    I love this place. The staff and lovely but food does not get out to tables quickly - which is a real issue at lunch. This may not be the faulty of the servers, but there is a service line problem and I hope it will be addressed.

    Upon our arrival - unbeknownst to us - we were given lunch menus, which was unfortunate, as we had mentally made our selections by the time the server approached us the first time. The server, once he realized we didn’t posses the right menu, got us the correct ones, and was immediately interested in gathering our selections before we had time to look at the new menu. We ordered a bottle of wine which he struggled to open. Although inappropriate, it was bad enough that I offered to help. The server seemed overall very inexperienced and quite awkward. We then made our new selections for dinner and was very disappointed to have made choices that had already been sold old. In general, the space was beautiful and the food was good and our time was enjoyable; the main issue seemed to be inept staff.

    What a lovely evening at the Park Grill in the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts! My dining companion and I had a leisurely and delicious meal that include cocktail that had a ginger limeade base, the tomato pie and sweet potato fries for appetizers, the salmon and chicken for dinner, and the orange almond cake and brownie bar for dessert. Every dish/course was delicious and the server was attentive but not hovering. A wonderful dining experience and in beautiful space! The restaurant was not busy, so the noise level was very low and allowed for great conversation as we enjoyed our meal. Highly recommend!

    I've been at Park Grill twice, the location is amazing as well the atmosphere of the restaurant. The servers and the hosts are very friendly. I had a very good impression of the food the first time I went, only to be disappointed the second time when I had the same plate as appetizer. It was cold and tasteless, nowhere near close to the delicious dish I was served the first time. I had the same feedback about consistency from other friends that went multiple times. I'll probably try again in the future, I really want to like this restaurant.

    Park Grill projects an image of sophistication, not just a run of the mill eatery. The setting and location certainly justifies that. However, in that context the food was mediocre. For example the bread accompanying my sandwich looked and tasted like something I can buy at a supermarket. Overall impression, good presentation but not backed up by quality ingredients. I would recommend Park Grill but with some reservations.

    There was a lunch party of 20 who probably ordered just before we did and so our wait time for our main course was pretty long. Our waiter apologized and the food was perfect.

    Beautiful setting. Courteous staff. Disappointing menu choice. The smoked chicken Waldorf salad - beautifully presented - was almost inedible. Heavy, peculiar smoke taste, almost no apple (approximately three 2” long matchsticks). Very generous serving of chicken that would have been better without the smoke flavor and about half the amount of chicken. Much more apple, lettuce and other fruit (grapes?) and vegetable (celery?) - even nuts - to offset and cleanse the taste of the chicken would have helped.

    The food was adequate.. server was unsure as to what was available… other near by restaurants offer better value, choice and service. They had overbooked the restaurant and even though we had reservations we had to wait… what’s the point of reservations if you overbook the restaurant???

    Food presentation is excellent. It's a nice evening to spend an hour in the museum, eat and then walk around another hour or so. Food seemed a bit pricey but will go again. They don't accept cash.

    Our server, Brook, was wonderful. She and the staff were very accommodating. We were seated inside first at a large round table that made communicating a bit difficult for the three of us. We asked if we could be seated outside, and they were happy to make that possible. The slight breeze, view of the park, and chance for good friends to visit and catch up was just what we needed. We had the burger and turkey sandwich with sweet potato fries and thought it was all delicious!

    First visit food, service, cleanliness was excellent. Both were mediocre this time around. Also first visit waiter asked if I was a member to get discount. Was not asked this time & forgot to tell waiter so I lost my 10%. discount. This is very important that the wait staff asks the customer if they are a member.

    Finally was able to get in on a Saturday at this very vibrant and highly desired spot. If you ever want to go, definitely get a reservation. The moment you walk in, you will be in awe of the decor and architecture. It’s pretty and Little Rock needs a little bump up in advance designed restaurants. Its all windows and classy but simple decor. Every staff member was exceptional. We had Richard who really knew what he was doing and on the spot at every moment. Even Kennedy the runner was great & friendly. We ordered the pimiento cheese app along with the sea salt sweet potato fries. Both were good, the pimiento cheese wasn’t overly creamy. The sweet potato fries were made even better with the comeback sauce. My wife ordered the grilled chicken salad, basic lunch so no comments there. It was good she said. I ordered their signature burger. It was good, I ordered medium and came well done. The toasted bun was a special touch. I love a toasted bun. The tomato helped the burger be juicy, and I did mention it to Richard the burger was well done but no need to replace. It was a good burger for sure. I enjoyed it. No doubt, a good burger. My friend ordered the eggs Benedict, he enjoyed it. Said slightly salty but that really came from the ham. The star though was the dessert. The brownie bar with salted caramel ice cream was cleaned off. Delicious! The ice cream tasted more of a coffee flavored ice cream vs salted caramel but totally worked. We also had the orange almond cake which was really nice. A perfect summer dessert. A little berry sauce or whipped cream would’ve brought it all the way. As much as we loved the aesthetics, the staff, and atmosphere, there wasn't anything there that was so great, would make us crave to come back again. I think definitely a great date spot, a lunch while hanging out downtown but this isn't a place you can casually walk into. Ran out of room, can see more of the review on yelp.

    The private dining area needs to have something on the walls to baffle the sound, which reverberates off the walls, ceiling, and glass. With the area half full, the noise was too loud for the brunch experience. The service was soooo slow. We didn't get our food for 1 hour after were seated.

    The entire experience was excellent in every way. Food quality and presentation, service, background sounds and views, wait time, menu selections and ambiance, all were excellent. It was pricey, but worth it for special occasions. It was too expensive to consider for frequent outings. It was wonderful and I will return. Our servers were extremely attentive and accommodating.
