Hangar One Steakhouse had its grand opening Friday April 3rd. Since I like airplanes and I needed to get out of town, I drove up to check things out on Saturday. The entire places is aviation themed from the tables to the restrooms, from the bar to the menu. B-17 Bomber Burgers, KC "Landing" Strip, T-6 Texan T-Bone, B-24 Lobster Tail Guns, Mach 1 Mac & Cheese, etc. :lol: :lol:

Overall, it was a really decent place. The food was not the best thing to ever touch my lips, but it was very good. Wait times were high and things were a bit chaotic and disorganized, but I think that was mostly due to the busyness of the establishment's first weekend. In time, I am sure they will get things running smoothly.

The view from the bar upstairs overlooks Wichita Mid-Continent Airport (ICT) and it is a very, very cool view.


Here are some pictures I took:

The parking lot is crowded and small, but I got the Corvette in safely:

Door handles are the entrance:

P-38 Lightning tire and wheel:

Very cool feature for the seating process.
The tables are destinations, and the entrance to the seating area is labeled as "Gate 1A"

Our table was in Area 51:

A couple torn-up rudders were mounted on the wall:

I had the steak bites as an appetizer. They were gewd!

B-17 Bomber Burger:

The bread was awesome!

The fuselage on the outside of the building is accessible from the inside:

We could see children playing in it as we walked up.

This was above the urinal in the men's restroom:

One of the coolest sinks I've ever seen:

The Race 57 Corsair puts my R/C models to shame!

This cutie was sitting at the next table over:

I might suggest ground transportation, though.

Yesterday winds were 25-35 with gusts to 49.
Today isn't much better. Winds are 32-36 with gusts to 50. Yuck. Image

I was there for a "friends and family" night last week, to give the crews some practice. The menu was great, the appetizers were awesome. Best bread pudding I ever had. Over all it was worth the trip. I'm not sure about the fly-in "$100 dollar burger" possibilities with ground transportation from the airport, but it's close.

Yep, it's not right on the airport, It looks to be on the access road next to Kellogg? Still within a mile of the terminal though. I live in NE Wichita area, so it's not so much of an issue for me. :wink:
