I had the hostess deliver a anniversary gift to my table and it was a great surprise to wife. It was on the evening of November 22 the experience was wonderful. Thank you

It was excellent as always. Has quickly become my favorite restaurant since I moved to the area a couple months ago.

Food was good as usual. One of the items we got was the half chicken which we've had before. This time around it was a bit dry. Other than that, food was good.

Kelly and Rita were phenomenal!! I can't ever say enough positive things about my visits to Preacher's Son.

Set in an old church, the ambiance is perfect. Started with two very different but equally tasty cocktails. Entrees were excellent too. As a vegetarian, I really appreciate a dish that doesn't "phone it in". Even though the speakeasy wasn't open, they let us take a peek. I'd highly recommend this place for a nice meal in Bentonville.

I travel for work both domestic and internationally and have been to numerous so called “high-end” restaurants. This comes in as one of my top 3 restaurants. Great food, not an overwhelming wine list and unique space. I hope to revisit here when I’m back in Arkansas.

I had the pleasure of dining at The Preacher’s Son for dinner to treat myself while I am in town. From the moment I walked in, the experience was truly memorable. Wes, the host, greeted me warmly and shared the story of the building—how it was once a church for many years before later being transformed into a unique three-part setting: a speakeasy below, a balcony bar above, and the main restaurant in between. Walking into the church-turned-restaurant was breathtaking, with every detail of the architecture adding to the charm.
My server, Fiva, recommended dishes that weren’t necessarily the most popular on the menu, but the flavors said otherwise. The Tartare for the appetizer and Duck breast for the entree were simply outstanding—each bite felt like that magical “Ratatouille” moment of instantly falling in love with a meal. I enjoyed a moscato for dessert and that filled me up.
The atmosphere was just as impressive as the food. The staff worked seamlessly together, creating a smooth and welcoming dining experience. The portions were perfectly sized—enough to satisfy without being overwhelming—and the pricing felt very reasonable for the quality. I also appreciated the thoughtful details, like fans set up outside to keep flies away and the comfortable spacing between tables.
One of the highlights is that the menu changes often, which makes me excited to come back and discover new flavors. This time, I only dined in the restaurant, but I’m already looking forward to exploring the speakeasy downstairs and the balcony bar upstairs on my next visit.
Overall, The Preacher’s Son is more than just dinner—it’s an experience I’ll happily return again.

First time visitor to Bentonville and Preachers Son. Tess was our server and she was awesome! Food, we had the Apricot Burrata, was the perfection! We also had the lamb, chicken, duck and salmon. Everyone was thrilled with their entree. One of the best service and food I have had. Thank you!

This place was great. The food was delicious, and the speakeasy downstairs while we waited for our reservation was awesome. The only two downsides are that parties of 8 or more are on a pre-fixed menu, and the dinner service took 2.5 hours. Way too long to be offering 8pm or later reservations.
Best meal I’ve ever had. Burrata toast appetizer was amazing, half chicken entre was so flavorful, and the cheesecake was mouth watering!

Not cheap. But always great. The atmosphere here isn't always exciting, but the food and drink maker up for it.

This was my fiancées and I date night and we didn’t know what the menu looked like to keep it a surprise. Once we were sat down our waiter Viva came over and explained the food options and gave us recommendations. Literally everything she recommended was absolutely perfect, hands down my top 3 favorite restaurant ever. Viva thank you so much, you’re an angel!
