    Farmer's burger (left) and Classic burger (right) with sweet potatoe fries
    Harris N.

    Upon arrival server told us they close the upstairs (best spot in the restaurant) from 2-4pm to clean so she sat us in the most boring part of the restaurant (the side). The food was decent and the server was nice. I would come back if I'm around here. I recommend opening up the whole restaurant though.

    Overall 3.25 Stars As we were heading to Branson, we did a layover in Little Rock and were hankering for a burger. After reviewing several burger establishments, I picked Big Orange for their eclectic menu options. Ambiance - 3.5 stars We arrived 1 hr before closing and took about 5 minutes before we seated. The decor is modern with spacious indoor and outdoor seating. Even had a second floor for larger gatherings. There is central open bar with multiple chairs. When busy, I would suggest the outdoor seating area because it will get loud inside. Service 3.75 Stars Our server was pleasant and professional. She made some recommendations and we placed our order. Food: over 3.25 stars - all items are a la carte 1. 4 Stars - Umami bomb a mixed Half (veggies) & Half (Beef) Patty, Havarti Cheese, White American Cheese, Sautéed Mushrooms, Caramelized Onion, Thyme, Arugula, Butter Leaf Lettuce, and Garlic Mayo. This is must order item. The half n half patty was juicy and very flavorful. The melted cheese was a big compliment to the patty and the onions were slightly sweet. Great combination! 2. 2.75 stars Price- The waffle sweet potato fries w mango curry ketchup. This was not a hit due to the limp fries and the curry seasoning. It seems they gave us leftover fries from the basket. And the curry in the mango ketchup was a bit overpowering for the taste buds. 3. 2.75 Stars - Farmer's Burger* Havarti Cheese, Over Easy Farm Egg, Petit Jean Bacon, Butter Leaf Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion, and Garlic Mayo. Nothing special about the burger. The burger supposed to be medium - med well but the burger was well done. If you prefer a burger with neutral flavors, this would be burger for you. I prefer my burger to have a little bit more flavor so I added the curry mango ketchup to it. It tasted much better. 4. 3.25 Stars Truffle Garlic Herb fries. These were hot, fresh and crunchy. There was slight hint truffle oil but not overwhelming. I prefer these over the sweet potato fries Price: 2.75 stars - each menu item is a la' carte and the burgers prices are more expensive than other places. We spent $45 for two burgers and specialty fries, not including the one beer which was the least expensive thing our ticket. Would I recommend the place...maybe but there are other burger joints I would try when passing through Little Rock again.

    The Border Town Chop salad came out to $16.75 before tax with an incredibly small portion of fried chicken, which is the main part of the salad. It used to come with multiple full chicken tenders and now it's down to one single chicken tender chopped up into small bites. I hope they understand in this economy, this isn't going to win them any raving fans or returning patrons. Sadly, unless I get invited to go there I won't be back. Too little value, too high on price.

    Service was good. Burger was only ok. I believe they use a very lean ground beef which sacrifices flavor. I'd prefer a little more flavor in the beef. Maybe they could season the patty's some?

    Alright I'm going to start with the good. The best fries I have ever had in my life were at a small resort in Fiji on its own island called Qamea. Big Orange has the closet fries to those! Absolutely phenomenal fries (I'm referencing the truffle ones with the garlic aioli)! Also, the service was great, they were fast despite being a little busy for a Wednesday evening, and they even helped me out with letting me borrow a phone charger. Now for the not great: I've been in Little Rock for 2 weeks now, and being that it is known as Burgertown USA, I've been trying my fair share of top rated burgers. Here I went with The Original and just wasn't impressed. I'd give it a 6/10. It lacked flavor and definitely didn't top my list of burgers in Little Rock. Same for the atmosphere. It seemed a little more mainstream than some of the other, more intimate places on the top rated list. Overall, great spot for fries and some drinks. I enjoyed my cookies and cream milkshake, but not Little Rock's best burger.

    Food was great. The atmosphere was laid back and sporty, fun and family friendly. You could tell the ingredients were sourced well as the quality of the food was great. The service was excellent. No bc complaints. This was our second time here and we will be back when in the area.

    We stopped here on our way to Gatlinburg TN and I'm sure glad we did! Every part of the burgers I tried were amazing! The buns themselves are so good and light. Patties are full of flavor no matter which one you get and the toppings are house made it locally made for sure. I love all the different combos of flavor you can get here. In the middle of this restaurant is an eye stopping bar. Then you have the upstairs area looking down at the rest of the restaurant . Super cool! Come try them out!

    I was unfortunately disappointed tonight (28JAN2024). Big Orange has an excellent range of menu selections and unique flavors. The staff are always friendly and their restaurants are normally well kept. Tonight, we waited for one hour and twenty minutes for three hamburgers and three fries. Our burgers did not come as ordered and we only received two fries. We were told that our order was lost. I'm not sure how that happens. (I used to wait tables at a 4 star private restaurant) The bathroom was gross and this has never been my experience before at Big Orange. Our wait was only ten minutes. They were busy but not too busy. I'm a little dismayed.

