They serve you the fixings such as hushpuppies, relish and coleslaw. So if you aren't careful, you will get full before the main meal.

The catfish isn't the best but overall I never came out of that place disappointed. A very good experience.

Eatmycatfish is another good option in Fayetteville that started as a food truck more than 10 years ago in Benton, Arkansas. They are a little different with the batter they use for the catfish but still pretty good.

But if you want catfish outside of those two places that I mentioned then Catfish Johns is another place to consider in Rogers.

Fayetteville never had enough southern influence to have a different variety of foods. They do have expensive high scale resteraunts which are nice but I never cared for them.

You would have to go to Springdale or Rogers to find places to eat that are closer to home.

The Dixie cafe 25 years ago before they closed for good was the goat.

If Momma Goldberg’s is the best place in Auburn, I weep for Auburn.

Archibald's? The best restaurant??? Seriously? I get that many think it's the best BBQ, but the best restaurant?


Good point...it is literally just some benches outside the cinderblock building holding the smoker. The ribs are insanely good but the best restaurant is Nick’s Original Filet House (Nick’s in the Sticks).

What is “Bulldog Burger Co”?

When I was in Stark, the two best burger spots were Mugshots and that smaller joint off of highway 12. Can’t remember the name. Christy’s maybe?

Yeah I think you’re talking about Christy’s...you’d get one of those brown bags but it’d almost be translucent from the grease in the burger and fries. Not complaining, stuff hit the spot after a night of drinking with my friend going to school over there.

Satchels is a quirky experience. That's it.
The food is...ok.

Who made this list? I like the Chimes but it is supposed to be the beset restaurant in Baton Rouge? Not quite.

Georgia Tech in Atlanta - I have been to the Varsity and it is a glorified fast food joint.


Ohio State - Raising Canes is the best restaurant in Columbus? Okay maybe I can believe that one.

Iconic perhaps, but in no way the best. Admittedly being able to go there 24/7 and order a pitcher of beer was nice as a student, it was average fare at best.

Like you, I feel the Chimes wouldnt stack up against a number of restaurants in BR. Perhaps the list only included restaurants actually located on the actual college campus.

So dumb. I guarantee you that Raising Cane's is not the best restaurant in Columbus. Bakersfield was my personal favorite.

Dixie chicken sucks


I wouldnt say it sucks. It isn't a food destination, it is just a country bar.

Definitely not the best food in College Station.

Booche's is a damn pool hall. NFW.

The burgers are slightly above average. Beer is cold.

I'm not far from Nashville. I've never been to Cabana Taps, but I'd bet a large sum of money that it's not a better restaurant than Morton's of Chicago.

In the big city of Columbus, Ohio, Raising Cane’s is the best restaurant. No way.
