We were *thisclose* to canceling our reservation at Conifer, because my husband was worried about…read moreit being gluten-free, and we fortunately don't have any gluten issues. Well, as you can see, I am giving Conifer a 5-star review. So, it obviously wasn't an issue. In fact, to the contrary: If we would've canceled our reservation, we would've missed out on a fantastic meal and an absolutely lovely experience! The atmosphere is open and modern, but it also manages to feel warm, cozy and subdued. The chairs at the tables are super comfortable, and it's easy to carry on a quiet conversation throughout the meal. The cocktail selection is high-end and fabulous. We sat at the bar to wait for our table to be ready, and that is a well-run show. We both loved our drinks. Our server was excellent: informed, accessible and spent just the right amount of time with us at every turn. We had the cheddar biscuits and this flavored butter situation, the likes of which I've never experienced (and believe me, I've had a lot of butter in my time!). My husband said a couple days later, that he's still convinced there was accidentally gluten in those biscuits. There was NOT -- he just can't account for why they were so good. We both got fantastic entrees, and here is my only critique of the evening. Our roasted/grilled meats were absolutely DELISH, and they both came with sauce and nuts. Way, way too many nuts! For budgetary purposes alone, I'd think the chef wouldn't want to serve that many pine nuts to someone (but the pine nut chili crisp was unique and amazing). I shoved about half the nuts to the side and still had plenty. My husband's dish had the same issue, but with almonds. We figured between our plates, we had about $20 worth of nuts alone, lol. For dessert, we got the ice creams, and holy goodness! They stopped us in our tracks, they were so good. Creamy as all get-out and lusciously flavored. So, if you have a gluten intolerance or allergy, go to Conifer. If you can eat anything in the world, also go to Conifer!

Really delicious dinner with a seasonal local menu, served in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere…read more I really enjoyed the buckwheat pasta (I don't usually order pasta but the horseradish sold me!) and the roasted cauliflower (love the acid, sweet, spice, and texture). Great spot for tasty, interesting food that feels upscale but unstuffy. The parking situation is...not great. But that's true for every business in the area. I'd suggest Ubering or arriving early with time to find parking.

Service was spot on throughout the entire night. We started with the deviled eggs, half plain and half Chef's Choice. The Chef's Choice were the best, drizzled with chili crisp (or pickled Szechuan peppercorns) and topped with a tiny gherkin and fresh dill. The soup of the day was a cabbage and radish soup. It was interesting and very homey but I wish I had ordered the salad. I had the Novarro Farm sweet Potato Gnocchi (kale and pecan pesto, Birch Bottom Farm Georgia candy roaster, fresh chevre). I was a little hesitant about the kale pesto but should NOT have been. This dish was delicious--great garlic flavor. Would order again. The burger looked amazing and while The Hubs said it was good, he also said it needed some more spice. They had a couple of rotating beers from Heirloom--a Mexican Lager and an Italian Pilsner. I had the Water Lily cocktail, their take on an Aviation. Order it just because it's beautiful (and refreshing). The photo does not depict the deep color of it. I asked what other gin based cocktails they had on their menu. They didn't but the server/bartender offered to make me a Bee's Knees for the second round. It was delicious! The atmosphere here is casual but the food is elevated. I kept thinking this is what a French bistro would be like inside. I want to come back and shop the market. Oh, and the apple pie was excellent as well!

Of course the minute I realized the hotel didn't have a restaurant... my retirement road trip survival instincts kicked in: "Find closest pet-friendly patio immediately!" And WOW... what a find! Uncork'd Wine Bar absolutely delivered! This locally loved Fort Smith spot is known for its huge wine selection, cozy upscale vibe, incredible patio, craft cocktails, and surprisingly amazing food menu. Spot on. But honestly? The service may have stolen the show. Friendly, attentive, welcoming to the BBoyz... just one of those places that instantly makes you glad you stopped there And when they overheard me mention I forgot my jacket in the car... they immediately brought me the softest blanket to keep warm on the patio Now THAT is hospitality.
