    Country Club Sandwich
    Steve M.

    Sorry, half of my Country Club Sandwich left w/homemade BBQ chips, & cold beer for my picture. Looked so good I dove in fast. Love me a good club sandwich & have not treated myself at EJ's downtown in a while. As good as I remembered! Great visit.

    Stopped in for a quick bite this morning .... Our waitress, the fabulous Cherelle was delightful. First time for something off their breakfast menu and Cherelle got my gooey eggs just right. My friend had the breakfast sandwich and said he wasn't expecting it to so tasty. Might have to try that next.

    Cake and Eggs with Bacon and Fruit

    Hanging out in Little Rock with family for a long weekend, discussing where to have brunch on a Sunday morning. Brother and sister in law debating between a few places and finally decided to take us to EJ's. Why, because they said the food would be great and the wait wouldn't be long. Well..............they were right! No wait and the food was solid. We were seated immediately and served quickly and everyone in the place, staff and other patrons were all friendly. We arrived just as they opened so there weren't too many folks in there yet but they filled up quickly. We started with a round of Bloody Mary's while we decided what to eat. Of course I had to look at the reviews on YELP first! Two in our group settled on the special of the morning which was Blueberry Cheesecake stuffed French toast. Now, can you go wrong with that choice? I should say not. Blueberry - check. Cheesecake - Check. Stuffed - check - French toast - check. Naturally you had your choice of two sides. My brother had a breakfast burrito and the waitress mentioned the pancakes were great so I opted for Cake and Eggs. Let's just say that we all "rolled" out of there after that breakfast! Be prepared for solid, good food in your basic dive atmosphere in downtown Little Rock. I heard the place is packed for lunch during the week! Don't let the location or the looks fool you. Stop by and try it out!

    Clumpy grits

    Took an hour and a 1/2 to get our food. Place was basically empty when we arrived except for two tables of 4 and 2. 6 different tables came, ordered, ate, and went before we got our food. Food was ok once it arrived. Grits were clumpy. Milk was luke warm. Eggs Benedict was great. Breakfast burrito was good. Pancake was delicious. Not worth a 90 minute wait tho.

    We went for brunch on a Sunday about 12:30. Totally packed. We waited at the door for a while then decided to go to the bar for service after standing for 30 minutes. The bartender took care of us, we got a bottle of champagne and extra pineapple juice. They are severely understaffed, while they're doing all they can, they definitely need more help to handle the crowd they're getting. The food was a 8/10 and fairly fast. Service was as good as it could be because of how little front of house they have. But again, we were kept happy with the cheap mimosa bucket while having to wait after we found a spot at the bar. As an ex waitress, I feel their pain running as much as they are.

    Authentic downtown Little Rock. Laughter, good folks and great food. People really enjoy themselves here. I am visiting on Sunday brunch. They have everything from Mimosas and Eggs Benedict to your everyday breakfast items. Boy they want to add bacon and cheese to all your sides. I wanted eggs, "Want cheese on that?". Asked for hasbrowns, "Want bacon and cheese on that?" I had to say yes to at least one. Just know hash browns mean potato wedges and the bacon put on them is almost whole bacon with melted cheese. Whoa!

    a plate of food

    Waited 2 hours for a table. They have three servers for the entire restaurant. Got appetizer before drinks. Tea was gross. Salsa was bland. Cheese dip was flavorless. Biscuits were tough. EVERYTHING NEEDS SALT. Potatoes were super greasy. Some Egg white in my over easy egg were raw. Waffle is made with funnel cake batter? Wtf. Will never be back.

    EJ's Sunday Brunch menu!

    The name says it all! This is a classic Eatery, plus bar, with a wide array of options. Great space, with high ceilings, tons of windows and natural light, and a style that's a mad cross between trendy coffee bar and *classic* dive bar. It feels old, but like it's kept up with the times and wears its age with grace and pride. We came in specifically for the Sunday Brunch and were very impressed. It's classic fare, nothing over the top of fancy, but it's all consistent and reliably good. Only problem we had there was the lack of Mimosas or Bloody Marys on the menu - they had all the makings, but since it wasn't written we more or less forgot about it. Our service was very prompt and courteous, coffee was free-flowing (and your coffee mug can be a kind of americana roulette, there from a random collection and you never know which one you're going to get!) While we were eating, some folks who must have been regulars slowly filtered in, sat at the bar, and all chatted with each other and the bartenders, like they were all old friends with all the time in the world to just hang out and relax. That was a really nice vibe to top off our experience. Also, bonus points for being one of the most affordable brunches we've been to in town :)

    Lunch combo, half Country Club on ciabatta with Italian sausage soup
    Velma D.

    Pleasantly surprised by this spot! I walked over for lunch with some coworkers... They have a pretty decent menu and the lunch was quite tasty and didn't take long. We all had a lunch combo plate (half sandwich with cup of soup)... I went with the Country Club sandwich on ciabatta bread and the Italian sausage soup. One coworker went with a shrimp po-boy wrap and the chicken Jack soup (which she fell in love with), and another had a chicken sandwich with broccoli cheese soup. The only complaint I would have is that the cups of soup are pretty small...like literally a cup. But the food was very good, so we aren't complaining. All of our lunches were under $10, the place was clean and very casual, food was great, service was satisfactory. Very satisfied and can't wait to go back and try the Reuben and the shrimp po-boy.

