A place of this quality in the boonets of Arkansas. This could just as well be a four star eatery in a big city for simple meals. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor, cleanliness are fabulous. Great layout.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The plating is being done by someone who has trained where eyes provide appetite. Possibly Johnson & Wales, but I digress. About three weeks ago on a Friday or Saturday. The Game & Fish we're across the street giving out trees read more

Cute spot with great sandwiches. The club was full of meat. The Reuben on marbled bread was very good! Service was fast and friendly. read more

The food is excellent. The service was impeccable and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambience is very trendy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a little rabbit upholstery on the benches where you wait. It's really cute inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll show you some of the pictures. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's some goldfish inside of a big aquarium. So the atmosphere is so cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The general manager, Kevin, came out and explained that this is the goldfish capital of the United States! so that is pretty cool and he gave us a couple of nice stories about that. The waitress, Carla, was wonderful too! She was very helpful & patient with me after we were in the car all day. I didn't know that bacon came on my burger. so I asked a young man, Dominic, if they could give me crispy bacon and they right away changed it! He gave it to me and they were all so nice about it. We will be coming back here for sure, every time we go back to Michigan. We finally found a really nice place to eat and we really like it. The food was delicious. read more

My husband and I continue to love The Grumpy Rabbit and stop by anytime we get the chance. The service is great and the food is, without fail, delicious. I was afraid I was going to have to downgrade my review because their house carrot/dill dressing was taken off the menu, but thankfully it's back! The service is always good and Kevin (the GM, I think) is a great guy. Five stars. read more

We were in Lonoke for a baseball tournament and wanted a local restaurant to eat dinner before heading back home. The Grumpy Rabbit came up on Yelp so we decided to try it. Boy were we shocked! It was an amazing treasure tucked into this little town. We tried several items from Lasagna, meat loaf, ribeye, and swamp grits. Everything we tried was amazing. The side salads with carrot dill vinaigrette were very good. We have found a new great restaurant that we cannot wait to go again. Staff were great and they said the brunch is great too. read more

Traveling through to an annual convention and found this gem. Spectacular food and even better service. Had the gourmet burger and soooo juicy and flavorful. One of the best Rueben sandwiches we have had. Their roasted carrot vinegarette on our salad was "off the chain" good. The Brussel sprouts appetizer was so crispy light and the dipping sauces were great addition. Highly recommend! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The service, the ambiance and especially the food make this a must stop on our travels now.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Conveniently 1.5 hours from Memphis we now (and the foreseeable future) come here for lunch. My staple is the grilled chicken sandwich. I have no idea how they pack so much flavor into that little sandwich. Don't mind the wait! Everything is fresh and hot and absolutely worth it! read more

Went for brunch. Had the pancakes and my wife had a club sandwich and soup. Both were great! Pancakes came with home made whipping cream which was delicious. Service was outstanding. A must stop if you're in the area. read more

My first visit to the Grumpy Rabbit was enjoyable. The service was excellent and multiple staff members waited on us during the time we were there. We had our choice of tables when we arrived at 4pm for drinks. Everyone was eager to serve us and our water glasses and the carafe of water on our table were continuously refilled. The Brussels sprouts were crispy and delicious. I don't usually put sauce on my Brussels sprouts, but the Ranch dressing and honey dipping sauce were both tasty. The restaurant never filled up while we were there, but there was a steady steam of business. If you're in Lonoke or passing through, stop in the Grumpy Rabbit. You'll enjoy the warm and friendly atmosphere and some tasty food and drinks. This place seems pretty casual and laid back - no need to dress up read more

This hidden gem is small town at its best! Fresh food, locally sourced and excellent service. We look for gluten free options when traveling and sometimes it's hard. They offered gf bread for sandwiches and several salads. Super friendly staff and the owners made you feel very welcomed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sadly I didn't take a picture of my food only bc I couldn't stop looking at the resturaunt![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The carrot dill salad dressing needs to be bottled and sold! My salad was divine, as was my husband's Reuben and the hand cut fries! Will stop here again! 6 read more

Excellent service! Delicious food! Stopped in here on our way through town. I really can't say enough good things about this place. For starters our greeter was super friendly as was our server, the restaurant was nicely done in an old downtown building, very clean, our order came out quickly and both of our entrees were very tasty! I got the Parmesan crusted chicken with spaghetti and broccoli, my husband got their swamp grits. Highly, highly recommend this restaurant! read more

This place was absolutely delicious. Make a reservation, but it's worth the wait! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat upstairs, but they have an elevator and I'm sure would be very accommodating if you had a large party downstairs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everyone was so kind (our 18 month old was testing us lol) and attentive. The food was fantastic! We started with the tater tot's, which surprised me, as they are not at all normal tater tot's. We got the Alfredo and the swamp grits, which were very good. The kids chicken strips were normal chicken strips (which is great if your kid is anything like mine). I forgot my ID so I couldn't get a drink, but respect to them for not serving someone who can't produce ID! We finished the night with the berry cake. It appears to be a random special, so it's not always there, but if it is, GET IT. It may be the best cake style dessert I've ever had at a restaurant. read more

Excellent food, great service, [[HIGHLIGHT]]wonderful ambience upstairs[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Delightful! Can't wait to return.

