendly and has a diverse menu.

    Pretty brick- walled restaurant with booths, high tops and large low top tables. Very diverse menu - nice appetizer menu, wings, hand helds, and fairly sophisticated entrees and steaks. Tom ordered the pork schnitzel special and I ordered the 8 oz sirloin, medium rare. Delicious!

    This is the best date-night restaurant in Junction City. There is something on the menu for everyone and nice variety of drink options. Staff was working hard and happy to be there. Even though we had to wait for drinks for some time while seated at the bar, we enjoyed our evening because the ambiance was classy and the staff was working to make sure every patron had what they needed. I don't often find myself in JC, but next time I do, I'll be back to visit Blu!

    Taco platter.  Salmon, chicken, and baja shrimp!  All were excellent!!

    Food, service, and environment were amazing! New place that is very welcoming. Madison also did a phenomenal job! Excellent place, cant wait to come back! Go Blu!!!

    Instead of fixing why anyone is waiting 20 min for a burger and fries and they ain't even started at the 20 min this is their reaction

    Super slow service. Took an hour to get our food so we just cancelled the order. Drinks are all watered down. Staff is nice enough.

    That's the former Kamille Club I worked at in 1982/83 when The Band "Kansas" would play in our bar! It looks nice.

    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!

    This review is for lunch at the bar for two on a Saturday in mid-August…read more service: Both bartenders were helpful and professional. Hostess and food runners were enthusiastic. Everyone seemed to enjoy working there. bar: Because it was daytime drinking, I went with Hops and Harmony, their session IPA ($6 as of 08/2026). It's a solid low IBUs IPA. Their beer list covers most styles and has something for everyone. We saw a handful of cocktails going out and they all looked well made. food: Restaurant was on brunch menu; however, there are plenty of traditional lunch offerings. The standard breakfast fare looks wide-ranging and pretty awesome. I went with High Rail Burger - which is supposed to be a double smash burger - and fries ($13 as of 08/2026). It wasn't a typical, griddled, thin, lacey-edge smash burger, but it was still a very solid offering. Extra credit for excellent fries. My wife chose a half order of biscuits and gravy ($3! Can that be right?) and it was really great. details: Bright, big, open space with inside tables, outside tables, and bar seating. No wait at 1:30 on a Saturday. We parked on the street and there is a garage around the corner.

    Oh my, my MY!!! I have to get stuck right in...GO lickety-split to this establishment!!…read more We went here on a Wednesday and it was luck of the draw! The interior is filled with murals representing Kansas and wonderfully done. The food a gastronomic delight...especially if you love BBQ and down-home cooking. My husband enjoyed his "Three Pigs" and the fried okra would make every southern Nanny proud! My smoked turkey was smoked and NOT laden with salt, as some that I have eaten at other places. Our server, Gabby, was so friendly, knowledgeable, and professional! She was such a joy! So, as soon as your office or work from home is finished, gallop on down to the Brewer and see for yourself! You won't be disappointed!

    Everyone said they had an incredibly well made, flavorful, very beefy burger. My bf said "this was…read morethe best burger I have had since I don't know when. If I could get them all like this- I'd do it." He's not even a burger fan! We tried this because it was called The Best Hamburger and I don't like cheeseburgers and was so intrigued by the name. Hehe. Silly I know. They really are the best! It's a food truck and if you drive up and park they'll come out and greet you and take your order. I loved that kindness. We tried 6 items: 3 burgers: the Gloria special added to 2 of them. One hamburger with lettuce onions and tomatoes 1 hotdog, split and fried maybe deep fried. Looked wrinkly but was so tender and nice Fries, not too crispy but very potato-y and old fashioned tasting- nice and thick! And drinks, served by the can and crispy cold Everything was made perfectly to order. Clearly made with love and respect. We asked for the hotdog first cause my kiddo was famished and they brought it out asap, much to my appreciation. Customers were also great and we had a nice visit with and made a new friend. The person manning the food truck who might be the owner but we didn't ask- was so kind and so helpful. Can't emphasize enough how pleased we were. 10/10 would recommend

    Big juicy burger, sometimes it's what we all want, tastes more homemade than mass produced.read more
