The take

The menu puts its own flag on the fried trout rather than the beef, which is the opposite of what the sign suggests. Whether it shares more than a name with the drive-in out on Independence is not documented anywhere we can point to — enjoy it on its own terms.

What to order: The fried fillet of trout the menu bills as world-famous, the Triple Cheeseburger or Super Boy, and homemade onion rings.
