It was our anniversary and first time going to Gaskins. Did not disappoint! Was a great experience! Bar tenders spot in. Made me a Smokey manhattan and they knew to stir not shake. The cauliflower appetizer was delicious. For dinner I had the prime rib, baked potato and side of mushrooms, I ordered medium rare and it was perfect! Although, I probably only ate about 5 oz and was 14oz cut. My husband ordered the pork chop dinner and he said delicious and tender. The bread was an add on but so worth it. Staff was friendly and our waiter, Dan was very knowledgeable on the wine list. We even had the opportunity to meet the owner Mr. Jones. Bert first name I think. They gave us a complimentary dessert for our occasion. Pistachio Tiramasu. Delicious. Ambience a plus! They are opening an Italian restaurant in two weeks. Can't wait! We will for sure be back! read more

We really enjoyed or dinner at Gaskins on Emma. First, it is nice to have another upscale restaurant in our community, and we welcome them! The ambiance is excellent for meeting with friends and having a conversation that can be heard. Dress is business casual, anything less and thnk you would feel underdressed. The tables are spaced to provide some privacy. Marble table tops and grey linens. Water service and friendly wait staff. We started with the appetizer bread service, which was small, but honestly the perfect amount as dinner portions are more than adequate. You do get what you pay for. I enjoyed the prime rib, while my husband had the filet. We both thought they were amazing cuts of meat full of flavor. It came with a baked potato or other sides could have been chosen. One critique I have is the baked potato was not quite cooked enough. Our friends enjoyed the strip and the Brick Chicken which looked amazingly tender and plated beautifully. The house salad was very fresh. My husbands favorite beet salad was available for upgrade and he thoroughly enjoyed it. They have an extensive wine menu with enough by the glass choices and many by the bottle. We were even given a sample to try of a couple we were not familiar with. I wish they would reconsider their wine pours as 4 oz is very small for a 2 hour experience. We were not rushed. If you are in a hurry I would let them know so you are not disappointed and the course servings. We were offered dessert which I wished I had room for. Next time, I will save room. They have a full bar at the front and many specialty drink options. There is something for everyone. We spent 2 bills including tip. We will be back. read more

Absolutely amazing and the right company can make it even better. Everything down to the mushroom soup was spot on!

We had a lovely date night here with another couple. Service was fabulous and food was amazing.

Chef Sam Walker and his team are cooking up some great food here at Gaskins. Everything we had was executed perfectly from the bread service, appetizers to the cocktails and the steaks. We are very happy that this place is in downtown Springdale and that there is some quality fine dining close by. We can't wait to go back, and the pave they serve is phenomenal. Andy, our server made us feel welcome and was very hospitable. Great atmosphere and as a culinary professional, this place is top notch. read more

Finally got the chance to go try this place out. I was so excited when I heard they were opening a place in Springdale. I've been a fan of Gaskins Cabin in Eureka Springs for many years. I was able to make a reservation right from Google which was super easy. You can also make one from their website. First I want to start with the décor. It is quite different from the Cabin. While the Cabin is much more rustic and quiet, the Emma location has a more upscale modern vibe, making it significantly louder. There were several times that we just stopped talking because we could barely hear each other. That was the only real downside to the evening. We arrived about 5 minutes early and were seated right away. Our server, Heather, was great. Very friendly and quickly took our drink order. My wife had the Lemon Drop which she said was really tasty, and I was happy to find my go-to Knob Creek on their shelf. They have a very nice selection of whiskeys. I was very pleased to find that my favorite from the cabin was available, the burgundy mushroom soup. I have tried to recreate it at home a few times and sadly, I just can't quite get it. We also started with a side salad and their bread service. My wife ordered the Arkansas Shrimp & Grits and said that it was very good. She expected a little more kick but overall the flavor was good. I ordered the 14oz Prime Rib medium rare with a loaded baked potato. It was a little closer to medium than medium rare but the flavor was excellent. It came with a delicious au jus and a horseradish cream sauce that tasted very fresh. I honestly didn't even taste my baked potato because I was so full. I am looking forward to finishing off the last of my prime rib and baked potato for lunch. We will definitely be going back. I can't wait to see if their ribeye is as good as the cabins. read more

I love it when the Owners of a restaurant visits the table to ensure that you are enjoying the food. Last night was delightful! We had cocktails in the bar before being seated in the restaurant. We ordered the salmon entree and my friend was thrilled. He said the outside was crusty and the inside was perfect. We had the chicken croquettes and I loved them. A perfect appetizer. Another friend had a hand shaped hamburger that was just under two inches thick and perfectly cooked. We had heard the mushroom soup because we were told it was famous and it did not disappoint! The Desserts were off the chart fabulous! I am not a huge fan of chocolate but the chocolate bread pudding was AMAZING! It was like eating air! More of a soufflé texture. Then we had the Toffee/Caramel Cheesecake, it was so so so good!! We will definitely go back!!! Make sure to meet the Owners. read more

