I've only been there twice and once was lunch.  I was superpak'd when I was there for dinner a few years ago.  Was there with the family of the company I'd just started with.  When the owner's husband heard that I drank keystone, he arranged for one of the waiters to go get us a 30-pak.  Within a few minutes, we had the box sitting there on our fancy table.  I think it was pretty good even aside from all that.

the Yia Yia's in KC is pretty good.  not great, but i would think it's pretty pimp for wichita.

Their beef tenderloin is probably my favorite steak in town.

thoughts...

knollas is pretty decent. the one on 13th that is. the rest are prob just pretend knollases.
avivo is similar to il vicino but different. like both.
fav appy in all of wichita is the cheese log roll w/ pesto stuff at avivo.
eff you guys for doing something on the 14th. could/would make it pretty much any weekend but that one.

Dined at WichitaPizzaCat's Avivo last night for wine Wednesday.  Was amazing.  I had the Johnny Wichita Avivo Deluxe as did JWBro.  JWWife had the regular Johnny Wichita Avivo pizza.  

Also, SD if you are coming in the 14th I have a great surprise for everyone involved.  Great possibilities of a epic pak of mass proportions and atypical setting.  

:runaway:

The 14th is my wife's birthday will be taking her to Dave Matthews that night, any Old Town activities would work out well for us.

BTW Avivo is better than il vicino IMO.  il tries too hard, love the panini's at avivo too.

Knollas blows, their 13th & West locale is very close to my office.  They gave us cold pizza once, never again.

Yia-Yia's as reported isn't bad at all.

It was one of the first concerts they announced.  I guess that giant Intrust billboard east bound on Kellogg downtown isn't doing what it intended to do

Sounds like BS to me.  Further proof of my theory that Rick Daris hates Wichita.

Went to pickup my tix this afternoon, if you plan on going there aren't many seats left.  Just the section next to the stage, some GA SROs on the floor, and some in the upper deck far from the stage.

You can still get Angelos pizza at a little neighborhood bar called Yogi's.  Its at like 26th and Seneca.  Some sort of connection between it and Angelos, their pizza is amazing.

Also, the Jerrys Bait Shops in KC bought the old Pyramid Pizza recipes.  Sundays are like BOGO or something like that.  Also delicious.

Use Marriott points to stay at the Courtyard in Old Town.  If you can't, probably just go ahead and spend the money to stay there.  Everyone I know stays there when here and has no complaints.

You could look at the "Hotel in Old Town" to see if there's a deal.  Don't think they're affiliated with any points-based chain though.

Hyatt and Holiday Inn downtown aren't too far from stuff.

Hamptons are all in the middle of nowhere.
