    Broccoli rhab
    Brittany M.

    I have been trying to go to more places on this side of town. This building is large with plenty of seating. However it was not crowded on a weekday at 3 pm maybe two parties but it took almost 12 minutes to be seated. Our waitress didn't really introduce herself or her name but was nice just walked up to the table and asked if we wanted drinks. From there 15 more minutes when a man came and got out drink order. That took 12 more minutes. Now two diff waitress came up to us got our appetizer order. The fried green tomato was good and the Spinach dip was one of the best I've had. I can def tell it was homemade. The drinks were good as well. Now my lobster tail were sooooo flavorful and crispy and the broccoli Rhab was amazing and cooked perfectly. I also got a side of Mac and cheese. It was good but I wish it was bigger lol. The Cajun seafood was good but I felt the salmon was a little fishy but not horrible . I would say the food was very very good but the service was super super slow took almost 45 min for entrees but they were friendly

    Chicken n Waffles

    OMGG!! Y'all, run to this restaurant! I made reservations for an early bday celebration, brunch--style w/my girls for, Saturday, 11-22. It was 7 of us! Reservations were at 1:45, however, due to unfortunate circumstances, we were LATE...no fault of mine though, and they were still able to accommodate us!! So thankful for that! The whole restaurant is GORGEOUS!! Very nice decor and spacious! They even have an outside area w/ a stage!! A very pleasant surprise! I will mention though, we did wait a long time for our food to come out, but it was WORTH the wait!! Everyone's food came out hot n fresh! I'm not gonna go through what we all had, but a few of us did get the same thing which was the chicken n waffles!! I'm not too big of a fan of waffles, but it was tasty! Now the chicken.... that stole the show for me!! It was soo good, n seasoned to perfection...chef's kiss! Oh, I can't forget our waitress, ISYS!! She was AWESOME!! Very patient and accommodating!! Needless to say, everyone enjoyed themselves, and for the most part the majority of their food! I will mos. def. go back in the evening/night to experience the night life!

    Whole Red Snapper with sautéed spinach and red beans and rice

    We really enjoyed ourselves at Nouveau. The night we went, they had a live dj with karaoke. They also have a full bar with hookahs and a decent sized menu. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the whole red snapper. Although the shrimp and grits came with a lot of other meat including crab and salmon and of course peppers and was seasoned well, there were parts of the dish that tasted like it was refrigerated. Unfortunately, the dish wasn't as 'fresh' tasting. However my friend's red snapper was delicious. They give you a large whole fish, that was fried golden brown. The sautéed spinach and the red beans and rice, although watery, were really delicious and well seasoned. The waitresses were pretty nice and attentive as well. One other thing we noticed was even though the place wasn't packed out, the music was very loud, almost to the point where we had to shout over the music to hear each other talking... even the waitress had to as well. All in all, good visit and would definitely come back again.

    The food was delicious here. Great service and quality price drinks. The ambiance was really clean and presentable. Will certainly be coming back again.

    I really enjoy this place! The food is always really good. Our server was very attentive. My friend and I come here when we need something local and not too crowded. It's usually fairly empty around lunch time. They have a plethora of things on the menu and I'm never disappointed. My only critique is I wish they would turn the music down JUST a tad. Especially when we are there in the middle of the day. Other than that, this is definitely a staple.

    Had reservations but still a 30 minute wait. Took forever to get our drinks and food. All day brunch menu. Had plastic ware but gave a metal spoon for the grits. My Sister's birthday day party so it is what it is... 18% gratuity auto added for parties of 5 or of your check is $50 or more.

    We can on a weekday without reservations and just sat at the bar. The waitress was nice and attentive. Didn't take too long for our food to come out. It's was served hot which is always a good thing. The fries were delicious and the chicken coating was well seasoned. I had a virgin passion fruit Lemonade and it lacked nothing! Very flavorful juice. My only concern and issue with this establishment is the cleainess of it. The bathroom was nasty/smelly and area's by the ice machine at the bar that had black build-up. I'm observant and couldn't unsee it since I was sitting at the bar. I wanted to get a hot rag and Bleach that metal pieces down cause it's disgusting to look at while trying to enjoy food.... especially if you are clean freak like myself. I have no desire to return even though the fries and drink was on point.

