Looking for something out of the norm with my nephew. This was a wonderful fine. The gentleman working the place was a wonderful fellow. The food was great and my nephew, who can be a picky eater, loved his chicken basket. I had the breakfast burger with spicy fry's. It was delicious. Very glad we took a chance. You should also.

The burgers taste like the ones mama used to make in her kitchen. The flavor of the burger, fries, and chicken wings are to die for.Hot and also fresh. We will be back. The staff is also nice.

OMG!! Can't say enough about this place, food was amazing!! Best burgers in KC hands down. Not to mention the hospitality was bar none. We got the buddy burger and Bodacious Baked Bean burger... my gosh. The baked beans on the deliciously seasoned burger with an over easy egg had our tastebuds going crazy! The Buddy burger has a seasoned patty, hash brown patty, and onion ring... so good!! I'm pretty sure iv met my calorie count for the week, but I would do it all over again! Go check them out. You won't regret it!!

The BEST burger spot in town! My favorite spot to visit when I am in the Lee's Summit area. Everyone is so friendly when you walk in. There's so much to choose from but I had to get the Unk's Burger and you're able to customize what you want on it. Highly recommend if you never been!

The dining experience was exceptional. The service and food quality were outstanding. My double smash cheeseburger, featuring pepper jack cheese and seasoned fries, was particularly delightful. This establishment is highly recommended, especially for group dining.

Best of Burgers! Come on, KC, where is the list of the best dive burgers that has Unk's on it? And if there is one I haven't seen it so, please correct me if I'm wrong but, I'm making my own list and Unk's is coming out close to the top...which is exactly where it deserves to be. Maybe it's been forgotten since it's off the beaten path in an unassuming strip mall in Lee's Summit but, the owners are warm, welcoming and were on the local news! So, it should be a well known destination, once I saw them on the news I knew I had to stop by for a sloppy burger and I was so pleased that I did.I was already out in Lees Summit one day with a few friends and we found ourselves starving so, with haste I remembered that Unk's was nearby. We all arrived and beyond my surprise they served beer, first score of the day! (even if the selection is slim to nil beggars can't be choosers) Now, onto the important stuff, the vast variety of unique burger toppings and add ins that Unk's offers. This sets them apart from any other dive bar that serves burgers or smash burger giant chain. You can tell Unk's is family owned when you're proudly offered to try their chili from behind the order counter and man is it brag worthy chili! And yes, you can top your burger with it. Also, notable are the delightful onion rings that Unk's offers as a side, the batter is thick and crispy without soaking up too much grease and it adheres to the ring even when you take a bite, that is a rarity. This time around I went with a burger that was already pre constructed on the Unk's menu and boasted some serious spice! I don't remember the exact name but all I know is it set my mouth on fire, in a good way. It had some variation of habanero or ghost pepper pepperjack cheese which always provides the perfect counterbalance of heat and the creamy reprieve of dairy and also had a generous helping of jalapenos. This burger was the definition of The Ring Of Fire and I enjoyed every bite of it, it was one of those burger eating experiences where throughout you tell yourself you are going to stop eating but you can't. And I didn't regret it one bit, it was such a savory experience from the thin (but not too thin) juicy (but not too fatty) patty and the buttery (but not too greasy) pillowy (but not too soft) bun that I would repeat this burger bite over and over again. Moral of the story, if you haven't tried Unk's and you are a sucker for a divine dive style burger and a dang good onion ring and some top notch chili then stop on by because at Unk's you'll always feel like your family, and leave with a belly full of burger.

I really really really wanted to love this place and let me say the people are super sweet and welcoming. The place is clean and feels a bit like a BBQ joint in downtown KC which I liked. The burger was ok and the fries were ok but nothing special and for a place that has "Burgers" in the name I had high expectations. It was $20 for a burger fries and coke, which isn't bad if the food was great but it it wasn't. I got the Sweet Auntie burger so will give them another try, I'm just not sure why I'd come back outside my desire to support a local business.

This was not my jam. I understand that people like it. But the burgers with the onions, chopped up in them, were not for me.I told the gal at the cash register that I didn't have much time. And she left my burger sitting in the window after it was done for several minutes before I just walked over and grabbed it myself.I hope they continue to do a great business but I can't swing paying $14 for a cheeseburger and a water.
