    The Strawberry Pie is to die for!!
    Rick B.

    Wow! There aren't a lot of upscale resturants in this part of the Ozarks; in fact - this is the only one we've found. The rustic exterior and casual ambiance belie the high-quality food. Park in the small lot, or on the historic streets of downtown Leslie. Walk in and be seated by the hostess, although there may be a short wait during peak dinner hours. Do not leave! The food is worth waiting for! Ryan's offers soft drinks, tea, and an interesting assortment of beer and affordable wines. Our drinks came quickly. Steaks are available after 5pm, and my sirloin steak was on-point - full of flavor and cooked exactly as I requested! My side salad was small but fresh, and I'm glad I opted for home-made chips becuse they were very good! My wife loved her Grilled Shrimp with rice and onion rings. But then came the highlight of the meal: Strawberry Pie!! Words fail to convey how good this pie was! Utterly fantastic! It is worth the drive just to enjoy dessert! We will return many times!!

    Mouth watering steaks that need nothing added, amazing grilled veggies, and fantastic desserts. Waitress was super friendly and great at answering questions. Can be a little loud inside, but not overwhelming! Spend the extra money on the bigger steak and have another meal for later.

    Ride along RT66 and you will find this gem in Leslie Arkansas. Staff are awesome. We had just went down river for 6hrs and found an Oasis.

    Awesome Oasis off RT66. Great staff and food combination. Try the pies and quesadillas. Suggest picking up food from there before going on River.

    This is one of the places in Searcy county Arkansas where the local go. We have been several times. Always good food but always busy! Very nice staff good atmosphere. Prices are as reasonable as anywhere these days. I think the steak dinner cost between $30-$40. Of course that depends on size and cut. Seasoned very well. We asked for A-1. Waitress said, "I will bring it but you won't need it". We did not need it!

    Waiting, and waiting

    our car club was in leslie for the jeepin it classy car show. about 20 of us went to ryans to eat, a couple of members remembered eating here in the past and said they were good. awards for the show were to be given at 1:30 pm. We had reservations at opening, noon, and thought 1 1/2 hrs should be enough time, right? Well, we ordered at 12:15, recieved food at 2:15, and while the steak was good, you only get a steak, no bread no butter, no side thats all extra! The 6oz fillet was $35, tiny baked potato with butter only $6, carrot cake to go $9, so total bill, $62, and still hungary! Would not ever go back, and absolutly would not recommend to anybody!

    The steaks are excellent as well as the burgers. The atmosphere is fun and inviting. There was a wait, but it was worth it.

    Great atmosphere and nice staff. Bar drinks are on point and fairly priced. I do feel as if the food is overpriced for the portion given.

    Service was good but the grilled shrimp plate was sub par. Vegetables were greasy and the shrimp was pan spread and not grilled. Ugh....

    I spent the day hyping up this restaurant, to my visiting relatives expecting the same great meal…read morewe had a year ago, only to be completely let down and have the rumors I refused to believe be confirmed. From the moment we arrived, our waitress seemed in no hurry and was forgetful to say the least. It took multiple requests just to get a kids' menu, and our drinks sat empty for nearly 30+minutes. She never cleared our table of bread, salad, or soup plates, so we ended up stacking them on the concrete wall beside us as we finished each course--simply because we couldn't stand the clutter anymore. About 10 minutes before the main course was served, she returned to tell me they had run out of filets and asked what I'd like instead. I switched to a ribeye. Our food finally arrived around 8:30, even though we were seated at 6:45--an hour and forty-five minutes later. During that time, I spoke with Leroy, the owner, more than I did with our waitress the entire evening. To top it off, she added an automatic 20% gratuity for our table of seven--four adults and three children. We're generous tippers, but jt was blatantly obvious she was coasting through the night knowing the tip was guaranteed. When the ribeye finally arrived, it was one of the toughest cuts I've ever been served--full of tendons and gristle, and certainly not worth the $40+ price tag. Honestly, I could have picked up a pack of two better ribeyes at Walmart for the price I paid for the one I didn't even eat tonight. When I mentioned my disappointment with the steak, she seemed unfazed. The only redeeming parts of the evening were the view, a cup of soup, and the vanilla crème brûlée. I made an effort to express my disappointment before leaving with zero effort on her part to engage in a solution. So I tried calling on the way home to speak with someone--no answer. So here we are..... our entire table left disappointed! It was especially embarrassing after I'd talked the place up so much--only to end the night with a $320 bill and a thoroughly underwhelming experience.

    We had their delicious turkey burgers and the view of the lake was magnificent. All around the…read morerestaurant were beautiful flowering trees.
