It was your average café meal in an average café atmosphere. The menu was a bit more limited than some others I've tried in town, but it definitely had what you'd expect from a hometown café. The cheeseburger was good and the chicken strips were as well. Emily's is your average café.

I get to the house to break this up and look at the portion of fries for $8 I'm like HELL NO, this is a joke. Who the cook did was take shortcuts. Serve the ppl who ordered and took some fries from their plate/meal and put them in my container as a half cheese fry.. this is funny.

I asked him to show me their policy or find an Arkansas law stating that and he could never find one. When we left, the waitress was whispering to her coworkers, pointed at me and then they all turned around and looked at me. I walked back in and told her that I knew she was talking about me and the only reason she got a tip was because of my friend. Overall, I'm very disappointed with the service I received tonight and do not recommend this location.

Buttery, soft, hubby and I shared 1 and could barely finish it coz of our other orders. I ordered their chicken avocado club but asked them to replace the bread into their parmesan sourdough bread. It was delicious! Hubby ordered chicken fried steak with 2 sides and eggs. We chose the grits and biscuits. The grits was so tasty and creamy. I dont even like grits! The chicken fried steak was perfectly cooked! Not too oily (we've tried a lot that were. But not this one!) Crispy, soft, Tasty. Also ordered bread pudding French toast. This was soooo good. Wasn't even as sweet as it looks which made it even better! Drizzle of maple syrup made it perfect!

They weren't overly busy so I was seated and served right away. One thing that I really appreciated is that the food came out hot, not just warm enough to be passable. My server was very candid with me when I asked her about various menu items. She steered me away from a couple of things I was considering. They weren't bad food items, just not what I was looking for after explaining to her what I was wanting. I very much appreciated that level of honesty. The food was exactly what I'd expect from a café like this - average food but good food. I really enjoyed the breading on my chicken fried chicken; and, the mashed potatoes tasted like homemade. I'll definitely be back!
