We had service, but wow no lunch menu. We know now not to come back at lunchtime. Food was okay nothing to brag about . It has a neat interior read more

First worst experience I've had here. They have a new salad on the menu and we tried it (don't do it!) - spinach, strawberry, almond, (goat cheese?), and poppy seed dressing - ODD COMBO OF FLAVORS THAT DIDNT MESH... plus we had a fly in the dressing. There were two ladies at the front podium by the door who seemed to be doing nothing while standing at the podium (they don't seat you there - you sit where you want) - we had a question and motioned them over - they acted odd/bothered and were not really engaging and seemed to lack common social skills - not to mention lacking customer service skills. They leaned all over the podium, slouching and with their hands on their chins acting like they were bored out of their minds and had no clue what to do at their "post." It was the oddest experience we've ever had there. I really just cannot get over how unprofessional and seemingly clueless these ladies were about what their job was. I can only suppose they were to be friendly, engaging, helpful and welcoming hosts to diners. They missed the mark - they were not even anywhere near the target. Our waitress was fine but, she seemed scattered and forgot us a couple of times - it was like we were in some odd world of JJ's unlike any experience we've ever had there... Hope it's just a one time deal. The manager we often see wasn't there tonight. He's always been great and when we've seen him - the place has felt completely different and more positive. I hope we see him (and that same level of service experience again)! Dining expeirnce on 8/6/24 about 6pm +/-. read more

The mushroom Swiss burger was dry and bland the, mushrooms were almost nonexistent, and the unwashed lettuce was a rotten cherry on top. The spud side was also bland and gritty, how do you make a steamed potato gritty?? The waitress was amazing thank you to her for being as professional as she was. Go for the sports and the beer, miss the food. read more

The loaded cheese dip and the beer selection served in a large cold mug. A friendly neighborhood feeling atmosphere.

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat during the week after a long workday. Ordered the street tacos with the homemade chips. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. The tacos and chips were amazing! I was absolutely blown away that they made tacos that are all thriller, no filler, and they fill them up! Don't even get me started on how good those homemade potato chips were. Absolutely amazing place! read more

Was greeted immediately upon walking in the door. Had some great music playing. Both of my bartenders were very attentive, friendly and great attitudes. Had a burger and onion rings and zero complaints. Definitely will come back. read more

This was our first visit to J.J.s. We we're there to watch dem hogs play their bowl game and get some food. Even though the parking lot was full, we were able to get a booth, and were treated to great service all night. I had my heart set on trying the shrimp tacos, but they were out of shrimp. I instead ordered the World Famous Cheeseburger. It was absolutely delicious, and I loved the onion rings I got with it. My wife ordered the taco salad, and enjoyed her food too. We will definitely be back! read more

WORST SERVICE ALERT I came from California to visit family & we came to JJ's Grill & I had the worst experience here!!! The servers are rude with stank attitude no smile on their face & then I asked for my fries & the server said quote "I only have two hands" that is not the way you respond to a customer !!! I thought us Californians were rude but no it's these servers .The servers here need to smile more & be respectful.. read more

JJ's Grill - Burgers Near Me - Fort Smith, Arkansas

Frozen, small tastless dry burgers with fries for $15.50!!! The drinks are horrible so stick with bottles. Not going back too expensive for crappy food. Skip the food if it's not happy hour wings and sliders. Second time for very poor quality very expensive food read more

The positive: kids eat free and enjoyed their dinner of mac and cheese. The negative: had a strawberry spinach salad and the taste was "odd". It was a large portion but not good. The poppyseed dressing (on the side) had a bug in it - it happens, I get it, but not preferable. There were 2 ladies at the front "hostess stand". They did not greet anyone or seat anyone and appeared to simply stand there talking to each other the entire time we dined. Again, seemed odd. Will give another try because maybe it was just an off night but tonight was a miss for us. read more

Great food, service, and specials. This is my go to for watching sports. The street tacos and jalapeno flautas all day everyday!

great food and great service. very attentive staff. love flip for the burger nights and special music guests

