Amelia's Grill & Bar 221 East Kellogg Street, Wichita, KS 67202

"Not open. Doesn’t appear to exist"

"This small recently-reworked hotel restaurant boasts many American and Italian favorites, including some soul foods, many types of chicken, and classy burgers. I tried the Bourbon BBQ Bacon cheeseburger with a side of french fries. I received my order much faster than I expected to, as several Indian students were keeping the wait staff very busy moving back and forth to the kitchen carrying loads of traditional cuisine. Bearing what was probably nearly a ½ lb tender burger patty cooked to a juicy medium just north of medium-rare, the sandwich was finished out inside of its large sesame seed bun by crispy bacon and melted cheddar over a smoky bourbon sauce. The french fries appeared a bit lighter than golden, but were crisped to a perfect texture and seasoned with a novel and slightly spicy taste that complemented the burger well. The ensemble was finished by a dill spear. As for the service, the staff were attentive and friendly. They were highly excited to share samples of some of their traditional Indian foods with me, all of them well prepared and extraordinarily tasty. The "batter balls" with a peanut curry sauce were especially nice, as was the "dassa[sp?]" with a tangy curried dipping soup and more of the peanut curry sauce. A surprising finishing touch was then served, called "igli[sp?]" and it had a marvelously delicate flavor and light texture due to its being prepared with no cooking oil. I certainly recommend this recent startup restaurant on the first floor of the Wyndham Garden hotel in downtown Wichita Kansas. I will definitely be coming again!"
