Think dive bar, without the alcohol. A watch the game vibe. The fries were the best thing on my plate, and I didn't even order them. I ordered the Arts brisket quesadilla (appetizer) - this was recommended by the waitress. It isn't enough to share, or have as your entree alone, so keep this in mind for those of you who do order appetizers as meals. I also ordered a hot link, and a slice of bread. The hot link (I envisioned an earl campbell type link- smooth in texture like a hot dog) wasn't what I expected. It leaned more sausage, like the traditional Texas hot links that use a coarse grind with a casing. It was crumbly when bitten. The hot link is very very spicy- the spice alone overpowered the flavor. I didn't finish it. The quesadillas, I wouldn't recommend. I didn't finish them either. Back to the fries. The fries were the best thing to me! Home cut, cooked fresh. Unfortunately, this is my first and last visit to this restaurant. I just didn't like the food. Another highlight- the sliced brisket sandwich was good, per my aunt. I did not try it.

This last time there were cars in front and someone sitting down eating and I was quickly and curtly told to come back Tuesday before I could open my mouth . I will not be back Tuesday, or any other day. If you are going out of your way to try this place I suggest having a back up plan and maybe calling first. Btw, it's okay to be closed but it is not okay to speak to me in that tone or fashion.

Air conditioning is not good. Probably 80 to 85 degrees in here. They have Pepsi products... so gag. They have ice but no cups. She told me if I had a cup in the car, she could give me ice. The fries were good. The burger is the thinnest thing I've ever eaten in my life. I got a single patty. A person would definitely need 2 patties and really even 3 patties. Definitely a crisp smash burger, which is not my thing. One time was enough for me. I still say the best burger in Fort is 5 Guys and for the money Braums burger with fries and a shake is good and a good value.

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

It is conveniently and inconspicuously attached to the "no-tell" hotel, aka Motel 6. You know, the place where they keep the light on for you! Wake up, wander down the hall, sober up with a fresh hot cup of coffee and a big breakfast. The restaurant is highly rated by travelers and the locals. We were headed home and purposely held out for breakfast until we hit Van Buren. It was worth the wait. I had my usual breakfast. Check the pictures. It was perfect and the gravy.....This is what country sausage cream gravy is supposed to look like and how it is supposed to taste. It was the best. My wife went with the short stack and thick crispy bacon. A very enjoyable breakfast. Great service. It is a big roomy restaurant, that gets busy early in the morning and around lunch time. Hours are limited 6am-2pm. Patrons rave about the lunch offering too. The place ain't fancy, but the food is delicious.

The furnishings, decor and spaces are well designed to be modern, contemporary and (comfortably) trendy. The food was high quality. We enjoyed Oysters Rockefeller and Pull Apart Crab Rangoon as appetizers. For our main course, we shared a cut of 16 oz Bison paired alongside a Wedge Salad with thinly sliced green apple that complimented the superb homemade blue cheese dressing. We also had Brussels sprout and asparagus. Our kids shared a fish n chips with Mac n cheese as the "chips!" We drank water with our meal. The drink menu was plentiful for those who enjoy alcohol - it was quite expansive and seemed to have something for every taste from wines and beers and cocktails/specialty drinks. We don't drink alcohol, so we cannot speak with the voice of having tried any of the adult beverages. The dessert menu looked nice, though we didn't save room at this meal to enjoy - we will save that for another time. The pricing was a bit more than one would normally spend in the River Valley - though the ambiance, food quality, menu selections and wow factor were all certainly outstanding and in a class apart from most any other restaurant in this area. By comparison - I would say BluPoint would compare to Oak or Ruth's Chris (both in Rogers, Arkansas and both specializing in steaks). Other comparables in quality and enjoyment factor would be Doe's Eat Place in Fort Smith and the location in Fayetteville (also steak houses). Finally - just a little below those mentioned above (in my view), I would say 21 West End and Stone House at Chaffee Crossing, both in Fort Smith would be comparable to BluPoint. Of course, the menu selections will vary from the places I've mentioned as comparable - BluPoint had two solid options for high quality meat (filet and bison), as well as several seafood options - which makes sense given their specialty. We met the chef and he was friendly and pleasant. His creations (that we tried) were very enjoyable. We paid $270, including a 20% tip for the selections described above - so definitely don't forget the wallet or you'll be washing a lot of dishes!
