The staff went out of their way to correct a mistake. I hadn't even realized that I was charged extra for something accidentally but then they immediately fixed the problem for me and were extremely nice. The food is pretty good and while some of it is expensive, they have other amazing options for great value. read more

It has great vibes and is super cute! My Hugo spritz was one of the best I've had. There was an issue with getting food. I first ordered a salad...that they no longer sold but was on the menu. Then I ordered the charcuterie board...that they were out of. Then I picked a burger. It was okay, nothing special. The meat was a little tough. I'd come back for drinks and maybe a snack but not for a meal. The service was service. Nothing bad but nothing outstanding. read more

Sterling is amazing !!! Beautiful spot. Upcoming area. The goods are Bomb !!! Blueberry cream cheese muffin!!! So bomb. So moist. So much goodness. It's a good size. I love the texture on the top. So good Banana bread with caramel. Moist. Lots of banana flavor but not too sweet with the caramel. I need to come back for the chocolate cake. It' looks amazing !!! I don't think you can go wrong with anything from here read more

Best salad in Little Rock as of this review! (Little Gems, although the Simple is a close backup and the Caesar is delightful). All protein/sides dinner entrees I've had over the past two years are well portioned, well executed, and seasonal. Big plus is we can feed the meat eaters and the vegans in our family from one menu because they have some exceptional small plates and sides that are heavy veg or carb (tempura veggies! Cornbread! Roasted carrots with chimichurri!). Desserts here are exceptional...just...try them. Any of them! Their pastry chef is talented. The ambiance is really lovely - contemporary and clean (even the bathrooms thankfully), although I've had more than one occasion where my table / booth is so wobbly i feel like I'm dining in a train car. Outside you can catch an awesome sunset in the summer / fall at dinner time. Plus, the alley area is such an innovation physically space for something a bit more festive like brunch or their Wednesday trivia. My servers are always nice and kitchen staff have been accommodating to us with young kids. Some servers are top notch attentive and swift, and some are a bit delayed and clumsy, which is, frankly, a cut above in Little Rock. read more

Came here for a team work dinner and it was fantastic. The entree selections cant be beat with fresh ingredients and affordable. I could not pass up the dessert booth that hits you when you first walk in. On this night there was music in the courtyard as well. This is a great spot in Little Rock and I will be back. read more

Weak service and menu limitations made today's visit tough. Maybe future visits will be better.

First the Service with Ingrid is the reason to get at least two stars. The margarita was also good. The Sterling Cesar was nothing special. The Jamon pizza was awful. First a pile of raw arugula in middle. It's not ham as most know it. It's a bacon looking but pungent and taste worse. Of course ambience great as always. Management did take pizza off. I would stick with brunch see my other review. read more

Young woman working the front was very helpful. Food was very average. Pizza crust didn't have h flavor and there was a good amount of red sauce not topped with cheese. Caesar salad had too much dressing and quite a bit of brown lettuce. Triple cooked potatoes were the best part of the meal. Restaurant wasn't busy. We took food to go but inside of restaurant was nice and looks like their baked goods could be tasty. read more

I went twice, once for dinner and once to study with friends. The disco fries and cornbread are insane, and so are the pastries and breakfast sandwich. The service is amazing here, Ingrid is so nice! I definitely want to come back and try more things. read more

Here is a wonderful little secret located on Shall Avenue in the shadow of eStem school and the former HQ of Heifer Intl. I haven't had everything on the menu but I'm getting close, so let's start out with the average stuff (there really isn't anything below average that I've experienced). First, if you're going here for NYC wait service, they haven't found it. On several occasions my waiter was talking on his phone while we waited for first touch on a not so busy post-lunch rush. Everything and everyone is visible at Sterling. The overwhelming average thing I've experienced here is the pizza. Simply nothing remarkable about the taste. The dough does not contribute much although it is crunchy and good. Even the spicy sausage pizza was kinda bland and unforgivably skimpy on the sausage (there should be multiple protein samples affecting the taste in every slice) and the sausage was not spicy. At all. End product did not match the picture. Better than I can make, but for $18, this is not a destination dish. That is it for the average. Everything else I've tasted-- and I mean everything-- is a winner with special merits to the pastry chef and the people of the bakery. Excellent cheesecake (although the blueberry topping may want to be revisited for a little more pizzaz and gloss), excellent "bars" and cookies, cakes and doughnuts. But the crown of the bakery is undoubtedly the bread. If you're a sourdough fan, I don't know if there's a better spot in Little Rock. The bread fuels an outstanding array of sandwiches with a toss-up of the best of the best between the BLTA ( A for avocado atop perhaps the best BLT' I've ever experienced) and the Croque Monsieur. I admit I haven't tried the burger or chicken sandwich because the alternate choices are frankly more enticing. You may judge a place by its burger first, but I reason there's plenty of time for that. Excellent breakfast too although the menu could perhaps use a waffle offering (an occasional waffle special?). And lots of good choices for the vegetarian, too. I don't usually drink much so can't help you on bar offerings. Great place for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner in comfortable surroundings. Rewards program. read more