Absolutely stunning experience. A must !! From the moment you walk in the door, to the incredible cocktail at the bar to only then really blow your socks off at the meal. It was all incredibly delicious and beautifully presented. Attentive and knowledgeable staff. The beet salad was *devine*, the Mac n Cheese the best I've ever had, I also tried the mushroom soup, corn salad side, brick chicken and smoked eggplant dish, I also had a taste of my friends steak . All incredibly delicious and sophisticated. Highly recommend the cocktail list to start. I've been in twice and can't wait to go again.

Amazing service, food and drinks! Great date night or night out with friends. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing! My wife and I had the Beef Bourguignon and it was the best I've ever had. We also had the Japanese milk bread, which went perfect with the au jus from the Bourguignon. Highly recommend! read more

Lovely lunch, indeed! The restaurant offers a beautiful atmosphere and delicious food. Ordered an Aperol Spritz, which was a sweet sparking sip! My lunch entree was the Steak Frites. The hangar steak was luscious, juicy and fork tender. It was seasoned so nicely. The frites were crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and perfectly salted. There was also a nice little salad on the plate. It was so delightful. The server, Heather was very polished and sweet. She included a little handwritten thank you card with the check. I look forward to another visit! read more

So excited to see elevated dining in downtown Springdale! The lounge area is quite small, not suited for large parties. Reservations is a must because they have limited seating, especially if you have a party larger than 4 people. My fiancé and I enjoyed our meal. The oysters tasted fresh and salty. The fried calamari was delicious. I've been craving bone marrow and I was surprised to see it on the menu! I tried their signature prime rib. It was 14oz and plenty big that I could have shared it. Prime rib was so tender! The ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. Their famous mushroom soup is a must! Skip the salad because it just tasted like regular salad. We also loved the cocktail selection and presentation. If you're looking for a fancy-ish date night, girls night, or looking to entertain- this is the place! Shoutout to our server, Andy! He was pleasant! read more

AMAZING food, phenomenal wine selection, perfect ambience. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about the food and the wine. My steak was perfect and one of the best steaks I've had (and I am very selective) This really is a great spot for a night out!! read more

Had our Anniversary dinner here and it was nothing short of amazing! Josh your service was spectacular and the food, holy cow. My apologies for not taking more pictures. Started with the Roasted Marrow. Phenomenal. The Mushroom Soup fantastic. Christiane had the Walleye, said it was delicious and I the Filet. You could cut it with a fork it was so tender and smooth. Finished with the Chocolate Bread Pudding. So nice to have such an establishment in Downtown Springdale! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! read more

A group of six of us had dinner at Gaskins, recently. We were seated right away so we did not go to the bar. We sat near the door. It was a cold night and we were hit with a cold breeze every time the door opened. We ordered specialty drinks which were fantastic. I ordered the prime rib with a potato and the mushroom soup. The soup was fantastic! The baked potato was delicious. But the prime rib was not hot enough and lacked flavor even with the au jus. My wife had a flank steak dish. It was not hot enough either. Others had the rib eye and pasta dish. Overall sentiment was "it was okay!" The acoustics are terrible. When the restaurant filled up it was hard to hear the person across the table from me. We'll try it again because we want to support restaurants on Emma. read more

Gaskins is a great addition to downtown! The rotating menu makes it a new experience every visit for a dining in experience or if you just want to sit at the bar! I love the charbroiled oysters and steak is great. Their rotating pasta dishes are also usually very good. I will give a warning- the plates are small, not "Arkansas sized" as you might think so be prepared, if you usually like bigger portions. read more

Limited beef-centered menu, but expansive drink and wine list. Good choice of apps and sides. Our server said he would take good care of us, but seemed in such a hurry taking our order he missed a few things. On reservation page asked if it was a special occasion, so I clicked birthday. When we were seated server asked if special occasion, and we said birthday. I expected some treat since they asked twice! But nothing materialized. Why ask twice if not going to be recognized? Could be something as small as cookie, or a special chocolate or anything! Was a very loud environment not particularly conducive to conversation. read more

NWA has a NEW FANTASTIC restaurant with Gaskins on Emma. The food is AMAZING thanks to their incredible head chef. I had the Chicken which was incredible. The atmosphere pairs perfectly with the top notch food experience but remains warm and cozy like a dinner with your best friends. Get there early so you can also enjoy the very nice well stocked bar. Kudos to the owners Bert and Lisa for bringing this great restaurant experience to the area. read more

