    Seemed like nice place, but food was not good. Liked the vault as a cool place to sit.

    We celebrated our daughter's 50th birthday while visiting Bentonville. They welcomed us warmly and…read morepresented her with a gift bag of amazing goodies. I wish I could enumerate the amazing dishes we tried but I didn't take notes. Everything we ate was delicious. Stephanie, Brody and Dante were an amazing team and they provided us with superior service. The ambiance was warm and inviting and it's in a former church. Arkansas was a surprise and Bentonville is a must see destination.

    We were really looking forward to dining at The Preacher's Son, especially after hearing good…read morethings about it. Unfortunately, while the service and ambiance were very good, the food and portion sizes left us disappointed. There were four of us, and we each had an alcoholic drink, all of which were good. We started with two appetizers: the guacamole and the burrata. The guacamole was tasty, but the portion was surprisingly small. The burrata dish was very salty--not just from the prosciutto that was part of the dish, but overall. We were celebrating a couple of birthdays, and the restaurant kindly brought us two complimentary appetizers, charred carrots and a gem lettuce salad. We appreciated the gesture, and both were tasty. Unfortunately, the charred carrots were also quite salty. All four of our entrees tasted good, but the portion sizes ranged from small to extremely small. My blackened salmon was approximately 1¼ inches wide and 3 1/2 inches long. I initially thought part of my entree had been left off the plate but I eventually found the quinoa underneath the salmon--but there was literally less than a tablespoon of it. The other three entrees had somewhat better portions, but all three were also noticeably oversalted. My wife, who adds salt to just about everything, even commented that her dish was too salty, which says something. Our bill was approximately $300 for the four of us before tax and tip. At that price point, I expect significantly better execution, more reasonable portions, and better value. Overall, the service was good, the atmosphere was attractive, and we appreciated the complimentary birthday appetizers. Unfortunately, the food was simply too salty and the portions were far too small for the price. I had been looking forward to this restaurant, but based on this experience, I left mostly disappointed and would not recommend it.

    My wife and I commonly split meals as we did here. On vacations we like to be more adventurous with…read moreour meals and reading what Tusk and Trotter offered we were locked in to dine here while in Bentonville. Akaida seated us and was our server for the evening. While many menu items looked tempting, we had never had Ostrich so the ostrich patty melt was our choice with a side salad. The melt was amazing! Honestly, I've spent as much for a grass fed beef burger so I was very pleased with the sandwich we had. The only negative for the sandwich was that they were inconsistent with the aioli. My wife got none on her half while my first bite resulted in sauce exploding from the sandwich all over my shirt. Still worth it! The mixed greens salad was ok too, but this sandwich will be remembered.

    This is probably my favorite restaurant in the Northwest Arkansas area. The atmosphere feels like…read morean upscale pub and the food is excellent. When you arrive there is parking around the square or in the lot to the side of the restaurant. As I mentioned earlier it feels like an upscale pub when you walk in, but this is also a historic building. Tusk & Trotter sits where Sam Walton's original general office and warehouse was located. We sat in the bar area as we also stopped by the restaurant during happy hour. For food we started with the Arkansas Fritters (Ralston Family Farms rice with ground beef, house-made sausage, parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, dill & lemon chipotle remoulade & chow chow) which were packed with so much flavor. For our entrees we ordered where the Buffalo roam (Sayersbrook Bison Ranch patty, brioche bun, cheddar, swiss, bacon, chipotle aioli, over easy egg & LTOP) which is definitely the highlight with a side of fries. The burger fell apart and you could tell it was extremely fresh. If you are in Bentonville, this is a must try!
