Chicken Parmesan
Freddy D.

Surprisingly good food in a small town restaurant. The atmosphere is vibrant and the staff is incredibly friendly and tentative.

Regular Ravioli

Cleaned the plates! The customer service was excellent. The lasagna was heavier and savory, while the ravioli is a lighter pasta if that's what you're looking for.

Small chicken and spaghetti
Lynnet P.

I hadn't been here in close to 30 years. It hasn't changed one bit! Still charming, still delicious, still friendly.

Small portion of the chicken and spaghetti plate. Always Delicious!

You absolutely have to Try this little spot right on highway 412. Always a great experience. They have daily specials but I can't go there without getting the small chicken and spaghetti meal. Beautifully fried chicken breast and a portion of their fresh made spaghetti made by their own pasta house in the back building. It's so good. The spaghetti comes with a generous portion of their homemade meat sauce. The house salads are so fresh and comes w their homemade Italian dressing. The homemade rolls are always fresh and yummy. Everything here is "Homemade" and you can actually purchase Mama Z'a dry pasta and Italian dressing from a small display case at the register. You won't be disappointed. Our server was Lisa and she was wonderful!

If you haven't had the grape cobbler at Mama Z's you're missing out! The service was excellent and the spaghetti was delicious.

We recently went to US Pizza in tontitown to meet our children and grands for Sunday lunch. We got…read morethere and they immediately told us they were low on cheese and the truck would t be there until the next day. I understand restaurants can run on certain items but all of their cheese was being rationed. We asked about them going to Harps or Sam's (both less than 1 mile away) and they said it wasn't restaurant quality pizza cheese. Or why wouldnt they use cheese from one of their other restaurants in the area? Why didn't they shut the doors after they used all the cheese rather than trying to ration it? One of the stupidest management mistakes I know. It doesn't give me much confidence they'll have what they need in the future.

Had this place recommended (to me) by an in-law - which given the source of reference - always find…read moreto be quite a crap shoot. Here's how I sum this place up: It's a middle of the road "ok" pizza place. Would I go there again if I had to? Yes. But I wouldn't be the one (ever) seeking this place out or putting on (my) go to list of places to go to. Pizza/salad combo lunch special: for the price, I thought it a good enough value for the money. The service to the place went well on this day...and they were a bit busy. For the food: Pizza: The crust texture was kinda ok, and the taste was kinda ok. But it was a crust that's intended to mimic a hand tossed - rather than being a real hand mixed/tossed pizza crust. The pizza sauce, was hardly present and couldn't taste it on this day. The sausage and onion toppings (did) taste good and fresh. However, something like the sausage. Isn't made in-house at all. The pizza itself is 6" for lunch...and I didn't measure...but it must've shrunk in the cooking process. I've never had slices so tiny - that they were kinda cute in how small they were. Salad: a real nice size salad for a lunch special. This place touts "World Famous" Italian dressing. Uhm.....no...don't think so. But the dressing is ok. One downer to the salad: fake bacon bits. You know....tye kind you think you're gonna break a tooth (kind). lol. This place; I wouldn't waste one of my prime time dinner times, on this place. But need a lunch place, it's ok for that, so long as you're not looking for anything, too special and better in pizza.

Stunning. A beautiful store in a beautiful small town downtown that's been/being revived. This…read morefacility is modern, yet traditional. It's exceptionally comfortable and shiny clean. It's family-friendly, as well as providing peace and quiet for those seeking that. Pastries are excellent. Ice cream is excellent. Coffee is superb (and that's from someone visiting from Seattle) and world-class. And downstairs is the production center for Onyx's Terroir world-class chocolate brand, producer of award-winning chocolate by the mind and palate that was the driving force and the cofounder behind Markham and Fitz before joining Onyx. Be sure to check that facility out downstairs when you visit and have a taste of the amazing chocolates (and probably a bit of chocolate learning while you're there). We brought both coffee and chocolate back to Seattle.

An Onyx in downtown Springdale is exactly what Emma Avenue needed! They have been revamping this…read morepart of downtown and the addition of this Onyx is sure to bring even more people down here. I came in the morning so did not get to try their cocktails or ice cream but love that those are options here; they are now doing so much more than just coffee. This location is an old bank and Onyx redesigned it to make such a cool use of the space while still preserving the overall layout and architecture. The upstairs is a designated work space where no phones are allowed, the main floor is the coffee shop, and the basement is a shop and their chocolate factory! It honestly feels like Onyx has thought of everything. Not only is their coffee delicious, but they are on the cutting edge of everything a trendy coffee shop should have. They have an "onyx honor bar" where you can fill a cup of their house coffee and tap to pay without waiting in line. Their iced teas come with free refills. They have a case full of delicious pastries and chocolates to choose from. They have a walk-up window for ice cream, so you don't even have to go inside and wait in the same line as those wanting coffee. You can see the chocolate factory downstairs in the old bank vault and the staff can tell you which chocolates pair best with which of their coffees. The shop downstairs is all tap-and-go, allowing you to get what you need without waiting for someone to come help you. I got a hot Onyx Delight which is a staple on their menu that is hard to pass up; it is a signature latte with vanilla, cinnamon, and honey that is made perfectly every time. I will always be a big Onyx fan and am stoked to have this location in Springdale!
