"My husband and I were spending the weekend in Bentonville looking for something special for my birthday dinner. We had it narrowed down to 2 places and drove by both. Seeing that Fred’s was hiding in some trees appealed to me, so we chose to do reservations here. Wow! What a wonderful experience! First, driving into the parking lot alone made me happy. Beautiful grounds and the old, but lovely, camp buildings were so welcoming. We arrived at dusk, so the patio lights strung across the dense trees created a scene fit for a postcard. The sounds of a singer and his guitar filled the air. Next, the staff... they were all so helpful and catered to my husband’s very specific dietary needs. The chef even cooked his steak in its own pan to avoid cross contamination and made side dishes to meet his needs! Our waitress made us feel like we were the only people in the restaurant, even though it was quite busy. And then there’s THE FOOD... Omgosh, I’ve eaten steak at many great locations across the country, but I’ve never had a better tasting steak; ever!! Tender, excellent flavor and grilled to perfection. The side dishes were also very tasty and well prepared, perfect compliment to the steak. In addition, we finished the evening with an amazing piece of whipped cheesecake with a delicious crust. I couldn’t have imagined a better place anywhere for my birthday dinner! Great job, Fred’s!!"