Stopped in for dinner on a long road trip with our 2 dogs. They opened up the back patio turned on the patio heaters, got 'em treats and water as soon as we sat down. Great service and good food. Loved it when the manager thanked us for spending money in their small town. Well worth the short drive from the exit. read more

Outstanding experience! From the service to the food... everything was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice ambience - indoor and outdoor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pet friendly which is a plus![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend the blackened redfish. Support local small businesses! read more

My husband and I were driving through Arkansas today with our final destination Pigeon Forge, TN for our 5th anniversary trip. We had planned to stop for lunch in Little Rock but missed the exit for some restaurants so we decided to keep driving with the thought we would come across more options. It was nearly 2 pm and my husband changed the map to go to a place called Grumpy Rabbit. I took the exit and started driving towards the restaurant. It is located in a small town that you wouldn't think a classy restaurant option like Grumpy Rabbit would be located in. It would be able to hang with some of the best restaurants in any big town!! Service was fantastic and the food was delicious. read more

Vegetarian food! Impossible burger was excellent with the sweetest tasting onions on it. French fries cut to order. This is worth the stop. The menu was simple and all the meals I saw on tables looked wonderful. The staff was lovely and the service 5 stars! read more

Ok, what a find! We were traveling down I-40 and hungry. Started searching Yelp and found The Grumpy Rabbit and it had good reviews. It's a little off the highway but not much. We were hungry when we sat down. We ordered the tater tots and the Black-eyed pea hummus to start. The tater tots are smashed so they are flat and round. Very crispy and tasty. It's served with your choice of 3 sauces. We were boring and just got ketchup. The hummus was served with grilled pita bread. MMMMHHMM... so good. I could just get a plate of them and be happy. The hummus itself was ok. Nothing special. My husband ordered the Swamp Grits, and I got the soup of the day which was roasted poblano pepper soup. Trust me, order the swamp grits. That dish contains all the flavors you want and more. The soup was good, but kind of boring compared to the grits. We came on a weekend before Christmas, so Santa was there going table to table. The whole place is a little bougie for being in the middle of Arkansas (that's a good thing). I would describe the food as 'modern southern'. Service was a little slow, but the place was packed, and we weren't in a hurry. I'll definitely keep this place in mind whenever I travel through. read more

We stumbled upon a real gem as we happened to be passing by. Quality, house-made food and drinks, along with very kind, welcoming people. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is rare to find a place that is great for kids (coloring sheets, cute bunny stuff, etc.) and has great food for adults.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The jalapeño margarita I had was not made from a mix, and it was strong and tasted so good. We live half an hour from this place, but we'll make the drive again. read more

Stopped here on our way up to Kansas and glad that we did. All of the servers and hosts were so nice and attentive, and the food was delicious! We got the breakfast pizza and spicy spinach queso and both were amazing. Make sure to get a side of the house ranch for the pizza if you like ranch, you won't regret it! read more

A surprisingly great find in a small town! You need to check this place out. Locally owned and excellent. Food and service were top notch. T had the blackened redfish over cheesy grits - perfectly cooked and spiced. Not too much spice - just enough. And, the Spicy Margarita worked very well with it. I had the Swamp Grits, which I loved. I'm not a big fan of grits but when you put this outstanding sauce and seafood on top of these cheesy grits it is a wonderful thing. Our server was a very personable young guy who made sure we were happy. The man in charge (not sure if he was a manager or owner) visited several time to make sure all was well. A friend recommended it and we were skeptical. Glad our concerns were unfounded. We will be back - hopefully many times. This is good enough to be a destination restaurant. Don't skip it if you are in the area. read more

Stopped into the Grumpy Rabbit for lunch on our way into Little Rock today. Very cool spot in downtown Lonoke. My dad and I both got the burgers and they were both amazing. Bring your appetite because the burgers are huge! Awesome service and would definitely stop back in to try the specials. read more

This is such a fun, funky place that is not at all what you would expect in a small town in Arkansas. The hostess and our server were so kind. The server was super attentive the entire time and fast paced. We started out with drinks. I had their drink special which was a gin based martini with elderflower liquor and it was incredible. The Rosie rabbit drink was also very good. Appetizers were alright. The tator tots are were interesting. Basically a mashed potato that's fried, sounds weird, but it was really good. Queso was your standard dip, nothing fancy to write home about though. Most of our table had the pork shank special with a red wine demi glaze. It was really good. The blackened chicken Alfredo was bragged on by our friends who ordered that. Overall, a really great experience and super fun outing. read more

I went with a group. We all enjoyed our food. The portions were generous. We also had great service.

So glad we took the time to stop. We had the meatloaf and soup&salad. All was top notch. There was enough to split the entree. 2 old fashioneds and dessert $70. Might be a little pricy but we had been traveling and did not want fast food. Really liked the flavors. read more

The service was great! Some of the best service we have ever had. The food came out pretty quickly & there was no wait at lunch on a Saturday. Very cool decor inside & a good brunch + lunch menu offered. We didn't have drinks but they did have a full bar and their cocktails sounded delicious. Caesar salad with chicken was good! I wish it had a little more dressing but overall it was really good. My husband had the Reuben and gives it a 8/10. We will be back! read more

When I walked in, the restaurant was far better then I had expected! The restaurant is very tasteful, unique in its own way with a whole lot of art on the wall! The ambiance reminds me of California/silicone valley which is a delicacy in the Midwest! The service- OMG! By far the best experience! I came here alone and I usually get weird looks for eating dinner alone, however, the server did not make me feel that way! Super sweet individuals here! The menu! Easy to read and very detailed. I highly recommend everything at this restaurant! I'll definitely be returning here again! read more

Excellent food and service in lovey art filled surroundings. We dined late in the afternoon before dinner, so we had brunch! The avocado toast was creative and much lighter than most. The bread was fantastic and each slice was garnished with mint. My companions ordered biscuits and gravy, the swamp grits, and corned beef hash covered in top notch hollandaise sauce. Everyone enjoyed their meal. We are eager to return for dinner. read more