What a gem of a restaurant tucked away downtown. Had the rib-eye, which was amazing. Even better was the peanut butter cheesecake. They could sell that stuff online and retire to a tropical island. Will definitely make a point of visiting again. read more

Absolutely loved this place! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated.. The vibe inside is cozy and welcoming--perfect for a casual date night or dinner with friends. read more

Food was overall really good. The mushroom soup was fantastic. The house salad was also good. I do not recommend the grilled oysters as you only get 4 and as a LA native, you should at least have 6 so that seems excessive at $18 and they were tiny. My filet was excellent with the herb butter and the loaded potato was also great. I would note though that I felt my filet was undercooked. Ordered medium and definitely was medium rare. It had great flavor and was tender so I could eat it. I'm not a send back person but good to know for future visits to maybe say medium plus as they tend to cook under. Same happened on the prime rib for cook but flavor good and we don't like to send back. Our cocktails were good as well. I would go back again and definitely want to try lunch. My biggest vice on this visit however was we were just brought the check at the end of the meal instead of being offered a dessert menu or after dinner drink. I planned to get one more drink at least but didn't have the opportunity and had to go elsewhere on Emma. I thought that a little presumptuous of our waiter but figured it was because we were one of the last 2 tables there and they wanted us to leave. It was overall good food and I would go back and try again, but I would hope the service would improve a bit. read more

So, my experience was not totally what I expected. First, it was my husband's and my anniversary. Mind you, we were the first ones in the restaurant. There was no one else there when we arrived but a few people at the bar. Those few people at the bar ended up being a party of six very loud people that they sat right next to us. We were a party of two on our anniversary which they would have known if they bothered to ask if we were celebrating anything. I ended up getting the special which was a filet with wine pairing which was good. The filet was very tender. However, the dessert that came with it and the dessert my husband ordered were GOD AWFUL!!!! I got the creme brûlée which the chef clearly does not understand how to fire the top. The top was so hard and crunchy I could barely break through it. It was really bad and I've had many creme brûlées at many actual high end restaurants. This was nearly inedible. My husband's gingerbread cake he ordered was even worse, completely dry and tasted like it had been sitting in the corner of the kitchen all week. For a 300 dollar dinner, y'all need a new dessert chef because whoever you got isn't cutting it. Our meal also for some reason took longer than anyone else's meal around us. The time between our appetizer and our salads (which I can't imagine salad takes very long to make) was at least 25 to 30 mins and then our entrees came out two minutes after that while we were just starting to eat our salad. Not a big deal if this was Outback Steakhouse but again, it was a 300 dollar dinner. Get your shit together. We ended up being the last ones around us to receive our entrees (even though we were the first to order) and the last to leave even though we were the first to be seated at the restaurant which was very strange. Again, it wouldn't be a big deal if we didn't have a 3 month old with my mother who had to be put to bed on time. Overall, the experience was disappointing, the food was mediocre except for my filet, and the service was subpar. You want to charge fine dining prices you got to rise to the level of fine dining. Go to the preachers son instead. They are leaps and bounds ahead in service and food quality. We will not be returning to Gaskins again. read more

Came for lunch on Valentine's Day. Our server was Troy who delivered excellent service in friendly approachable way. Mushroom Soup is outstanding and the spicy burger very good and flavorful. Fries crispy and hot. All-in-all a great experience. Will come again. read more

we completely enjoyed the food, the drinks, ands the ambience! Our server was Troy and he was excellent! He was very attentive, very informative, very kind, and very knowledgeable about the menu. All in all it was a wonderful evening! We recommend it and we will go back!! read more

Food, drinks and service were great! However, they open at 4pm but don't start serving steak till 5pm, which then they should just open at 5pm. Therefore, we ordered off the small plates menu because we got there around 430pm and couldn't order right away what we went there for (steak). Off the small plates menu we got southern chicken sandwich which were okay. Otherwise everything else was great! read more

A great steak house in Springdale!!! I am so glad we have a new good restaurant in downtown Springdale and don't have to go to Rogers or Fayetteville or bentonville!! And I am so happy about the development in our downtown that we have options. Love that you can come in as you are but want to be as presentabl, it's casual. Decor is modern industrial and classy sleek. Love that you can see people outside. Food was the highlight! we had the steak which was perfection and the crispy salmon. The food was inventive, delicious and appetizing looking. Cocktails did not disappoint either. I had the old fashioned which was very good after which I switched the a white wine to accompany the fish. Sides of couscous and asparagus were delicious! Service was attentive without being intrusive. Will definitely be back!! read more
