    That Bacon
    Jayla B.

    Definitely one of the best and equally popular food trucks in Wichita. They are also super easy to find, frequenting Central Standard Brewing among other local spots through out the week. Follow them on social media or check their website which has the schedule along with the current menu. The food! The menu changes! The all American burger is one of my favorite in town, super delicious. They have awesome truffle fries. Frequently they have Flag Fries which are super yummy. Recently had the BBLT (made with Benton's Bacon) and it was superb! The tacos are delicious as well. Especially love the Crying Tiger Beef tacos. They usually have meat fee option on the menu as well!

    Left Coast Steak Sandwich

    I so badly want to love The Flying Stove but to be honest, my first experience was a let down. I visited the truck at the Food Trucks at the Fountains event and they ran out of truffle fries less than an hour into the two and a half hour event. For my meal I ordered the Left Coast Steak Sandwich which has grilled tri tip steak, rosemary garlic potato cream, arugula, and fried onions. The sandwich was very cold which I wasn't expecting, and frankly was just bland and lacked flavor. It tasted like it had just been pulled out of the refrigerator it had been sitting in and was plopped on a bun. The employees were very friendly though and I've heard many rave reviews for The Flying Stove so I'm going to chalk my experience up to an off day. I'm excited to give The Flying Stove another shot.

    Hello, food truck!! I pulled in at Natural Grocer's where I saw The Flying Stove food truck at the parking lot---score! I just love food trucks and since I've been in Wichita for about a month now, this little food truck has been number one on my "to try" list. Today's menu consisted of caesar salad, shrimp ceviche, panini, burger, and a BLT---I opted for the latter with a side of truffle fries. The bread was grilled and dressed with spicy mayo. The bacon was thick and cut in pieces. It obviously came with your basic lettuce and tomato, but the surprising part of the sandwich was the herbed goat cheese crumbles and the fried egg. Those little cheese crumbles gave this sandwich an added creamy goodness, and a fried egg elevates any sandwich in my opinion. The truffle fries were delectable and the small serving was enough to share with another person. I had my meal with a cold, refreshing can of orange San Pellegrino (purchased inside Natural Grocers). Perfect lunch on a hot Thursday afternoon! I can't wait to try something new and different next time!

    I have gotten food from here multiple times and they never disappoint. Workers and cook are super chill and helpful. Their burgers are always fantastic (they said they use Creekstone beef aka it's Halal certified!!) I hope they always use this meat and I'm convinced this meat is the reason why their burgers are so good! Their truffle fries are amazing as well. They always switch up their menu with new/old options so give them a try!!

    Flying Stove Umami Burger - seasoned beef, roasted tomato, parmesan crisp, caramelized onions, arugula, $7, sans tomato.  YUM!

    I was up in Wichita visiting a friend who told me about these burgers that were gourmet, at street food prices. I'm always up for an adventure with food, and definitely like a good burger, so I was game. The Flying Stove food truck travels throughout Wichita and sets up shop at different places around the city each day that it's open. She looked up their location and menu for the day on Facebook with no trouble. We arrived at it's location and found the truck with no issues. They had been operating for about an hour and a half by the time we showed up and were out of the potatoes, but luckily they were serving up this famous burger: Flying Stove Umami Burger - seasoned beef, roasted tomato, parmesan crisp, caramelized onions, arugula, $7. Ordering was easy, and they were very accommodating to make my burger without the tomato. I was happy to find out that they took credit card, and I was even able to leave my tip via credit card since I was cashless that day. Bonus points for ease. Since they were out of the potatoes, my friend ordered her burger as well as the Seasonal Snow Peas - julienned snow peas, grand padano cheese, mint, and pancetta, $4. The staff (or the only one we interacted with) was very friendly and nice and chatted with us while we waited for our food before a small line started to form. The food was not precooked and sitting under hot lamps, so we waited a little while for it to be cooked. I honestly don't recall how long it was (less than 10 minutes though), but it was a very reasonable amount of time given that food is prepared to order. They also have speakers on the outside of the food truck, so we enjoyed the sun, listened to music, and chatted. By far the coolest food truck I have ever visited! The important part - The food! The burger was amazing! I was expecting a delicious burger that I would make at home myself, but this was far beyond anything I would make, and I'm quite the foodie. The meat was seasoned so well with just the right amount of everything. I initially thought it was a touch on the salty side, but it worked with everything else on the burger. The arugula was fresh and of high quality. The onions were naturally sweet and cooked perfectly. The parmesan crips was a very nice, different addition. It added a slightly different texture to the mix, but was rich, which balanced everything else out. And the part that held this wonderful concoction all together? The bun was also great. This was not your standard, weak bun you buy at the grocery store or that gets served up at the popular chain restaurants. This was a quality bread of substance and able to hold everything together without getting drenched in liquids or falling apart, but was also not too dense. The burger was hefty and moist, but far from greasy, so the bun was a good fit. It also had a light spread of something that seemed mayo based. It wasn't obvious it was there, and was just enough to add some flavors and leave you craving more. I didn't care for the Seasonal Snow Peas, but this was personal preference, and no fault of the cooks. The snow peas were fresh and crisp, and seasoned with some sort of dressing (that is the part I didn't care for). I'm not a dressing fan, but even though I didn't care for it, I could tell it wasn't bad. The cheese shavings on top were delicious and plentiful. My friend loved them! Overall, this place gets a 5. 4 seemed too low, but I would do a 4.5 if available. The only reason I would knock off a half point is that I like food trucks that provide picnic table seating and some shade. Food wise though, this place is a solid 5. It was a great experience and outstanding food, served up by a very friendly (and hot!) guy! What more could two girls ask for on a nice Sunday lunch? I will definitely be going back when I'm back in town!

