Good food Good service Good ambiance Really nice, I was just checking in, but Parsons needs to support what is good or it's goodbye all to soon. They been here a good while, but don't let it slide. read more

Burger and sweet potato fries, drink, tip cost about $17. Received my meal and it's 100% frozen premade patty and bagged fries like what I'd buy from the store. Would not have gone here and paid so much had I known it wasn't made in house. Not great. read more

Kitchen Pass Restaurant & Bar - Cheeseburger and sweet potato fries - Salad Near Me - Parsons, Kansas

Not a lot of good options in Parsons. I did like the downtown location, and it is next to a cute local coffee shop for after meal drinks. The dining area smelled musty, and the food was mediocre. Probably won't go back. read more

The food is consistently good. There are a lot of different meals to choose from. The price is expected. The wait staff is not very friendly. read more

Good food and service, a must visit if dining in Parsons KS. We eat here often and never been disappointed.

This review is for lunch for three in the dining room at Noon on a Monday. bar: It's a full, well stocked bar. I drank a Salt City IPA, which was a great find. The tab said it was $7.72 for two 16 oz. draws? That is the most amazing happy hour or lunch deal I've ever encountered! I've attached a copy of the receipt because I'm just that amazed. service: Faith was our waitstaff and she did a great job. We had a bunch of questions and she was very knowledgeable. In addition, she got everything exactly correct, even though we had substitutions and requests. food: Burgers were unavailable due to some HVAC work in the kitchen (as of 7/11/23) so I had the Reuben with seasoned fries ($11.49) which was awesome. My wife had a chicken wrap with blackened chicken with a cup of chili (also $11.49) which was equally great. All the food we saw looked great. The menu has some great variety. Everyone will be able to find something they like. space: It's a large dining room. We snagged a booth. Even for lunch early in the week, the space was filling up. Might get busy on the weekends. Looks like plenty of bar seats and some high tops in the bar area. There are entrances in both the front/south and back/north sides of the restaurant. details: Downtown Parsons has plenty of surface parking both along Main Street and in a public parking lot on the North side of the building. read more

Good food good service I go at least once a week plus close to my so easy to go eat I would recommend the chicken fried steak

This place was very good. I enjoyed my Reuben and my mushrooms. The Margherita was also refreshing. I would definitely come back! Our waitress was also very attentive. read more

Nice clean place with a lot of space. Our waitress was great. I had a southwest wrap with seasoned fries, and both were pretty good. I have to call out the fries. They were hot, both physically and spicy (not too spicy). Overall a decent experience. Worth a try if you haven't ever stopped in. read more

The staff were excellent. Ariel and Anita did a great job taking care of a very large group several days in a row.

Friendly staff and great portions. I had the artichoke dip (7.8) that could have fed four people. I then had the blackened chicken fettuccine Alfredo(7.4), which was surprisingly very good. Would go back read more

Great food, big portions amazing small town atmosphere! Hey! If you ever stop in Parsons, KA do yourself a favor and go to Kitchen Pass, the place really worth your time and money besides you fell like in one of those little town's Netflix show like Virgin River. Hahaha everyone is very friendly with a little drama to share. read more

Food was very good. Prompt service. Good for kids! Menu is fairly extensive too. Just off the Main Street in Parsons.

The food is average at best for the price. The onion blossom is very tasty if cooked crispy.

All the food is really good although I have never had a steak cooked correctly there. Also their alcoholic beverages are pretty pricey

We popped in twice in one week travel to and back from our vacation. Great food and nice servers. The four of us all enjoyed our meals!!!

