As my friends made the treacherous trek from their prospective homes after a light dusting of snow in central Arkansas, I waited patiently at my table clothed in red and white gingham, sipping my Pinot Grigio. I feel the warm air from the vent behind me hitting the back of my head. I pause to think about how blessed I am to have the friends I do and to be able to share a "little rock tradition" with them. Our waitress is sweet with a hint of "matter of fact". It's refreshing. I order a large cheese dip (of course I do, this is the cheese dip capitol of the WORLD!). The cheese dip here is amazing and life changing. Literally. My friends arrive, we wave, exchange hugs and pleasantries. After a brief exchange of conversation, it is revealed that two of the buds have never eaten at Buffalo Grill. What?!?! This is not possible! It is now my goal to make this place the best place ever for them! They are, after all, moving to Germany in April. I tell them that the burgers are the best in the state, and I insisted that they partake in the cheese dip that was gingerly placed in front of us. David takes a nibble of the cheese dip and seems impressed. WIN! Conversation is appreciated and drinks are enjoyed. Orders are placed. 2 cheeseburgers, a quesadilla, a club sandwich and BLT are requested. YES! A good sampling of the menu. Food arrives promptly and prepared beautifully. I offer a sliver of my cheeseburger to Team Bulldog. The wife refuses, the husband accepts (after being forced). He seems to appreciate what the meat has to offer. I take my first bite. It's flavorful and well balanced. As always. I always find joy in the cheese burgers from here. A wonderful, heaven sent combination of ground beef, spices, and melted cheese. Made just to each order. The fries (dipped in ranch) are also a delicacy that can't be match anywhere else. All in all, an experience at Buffalo Grill is one that can't be topped. Homemade burgers, fresh cut fries, and house ranch help make it so special. Everyone in my dining party seemed pleased with the food and overall experience. "Extraordinary!" they all exclaimed in joy as we all slipped in to our own food comas. (Im coming for your elite status Bobert Mac) read more

Really a 2.5. I wondered why in almost 17 years of traveling to LR and now living here for 6ish months I had never been to Buffalo Grill. Now I know. Mediocrity at its finest. Flavorless burger with so much mustard on it you could taste nothing else. Meh fries. Uninspired menu that just turns and burns a lunch time crowd. In hindsight I should of ordered a nacho dish, virtually every other table did. read more

I like the food and go there often. Today was pretty so I grabbed the dogs and headed down there. Their patio isn't dog friendly. I thought it was, so we went to Sonic down the road where the patio IS dog friendly. read more

Our constant go to for lunch and dinner , never disappointed everything is great and awesome value !!!

This place is really about a 2.5. We tried the hamburger because that's a good indicator. Honestly, it's not as good as what I prepare at home. The meat was bland and flavorless and just wasn't that great. We did order onion rings and they were very good. The service was prompt and courteous. My gut instinct is they are known for hamburgers, but now it's just routine and they put no special effort into it. If you're in the area and need a quick bite this place will work otherwise give it a pass. read more

I went here for lunch with a couple of my coworkers, 3-4 months back, maybe longer. (I forget yelp is so nifty.) This restaurant was very impressionable, first in good ways, then in bad. It was a nice day so we chose to sit outside. There's a nice atmosphere, especially with the garden place next door. The waiter saw us and eventually brought as drinks and got our order. There was a large group so we were trying to be patient. We were there for at least 50 minutes before seeing our food. We had to quickly eat our food and dash because we are only allowed one hour for lunch. I couldn't even taste my food, we were in such a rush. I remember being completely irritated and wished we had gone somewhere else. We almost got up and left after the first 20 minutes and I wish we had. Don't go here for lunch when you are working. read more

Went here for the first time last weekend. Being our first time there, my husband and I both tried the burgers. They were delicious!! A friend that was with us had the Chicken Nachos. I had to try one and they were great as well! The atmosphere there is nice and the staff was very friendly. You have the option of sitting inside or outside to enjoy the weather. Definitely will be making a repeat visit!! read more

Buffalo Grill - As you can tell, the chicken quesadilla was delicious! - Burgers Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

See all

Hamburgers, chicken fingers, and cheese dip make quite the potent American combination. And Buffalo Grill knows its stuff. Finding a group that's just in the mood for a cheese dip and hamburger lunch may not be an every weekend/lunchtime occurrence, but when it is, this is the place to go. read more

I have always had good burgers there. Not this time. First of all the cheese dip went from semi- sold to firm to chip breaking. Speaking of the chips I saw the same chips at Sam's in bulk. The burger had no flavor was dry the only flavor it had was from the onion and it was overpowering. I was a big fan not so much now. Then came the bill. Not worth the money. Not sure I'll get hamburger again. read more