Can I get an applause for the outstanding service and southern hospitality? Robin went out of his way to make sure I felt comfortable at JJ's. They have amazing 1 dollar happy minute specials and great deals during NFL. Don't miss out on a fort smith staple, come to JJ's -California visitor read more

JJ's Grill - a man in a blue shirt and a woman in a blue shirt - Burgers Near Me - Fort Smith, Arkansas

The side of grilled veggies were delicious. Fish and chips very bland. Service was overall good. It's very dark inside so outside seating is optional for those who prefer some natural vitamin d. They have a jukebox, a few outdoor games to keep you entertained. read more

The food was pretty good. Some in our party really liked their food. Others did not. I had the buffalo salad and it was pretty good. Very spicy which was fine. Someone else had the chicken tenders, and they tasted homemade - not the kind from a food service vendor. I tried a friend's sweet potato fries and they were undercooked. Parents need to know the waitresses are dressed like the ones at Hooters. If we had known that, our party would have gone elsewhere. One of the waitresses was very pleasant. A few of the others were somewhat rude. Not sure how often they have live music, but it is very, very, very loud. This isn't a place for conversation especially with a larger group on live music night. It isn't a place for kids when there's live music either. The music seemed excessively loud for a place this size, especially since it is a restaurant and not just a bar. read more

This fried bologna sandwich with a yolky egg and cheese on this cornmeal bread...lights out delicious!!! 5* good. But that mac & cheese was bad. Not hot and bland as water. So with that being said I shoulda gave them 3*...but Brooke White was singing live and so 4* is legit. I would definitely eat there again...order that bologna goodness with fries next time...should be 5* visit then. It really is a great joint. Server was awesome!!! read more

Another Successful visit to a JJ's establishment in AR. I think this was like my 4th stop at either a JJ's or JBGB's in the NW ARK area and all are pretty much the same which I mean as compliment. -Good Food -Great Beer Specials -Great Staff -Great Live Music -Great Sports Bars/Restaurant's The Ft Smith version was no different. read more

Juke box too low if you play your own songs but goes up when it goes back to radio station. Wrong order. Mac and cheese dry. Cheese dip not real good. Chips stale. Better in the past. Maybe they were having a bad day. read more

Super place to relax away the week! Weekend fun~Come on out! Good Luck Slim playing great stuff! Cheese fries on the way! Give JJ's some love! read more

Solid little Texas styled sports bar. Service was awesome. Stopped to watch a game but they didn't get the big10 channel but had free WiFi so I was able to watch my game on my phone. Well worth the inconvenience. Great live band playing. Great options for beers on draft, (I had the cream stout, very smooth). The burger w egg was a good choice if your looking for something heavy. Double patties.... My server was great as well. Not a place I would take my first date but definitely a great place to hang out. read more

Good old fashioned honky-think, nothing fancy but great burgers, bbq and wings, cold beer, cocktails, live music in the evenings and plenty of screens for your sports viewing pleasure. The staff is friendly, competent and helpful, my only reason it isn't 5/5 stars is it's popularity, it can be a bit crowded on game days and when local bands are performing. They have patio seating and are convenient to my home and work which make this place a local favorite. read more

I love this place, I've been a bunch of times, sometimes the food is great, sometimes it sucks really bad but they're quick to fix it and make it right. The beer specials are super tight ( no doubt about that ) and the waitress are always super polite and nice ( shake your hand and introduce themselves ) they have a frozen margarita that is super cool ( no pun intended ) read more

Excellent food, great service and what a thrilling vibe in their atmosphere. Most grills and bars you want find strawberry spinach salads (JJ's Grill) has it with mouth watering grilled chicken option. Fair prices filling foods which are full of flavor to savor and fill ya while thrilling ya. Get the Arkansas cocktail you'll love it. I can't wait to go back, it's 10:30 pm and we went there for mid afternoon delight and I'm still satisfied plus my buzz is ready to put to bed 8 hours later. read more

We're in town for the Arkansas State Youth Bowling tournament. 14 of us, ages 6 - over 60 years of age came in this evening. With a little bit of advance notice they easily had all of us together and eating at the same time too! Food was great -something for everyone in our group. Kids eat free on Saturday night and Military discount was an added bonus! Thanks for the Wonderful dinner and Service! read more

