Anna T. Wilson

Little Rock, the capital of Arkansas, is more than just a place known for its famous hospitality, and it is more than its down home cooking. Below is a list of the top restaurants to experience fine-dining in Little Rock.

1. Table 28

Diner, Restaurant, American, Fusion

Chef Scott Rains is among the masterminds behind the exquisite modern American cuisine at Table 28. This is among the many restaurants that source organic produce from farmers of Arkansas and the menu reflects this. The name of this restaurant may seem quite abstract or vague. However, it is without coincidence – there are indeed 28 tables in the entire establishment. If you are lucky enough to dine at the 28th table, then you will be served a six-course meal that is especially made for your party, served by Chef Rains himself. This fine-dining experience has been featured in publications including AYmag, Arkansas Times, and Sync Weekly. Their menu has been a large contributing factor to their accolades, especially options like the prefix menu where a three-course meal is a reasonable price.

2. Terry’s Finer Foods

Restaurant, American, French

American and French cuisine, seafood, steak, and vegetarian options all grace the pages of Terry’s Finer Foods’ menu. The crew at Terry’s call their French delights ‘a little bit of Paris located in the heart of the heights’ and they’ve right. Staple French dishes, like escargot with garlic and herb butter and breast of magret duck with sage and bread cornbread dressing, haricot verte, and cranberry coulis, are on the dinner menu. There are also steaks at any cut or grade, like the porterhouse a la florentina served with asparagus, pommes puree, and roasted shallot butter.

3. SO Restaurant Bar

Bar, Bistro, Restaurant, American, French, African

Appetizers, soups and salads, entrees, and a raw bar awaits guests at the SO Restaurant Bar. The raw bar features fresh oysters, a shrimp cocktail with five U12 shrimps served with lemon wedges and a cocktail sauce, Alaskan king crab legs served with clarified butter at market price per pound, and the ocean sampler that has a half dozen oysters, six shrimps, and one king crab leg. If you’re in the company of seafood lovers, then So Lux may be perfect for your group. It comes with a dozen oysters, twelve shrimps, and two king crab legs. This raw bar has it all. Pair these delicious fresh foods with their award-winning wines from France.
