Second time dining here, just as spectacular as the first. Valet parking is a big plus in this part of Little Rock! Service was quick and friendly. We lucked out as they had the lobster bisque. Steak was exceptionally tender and perfectly seared as requested. No room for anything sweet after such a huge cut. Definitely the best Steakhouse in Downtown area, possibly the city. read more

I don't understand how this place could have a four star average -- I just had a ribeye steak that was INSANELY great! And the au gratin potatoes were something to write home about! Anytime I'm in Little Rock, I'll be back to this place for sure! Highly, highly recommended! read more

Sonny Williams' Steak Room - And utterly amazing ribeye steak!! - Steakhouses Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

The best location in LR. The only place to go to the airport and get your ticket in the airport was in a small airport. But overall I'd say it was a 5 star review! Perfect for business or pleasure. read more

Excellent food and service! Perfect for special occasions. My wife and I typically get a ribeye or filet as well as a seafood item. The desserts are always top notch, too. read more

If you love steak, you must try Sonny Williams' Steak Room! I am a steak lover through and through and this restaurant had some of the best steak that I have had in years. The crust on my steak was amazing and perfectly seasoned. My husband's was the same and the service was great as well. There was even a live pianist playing fun Christmas songs! There was a small miscommunication when we walked in. We had called ten minutes prior as it was a Friday night at 7pm. We asked what the wait was and they said that there was no wait but when we arrived they said they were pretty fully booked with reservations for the evening. In the end we were able to be sat right away but it seemed a bit odd. The busser ran over right away to offer us water and was very kind and kept our glasses topped off all night. Our server was incredibly kind and checked in on us periodically as it was a busy Friday night. Finally, the food was simply amazing. Our appetizer was the Spinach Artichoke Dip with Crustini and this was great. As two people we ate the whole thing (and then regretted not being able to try dessert). The dish was seasoning incredibly well, it was clear the artichoke is seasoned beforehand which is a nice surprise as most dips have plain artichoke straight from the jar. My New York Strip was cooked perfectly and although I didn't get any optional sauces, the steak did not need it at all. The crust on the steak was so flavorful and they even garnish the plate edges with season salt (think classic lawry's season salt). The sautéed asparagus was perfectly cooked and I would definitely order it again. The potatoes au gratin were under seasoned but nothing some salt and pepper from the table couldn't fix. My husband got the filet mignon and was also crusted beautifully. He said that the béarnaise choice went perfect with the filet and he highly recommends. His mashed potatoes were plated beautifully (whipped and piped) and the first few bites were great but their method of plating caused the mashed potatoes to get hard within a couple minutes. For example, the potatoes quickly developed a crust which is a little unappealing. The brussels sprouts were also much softer and wetter than expected for a roasted Brussels sprouts so we would recommend going in another direction for your vegetable. We will definitely be coming back again and hopefully saving some room for dessert! read more

Harry the bartender is my favorite!! Very accommodating and thoughtful. I ordered the ribeye and it was delicious and I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. Piano music on a Tuesday? It was nice. Will return read more

I've eaten at Sonny's 7 or 8 times. Probably 3 of the visits, the food was amazing! The other times it was average at best. Our most recent visit, I ordered the 10 oz filet for $66. I told the server I liked it "somewhere between medium and medium well." He called it "medium plus." When it came out, the entire outside was very charred, but I cut into it to find the inside was significantly undercooked. I showed it to the server and asked his opinion, and he told me it was medium rare and that he'd take it back. When it returned several minutes later, there was hardly a trace of pink on the inside (definitely well done), and the outside was so charred it made a loud crunch with every bite. I didn't want to send it back again because my wife was already done eating by then, so I just bathed it in A1 and dealt with it. Our server and hostess were friendly. The live piano was a very nice touch. Overall, my experiences here have been hit-or-miss, which is disappointing when you're spending $66 and may get a really bad steak. read more

Food and Service was excellent. Will definitely visit next time I'm in town! Amazing dinner !

My family of 3 goes to SW once a year. It's our Christmas tradition. This may be our last year because when you spend $300+ on one meal you expect nothing but the best, right? We didn't get that this year. Our meal consisted of two alcoholic drinks, an appetizer, three entrees and one dessert for $317. The charcuterie board appetizer is $44, is it worth that? Not really. It's good but they fill it with grapes, pickles and olives and skimp on the meats and cheeses. Two of our entrees has steaks which were phenomenal but the sides were average at best. Garlic mashed potatoes with no flavor and sautéed green beans again with no flavor. The third entree was a lobster tail that was a tad over cooked with a side of macaroni and cheese floating in cheese colored water. The waiter did take the Mac n cheese back and replace it with a thicker yet flavorless version. Dessert: they offered 4 different options and my daughter chose cheesecake. It was overcooked. We were pretty disappointed in general. Our waiter was phenomenal and let us know it was a busy night and things might take a while but we didn't mind that. We did mind, however, being seated next to a large party of very loud adults. We barely spoke to each other for most of our meal because we couldn't hear across our own table. To wrap things up they charge their customer the fee they should be eating at the credit card machine. I spent $300 and they couldn't waive the $8.22 credit card fee?! Rude. read more

