Stopped by for dinner on our way through Joplin. Glad we did!…read more I ordered the new Chicken Potpie. I was warned that it would be bubbling hot because they cook it in the pizza oven, it wasn't a lie! I love my food hot! I even had to blow on it to cool it down. It wasn't perfection...only thing that would have been better is to have some potatoes in it, but it still was delicious. There was a good amount of chicken too, I'm stuffed and couldn't eat it all...I tried! Hubby had the Soy Glazed Salmon. It came with rice and broccoli. He really enjoyed it. It came highly recommended by Boston, our server. Great recommendation! Boston kept our drinks full and was very attentive. We will ask for his section when we are back in town. Bathrooms were clean and the restaurant was pretty full on a Sunday night. Definitely will go back when we are in the area! I saw a cheeseburger that look good too...next time!

We liked the food here. They did bring me the wrong salad but I ate it anyway as I was starving and…read moreI don't mind a Caesar salad once in a while. I also ordered cheese curds and the were nice and hot. Everyone enjoyed their food. There were 5 of us. The waitress did notice they brought me the wrong salad and she offered to fix it but I said I was fine. I also had the Sunset Beach cocktail and you could definitely taste the blackberry. It was pretty good. We agreed we would eat here again.

We were very excited to take my friend to Kraken Killer Seafood for her birthday, because she loves…read morecrab legs. First thing I noticed is that the menu I was given had a hole in it, and an employee's child was running around the restaurant bothering the guests. The birthday girl ordered crab legs with the lemon pepper sauce: mild. Very soon after she started eating, she noticed that the sauce was not mild. She found it to be very spicy. After awhile, she told the waitress it was too spicy, and she asked for melted butter so she could add it to the sauce and make it less spicy. But it was still too spicy. Then we called the waitress over and told her it was still too spicy. Instead of taking it back and giving my friend a new order, the waitress kept defending it, as if her talking about it being mild would make it mild and thereby change my friend's experience of it being too spicy. The waitress brought my friend another bowl of butter, but by that time, my friend was no longer enchanted with the meal. As we continued eating, all the staff were clattering around, making a racket, moving chairs and even mopping up the floor with a disgusting pan and mop while we were still in the midst of eating. This spoiled my friend's birthday. She said that she would not ever come back to this restaurant. My experience of the food was great. I asked for moderate spice and I liked the flavor and the spiciness. But I was not impressed by the staff. They should have taken my friend's food back and given her a fresh, unspicey meal.

I hate writing negative reviews, but this experience was bad enough that I feel people should know…read morebefore spending their money here. This place has really gone downhill. The food used to be great, which is why we came back, but this visit was incredibly disappointing. The seafood smelled old the moment it came to the table and tasted rancid. It honestly made us question how fresh the food actually is. The drinks were also obviously watered down and lacked any real flavor. What made the experience even worse was the service. Our wait staff barely checked on us the entire meal. Drinks were never refilled, and instead of paying attention to tables, the staff spent most of their time standing around the bar talking. It felt like customers were an inconvenience. After mentioning our experience to others, I realized we are not the only ones noticing the decline in quality and service. I have heard similar complaints from several people recently. I have also heard concerns that many of the glowing reviews may be coming from friends and family rather than actual, unbiased customers. Very disappointing because this used to be a place I enjoyed and recommended. Unfortunately, I will not be returning unless major changes are made.

We arrived at First Seat and it was our first time here. It's a quaint place with 8-10 tables and…read morebar seating. We were lucky enough to grab a table where we could all watch NBA finals. The atmosphere is pleasant and it's not super loud which is nice so we can talk during dinner. Our waitress was on top of her game tonight. She took drink order and was back in a flash with craft beer, wine , and a sweet tea! We then ordered. I had the smash burger double patty and fries. My best friend had the fish and chips. My best friends wife had the cheeseburger and fries The food was out super quick and it was super hot!!!! The food was great. The fries are flat and thin and that was the table favorite. All the food was good. The only thing we would change would maybe toast the buns of the hamburgers. The First Seat is named due to Benton county being the first county seat when Arkansas became a state.

The place was crowded when we first got in. Zero seats. Yet they kept yelling at us to sit anywhere. It's too small. Everything feels like it's never actually deep cleaned. The food was the OK. Barely. Truffle fries were good. Burger 4/10

Can't complain about the prices at all. There are several things I want to try on the menu. They were busy, but our server Gage was super kind and accommodating. My only con is that it's a little crowded. Can't wait to go back!