Great food and service. When the weather is nice, sitting on the deck is fun with kids. Chili dog is excellent, one of the best in town and it is huge. They make great onion rings and great yellow cheese dip. Their fries are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside and always hot and fresh. Burgers are handmade and generous. read more

Fast service, great burgers fries and sodas, pretty nice bar too. Great club sandwiches says my wife, great place to pick up a good meal for cheap. read more

Great. Old school type place staff was very nice awesome burgers and hot dogsI If you are looking for a good local sports food this spot is cool . read more

This place is apparently a local landmark, locals recommend it anyway. It's a typical diner with sandwiches and chips of fries. To be fair, the burger I had was really, really good. Fresh ground beef that you can really taste a difference in and the patties were huge--being that I got a double it was almost more than I could handle. You can get 'em with all of the fixings which again were fresh and good. I topped mine with bacon and it was crisp, huge slabs of bacon. The fries were good as well though my wife said she found them a bit less crispy than she prefers. Anyway, I'd go back if in the mood for a burger and I may very well have given this one another star if by the time I ate there I wasn't already filling laden with grease! It's not a "light and healthy" place but it is fairly priced and pretty good. read more

If you want a burger that tastes just like your mom used to make, this is the place to get it. Their single cheeseburger is too big for me to finish in one setting. You get the choice of cheddar, pepper jack, or Swiss cheese along with all the normal fixings. Their burgers come with a side of potato chips or fries for a small fee. It's a great lunch spot if you're in a hurry, with the choice of indoor or outdoor seating, and the best part is the price. My meal was $8! You can't beat the "dive" feel of this place. read more

Great burgers and sandwiches. One of the best club sandwiches I town. Friendly service. read more

Buffalo Grill - This would feed a family in some countries. - Burgers Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

Great place with consistent great food and service. This place has the best burgers and the ownership is fantastic. Continue the great success and we will see you again soon read more

We had a couple of cheeseburgers with chips and an order of onion rings. The burgers were good, nothing exceptional. The thick onion rings were very good and crispy. The sweet tea was good, not too sweet the way I prefer. I told the waiter I'd be interested in dessert after my meal, but was given the check without dessert being offered. Paint was pealing off on the ceiling. I may return sometime as it's close to my home, but there are better burgers in Little Rock that cost less. Service could be improved. read more

Have the cheese dip! Staff super cool! Cozy little place. Nice little bar if you're solo.

The food and service were both great! Nothing like a delicious cheeseburger! Only giving 3 stars because the cleanliness was pretty bad, took my 4 year old daughter to use the rest room and the toilet seat, the toilet and floor was soaked in obvious urine, smelled like it for sure!!! So I had to clean it up before my kiddo could sit on it, wait staff instructed me to just wipe it off.......... So other than that, if you catch them on a clean day it's a good place to eat! read more

I usually went to the Buffalo Grill in West Little Rock, but this one is equally good and seemed a little less cramped, too. It's not a fancy place, but clean. When I was in high school me and my best friend basically ate hear every week because it was always good and we liked the atmosphere. The best thing is the chili dog, but it's so large that you shouldn't eat anything until you eat it that day or your stomach will punish you. They have a few different types of nachos and they are all equally good. The french fries are really good which is always important. I've basically never heard anyone complain about what they ordered here. This area also has a bunch of great restaurants, so take a long around and you'll probably come back to this area soon. read more

Great service by Becca! This burger was amazing. Had a little cheese dip on the side that almost had a little southwestern flair. Will be back for sure! read more

Good place. Fast service, diverse menu that is all pretty solid, enjoyable atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out.

Incredible burgers, nachos, salads, you name it served in an old bait shop. And wonderful cheese dip! Great, fast service.

Excellent food. Fast service. Great laid back/casual ambiance. One of my favorite places. They make a great ruben.

This is a hard place to review because it is basically two restaurants and really deserves a 3.5, but the service won the 4 instead of 3. The indoor restaurant is a dive, the mild smell of urine permeates the place like there is bad plumbing. We walked in, and looked around for a couple minutes looking for a server, bartender, anyone besides the old man eating alone at a table. But finally asked him how we get outside to the patio where we saw people. He didn't know. We eventually figured out how to get there (it was from outside, duh) and were greeted by a great, very helpful server. Which commenced the restaurant 2 experience. We both got burgers that were good and came with a huge side of chips. They were a little on the well done side, but I wasn't asked temp and didn't offer one up so my bad. We also asked about the Arkansas obsession with cheese dip that I have now seen on everyone's menu from la ti dah to total dive. The server confirmed it is an AR thing, but we went with the onion rings after seeing the massive bowl delivered to the table next door. He was very sweet and brought us a small cup full and chips to try on the house. They should serve this mini portion, it was more than enough. Maybe make it a salsa, cheese, guac sampler. Anyway, the patio was great, even in the cold, and the server was friendly and continuously filling our huge jugs of soda. I'll go back again if I'm in the area , but will definitely choose the porch restaurant. read more