The manager's boyfriend will try to start a fight with you if he sees you talk to her, but if they got that under control it would be my favorite place in town read more

I have heard a lot of hype about JJ's since it opened last year. The parking seems to stay full and I just assumed the food was as good as people say it is. I finally had a chance to go early Saturday evening, around 5:00pm. And I have to say this is another case where the quality of the food just did not live up to the hype. Atmosphere: Your typical sports bar-type environment. Seating was comfortable. Noise-level was kinda loud and they were maybe 2/3 full. Food: I ordered the BIG BAD JACK BURGER, which their menus says has: "double patty w/ chipotle creme cheese, bacon, sweet n' spicy green pepper jelly". I asked my waitress twice if they cooked burgers to order and she said yes, so I requested medium rare; the burger came cooked medium-well. Also, I am convinced the burgers were made from frozen patties. You would think by looking at the ingredients the burger would have some spicy heat to it and it did not. The chipotle *cream cheese was a thin schmear on the top bun and the pepper jelly was a thin layer of pepper jelly bought from the grocery store and not made in-house. A very underwhelming burger. I did try some of the spinach dip, which was pretty decent. I ordered a slice of cheese cake, which plainly came out of a box with some syrup poured on top. Service: The service was just okay. The waitresses seemed a little too busy chatting it up with guys sitting at the bar to pay much attention to their customers and she came off as being rather disinterested and terse whenever she was at our table. This was a very underwhelming experience. I might give it another try, though I definitely will steer clear of the burgers. If you're looking for a place to unwind over a drink or catch a game, then this might be a good option for you, but I wouldn't recommend going for the food. read more

Great food and an excellent atmosphere. I had the Cuban sandwich. Pulled pork, ham, Swiss cheese, mustard and pickle on a hoagie roll. I love a good Cuban sandwich and this place hits the mark. The deep fried mushrooms are perfectly done as well as the fried banana peppers, which I highly suggest! They also have a spinach and strawberry salad with walnuts, feta cheese and a raspberry vinaigrette that's fabulous. Give it a try folks. read more

Stopped here for dinner while staying the night in aft. Smith. Place was hopping with great music. We also caught the very end of happy hour and the place was packed. We were seated quickly and given drinks. It took a bit to get menus brought to us. We ordered the cheese fries as an appetizer and it was huge and tasty. My husband had the chipotle chicken wrap. He said it was delicious and huge. He could only eat half. I had the friend catfish basket. Fish was fresh and friend perfectly. After we finished, it took a while to locate our waitress. Once we found her, she took care of us immediately. If you're in the area, this is a great place to eat. Their happy hour specials looked like a great value and kids eat free every day! read more

I was very disappointed here. The food was outrageously expensive for what you got, and they even charged nearly .75 cents per side sauce, such as ketchup. Something I could've gotten at sonic for $8 turned into $20 for one meal at an obnoxiously decorated, loud, glorified bar and "grill". Other than that, the wait staff was nice and they seemed to have a decent drink selection. read more

Very disappointing food is average music on the porch was too loud. Weak drinks and pretty average food it could be a nice setting with the outdoor porch We asked 3 times for the music to be turned down to some degree read more

If you love great burgers, cold beer and waitresses in short skirts then this is the place. Seems like a great, fun hangout but like so many sports bars the service is not always the best. read more

Food was subpar, service even worse. Asked for fish and chips with a side of slaw. Got fish and slaw, no fries. Fish was old, slaw ok. My co-worker asked for Tito's and tonic, got a sweet tea! Seriously???? The place stays packed, not sure why, except for maybe the girls in the skirts, t-shirt and cowboy boots. The only saving grace is dollar beer during happy hour, limited times though. Don't even bother! read more

The service and food are always great! The severs are always smiling and look like they're having fun. We have never received bad service. I suggest The Man on the Wall read more

Soggy chips, crappy service, and no personality at all. I have visited this place several times and it just keeps getting worse.

A great place to have some good food and a beer. Like that I can bring the whole family. Prices are about right for the area. Not a real fan of live music night but like the game days. read more
