“This is a clean place to eat. The food is delicious; the salads are crisp and fresh. They have a varied menu from vegan to pizza to hamburgers. Sandwiches taste like mother made them in from the kitchen from homemade chicken salad to turkey and even a BLT. All are on the freshest breads. I have never had a bad experience while eating at Izzy’s and delight in the fresh brewed hot teas that I have tried with the dab of honey. Waiters and waitresses are courteous and friendly. They go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied. Parking is abundant in the parking lot that circles the restaurant. Handicapped spaces are marked for older individuals. The customers are young and older, and many families come into the eat restaurant to eat. I would recommend this to those looking for a superior, happy place to eat! .“

No wait time, immediately seated once we all arrived. The atmosphere was really nice. Our server was very attentive to our business group. We had several appetizers while we waited.

“I cannot say enough good things about my recent experience at Oyster Bar. Not only is the food consistently amazing every time I visit, but the level of care and hospitality from the staff truly goes above and beyond. During my last visit, I unfortunately became overheated and fainted on the patio. What could have been a stressful and overwhelming situation was met with nothing but kindness, quick action, and genuine empathy from everyone at the restaurant. Emily, in particular, was an absolute lifesaver—I am beyond grateful she was there that day. From making sure I was okay to offering support in every way possible, her kindness did not go unnoticed. Our waiter had already provided excellent service before my mishap, ensuring a fantastic dining experience. The entire staff demonstrated what true hospitality looks like, and I am incredibly appreciative of their care and professionalism. If you’re looking for a place with phenomenal food and a team that truly cares about their guests, look no further than The Oyster Bar. 10/10 recommend!“

“Found on chance on way home from Hot springs. They were great. Good food.“

“Friends recommended Brave New and we first tried it a year ago. We have been back 4 times and this is now our favorite upscale restaurant. I'm working my way thru the menu and everything I've tried has been outstanding. Their wine list is excellent and the service what you would expect from a 4 star restaurant. Love the fact that Peter Brave comes to EVERY table to make sure your meal exceeds your expectations. A little pricey but you get what your pay for! We will be back soon.“

“The food is amazing.And the staff rock“

“This establishment consistently delivers outstanding dining experiences. Jenna's attentive and friendly service is a notable highlight, making our Friday lunches truly unforgettable“

“Awesome food and great service!“

“One of my favorite places for lunch in Little Rock and the best waitress yet is JD she rocks ….“

“All aboard went above and beyond for my little girl tonight! We don’t like coming into restaurants close to close however when we asked if they would be able to seat us without it putting them in a bind 30 minutes before close the cook and waiter/cashier were beyond accommodating and so kind! It was our family’s first time dining at an establishment like this and let me tell you my daughter LOVED every second of it. They were so attentive to us and we tried to be as clean and as quick as possible but they did not rush us by any means and they gave my kiddo the full experience and she just had a blast. She danced and “choo choo’d” her little behind off and ate up her Mac and cheese. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone!!“
