    Fried pickles

    Super wide range of choices on the menu with multiple dishes that sound great. I went with the flat iron steak with Cajun corn and fried pickles for my two sides. Superb flavor in the steak, Cajun corn was very good and the fried pickles were excellent. My wife chose the blackened catfish with crawfish etoufee and loaded grits. She liked both a lot. Hush puppies came with both meals. We will definitely make multiple return trips.

    Stopped on our way to Branson and we were very glad we did. The jambalaya was fantastic, you must try it. Gumbos were good. The pulled pork sliders were amazing would absolutely get those again, they were served with delicious hush puppies. The hubby got the brisket burger with sweet potato fries and loved it. They serve the sweet potato fries with a praline sauce that was to die for.

    Extremely dissatisfied with my visit to this restaurant. Way over priced, food was cold, beer was flat and my order was brought out incorrectly. As a server, there was no excuse for how bad the service was. I don't expect this place to be open for very long. Total waste of $70+

    Fried green tomatoes (we didn't ask for this).

    We came here for the first time on 08/16/19 @ 9PM. We came in and waited abt two minutes before we were greeted and seated bc the hostess was conversing with someone at a table. The staff was friendly and our waitress made sure our drinks were filled and she checked us on us regularly. We ordered fried pickles which took awhile. But they brought us fried green tomatoes instead. They did fix this mistake and let us keep the fried green tomatoes at no charge but it was silly bc they could've just taken it back since that's not what we wanted nor were we interested in it. Anyways, since they brought out the wrong appetizer we had to wait even longer for the pickles and by the time they brought that out, our food was out within 5 minutes behind it. This place was dead. I would say 4 tables were filled. Plenty of staff walking around that were talking abt a plethora of un-work related inappropriate things. Not something I really care abt but someone else may. The fried pickles were okay. Wish they had more batter on them. For our dinner we ordered the pasta shrimp bowl and the grilled shrimp. I ordered broccoli as my side and my man had fries and hush puppies. The food was okay. Nothing really popped and nothing was standing out. Very basic and plain. The rating I gave was based mostly for attentive staff members, accountability for fixing an issue and for the food being "okay". My man did not like his shrimp one bit. I actually ate them for him but I had to dip it in my cream sauce to get any flavor out of it. He ordered "grilled" shrimp but they def were not grilled. He ate his hush puppies and his fries. My dish personally was okay. I would say easy on the green onion next time, if you want to decorate a plate with bright greens leave it to the parsley or cilantro next time, the overload of green onions made my plate presentable and pretty but in actuality was too strong in my pasta. My pasta also had a lot of shrimp in it, no complaints there!

    I decided to post a review as I am sitting here the next day eating my left overs and still in awe of how good it taste! Cajun taste, cozy atmosphere, and the family loved the Monday night bingo while we ate! We even won $15 to go toward the cost of our meal. It was a great experience! We will be back!!!

    Tiny little frozen pie lol
    Stacy J.

    Portion sizes are silly. I ordered 30 dollars worth of food and sizes were so tiny. The bread was a one bite tiny. Two bites of bread, 4 actual shrimps in the ettoufee and the six dollar peanut butter pie is a frozen sliver from a box pie. The tiny entree tasted pretty good but wasn't authentic and my friend and I figured we could share, but to no avail. Not worth the price and I'm assuming this was because it was a Waitr order that it was so piddly. Photos of in-house dishes were bigger and more fitting for the price point. 4 dollar cup of soup was only about an actual .25 cup of soup over .25 cup of rice. Beignets small, hard, thick dough moons that didn't remotely resemble an actual doughnut let alone a beignet. I've had a cold one before and know what a cold beignet is supposed to taste like. This was yuck. Threw away crouton bread bites and dough balls.

    This is how they deal with there costumers.

    The Vault 1905 Sports Grill

    We stopped for lunch while passing through this old town, found The Vault on the Main Street. It is…read morean old bank building, converted to a sports bar I had the Portobello sliders and a side of steamed veggies, hubs had a Turkey Club and sweet potato fries. The sliders were delish. Came two per order. Each one had a fair sized mushroom, some roasted red peppers and lettuce. The veggies were hot and were green beans, carrots and squash. The sandwich was so large that half came home in a box. The fries were really nicely done and were piping hot and crunchy on the ends. You know how unusual that is with sweet potato fries... as soon as they start to cool off they get soggy. Prices were a little high, but the server Jenny was excellent. Definitely worth a stop if you are in town. It is a sports bar and there were plenty of locals in there for lunch also.

    Yelp was helpful again! Van Buren, Arkansas was a place I…read morehad never visited before and needed some help finding a good place to eat. The Vault looked good, was close by, so I tried it. Parking was great, right out front on the road in a great revitalized downtown area. Once inside, the waitress seated me and took my drink order. The menu choices all looked great. I asked for guidance from my waitress and she was very helpful! The special was the chicken fried steak and two sides and it looked good, but Big! Not wanting to eat that much she suggested the prime rib grilled cheese sandwich. Wow I had a salad, sandwich and sweet potato fries. I ate every bite and it was delicious! I would eat it again for sure. Being a sports bar there were plenty of sports to watch. The one thing that did catch my eye was a US flag with 48 Stars. Very cool! If you are ever in the friendly town of Van Buren, Arkansas, I highly recommend eating at The Vault. You will be glad you did. Go get Full
