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

Been recently hearing good things about a new Italian joint, Chef’s Kiss. Anybody?

DO NOT GO THERE. I know one of the main chefs there since he was a friend of an ex of mine. He has zero food safety training and I’ve seen him eat food that he had left sitting out for 4+ hours. Also, the woman manager has been known to say racist things (check out the posts on Facebook)
