Fast food is a great option for if you're hungry and looking for a bite to eat but you're on the go and unable to sit down for a long meal. Fortunately, there are plenty of noteworthy eateries around Missouri that don't sacrifice on flavor in order to get food out quickly for all who stop by.
According to a list compiled by LoveFood, the best "fast food restaurant" in all of Missouri is Steve's Hot Dogs. This St. Louis eatery dishes out "legendary" hot dogs, per its website, in a variety of flavors, from specialties like the backyard BBQ or bacon cheeseburger dog to the classic St. Louis-style and chili cheese dogs. Steve's Hot Dogs has several locations around the city. Find your nearest one by visiting the restaurant's website.
Here's what the site had to say about this beloved spot serving delicious quick eats:
"Hickory-smoked all-beef hot dogs are the major draw at this relaxed counter-serve eatery, where every sausage is grilled to perfection and finished with regionally sourced toppings. It all began in 2011, when musician Steve Ewing opened his first cart to satisfy concertgoers' late-night cravings. Nowadays, Steve's Hot Dogs is famed for its limited-run collaborations with local restaurants, and for its signature St. Louis Dog, resplendent with grilled onions, peppers, bacon, provolone, and smoked mustard."
