    Our bar service prior to dinner was extremely disappointing. Slow, inaccurate and borderline rude. Our dinner experience was the opposite. Server was friendly, attentive and efficient and our food was very good. Definitely more in lie with what we expect from Sonny's.

    Celebrated my mom's bday with dinner at Sonny Williams. Was told there is a $20 fee to bring our own cake. Was charged $25 for cake fee. We had to cut and serve the cake ourselves. For the extra money it would have been nice if someone had offered to cut the cake. Beth, our server, was attentive enough. Very nice. 20% gratuity is added automatically to parties of 5 or more. Nice dinner but probably won't be going back. Valet guy was amazing!! Took pictures for us and made us feel welcome. Not the overall feeling I got when we walked into the restaurant itself.

    This dinner was to celebrate my husbands birthday. They opened the door for us and greeted us right away. They wished him happy birthday before we even got seated. We sat with a view overlooking the street, nice and quiet. Our server Rob, was amazing. He had great suggestions and was there with everything we needed. The food was outstanding! We had the charcuterie which featured rabbit sausage (so delicious)! I had the crab cakes and garlic mashed potatoes, my husband had the New York strip. Everything was perfect. We will be coming her again.

    First time customer, my wife and I, two entrees, salad, 1 drink each, desert and coffee, $200 meal before tip. Food… very good steak both in quality and flavor (ribeye and my wife had a filet) although my wife felt hers was a bit too charred, Green beans are very good. Wife had a good baked potato. I ordered potatoes au gratin… I got mashed potatoes with cheese on top… not potatoes au gratin. Poor execution. Green salads were good, but pretty sure it was bagged. Greens not properly shredded to edible size and piled on a tiny plate with plastic cups of dressing and feta on the side. We ended up eating half the salad off the table cloth because the plates were so over filled. Nice on the quantity, poor on the plating. High-end restaurant, use either stainless steel or glass cups for dressing and other condiments. Service was okay, but nothing to rave about. Overall I’d say average at best. I expect a bit more for a $200 meal.

    What a rare find. We drove to Little Rock for the Tedeschi Trucks Band concert. Had dinner at Sonny Williams - sat at the bar. The bar tender was super friendly and knowledgable. He worked at Sonny Williams over 20 yrs. During drinks he gave us the download on the restaurant from start to present. The food was perfect. Steaks and sides were just perfect (preparation and taste). I generally don’t eat desert, however I made an exception. Best bread pudding I’ve ever has, hands down. I would drive back to LittleRock again for the Sonny Williams Steak Room bread pudding.

    The food and service here is excellent. Our server was engaging and professional and the food was a delight. We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. We do have a major complaint. The chairs are horrible! Flat wooden chair with a straight wooden back. Literally the most uncomfortable dinning chair I have ever sat in. I told our waiter about it and he said yeah they hear that a lot. The bar chairs looked comfortable with padded seats and sloped back. It was actually hard to go to sleep last night because both my wife and I had sore backs from going there. When they get new chairs some day we can try again!

    Wife had salmon and loved it. I had the bone in ribeye and was a little disappointed in the flavor. Wasn’t much to it taste wise. The side portions were large. However, I love steaks and mine just wasn’t everything I hoped for. Im putting that I’d recommend to a friend simply because my wife loved it and maybe it was an off night with the steak.

    Cut and quality of steak was great, but over powered having your plate drenched in butter. The over use and butter and or cheese for menu items has a cheap chain feel.

    Excellent service and food. I was quite disappointed that there was no effort made to give us a cupcake or an anniversary dessert for our 20th Wedding anniversary which we were celebrating last night, 3-7-23. I made our reservation on Open Door. It had a place to put in Special Requests; which I did, asking for the above for our anniversary. I then went on to your Sonny William's restaurant website, again, requesting " something " for any kind of 20th-anniversary dessert, etc. When my waiter asked us for dessert, my wife asked for the creme brulee. I got one too. I thought our waiter, may, bring out an anniversary dessert then. But no. Our bill for the two of us was $230, which with a $30 tip, I paid $260 for a 20th Anniversary meal, with no anniversary dessert which I specifically asked for twice. Open Door and your website. Disappointing.

    I chose Sonny Williams’ for my birthday dinner this year. I have to say the experience was exactly as I imagined and hoped for. The ambiance promoted conversation with those at the table and not on the cell phone. The service was remarkable! A friend was late ordering and the service still managed to prepare her food so that it arrived with the rest of the party! The food, where do I begin! I had the lamb chops, AMAZING! My friends had the filets and ribeyes and weren’t disappointed at all. All the way down to the sides, everything was divine!! I will definitely be dining here again! 10/10
