This week, we asked, “What’s the best meal you’ve eaten at a Wichita Restaurant?”

The best meal I’ve ever had in Wichita, hands down, would be from Sabor. The slow-roasted adobo pork with a side of the orange garlic mojo sauce and the chipotle mashed potatoes. And let’s not forget the white sangria. I had this the first time I was ever there, and now it’s my staple meal there. – Liz Sothman

Best meal I have ever eaten at a Wichita restaurant: Spaghetti and Meatballs at DeFazios. If I were on death row, this would be my last meal. There is no better meatball than at DeFazios. I could seriously make the meatballs my meal they are so good. Filled with spices and served on top of Pete’s famous, rich marinara sauce – you can’t beat it. The pasta is always cooked al dente and it defines comfort food for me. – Jana Curl

Dinner for two with my husband at Passage to India a few years ago. There is definately a shortage ethnic restaurants in Wichita, and by the time I discovered Passage to India, it had been too many years since I’d had a good curry at a restaurant. That dinner out, just the two of us, the good food, good conversation, the kitschy Indian decor and the Indian pop music playing in the background make it a night I will always remember fondly. – Karen Moore

While a friend’s parents were visiting from out of town, we had dinner at Chester’s Chophouse and loaded up the table with appetizers – calamari, ahi tuna and shrimp. For my entree, I chose the petit filet with mashed sweet potatoes. The food and the company and the bottles of wine passed around the table made for a perfect evening. I’ve had great meals at other Wichita restaurants too (Bonefish Grill, Red Rock Canyon Grill and Cafe Bel Ami all come to mind), but this is probably my favorite. – Shea Sylvia

My best meal in Wichita was fourth of July weekend several years ago when my wife, mom and I shared dinner at Yia Yia’s. Dinner was near perfect, which I’ve come to expect from them. I enjoyed a quarter chicken, asparagus and garlicky potatoes a bright and slightly sweet Riesling matched it all perfectly. As a finale to this amazing meal, we were treated to a fireworks display from our patio seats as desserts and champagne was served. – Tim Kaul

Curry, spring rolls and soup at Thai Traditions one rainy night last spring. Thai food is like my soul food – I always end up stuffed, but in a really good way. When my boyfriend’s mom came to town, we took her there one evening, and it was even more amazing than usual. (The fact that she picked up the tab probably helped.) – Steph Barnard

The best meal I’ve ever had in Wichita came from Playa Azul. I had tons of chip and queso, chicken and steak fajitas, and finished it off with fried ice cream. Muy bueno! - Maria Mannani

Definitely my most memorable meal is the maytag pasta at Red Beans Bayou Grill on the west side. Pure awesome. – Veronica Hill

My favorite meal ever is the chicken schawarma and pasta salad at Bella Luna. And of course no meal at Bella Luna would be complete without an appetizer of hummus and a glass of Reisling. Annnd… now I’m hungry. – Carly Holmes

The best meal I’ve eaten recently was at Thai House on West Street. Pad Thai and Spring Rolls…yum! In fact, their Pad Thai was so good that I spent the next few months learning how to make it myself because I couldn’t go there and get a fix anytime I wanted it. Now, I’m able to make Pad Thai and several kinds of curry… but I still LOVE that place! It’s never happened to me, but I hear that they often sell out of spring rolls on the weekend evenings – so go early! – Stephanie Cloud Seery

For our one-year anniversary my husband and I went to The Olive Tree Bistro and had a pasta dish with duck that was to-die for. I remember the meal being elegant and romantic and when I took my first bite of Tiramisu, I knew I’d found heaven. – Andrea Anglin

One of the best meals I’ve had in recent memory was at Abuelo’s on the Waterfront. Mexican is my favorite type of cuisine and Abuelo’s serves some of the best in Wichita. My entree was a chicken enchilada, which I special-ordered just a bit by adding sour cream sauce on one half and green chile sauce on the other. My side dish is always the Papas Con Chile because -HELLO – mashed potatoes with a kick! I also added a side order of charro beans (spiced, then seasoned with bacon and pico de gallo). Ohhh Abuelo’s, I’m beggin ya, please come to the West side. – Dani Stone