We went with friends, making us a 4-top. Hostess sat us right away (but our friends had made reservations). The table server however was very slow with taking drink orders and the taking food orders). We waited quite sometime for food, and then one entire meal was missing. it took another 20min to get the 4th meal. (We all had steaks). Although we are not ones to ask for discounts due to such, we do expect the staff and/or mgmt to recognize such a downfall. (i mean 3/4 meals on table?) to just offer the discount or comp a drink instead. food was superb, but less star rating due to service and no mgmt attentiveness. Valet service was very prompt and friendly I might add. read more

Best ribeye steak I've had here. So tender and juicy. Definitely recommmed. Skip the mash potato's though. Not made from Scratch. Steak was bomb. My friend had the porter house and really enjoyed that too. Also had live piano player, that was really nice too. Loved the ambience. read more

Made reservations over the phone. We walked in and were immediately seated. The (recorded) music was a poor choice and annoying. Only a song later an actual pianist started playing. He played well. The restaurant wasn't busy. Only a few other tables on a weeknight when we arrived I didn't have any expectations of this restaurant as I had never heard of it and l didn't pick it. The salad options lacked description in the menu. The server didn't make it sound any more appealing than the lack luster menu did. I would've liked a salad or starter but nothing sounded good. Same goes for the cocktails. I'm not sure if they're good quality or not but they didn't sound like it so I went with wine. Would've preferred to save wine for dinner. The steak was great. We loved the charred crust on both the steaks we ordered. The au gratin potatoes lacked flavor. The green beans were good and the broccoli okay (additional fee to substitute these in lieu of green beans). The desserts are home made. The brownie okay, but thin; the cheesecake was better. If the steak wouldn't have been as good as it was, this place would've got 3 stars. read more

After a long travel day, I decided to give Sonny Williams a try. It came highly recommended from a friend. When I entered the restaurant I was promptly greeted. I was asked about seat preference. I opted for the bar as they are full service and I wanted to watch sports. The bartender greeted me provided me with a cup of ice water and took my drink order. I ordered a Pomegranate Martini . He made my drink and offered bread and butter. I had questions about the menu and he gave good suggestions. I ordered the lamb chops with the goat cheese on the side for my entree. The lamb was seasoned to perfection and cooked to the proper temp. For dessert I asked what was his favorites he mentioned the Bread Pudding and the Crème Brûlée. After eating bread and butter and my meal I decided on the smaller portioned Creme Brûlée. It did not disappoint. Service was top tier and delivered with a smile. The waitstaff worked together to make the dining experience a pleasant one. The piano player gave the perfect ambiance for a date night. If you're in the area I highly recommend you stop in and dine. read more

Service seemed slow. Wedge salad was about 1/2 of what it was last time we were there. 3% charge for cc. Can we have an option to substitute for the green beans? read more

Great atmosphere with piano music playing in the background. Huge portion sizes. Had courtesy valet parking which was perfect as the location makes for difficult parking otherwise. We shared a porterhouse and had leftovers. The servers were very attentive to our water glasses and we didn't feel rushed during our meal. read more

Fantastic news experience at Sonny Williams. Martha was our guide through the dining process and was spot on with recommendations. We started with the calamari (order it or miss out) and it was amazing. For main course got the ribeye mid rare and was cooked perfectly. Desert was bread pudding and best I've ever had. Overall perfect dining experience. read more

I am a sucker for mom and pop shops. First walking in was greeted at the front door. Then again checking in writ the host. I did not have a reservation and was able to be seated immediately on the enclosed outdoor patio overlooking the start of downtown Arkansas. Lighters are dimmed with a nice white drape over each table scarlet curtains. I would say affordable fancy. Music a bit strange. Live piano playing however they are playing modern music over the speakers kinda confusing. Maybe just a slight oversight for the moment. staff was friendly, I did feel a bit rushed to order. Food taste fresh well seasoned. I very much enjoy a good Ribeye and this did not disappoint with an eye opening 18 oz bone out or 25 oz bone in you can't go wrong. The place could use a bit of TLC but it's not a resort steak house again it is a mom and pop shop and I'm very much onboard with supporting your communities small businesses. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Sonny Williams. The food was amazing, our waiter John was a true gem. I have a food allergy and he really worked with me on making sure I would have an enjoyable meal. The restaurant itself was inviting and perfect for a date night out. It was quiet enough that we could actually carry on a conversation and hear each other. Would recommend this restaurant to everyone who comes through Little Rock. read more

