Kitakara (Menya - Noodle Shop)

We were in from NEA and stopped at the new Bentonville location on Saturday (4/11) and did not realize it was a “friends and family” soft opening. They still sat us, provided the most wonderful service, and comped the meal as if we were invited guests. We decided to donate the amount to the We are 479 organization since we didn’t have to pay, as they were there raising money, as well. We will absolutely be back and HomeGrown will be a staple for us while there. Thank you so much for the most enjoyable brunch and service!!

First time trying the restaurant. I was seated promptly, and met server promptly. Asked if I was ready to order and said I need literally 2 mins. Saw her talking to two other servers in server area and I left after waiting 10 minutes for her to return. 3 other tables were set and they all ordered while I waited. Not planning on visiting this location again. Service by wait staff was not good.

I'm new to the area springdale, And I am a Vegetarian that loves Breakfast food😍... They have a vegetarian omelet with blueberry pancakes 🥞 😋 😍.... The prices are good.The service is amazing and the atmosphere Is worth returning several times a week!!! Today was my dad's birthday and I had to treat him to what I had been talking about! He really enjoyed the meal especially the coffee cake🎂😋🥳. I will recommend this restaurant to anyone that loves Breakfast & brunch❗️

Amazing ramen and wonderful service!

The food is great!! I'm from Chile, and I lived in Washington state. That means I have tried different types of food, and I can say the food here is great!!! Let's go, Springdale!!! The owner/chef came to say hi to us. My wife and I had a delightful time!

This is the second time my husband and I have eaten here- we love it!! We had the vege gyoza (fantastic!) the Mazesoba, and the vegetable yakisoba. All delicious, especially when the hot sauce at the table is added. Excellent service!

The ramen was good overall but nothing special. I'm from California and this is comparable to places there. Service could have been better (not enough utensils or water) but they had the food out pretty quickly.

The toppings, from tender slices of chashu to fresh vegetables, are thoughtfully chosen to complement and enhance the overall taste experience.

It's good to get to know and try something different, the only detail is that they take a long time to serve.