    We arrived at this location by mistake. Our reservation was for the Main St location but they accommodated us. Vee was our waitress. She was very friendly & helpful. Be sure to ask for her when you go. The vibe was chill. The was a private event happening while we were there

    Shrimp and grits

    I went to Nouveau to celebrate a birthday with my besties. My bestie was celebrating her birthday. We were seated fast. The food and cocktails were delicious and Brytni took great care of us. They have yummy grits and the catfish was on point. The DJ had a great music selection and positive energy & a time was had. I love this location.

    Decent food ambience is very chill and inviting. Service was great for the crowd that was there. Waitress was attentive and friendly when we had problems with the food.

    Red Beans & Rice, Nouveau Honey Fried Wings
    Lolita K.

    This is a beautiful establishment located in Jonesboro. The location is nice and I felt safe parking across the street. There is ample , free and uncomplicated parking. We attended on Karaoke night with an extremely large party. The service was commendable considering a large party. I don't know how our server did it but she deserved every bit of her gratuity. I had the Nouveau Honey Wings, substituting the fries for red beans and rice. The wings - delicious. This is a high-quality wing, no black stringy veins inside. Just meaty, cooked perfectly, sticky and tasty. You'll be licking your hands and wanting more. Now the red beans and rice (insert trash emoji)- maybe that's harsh but based on the $3 up charge and the tantalizing description of the dish: "Slow cooked red beans bursting with flavor mixed with white rice and smoked turkey" - I had very high hopes only to be extremely let down. I'll still give them 5 stars because everything else was excellent and maybe there was an off night on the rice, or they used something pre made. Go check them out for yourself!

    Crab Cakes with Mac and Cheese

    I came here around 1:30 pm for a birthday lunch for myself. The establishment was very spacious and lively . I love how I was greeted at the front by the host and I was excited that they had outside seating options that's one of the reasons why I came . My server was MiMi and she did a great job with taking her time elaborating my options for the foods I was leaning towards . The drinks as well as the food was fresh and delicious . I will definitely recommend the restaurant and thank you so much for your service.

I'm of Caribbean descent so I know good island food. The service by the gentleman was 10/10 but sadly the food was disappointing. The rice was undercooked so we got plenty bits of hard rice. The oxtail gravy was just okay. A bit too salty for my liking. My daughter enjoyed the seasoned fries. We also got the banana pudding which was okay. For the drinks my daughter had the lemonade and I had the Arnold Palmer. While flavorful there was way too much sugar. We diluted both with water when we got home and made and extra bottle of juice each. The other reviews are fairly decent so maybe they had an off day. I'll give em another try simply due to the excellent service.... Hopefully we have a better experience. Oh we got the fried fish plate. The fish was decent.

Service: Our waitress was Armani and she was amazing!!! From the time she came to our table to introduce herself until we paid our bills, she was energetic, continously checked on us, and immediately fixed any issues from the kitchen. If you go, ask to sit in Armani's section. Food: Our table of 5 had mixed reviews on the food. Some thought the wings were good while others thought they were unseasoned other than the sauce on top. We generally enjoyed the Jamaican patties despite the confusion on our "patty flight." We were initially given 2 curry patties and later told it was because they didn't have anymore jerk patties. However, we were later sent a jerk patty, so that was confusing. Entertainment: This is where they lacked and why I wouldn't come back. We arrived at 7:30pm. During the time we were there, there was a boring old school play list and the songs people chose for karaoke. We came for karaoke because we'd been told by the bartender that night gets packed. That's not true, at any given time there weren't anymore than 10 tables with guests. Additionally, management was very strict about what songs could be performed for karaoke and told paying customers we couldn't curse. When I asked about this policy, the manger told me it was the traditional global way to be family friendly. If that's your thing, this would be the place for you but it didn't fit our needs for a girl's night and the women in our group were 35-55. Lastly, the two managers appeared to micromanage every move the servers and bartenders made, it just felt weird.