    Thai Chop with Chicken and OMG those homemade chips!

    We always look forward to a road trip that takes us through Little Rock at meal time. Big Orange is an easy detour because we know the menu to be creative, the people friendly and the vibe to be cheery. We normally settle to the bar and no matter who is behind it it's as if we are regulars. This past Sunday was no exception. Not shown in the photo is my real recommendation, the PB & Dark Chocolate shake. Whew, I'm a vanilla guy but this selection was so good it was gone before I snapped a photo of it. Sorry y'all but my mistake is just good reason for you to get to Big Orange and order the PB & Dark Chocolate shake with a Homemade Chip Bucket for yourself!

    Took my boy out for his Birthday Burger while we were in town for a convention. The ambiance was so fun! The lighting and bar set up definitely gives off hip vibes. Happy Hour here would be cool I think. Burgers were big, seasoned well and not overcooked. The bun was classic and toasted inside as it should be. Fries were crispy outside and soft inside. We had chocolate shakes for dessert and our amazing kind waiter Francisco, gave us one on the house, for my kiddo's special day. Will definitely be back when we come through town!

    Utterly overpriced and boring. It's burgers. They are fine. Service is fine. Just not worth the hype or price.

Well, I am happy to report that it IS true, that Petit & Keet is an outstanding restaurant. We made it in, in time for their terrific happy hour at the bar. Packed at 5:00 PM on a Tuesday (who woulda thunk that?) we were able to squeeze in and jump in on their goodies. The HH Menu was so appealing we would up just tasting several things; for starters, their signature frozen drink, the Peechy Keet, was absolutely phenomenal (it might also be because it was over 100 degrees outside). Not too sweet, nicely fruity and packing a punch. The Crudites was atypical with a larger assortment of veggies (including some tasty Sheshido peppers) and a really, unique and delish hummus. Next up; the Tuna Tostada. This could actually be my favorite item on the menu; sashimi grade tuna on a larger Tostada, perfectly marinated. Yummy. We topped things off with the Empanadas' that were also delectable; plenty of filling, not overly fried so as to be firm but chewable. I can't believe we wound up being stuffed, and sadly, it prevented us from diving into what looked like some wonderful entrees. Next time! A special note to the management; your bartender (sorry, her name escapes me, but she's in the pic with my wife and me) was as phenomenal as the food & drink (and the decor; sorry I hadn't mentioned that before, but it is a lovely space). She was everything (and more) for what someone behind the bar should be, an expert concotionist, professional, fun (and funny) and on top of everything at a packed bar/restaurant. Can you say "deserves a raise" with me? Also, loved the story of the place on the menu. It feels great to see a local place like Petit and Keet deliver top notch food, service and environment.

The atmosphere is great; the space was huge with indoor and outdoor seating, with a kind of vibe that is perfect for an evening out with friends. We made a last-minute reservation for a group of 22 (yikes!) at 6:30pm on a Thursday, and they happily accommodated us. We were seated in a private back room with plenty of space, and the décor was absolutely adorable (peep the photos!). I strategically sat next to friends who were willing to split appetizers, entrées, and dessert, which gave me the perfect opportunity to sample a few of their signature dishes. We started with the Beer Cheese & Pretzel and the Brussels & Bacon, and both were fantastic. The Brussels were the standout, wonderfully charred with a smoky flavor, while the maple bacon added just the right amount of sweetness to balance everything. For our entrées, we shared the STB Craft Burger and the Chicago Hot Dog. Choosing a favorite was nearly impossible, but the hot dog ultimately won me over. The toasted poppy seed bun was chef's kiss, and the combination of pickled vegetables and relish made every bite pop with flavor. But friends ... do yourself a favor and order the brownie à la mode (or, strategically place yourself between friends that like to share because we also got the honey vanilla sundae. ). I'm not being dramatic when I say it's the best brownie I've ever had. It wasn't dense, yet it wasn't cakey either--it existed in that beautiful, perfect, magical space between the two. Warm, rich, perfectly textured, and paired with ice cream... "otherworldly" is the only word that comes to mind. I'm only visiting from out of state, but I would gladly return to Little Rock just for another meal here. An incredible dining experience from start to finish.

What really sets this place apart, though, is the customer service. I have alpha-gal syndrome, which can make dining out challenging, but the staff here went above and beyond to make sure my meal was prepared safely. They were knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cared about getting everything right. That level of effort and awareness means a lot. I ordered the shrimp po'boy, and it was fantastic--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Experiences like this are rare, and it's the reason I keep coming back. I highly recommend this brewery to anyone looking for great food, excellent beer, and truly exceptional service!