Food is great. However, Ryan the bartender is very rude and judges customers for what they choose to drink. He continued to make fun of us for the cocktails we chose loudly with another customer while we were still at the bar. Extremely unprofessional. read more

Amazing experience tonight. We have eaten here before, but it's been several years ago. Everyone was so friendly! Our waiter, Joel was the best. Very attentive, but not bothersome at all. Food was excellent. We both had filets. Sides were au gratin potatoes, garlic mashed potatoes, and asparagus with blue cheese crumbles. All was perfectly cooked and amazing. I got a piece of cheesecake with caramel to go and it was great as well. We will be back soon! read more

We were looking forward to a special Valentines dinner in an intimate setting. What we got was barely arm's length from neighboring tables. That said, the piano music was lovely. The Caesar salad was ok, but the wedge came with huge red onion slices and hard boiled egg on the side that did not complement the dish. And why were the blue cheese crumbles on the side?Bread was sad. Filets overcooked and green beans took up much of plate. My wife's mashed potatoes looked slopped on and took up half the plate. Deserts--bread pudding and chocolate crème brulet--were fine. Service overall .good, but not $300 good for two plus tip for valet. Much better steaks elsewhere in Little Rock. BTW, the cat did not eat the bite of leftover steak we gave her. read more

This must be local favorite. I did not see the appeal. Our waiter was a robot. He could have left a tablet at the table and I could have handled the entire transaction. We ordered the crab cake appetizer. Save your money. They were soggy and surrounded by a Cajun sauce that tasted like powder. Then our dinner arrived, but let's stick with our used silverware. The rib eye was very good. Sorry excuse for potatoes au gratin. They should be embarrassed about their signature green beans. read more

4 adults and a 10 year old daughter was forced to pay 20% tip that totaled 62 dollars, service was good but NO where near 62 dollars worth and why charge us as a party of 5 with a child ? Food was amazing yes as always, however this fantastic restaurant has NO SWEET TEA really man ? Our bill was 411.00 that included a forced 62 dollar tip. Server brought our food checked on us a couple of times and 62 bucks ? Why ?same policy if she was 5 years old ? Oh well lesson learned this is Arkansas. Dude that refilled our water was nicer and was at our table more than Amanda was. Get the cold smoked pork chop Holy Jesus it was good, no sweet tea lol whatever. I'll think twice about going there again. read more

Eat here! We had a fantastic dinner here last night. The French onion soup is great and the ribeye was cooked to perfection. Their signature green beans are tasty and the bartender made a perfect martini with blue cheese olives. The best part of the evening was the piano man! We sat at the piano and had dinner (a first for me) and he played everything from Queen to the theme to Young and Restless to Amazing Grace! On break he visited with us- what a nice, kind man. He made our evening even better. read more

Ok not great. High end steakhouse prices but not high end experience ( I'm not afraid of price but want to match up with food etc. was just at a steakhouse in Charleston 2 days prior for double the price & will be giving them 5 stars. ) Steaks we had 2 Fillets, a ribeye & a NY. 2 of steaks ordered medium Rare came out medium well to well done. Sent one back & they did correct situation. But at a steakhouse ( that wasn't very busy) wouldn't expect overcooked steak by a lot. Sides/Appys- green beans - wasn't a fan but I guess people like as they are served with all steaks, Calamari- good -lightly fried, French onion soup- good, Brussels sprouts- terrible- basically uncooked not the way anyone else is serving them, Cesar - ok, loaded baked potatoes good. Waiter was a pretty good - attentive most of meal. Might go back if in the city but would order steaks at a temperature below what want read more

This place is old school all the way. It's dark, filled with pictures of the old "rat pack" with old tunes playing through the sound system. Waiters have bow ties and the ambiance is very heavy and dark. That aside, the food is pretty good, although pricey for Little Rock. Dinner for two of us with drinks ran over $150 so know before you go. I had the NY strip steak and my friend had the fish of the day. We split a Caesar salad as our first course as it wasn't offered as a side. It was plenty big to share. My NY strip steak was perfectly cooked and was quite large. I barely ate half of it which was too bad as there was no way that I could take it back to my hotel with me. I also had a baked potato which was also quite tasty. The wine list is extensive so even the pickiest wine drinker in your group will be able to find something that they like at a price they are willing to pay. Service was spot on with our food coming up quickly and our server having good suggestions on the best things to order. All in all- it was a great dinner! Probably just a bit more expensive than I was expecting in Little Rock. read more

Starting with a relaxer followed by a blue cheese wedge ribeye, bread, stuffed baked potato and green beans. Delish. Hope to go again.