    This place has amazing freshly made chips and sandwhiches! Good beer as well. Don't order the soup, you will be disappointed.

    Super-friendly & knowledgeable staff, great beers, and really good Happy Hour options! My wife and…read moreI came in on a Friday afternoon, we loved the beers so much that we grabbed 3 6-packs on the way out. Happy hours included half price pints and some really good bar snacks... I would recommend the sampler that came with onion rings, cheese fries, chicken bites (get the dry rub!), and egg roll boudin. This place is so secure in the quality of the beer that they offer that our bartender actually recommended that we go to another place to compare: Moody Brews a couple of miles south. We decided to stay for a while and sample the beers at this place instead, playing rummy and watching a bowl game on TV. A perfect spot for all of that!!

    Stopped into Flyway Brewing on a Saturday afternoon and was surprised by how quiet it was. The…read morerestaurant was clean, comfortable, and had the music at exactly the right volume present enough to create atmosphere without making conversation difficult. Nothing felt overwhelming or overdone, which made for a relaxed experience. The service was excellent. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Water hit the table in under two minutes, and our beers arrived in less than five. That's the kind of efficiency every restaurant should strive for. Now for the food: * Cheese Curds ($8) - These arrived piping hot and fresh from the fryer. The curds themselves were crispy but fairly bland on their own. The ranch and Mimi's Red Sauce did a lot of the heavy lifting here and elevated the dish significantly. * Queso ($8, plus $2 for chorizo) - Very basic. Not bad, but not memorable either. It tasted like melted Velveeta with a little extra liquid mixed in. Perfectly edible, just lacking any standout flavor. * Pretzel ($6) - Easily one of the highlights of the meal. They accidentally brought us the espresso pretzel first before correcting it with the plain version we ordered. Surprisingly, both were excellent. Soft, fresh, and flavorful. * Smash Burger & Fries ($17) - The fries were fantastic: hot, crispy, fresh, and seasoned perfectly. The burger itself was average--exactly what you'd expect from a mid-range brewery restaurant. Good, but not something I'd specifically come back for. * Chicken Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries ($15) - The low point of the meal. The sweet potato fries were cold, stale, and honestly should never have left the kitchen. The chicken sandwich wasn't much better. The breading was overcooked to the point of tasting burnt, and there wasn't much flavor beyond that. * Bacon-Wrapped Quail Sliders - Another average offering. Not bad by any means, but nothing that stood out or justified ordering again. The beer is clearly the star of the show here. Flyway knows how to brew, and that's what would bring me back. The food ranges from good to disappointing, with only a few items really standing out. Overall: * Beer: 4/5 * Food: 2/5 * Service: 5/5 Flyway Brewing is worth visiting for the beer, atmosphere, and service. Eat because you're there, not because you're searching for an exceptional meal. If the kitchen can become as consistent as the brewery, this place could be something special.

I was picking up a book at the library and it's right next door, they advertised on the sign they have toiletries so I thought they might have toilet paper. I didn't see any so I asked. There was a woman filling a bag with ice cream and told the person behind the counter to get it from the back, the clerk was trying to ask her how much to charge, but she didn't respond and then she left. So the clerk comes back with one roll of toilet paper unwrapped like it was taken from their bathroom. I was like, ok, fine, thinking she might charge me .50¢ or $1. I also was buying a yerba mate drink. She rang it up and it was over $7, I asked how much the drink was she said $3.49, so you are charging me over $3 for a single roll of toilet paper, and she says yes. I said no, I will get toilet paper somewhere else, I am not paying you over $3 for a roll of toilet paper, that's insane. I gave her cash, she was still holding the money in her hand telling me I could get something else. I was so confused why she just didn't take that off, she had not put the money in the register, the transaction was not complete, she was still holding the money. I pointed at the money in her hand, and looked at her as if she was trying to make a simple situation hard. She kept repeating you can get something else, I've already rang it up. I wasn't about to argue with her in front of the small child sitting on the counter. So i said well can I get another drink? Still confused why she just didn't give me my money. So I just left with two yerba mate drinks, so strange. I went around the corner to another store and got 4 rolls of toilet paper in a package for $2.49. Seriously!

The only thing that was not exceptional was the "home fries," which were deep fried instead of grilled and lacked any seasoning or additional ingredients- just cubes and fried. For two people we got out for under $60. My wife had the avocado on toast and, again, everything including the bread felt like it was artisanal. Our server was prompt and polite, checking in on us a few times and asked us about our day. This is our best dining experience over the course of a few days in Little Rock.

It really wasn't that busy, but our server was pretty inattentive. We waited longer than we should have for simple things, and it was hard to get their attention. The food was decent, but my biscuit was basically falling apart the whole time, which made it kind of frustrating to eat. The biggest disappointment was the coffee. It honestly tasted like straight cleaning chemicals -- I took one sip and couldn't drink it after that. Not a terrible experience overall, but definitely not great either. I'd maybe give it another shot, but this visit was just average for me.
