Great food. I will bounce this review up to 4 stars in a couple days. Im rating 1/5 right now because the drive thru at this location hasn t gotten a single one of my many recent orders correct. I ve said can I get a double winstead with everything on it, NO onions though. and recieved a double winnie that ONLY had onions on it lol. I just pulled out of the drive through after ordering two double winstead s with everything and they rang me up for and gave me three winstead s. I have gone all hours of the day and several times a week lately. The food all tastes great. But the drive thru employees at this location either have such terrible headsets they can t hear what you re saying or they simply aren t listening while you plave your order. Like I said, I think I haven t even gotten a single order that I ordered when using the drive through. They simply don t get your order right. Foods good tho.

Been coming here since the 80s. This time was no different. Good burger, great onion rings, and a tasty shake. Somewhat pricey at times. Take 5 or 6 friends and get a skyscraper. 6 months later I go here after midnight and got 3 burgers for me and 2 friends after a lengthy hospital visit. Every aspect of the order was wrong. No cheese, bun so soggy it dripped all over the bag.

So, I'm pretty disappointed with the experience because of pricing and portion. Our waitress talked so fast and scribbled something for each order not that is a big deal but her unprofessional I dont give a dam attitude made it a bad experience. We dont spend 55.00 for lunch to be treated like an inconvenience. Food was ok and we left semi hungry.

The Plaza Winstead's is probably the best one left. It's great; it's a KC institution and a classic place, but the chain desperately needs a revamp. I mostly mean that the restaurants themselves need to be renovated, because otherwise, I think Winstead's is great. For those who didn't like it, you kind of need to be aware of who goes to Winstead's and when. It's great for middle/high schoolers to go after dances, it's great for a light dinner after a night if walking around on the plaza. But yes, it is in need of some serious TLC.

Good

It's the real deal, a genuine old fashioned diner! Kansas City is lucky to have this gem. It's like going back in time and the food is delicious. I'll definitely be going back next time I'm in town.

This restaurant is a classic diner, but even though it is large, it cannot handle very many groups over 4. The food is average, but if you are with your kids try the skyscraper milkshake. The kids will love it.

Great food. Not a healthy option, but its an old fashioned diner. Staff is always kind, food comes out quick and hot, and the location is very clean. I usually get a double Winstead as the patties are on the thinner side. O and get the fries delicious!

Winstead's has a great nostalgic atmosphere and look. The food is filling and sticks with the simple approach to cuisine. Their burgers are fresh and their chili tots are tasty without a greasy taste. Their milkshakes, pies, and apple dumplings are all made from scratch and are worth every penny.

I love this place. A limited menu of classics, but they have them down pat. They offer delicious, thin, griddle fried hamburgers and the amazing ability to fry things really really well. Plus, they have good prices on decent portions without going overboard.
Friends and I meet here bi-weekly on a slow week night and are often "that table" by camping out for a couple of hours (although we try to tip well enough to make up for it). Not once have we ever been made to feel bad or awkward for hanging out for too long and they're super accommodating about special orders.
Last word: SKYSCRAPER!!!

Location is great you've got a great staff who is fun to mess around with why you wait for quality milk shakes. And they're almost always open they might even be 24 hours but I'll have to check regardless just wanted to commend this great franchise.
