My bride and I chose to dine here after hiking the Tallgrass Prairie Reserve. Ad Astra proved to be an incredible cap to an incredible day. The place is warm and inviting located in the small town of Strong City just a couple miles south...of the Preserve. We started with the Brussel sprouts in the ginger sauce and we thoroughly enjoyed them. Who knew that brussel sprouts could be so amazingly tasty!??? I had the Bison Burger Prairie Fire and although these types of burgers are never as hot as I’d prefer it was still very good and the bison was juicy and delicious. My wife had the French dip and we both couldn’t believe how tender the meat was. It really did melt in our mouths. The house made chips were good not great but everything else including the beer menu, cocktail menu and service were truly outstanding. We look forward to driving the Flint Hills Scenic Scenic Byway in the future and we will most definitely stop in again for the fantastic food and hospitality. Thank you, Ad Astra, for making a wonderful day even better.More
