Results: Most Unique Themed Restaurant in Every State (Part Four)
There are plenty of factors to consider when choosing a restaurant—the quality of the food, the price point, and the location are typically at the top of the list. But sometimes the full experience is the real draw, which is why themed restaurants are so popular. Of course, there are always the tried-and-true chains like Rainforest Cafe, Planet Hollywood, and The Hard Rock Cafe—but if you're looking for a more unique experience, a little digging shows that there are themed restaurant gems all over the country. Popular themes include retro (whether it's throwing it back to the 1950s or all the way to the Medieval era), but that's just the tip of the iceberg because some restaurant owners get seriously creative when it comes to choosing their theme.

KANSAS: Fritz's Railroad Restaurant in Kansas City - If you have kids who love trains (or you're a fan yourself), head straight to Fritz's Railroad Restaurant. The restaurant has been open since 1954 and the former owner got creative when there was a staffing shortage: he invented a mini train to carry the food around the restaurant. The train delivers burgers, fries, and milkshakes to diners to this day, and you'll also want to check out the fun train memorabilia. Have you dined at this restaurant?

KENTUCKY: Biscuit Belly in Louisville - You'll be in biscuit heaven at Biscuit Belly. The menu is full of incredible biscuits piled high with delicious fillings.

We had the Rockwell Supreme and the G.O.A.T. The egg on the Rockwell literally topped this sandwich off. The GOAT was very different from anything we had tried before.