They do not use good deli meats. Just same ole fare as anyone else. I and my cousin ran a restaurant and deli for 25 years. We bought the good stuff, lots of folks noticed. Most people can't tell but we aimed a little higher! read more

I had a business lunch there. The server was good. All staff wore masks. Tables were distanced. Next time I might not get seasoned fries--it is as a little strong for me. My burger was dense and I wonder if it was over cooked. read more

On my trip to the quiet, quaint old town of Parsons, Kansas, I didn't expect much in the ways of restaurants. You pass the usual staple fast food chains (which are much to common nowadays in America) as you continue into town, but nothing stands out to you. Amongst the crowded buildings on Main Street, there sits a shining jewel, the Kitchen Pass restaurant. Immediately as you walk in, you are hit with a wonderful, homely atmosphere, and smell to boot. The Kitchen Pass's menu offers a wide range of items. From Mexican food to the classic American burger. Of all these amazing dishes, I had my eyes set on the Cyndie Burger. With sautéed mushrooms, double smoked bacon, a perfectly cooked black angus patty, cheddar-jack cheese, and a side of guacamole to top the burger. These ingredients came together to form the best burger that I have ever had the pleasure of eating. If you ever find yourself in Labbette County, Kansas make certain that you stop have a meal at the Kitchen Pass read more

Meh. Service was lacking. Took over 20 minutes for me and a colleague to get out orders in. Food took a long time too. I had the salmon salad. It was pretty good, albeit small. I was expecting quite a bit more for their full portion. Not enough to complain in person, but thought I'd mention it. The ginger sesame dressing was great. The cheesy bread was toast with Colby jack shredded cheese sprinkled on top. Not anything to write home about. The burgers and fries looked good. Took another 20 minutes for us to find someone to bring us our check. There were two other parties in the restaurant. I briefly thought about how easy it would be to dine dash, but I waited. And waited. And waited. It seemed we were a bother to our server. Salmon was good. 1 star Prices were okay. 1 star. Service. 0 stars Quantity. 0 stars Quality. 0 stars. read more

Given this is such a small town, I do not have high expectations for gourmet food. However, I was not expecting my chicken fried chicken pre-packed patty dropped in a deep fryer. Rather sad. Reminded me of my school lunches. My mashed potatoes were incredibly dry and pretty bland. The gravy that came with it wasn't bad, but I am positive that it came from a package instead of homemade. The homemade bread that was served with the meal was rather good. The hamburger plate was about 1/2 the cost of the chicken. I was told by my dinner companion that it was good. The seasoned fries were identical to the OreIda ones I buy at the grocery store. Good, but not the home cooked meal I expected from this place. I did notice a layer of grime that covered just about everything. There was food and crumbs all over the floor and it looked like they hadn't vacuumed in several days. You don't have a lot of choices for restaurants in this town. Just keep your expectations really low. And remember, despite it looking and tasting like your school cafeteria... It's not! read more

is not that impressive everything that goes on your burger is cut thin enough to see through. The main thing that disappoints me is I was served the end of a keg witch was half a glass of beer and was charged for the full beer. I've never been served or charged for the end of a keg. read more

This was a great place to eat. Nice atmosphere, great food and large selection to choose from. We will be eating here again. It is the best place we've found in Parson's. read more

Great restaurant but the floor was trashed. Staff needs to take one of those powerless floor sweepers that just roll up the crap on the floor a couple times a day. Had it not been for that I would have rated them a 5. read more

I ordered take out...chicken supreme salad with grilled chicken. I'll let you know how it turns out. Beer is cold and they accept Amex read more

Kitchen Pass Restaurant & Bar - Cold beer and they accept Amex! - Salad Near Me - Parsons, Kansas

Good food fast. Large selection. Great service. My favorites are the open face steak sandwich, the cattleman's burger and the Tex Mex salad.

