We liked the Mardi Gras colors and orientation. It is simple with menu on chalkboard. Salads are fresh and tasty. I liked the Reuben and sauerkraut. It is a casual lunch place and people come in as groups or single. The seating is pick your own. Dessert is up on counter as you order so pick one before they are gone. read more

I love Natalie's. I tend to take a really quick lunch. I call in an order, and in about 10 minutes, I can pick it up. Really good value for what you get also. Real friendly service. read more

The service here is quick! The atmosphere of the restaurant is amazing. But the food, it's the best part. We've eaten at Natalie's for years, and I can honestly say we've never had a bad meal or experience. We've yet to try anything that we haven't loved here! I would highly recommend this restaurant!! read more

Always delicious food and friendly service. Pork Roast Open Face Sandwich is the best!

Must try in batesville. The chicken spaghetti is my fav, but the specials are always good! And her catering is 10/10

While planning a trip that took my wife and me through Batesville, I reviewed Yelp to get an idea of where we may want to stop for lunch. We decided to try Natalie's. The previous reviews were spot on. There is plenty of parking available. The restaurant frontage is inviting. The dining area is comfortable and nicely decorated. Based on the decorations, the owners must be from New Orleans. Meal orders were taken at the counter and delivered to our table. I had a turkey panini with a tomato basil pasta salad side. My wife had a veggie panini with a cucumber and tomato salad. We shared a slice of Italian cream cake. Everything we had was excellent. If I find myself in Batesville again, I will definitely eat there again. There are many items on the menu that made my meal choice difficult. read more

Thank you Natalie and staff for helping me pull off a 80th Surprise Birthday for my mother. They let us decorate and reserved space for 30. All the food was AMAZING!!! Everyone had a great birthday lunch. read more

Delicious and fresh. Great place to relax and eat. Yummy selection and daily specials.

Daily special have been good and a small selection of sandwiches. Not a lot to choose from but other than that I was good

The food is not bad, but nothing to rave about. Popular with locals. Staff is far from "warm and fuzzy" ...almost make you feel like your really not welcome. Really dislike the way food is served. You have to walk up to the counter to place your order, then get your own drinks, and find yourself a table. No silverware on the table, so be sure and get a straw if you want to add sweetener to your tea. The closest thing you get to a waiter is the gal that drops your food on the table and runs away. No sense of connection here to your server or the staff. Given that they seem well staffed, why not let folks come in, sit down, relax, look at the menu and place an order with a waiter that meets you with a smile and makes you feel welcomed and cared about? read more

Great sweet green beans, good atmosphere, even the babies were being nice and orderly. It was a feast lunch experience

Great food and there's always a great variety to pick from on the menu. Although they're only opened during lunch hours, I'd still pick this place. read more

If you are looking for fresh homecooked meals, look no further. Natalie provides a daily special that always blows me away. It is authentic food that is cooked fresh daily. The desserts are to die for! She also caters for many of the businesses and events around town. This place is a stepping stone of the community and brings so many new and familiar faces together! read more

Good lunch food. The plate lunches are great and the chicken spaghetti is good. The staff are friendly sometimes and sometimes not.

I had meatloaf, hash brown casserole, and green beans. It was good, but for the price using catsup as the sauce on the top was a bit disappointing. My wife had a chicken salad panini with corn chips and a corn dip. The corn dip was good, but the chicken salad was lack luster. It was basically canned chicken with mayo and a couple of sliced grapes. Again, for the price it was a bit disappointing. read more

Charming place, excellent food and service! Gluten free bread option. Priced right and nice portions. I had chicken salad and it was delicious with Asian slaw as a side and both were delicious. I'll be back next time I'm in town or maybe even again this visit! read more

The food is amazing. The green beans and Mexican chicken is to die for. Nice inside and outside

We stopped here for lunch while traveling through the area. The atmosphere was very unique, food was great!

Very friendly place with nice open eating arrangements. Seemed there were several "regulars" in line with us which is always encouraging. Was nice having tables like you would find at a family members home and not the same industrial tables found at most other restaurants. First impression of the Reuben before eating was it looked good albeit a little lite. I'll call it the healthy Reuben. Still very good as it were. Likely my fault for getting a Reuben in a Cajun/New Orleans inspired restaurant. Live and learn. The mac and cheese was a little bland but was heavy and made up for the Reuben lite. My next trip to town would I try again? Yeah with the caveat, not for the Reuben or Mac and cheese. read more

Clean nice quaint place for Breakfast or lunch. Worth a stop to try out the menu. Soups, sandwiches, salads, & my favorite, daily hot lunch special. Today was stuffed chicken potato w/green beans. A chicken breast stuffed with potato & cheese. It was great, green beans were a little too sweet for me although it had a good flavor. Service is great and fast! Order at counter & they'll bring your meal. read more

The food is mediocre at best. The service is awful. Not much else to say other than the tacky decor is , something. Prices are steep&If you listen closely you can hear quite loud personal conversations from the back. Made for an entertaining lunch last week. read more

Excellent food, very friendly staff, attractive interior. Not just a restaurant, it's a place of eating culture! My number 1 in Batesville! read more

Nice place! Has a kind of New Orleans feel to decor. Walk up, fast casual service model. Always busy, that should speak for itself. Good place for sandwiches and pasta salad type stuff in Batesville. Shown: Muffelatta and taco soup. read more

Natalie's - a blue plate with a sandwich and a bowl of soup - American Near Me - Batesville, Arkansas

What a great location, concept and execution. Friendly, bright and tasty. I really like my chicken salad on a croissant with a side of fruit. Tasty and filling. Great for a quick lunch with a good friend. Enjoy! read more

I do not live anywhere near here and have no real need or desire to ever return to Batesville, except for this restaurant. It is delicious, reasonably priced, and fresh ingredients. Everything is homemade and cooked with precision and care. The owner and staff are super friendly. The first time I came here I got the chicken salad and it is honestly unlike any chicken salad I have ever eaten. It made me rethink my dislike of salads! The subsequent times (we went 4 times in one week) I had a mixture of the daily special and whatever was recommended to me. None of it disappointed. If you are passing through Batesville and looking for a good, local restaurant, I would definitely recommend Natalie's. read more

Stopped in today and we had the open face roast pork sandwich. The pork was a little sweet. I had the Cajun chicken salad as a side and it didn't taste at all like Cajun, I was also a little sweet. My wife had green beans has her side and they were so sweet she couldn't eat them. read more

One of my favorite restaurants ever! I make sure to visit every time I'm back home. Delicious daily specials as well as a full menu and a seemingly endless list of sides...and desserts! You will not be disappointed! She also does catering :) read more

Excellent food, friendly staff. I recommend the Pink Fluff. Mostly picnic-type foods. Some of the most consistently delicious foods in town.

Natalie's has been a great local place to eat for a while, and the new location provides an even better dining experience. I really enjoy the selection of sandwiches and variety of side dishes. The desserts are delicious too, and the place has a cozy feel. read more

The avocado shrimp salad is exactly what I've been craving my entire life, WOW. So sad Natalie's isn't open on weekends.

By far the best chicken salad on the planet. Staff is awesome! You can expect good food every time you walk in the door.

Natalie's is an amazing place to dine with family or alone. I come here regularly for the food. The one thing I'd die for is if they were open on weekends. Besides having outstanding food, they look great too. The place looks very presentable, for lack of a better term. The employees are always very friendly. The sandwiches here are my favorite in the area. The fruit sides are always fresh. Thanks for the great service! read more

A wonderful place. If you are in the area, you will not be disappointed.Great food and variety. Great service. Give it a try.