Went here for the first time recently, and I had a great experience! We tried a couple different cocktails: tiki-la marg, heat of autumn, and sangre marg. All were great! Fun flavors, well balanced, and definitely worth having another round of. Had the skillet cornbread (love that it is gluten free). It was delicious! It was good cornbread with a solid honey butter that went with it. Ate the whole thing! Went also ordered the butcher plate with chef's sausage. All of it was good! The pickled cauliflower was next level. Whatever the sausage was was equally amazing. read more

Now come on....how has this place been a secret. I know it's been here, I've heard about it....just no idea why we've never gone. It was so good!! With the fall weather coming in their outdoor dining experience is exceptional! We ordered the house pickles...pretty solid. A pickled cauliflower was both unique and enjoyable. Picked green beans...yup it works. The smoked onion dip...this app...we couldn't stop eating. It hit the spot today. The cornbread...do you ever have food that just flashes back a memory you've long forgot. My wife who is a true southerner cried and loved this cornbread. It reminded her of her late mother's corn bread. That's saying something. I had the pork chops. I loved how they presented it. It was a perfect medium cook, pre sliced and the knife...ok fancy. The green beans were a sugar soy sauce type green beans. My wife makes a version for the holidays. When I noticed that...it hit me. This is a family, southern style restaurant. She had the market steak. We aren't fans of NY strip. The gristle, the fat on the steak for us can be off putting. But...for a market steak it was really good. The way it was prepped and the salsa verde was so fresh...it tasted perfectly. The only food item we didn't like was the potato salad...it was too clean tasting. Like shampoo style. It needed salt and lemon or acidity to change the profile. Also the greens...it should've been cooked down more and needed more spice. That was the only thing we didn't love. The kids cheeseburger with gruyere cheese was very good. I can't wait to try their pizza. The whole atmosphere, service, food, music, it was a place that did not feel like LR. It reminded me of a place in Charlotte. We will be back and more regularly for sure. read more

This place was a great surprise to us. We had the double hamburger and the nachos, and they were both delicious! (I would put the hamburger on the top 5 list of burgers in the area.) We enjoyed the atmosphere and our service was great. We can't wait to try it again! read more

Delicious food and drinks! we came in at 3pm which meant we got their dinner menus. We ordered way too much pizza thinking they were personal sized. oops! I highly recommend the cherry blossom sake cocktail (not pictured) and the fungi pizza. The disco fries were also fantastic. The meat was so tender that it melts in your mouth. read more

Perfect lunch! Our family of four, two adults and two teenagers, on the road traveling back to home, road weary, eating out weary, this was it to pick us back up for more traveling. I had the best salad, called Little Gems with perfectly cooked chicken, flavor, and crunch the rest of the family had pizza, one was the funghi pizza with a perfect carmelized glaze to the top (WOW!!!) and the margherita pizza another winner with my meat lover son. We will not forget this place. When we were done and stuffed we took a nice walk down by the river and poked around by the Clinton Presidential Library. And on we go back on the road. We will be back as much as we can! read more

The sterling burger was amazing ! Crispy potatoes were the perfect amount of crunch, still soft & fluffy in the middle though. Service was exceptional. Elly was an amazing server. Checking on us, refilling drinks, overall the best service I've gotten in Little Rock. Positive atmosphere, dog friendly patio, good food ! Sorry no pictures, I devoured the food! Thanks Sterling Market! read more

This place is so cute and has delicious food! It is smaller on the inside than I expected but love the concept. Waitress was very nice. The skillet cornbread was the best cornbread I've ever had. Just the right amount of heat and sweet with the Serrano peppers, cheddar cheese and honey on top. Delicious! I also had the frisée salad with bacon lardons and a poached egg. Also delicious and fresh. Would come back here again. Cute little bakery and gift shop inside as well with things for sale such as local honey. read more