    Banh mih sandwich, quinoa salad, turkey slider (YUM) & korean bulgolgi (whatever that means lol)
    Sydney L.

    How fun is this place! I've been dying to go here and try some of this "street" cuisine. I heard about them and was stalking them on Facebook all week looking at all their food and menus with my mouth wide open and drool falling out of it. They were serving dinner in Riverside Park on the night that we decided to go but they typically serve lunch...I think one of the best parts about this experience was trying to find it! It's like a little game driving around looking for this fun orange-ish truck. So we pull up into the parking lot and they had some reggae music playing from the speakers which was cool. They were very nice when asking us what we wanted and serving us our food. We got the vietnamese banh mih sandwich (which was much larger than I had expected from their photos on Facebook), korean bulgolgi (steak and other flavors wrapped up in lettuce), warm quinoa sald (i had been reading about quinoa on pinterest and was pretty pumped to try that!) and the BEST, a turkey slider (DELICIOUS). We got all that food for $20 and it was perfect portions to share for two.

    Truffle fries

    I tired the Flying Stove for the first time at a food truck event. I ordered the steak sandwich and truffles fries. Food was great! I really love the flavors! Will catch this food truck again soon!

My friend was craving a good burger, and Dempsey's did not disappoint. We shared the two burgers we ordered and thoroughly enjoyed both. We also shared a basket of their truffle fries with all of their homemade sauces--and probably 90% of those fries went home with us because we were just too full! Service was friendly and helpful, and I loved the unique atmosphere. The restaurant is in a converted house (as is the entire block), with the bar tucked away in the basement. There's also plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy during nice weather. If you haven't tried Dempsey's yet, definitely add it to your Wichita list!

We were immediately greeted by the host and another server arguing over who was going to seat us. Once we were seated and ordered, we waited about 30 minutes for our burgers and fries. When the kids' meals came out, the orders were incorrect, and the basket of fries we received was extremely stale and hard. We let our server know, and she took the fries back. We then waited another 25 minutes for the kids' corrected meals and a new basket of fries. Our server told us that the kids' meals and fries would be comped, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, when the food finally arrived, the fries were once again cold and stale. At that point, we were frustrated and just wanted to leave. Our server brought us the check, and we were shocked to see that everything was still charged. Nothing had been comped as we were told it would be. Mistakes happen, but the combination of poor service, long wait times, incorrect orders, stale food, and then being charged for items we were specifically told would be comped made this a really disappointing experience. We came in as a family hoping to enjoy a meal together and left feeling completely frustrated.

Why do they bother saying you can order them cooked your way? I ordered medium and mine was very well done.

Fries were OK. Companion had a grilled chicken sandwich, which was reportedly good. If you like a burger that is the least big juicy, I suggest ordering medium rare and see what happens.

The fries were great and so were the onion rings. Decor was almost museum quality- certainly from a different era: old signs, etc. Friendly and accommodating service.
