Gadwall's Grill

This is more of a seat yourself situation restaurant. We were served quickly with water when we were greeted and then looked briskly over the menu. We chose the onion rings for our app, the bonsai nachos for entree, and the chicken tenders with sweat potato fries. The onion rings came out very fast with the waiter telling us not to expect anything else to come out quickly… that was odd to say but ok. The onion rings were bland and flavorless and needed some kind of dipping sauce but all we could get was ketchup. When we were served our meal again we were told not to expect anything else this quickly ever again… and again it was strange.

Gadwall's is consistently good! I usually get the burger and some cheese dip as those are my favorite things there. And don't skimp on desserts! Leah is one of my favorite servers but all of the staff are knowledgeable, fast, and funny.

Good food at a local spot recommended to us and we're glad we went. Patty melt was great, chicken fried chicken was good, onion rings were awesome and soaked salad was very good. Service was friendly and prices were decent. All-in-all a good dinner out while in the Little Rock area.

They never disappoint! Great food and fast friendly wait staff. We started with fried pickles, yes fried but lite, not greasy and not heavy on the stomach😋. Shannon had the build your own bologna sandwich 🥪a thick cut of bologna on Texas Toast. I had the classic cheese burger with onion rings both delicious. A word about the onion rings, you know how in some places you take a bite of your ring and the entire onion slides out one end. Not these, each bite is a lightly battered bite of equal parts onion and batter with the rest of the ring staying intact.

The staff here is great. Even when busy they are friendly, personable, and service is quick and good. If you're a regular, and there are many, you're like family. Food is good and prices are decent. There's a reason it's been a staple of the area and been around (even despite a fire and moving to this location from next door) for decades.
