Due to not living very close, this was my first visit to what I've called my favorite Arkansas restaurant since the change of ownership and must say: This is still my favorite restaurant in Arkansas. Excellent service and to be specific the crab cakes, lasagna and tiramisu were all the best in their category. Special thanks to our server Angie.

Wife and I had dinner with our son and his wife and it's was a great experience. We'd been to the restaurant for a special event but this was the first time for a regular dinner where we ordered off the menu. The Grouper and Walleye were wonderful as well as the Chicken Fried Steak (the collard greens rocked). The prices are reasonable for the food and while wine was a bit pricy the Emmolo Merlot was delicious with our food. Service was on point and very attentive so we'll for sure be back as we live in NLR and love having this quality of food in our neighborhood!

Brianna (sp?) took great care of us! Our request for a quiet area was no problem. The Patron Margarita was perfect - tart, only a touch of sweetness, just like I like. One of us had salmon and the other had the redfish dinner special. Everything was cooked just right and delicious.

We had an outstanding dinner at Benihana in North Little Rock last night. My wife and I made a reservation and were promptly seated with our group at the hibachi table. Our chef was an absolute professional from start to finish. Service was attentive, the atmosphere was lively without being overwhelming, and we left full and already talking about coming back. Highly recommend this location if you’re looking for a fun, well-run hibachi experience. We’ll definitely return soon.
