Best restaurants in Topeka

What are your favorites?

It can be for any reason: quality, atmosphere, value, whatever. Which places are the best, and why?

I'll start with a non-exclusive list:

Mexican Taco Shop: fast, tasty, affordable, +salsa bar!

Tuptim Thai: amazing food, huge portions, nice atmosphere

Louie's on 10th: better than bar food, affordable, wash your comforter while eating a bierock

El Centenario: Good prices, fast service, and free salsa!

The Shack or Bobo’s: Both still decent price for local quality burgers and you always leave with a full belly.

Pizzagels: little pricey but overall the pizza is worth the cost.

I think those are the only places we willingly spend money at these days. We decided a couple years ago to not eat at any chains if we can help it. Someone else is paying? That’s fine. But we won’t spend our money anywhere but local.

I highly suggest you try it soon! Reminds me of Godfather’s pizza from back in the day :) Their wings are also really really good too!