This is as traditional American as you will find in little rock. It's not southern, but standard burgers, chicken fingers, and some sandwiches. Most of which is very mediocre. No local brews on tap, and $9-12 pp. If you have picky eaters, it's a solid option, but almost everything you eat here could be found better somewhere else with more variety and ambience for the same price. read more

Yum, yum, yum. There's nothing fancy about this place, but man is it yummy. Get a grilled turkey delight with fries. Or a hot pepper cheese burger (could be best in town). Or chicken nachos. Hell - get anything. It's all good! read more

The food is average at best but it's a cozy place to have a tap beer with a bud, especially if you live in the area.

Perfect burger, cold beer, great fries, and perfect weather on the patio. I've only been in town a day and a half and found this place on yelp. I'm here for two weeks so ill be back. read more

Love this place service and food is great. I like chopped steak,burgers,and the club sandwich. Wished the west little rock location was still open. read more

When I lived in LR, I ate here at least once a week. Of course great burgers, hand cut fries. Nachos, club sandwich, chili, and great service. Love the patio when it's warmer- cold beer, friends, & a neighborhood bar. Ahhhh...life was good. read more

Never had a bad meal here. Food is consistently good and service is friendly and attentive without the hovering around the table that you get at some places. Anything on the menu is good. They have great selection of sandwiches and hamburgers. Place has a nice laid back vibe. Full bar, if you're interested in that sort of thing. Just an all around great place to take the family for a nice low key dinner read more

Our service was outstanding. The food was fresh and presented like picture on a plate. I had the guacamole salad, which was turned out to be like a giant guacamole appetizer. Not sure why, but it was not what I was expecting. It was as described on the menu, so I can't complain about that. The only reason for deducting one star is that the chips served with the chips and salsa and with the guacamole salad are the regular Tostitos type chips that are too commercial and over salted. Perhaps the "restaurant style" chips would be a better alternative. Just my opinion. Overall, good food, good prices, great service. read more

Outstanding food & service. definitely a favorite. Recommend to anyone and everyone! 10 stars !!!

Buffalo Grill has been family friendly go to for us for years, but after today I will never ever give them my business again. I have never been talked to or treated the way I was today. We went to lunch with 3 other families (8 adults and 9 kids 5 and under). I called 3 days ahead to inform them the day and time we were coming and to make sure that the downstairs room would be open. We chose Buffalo Grill because of its reputation as a family friendly place and because we thought eating in an isolated area wouldn't disturb anyone. The staff and manager said our kids were running off their customers and the kids were too loud. Well, the kids were clearly hungry and antsy but they would not take our food order with our drink order. We ended up waiting 30 minutes before they even took our order. This was the worst dining experience I have ever had. Don't go here! Go to Cheers, Arkansas Burger Co or Big Orange instead! The food and drinks are better at those places anyway. read more

I really like the Buffalo Grill. The guacamole and chips are really good. They have one of the best cheeseburgers around. The service is fast and the food is good! read more

I really like Buffalo Grill. I have lunch here pretty often. It has good food, good service and a good location. You really can't ask for more. It's moderately priced and the portions are large. I've never had a bad meal here. If you go, order the cheese dip! read more

Customer service is fantastic, they were quick bring me my beverages and food. The burger I had was well made and I would recommend anyone in Little Rock to come eat here. read more

Hands down the best place for burgers, sandwiches and salads. The service is alway great and the food is consistently great. The cheese dip is a must. And if you are really feeling it, I suggest the double cheeseburger. read more

The place was not what we thought it would be. With that name we thought there would be buffalo burger or chicken wings but it was just your regular American restaurant. We started off with chips and salsa and it was basically store bought chips with mediocre salsa. My husband had the hamburger steak plate and the burger was tasteless. There was more onions than the burger. He had baked potato for side and it was cold. I had guacamole salad with add-on grilled chicken. There was only 3 strips of chicken for extra charge. With that said, the service was good. The server was very attentive and brought us extra chips when we had leftover salsa to bring home. She also gave us takeout cups for our drinks (coke and water). However, we'll never come back again because the food gave us bad heart burn. read more