    LONG BUT HONEST REVIEW…read more For starters let me say I had high hopes for Ms. V's Kitchen as I'm a soul food fanatic and love to find gems in my area. The first time I ordered through DoorDash I spent $40 and got the turkey wings (they were good but dry & could've used some more seasoning to my taste), mac & cheese & candied yams with a fruit punch to drink. I was most excited about the mac & yams only to find out via my Dasher that she 'ran out of yams' and I had to choose a substitute. It says online they open from 11am-11pm but in fact they open at 3pm and close at 11pm. I placed my order at 5pm. Not sure how she ran out of yams so quickly with so much of the rest of the day to go.. The Mac & potato salad was good and the fruit punch I loved!! They were very stingy w. the mac tho for what I paid. I was upset I didn't get my yams as well so I tried again the next day. THIS time I called at 11:36 am to find out if yams were being made, being that I only was going to order again if so. She told me personally she would start making the yams at 1pm & that they open at 3pm. I told her I paid a good amount & not for the small portion of side I had received. She assured me when I placed my order that day, she and her workers would make sure I get a much better portion along w. my yams. 3PM came as I already had my items in the cart ready to place my order. I tried to when DoorDash told me I could only place a timed order as Ms. V wasn't opening until 4:15 pm. I didn't know if that was a mistake or what was going on so I called not 1, not 2, but 3 times and none of my calls were answered. I then waited until they finally opened at 4:15pm and immediately placed my order. I was excited bc I knew I was told I would not only get my yams that day but also a better side portion. I ordered the baked chicken (very dry but def more seasoned) instead of turkey wings this time with the same side items and drink. My order arrived around 5:48 pm & the dasher that I get placed w. quite frequently dropped my food off. I opened it to see I was now given 2 sides of Mac w. not a yam in sight. Frustrated I called back to the restaurant at 5:51pm. Ms V spoke to me & told me she not only called me but had the dasher call me as well to tell me the yams 'weren't done yet' & she didn't want me to wait any longer for my order so she substituted mac for the yams. I did not receive ANY of those calls from either party nor did my dasher mention anything of the sorts when he dropped my food off. That specific dasher has texted me many times whenever an issue comes up with an order I have, so to hear that she AND the dasher both called me multiple times w. no answer on my end I do not believe. I was annoyed bc I not only called in the MORNING to ask about the yams BEFORE I placed my order, but was told they would be started at 1pm only for it to be almost 6pm and supposedly they weren't finished yet. The whole reason I ever placed a second order was specifically for the yams I didn't receive the first time. Ms. V apologized and offered to make it up to me by saying she would give me another meal & drink ON HER.. WITH the yams I didn't get for sure. I work at night so I asked when she would be able to fulfill her promise. She asked at first if I could pick up from her restaurant as I told her I couldn't bc my car would be gone after 6pm. She then said not to worry she will deliver my meal PERSONALLY when she got a chance. I couldn't leave the gap of not knowing the time so I asked if it would be late bc I couldn't do late! I work at night. She said NO and to give her about 2hrs (so around 7pm-ish) Hours went by. I tried to be lenient & gave her some extra time bc I thought she may have gotten busy. I didn't receive any update, no call or text so I texted her at 9:50pm. I didn't get a reply back until 10:51 PM... NINE MINUTES BEFORE CLOSING with only the words "on the way now". I was highly upset as this is not what I agreed to, there was little to no poor communication on her end and I was already at work. I called 4/20/21 at 1:22pm for my final time. She answered and I asked if I'd be able to get the plate she promised. She responded w. "ooooh Ana I sent that order out the other night and it was kind of a waste bc you weren't there". I immediately almost choked bc the audacity and explained to her that what she did was send out an order at almost 11pm & not the time she told me. Again this time she said she still had my order in her texts and phone from the last time and that she would have my meal delivered but did not apologize. The ENTIRE day has went and gone. I never heard from her again. She did not deliver the meal she promised for the third time. Ms. V did not value me as a customer nor appreciate my business so I will take it elsewhere.

There was plenty of free parking available and no cover fee. I was the last one to arrive at the table (only about 5 minutes late).

I ordered a sprite and she brought a can that was dented without noticing, so it had to be exchanged to avoid an explosion upon opening it. The food was just okay. I liked their cheese sticks, but the house salad with salmon was lacking flavor. No one at the table seemed to love their food. A few ordered pasta, wings and differing apps. Overall, we enjoyed the music selection that the djay played and the vibes were good. They required a large deposit for reservations, but it seemed like there were plenty of empty seats available and ease to walk in and sit either at the bar or at a table without one. I am not sure if I'd return any time soon, but it was not a bad experience.
