A Streetcar Named Desire 5

If you like mediocre bar food slapped onto Styrofoam plates with no attention given to presentation or health codes, this is the place for you!

Walking in the place feels like the college bar where everyone goes to ride the electric bull at 4 AM Sunday morning. Despite this, I allowed the waiter to seat me. I was escorted to the back room, which I could mistake for the basement of my grandmothers house if not for the creepy painting of a matador on the wall.

The table had a green linoleum covering from 1972. It was sticky. I was given some napkins (paper), but they proved useless against the ancient table gunk. So I unfolded the napkins and carefully spread them out before me like a hypochondriac readying an airport stall.

The waiter came back and I ordered the chicken tenders. They arrived about 30 minutes later. I ate them with the same pleasure a hooker must feel when servicing a John. Four hours later and they have become a bowling ball in my stomach.

If you like eating at bowling alleys, this is the place for you. Try the cheeseburger.

A Streetcar Named Desire 4

I was tired of everything. I forget about Crown Center, though its close. So I tried it today. I ordered the Double cheeseburger, (proved too much for me). It was char broiled but not like Burger King where with every bite you feel like you just took a shot of liquid smoke...very pleasent cashier...food was ready for carryout in about 5 minutes. A very nice experience. Will definately go again but probaly just a single next time. Fries were hot and good. Very nice...

A Streetcar Named Desire 5

I've been going to this place since I was young. And I never get tired of it. I love the atmosphere. It's super laid back. And to add to it all, the burgers are just so good. And there is a full bar inside. Plus, it's located inside a shopping center. So I can get my eat on ans shop. But the prices are reasonable, so I don't walk away broke. Eating inside a streetcar is awesome. It's a unique experience. And every time I go, I just feel better and better about the city I live it. It's Kansas City at it's best in this place.

This place is always packed, but the spacing is genius. You don't bump into a lot of people getting a restroom or making your way to the bar. I love it.
