Landa Station is a bar with great sandwiches, really great sandwiches. Also great are their sides and appetizers, the quality that you would expect in a bar. This place has great bar food, football-game-watching food.
I loved the food, but for the sinus sensitive, this is a bar. And like most bars I know, there is a residual smell of smoke, but at Landa's the smell is slight, ever so slight. If you can't get past that, then order take-outs from Landa for the house or your motel room. The food is really worth it!
Landa's is located on Landa Street (of course) near Landa Park across from the Dairy Queen. If you're from out of town, consult your GPS to get here.
Tea by the Gallon:
If you ever see a sign like this on the outside of a restaurant, get the tea! Get the tea! There's a reason it's sold by the gallon.
Bacon Cheese Burger with Tots:
The smallest burger they advertise is a half pounder and they sell a double! The above is a bacon cheese burger with jalapeno jack-cheese. The menu boasts a Hell Burger with buffalo wing sauce and jalapeno-jack cheese. That one's on my bucket list.
Paddy Melt:
This burger is another half pounder with melted swiss cheese and grilled onions. See the side of onion rings! That's the best side in the place and probably the best onion rings that have ever found the inside of my mouth. Get the onion rings!
Crispy Beef Tacos:
Three crispy beef tacos loaded with lettuce, tomato, and cheese! There's so much stuff on them that you can't see that there are three tacos under all of that cheese.
Pork Sandwich:
Chopped pork sandwich comes with pickles, onions, and barbecue sauce. Great rib-sticking sandwich. This one is served on a sourdough bun.
Chicken-Fried Steak Sandwich:
This is the mother of all sandwiches. The chicen-fried steak is too large for the bun and that's a good thing.... No, that's a great thing! Whatever they deep fry here is done to perfection. And this sandwich comes with the regular: mayo, onions, pickles, tomatoes, and lettuce. You can opt out of any of those, but why?
Landa's also has a fried chicken sandwich and fried fish sandwich. The choice of breads includes the traditional hamburger bun, texas toast, sour-dough bun, and jalapeno-cheese bun. I did't mention the healthy honey-wheat bread option on purpose.
Scheduled for my next visit here is an glutinous attack on their appetizers: bean-n-cheese nachos, beef nachos, chips-n-queso (cheese), fried pickles, bacon-cheese fries, fried mushrooms, and bottle caps (fried jalapeno slices). Landa's has all of the food you need for a Super-Bowl Party, or better yet, a BCS Party.
