The Big Lieutenant

"Had a great meal the other night with my family. Kids loved it and most importantly my wife loved it. Food was really delicious and well thought out. Prices were reasonable for what it was - great, real, homemade food. You can tell they perfected the menu., Meatballs were my personal favorite, but the burger came in close second. Cocktails were beautiful and crisp - was just going to get a beer, but server suggested one - ended up loving it. We will be back soon."

"Best place in town for great and tasty food, kind and caring servers, and perfect environment to come with family, friends, kids or by yourself. When everyone is closed on weekends (in particular Sundays), this place is open. You can also catch a game at the bar while you eat. I really disagree with bad intended reviews. Food, place and servers are all great. Try the burger…you will not be disappointed."

"Literally can’t get enough of this place! We watch football here almost every weekend. The staff is great & the food is INCREDIBLE! Not sure how to choose a fave; the Cheeseburger is the best in town, the Meatball Sub is the best ever, the Dirty Neff is exactly how a martini should be made and the Fries are perfect every time! Don’t skip the Fried Mozzarella (if you’re lucky enough to be there when it’s a special) or the Skillet Cookie!"

"Really liked it, cocktails were great (could actually taste alcohol and not just sugar) and the food was really good. Looks more like a nicer restaurant, but has more of a sports bar feel with mostly sandwiches on the menu, or at least that's how it felt. For most of our time there the music was good but then it got turned off and sports got blasted (there was one couple at the bar with the TVs) and it made me want to leave ASAP after that. Cocktail and beer selection is pretty good (with a few different beers than a lot of other places in town usually have) but they only have cans of wine (instead of glasses) or full bottles. The prices are full on Bentonville style. I'd be more likely to go back more often if, for example, the grinder was $15/16 and not $19, just isn't a $19 plate of food. Feeling like you haven't gotten your money's worth is par for the course around here, but when the food is actually good it sort of stings more to feel like you still paid too much. That being said, the food is way better than most of what you'd find downtown...at the same price or more...so driving a few minutes isn't bad comparatively."

"The food and service were very good, the atmosphere was okay, but the beer selection and the cocktails were great! We shared the fried mozzarella appetizer, which was the special that evening. It was a good-sized portion, and the marinara complimented it nicely. It had just the right amount of breading to give a perfect crispy exterior to counter the soft, puffy mozzarella on the inside. We sampled two different cocktails, and they were both delicious. We also had Social Project Brewing Company's Hazy IPA, and it was fantastic. I was impressed with the service because there was always someone to cover for our server when she was busy. We never went without drinks, and when we ordered them, they were delivered promptly. I thoroughly enjoyed the smash burger. Two patties, cheese, homemade pickles (I believe), and a wonderfully soft bun. I loved the portion of the fries as I tend to eat a lot, however; the seasoning on them reminded me of a bbq seasoning, and it's not what I had envisioned. They were still good, but they just caught me off guard a bit. My wife had the mezze. She enjoyed the medley of flavors and was surprised at how much she enjoyed the rice. I was surprised by the delicious flavors when I tried a bite, too. Here's the catch: everything was really good, but the prices were simply too high for quality of food and the atmosphere. When I pay $18 for a hamburger, I expect to be dreaming about having it again. Unfortunately, I did not feel the experience justified the prices. Just my opinion, though I would still recommend you give it a try as there's good food, drinks, and service to be had."