The food here is so good. I attended a private event on Friday night that served pizza, a variety of charcuterie meats, and pickled vegetables. Everything was so good that I went back the following day for brunch. The cornbread is the best I've ever had and the breakfast sandwich with sugar cured ham on a fresh croissant was delicious. My dad enjoyed the biscuits with sausage gravy topped with scrambled eggs. Servings are huge. We brought home leftovers and enjoyed the meal again on Sunday! Our server, Maddie, was friendly and made great suggestions. She made our dining experience even better. read more

This place is so casual that when you walk in. You have no ideas you're about to get your taste buds fucked up! We got the cornbread as an appetizer. The exterior was so crispy and the inside was so gooey and it paired so well with the butter and honey. The pot roast I had was braised and served with gravy over grits. It was the most tender, succulent, and moist cut of chuck I have ever had in my life. Also got the brussel sprouts and they were great, wife had the chicken fricasé and it was amazing. 11 out of 10 would eat again. read more

This place is phenomenal. The quality of the food was unexpected. Sourdough pizza that is just like Neopolitan style. The drinks are made right. We had 8 people for a private eclipse view and we're treated with excellent service by the owner Fidel and every one who worked there. If you live in LR or are visiting, do yourself a favor and check it out. read more

Ambience: The restaurant has four food areas to choose from: bakery, pizza, butcher, and greens. Offers regular seating and seating at the bar. This spot has a beautifully simplistic aesthetic and a laid back vibe. Service: Everyone I came in contact was friendly and helpful especially the bar staff. Food: So far, I have tried the following: crispy potatoes (snack portion), donuts (glaze and chocolate), blueberry muffin, and the Piñata Party (drink). Potatoes: Price point and quantity was great, just wished I could have paired them with ketchup and that the potatoes had some sort of seasoning on them. Pastries: The glaze was tasty but the blueberry muffin was the winner. The muffin was dense, moist, and had pinches of cheese hidden in its goodness. The sweetness off the blueberries and cheese paired perfectly together. Drink: I tried the Piñata Party from the bar and YES it was the perfect party, Lol. Strength,taste, and price point were all perfect. My friend had pizza. I visited during one of their "soft opening" weeks. Can't wait to visit again, try some new menu items, and see their developments. read more

I really want to love this place. We've had a decent breakfast here but when we decided to try dinner, it was extremely disappointing. The pizza was weird tasking, the tough is not great. The market steak was horrible. It was tough and chewy and it was not overcooked. Cooked medium rare and so hard to eat. The only good thing is the bakery. The service is good and the ambience is nice. But dinner meals are disappointing. read more

The food and service is awesome!! I had the smoked chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Make sure to try the cornbread. It's the best I have ever eaten.

Awkward layout, but a unique concept nonetheless. Cornbread was really really good, but everything else fairly average. Service was OK.

It's 10:45am on Friday and empty. Came over from across the street at Fidel & Co coffee house which was packed with people inside. 95 degrees outside so nice to be in AC. Pizza was good, and I liked the amount of sauce on it which added to its nice flavor. The pizza was bigger that expected so good to share with one other person. By the time I left around 11:30 the place was filling up and it was getting fairly noisy, maybe due to the large open space, or the several small children, or both, not sure. Overall nice little place with several food options for dining. read more

A must-stop spot in Little Rock! First time dining here with my family while visiting from Chicago--and wow, Sterling Market did not disappoint. We ordered off the lunch menu and everything was on point. The sourdough pizza crust was next-level, and the sandwiches on their fresh-baked breads were absolutely killer. Prices were super reasonable, especially for scratch-made, farm-to-table fare. The vibe is charming too--part café, part gourmet market, with cute merch and tempting baked goods on display. Already planning our next visit! read more

To start off we had a sweet and wonderful waitress . First of all . We had not been to the market since last spring . I was surprised with an empty place you were not allowed to seat yourself we were seated where the a/c was frigid and i had to step outside to warm up . The tasty olive appetizer was ample for $8.00 and the $6.50 roasted herbed peanuts were not roasted to peak flavor and the herbs were not very flavorful and they were unpeeled redskin peanuts not very high on the mouth feel they would have tasted better without skins and salted . The charcuterie was very stingy for $19.99 the meat very dry and the cheese was grocery store fodder . unflavored yellow cheese. Accompanied by a low flavor preserve and a cold poached egg i missed a little mustard or chili pepper to brighten the flavor. The skillet fried honey cornbread was delicious it could have used more honey perhaps ask for more on the side . We ordered an olive oil orange small cake that was good but the orange flavoring was too bitter . The atmosphere is nice modern and up beat . I want this place to be better it's fun to visit but not on my weekly list . We have had their pizza in the past it was very good . read more
