I had ate numerous times at The Ark over in Riverside so an opportunity came to try this new restaurant in Springville and compare. My meal consisted of a catfish fillet, cole slaw, fried okra, hushpuppies and tea. Fried okra and hushpuppies were very good and cole slaw was good. I was not impressed with the catfish fillet. It was not greasy and was lightly battered but it just did not have a taste. I suppose if I had ordered a large seafood meal I would have got a different impression but I was looking for a basic lunch meal. Service was good and the atmosphere was tops as it was inside one of the old historic buildings in town.

Way out in the country, down a road you wouldn’t expect a restaurant — it’s built out of a converted river barge. The fried catfish was the real deal. Don’t expect fancy plating — it’s all about comfort, flavor, and that “we’re here, off the grid” vibe. Great for a detour.

This is the best restaurant around! The food is fresh, staff is very attentive, and it is spotlessly clean.

Usually delicious but chose the special of chicken & dressing. Edible but tasted like a mix. Banana pudding had no bananas & was a mix. Couldn't eat it. Will stick to the menu from now on.

I’ve never had a bad meal here. Their hamburger steaks and patty melts are the best i ever had. Never had an issue with service unless they’re super busy, which is to be expected. And they’re not insanely over priced like most restaurants. 100% recommend

We went to The Ark for the first time. Variety of menu items for the whole family. We started out with the onion rings which were so good! Fried perfectly and good seasoning on the batter. Chicken fingers were crunchy and cooked perfectly. The catfish was a nice portion! We asked for blackened shrimp instead of fried and those too were seasoned good. Of all things, the ranch dressing was one of our favorites! We were too full to try any desserts. A great find in Springville with great portions and very reasonable pricing.