Looked nice and was clean, people seemed like they were enjoying the food, but service was awful. Even sitting at the bar, we kept getting walked past without a look. Had one drink in an hour, never got offered a menu or anything else. Glass was on the bar empty for 20-30 minutes before we just decided to leave. Looked like it'd be a good place to go if the service was better read more

Take a pass on this one. Despite the appeal of the menu's item descriptions, this place just did not live up to them. I do love the fact that they are located in an old building in the downtown area, but it was unappealing to notice a distinct musty smell upon entering. First of all, when you deliver a (bagged) salad to a patron, allow them time to eat it before bringing out their order instead of just four bites. And make sure that all of the ingredients are fresh! The tomatoes were not. The chicken fried steak was a total disappointment. Who wants to go out for dinner and be presented with preformed breaded meat patties that have zero flavor? The mashed potatoes and gravy didn't help improve the dish at all. My meal cost close to $15. My attempt to find a great local spot to eat was thwarted by a complete lack of imagination. If you like eating from the back of the Sysco truck, you'll be happy here. read more

The meals & drinks are consistently good. My steak was good. The Long Island Iced Tea was a hit. I eat here whenever I work in Parsons.

Excellent food. You know it's good if that's where the locals take you. Had the Mexican chicken soup (otherwise known as tortilla soup anywhere other than Kansas) it was delivered right away hot and delicious. For the meal I ordered the chicken and friends sandwich (or sammich) really good. Chicken was grilled with just the right amount of crisp. If I could change anything, I may have asked for the BBQ sauce on the side. It was a bit much. Over all a good meal and above average service. read more

Very good place in Parsons,KS! They have a great variety to choose from. My favorites are their wraps and sandwiches! The only issue I have had in the past is the wait for the food. I have found that you shouldn't go there if you are in a hurry. Overall, very good food and don't let the wait deter you from partaking. read more

Based on a recommendation from the hotel I was staying I figured I try this place out. Very nice decor and an extensive menu. It appears the locals love this place because it filled up fast for a Monday night. Service started off great until it started getting busy. By the end of the meal the server through down the bill without saying a word. The beer was nice and cold. I ordered the salmon and it was prepared to my liking. The rice I ordered was hard and had no flavor at all. The salad was the typical bag salad that had seen better days. In all not my worst meal but could have been much better. read more

Not from Parsons, but a local recommended this restaurant to me. The atmosphere was nice. Kind of a cool place. The food was just OK and the service was terrible. My drink was empty and I waited forever before the server even noticed, and after I had finished my meal, I waited forever again to receive my check. Most likely won't be back when I'm in town again. read more

Good burgers! Great Service! Do yourself a favor and try the Cyndie Burger! Has bacon grilled mushrooms and guacamole. Simple but we'll done! read more

This place is right on Main and was busy with locals talking business and politics. It's dark and cool, with a full stage for jukebox weekend nights and a bar through a side door My wife got the lasagna/garlic bread lunch special ($6) and I got the Wheatberry Club (charbroiled chicken w/bacon and fresh trimmings on grilled bread ($8). Side of good corn chowder too. read more

I have to say that my husband & I really enjoyed this place. I got a salad & he got a wrap. They were both good. The service was good too. I'm so happy we found this place on our GPS here in the middle of nowhere. I recommend this place. read more

Stopped for large family lunch while on the road, very satisfied. Nice atmosphere, clean, all of the food was good, and our server was very friendly. The kids loved that they had a side that was fettuccine Alfredo and I loved that they had what appeared to be homemade fried okra as the vegetable of the day. Meals included barbecue brisket , Mushroom and Swiss burger, a couple of the salads, chicken tenders, and everyone enjoyed waffle fries. read more

The first time I came in with my sister. The food was great plenty of it and good service. However the last two times I have gotten take out it is just been lousy. Got a Reuben that was not toasted or grilled, lacked sauerkraut and the Zucchini was undercooked. Underwhelmed. read more

Surprising how good these burgers are, in fact their burgers are as good at it gets. The steaks are good and they've add a few new things to the menu. The menu always seemed to be more "bar foodish" but I was just there and it is much more. It can be bar food if your sitting in the bar area, but if you sit in the dinning room the service is pleasant, the prices are fair, and food is really pretty good - certainly the best place to eat in Parsons, perhaps all of SEK . read more
