Yeah, pls. share the menu of some restaurant choices (local 'to you') that are not really chains, but have great food. Novelty places are a plus - you may wanna post menu links and their physical business signs.
Food topics have always gone over well. I have several in mind, but i'll wait and join up, later.

I just frequented the one SR mentioned on Hwy 40. I quit traveling to Springdale in 2006 when I quit working for Tyson. [Reply]
There's a place in Rochester NY, where I grew up, called Nick Tahous. They serve something called a Garbage Plate. There's a variety of ways to order it, but the traditional is to have them put macaroni salad on half your plate, home fries on the other and then top it with a hot dog or burger, onions, mustard and what they call hot sauce. The hot sauce is sort of like the chili they use in skyline chili in Cincy, but more soupy and spicy. You just cut it all up and mix it together and eat it, usually at about 2:00 AM.
I think Culvers is a good place if you have kids and you want to go somewhere where you don't pay a tip, but better than fast food.
I think their fries are good. [Reply]

Maybe I'm wrong about Hwy 40. The one I'm talking about is what I would call north Fayetteville. On a busy road that linked Springdale to Fayetteville. I could never figure out where Springdale ended and Fayetteville started. [Reply]

That's Hwy 71, and yeah... that's definitely a dive location. Just on the side of the Highway, now surrounded by used car lots. Weird little square building that's all dark and dank inside. That's where I order from when I do carryout, though. [Reply]

That's the one. Yellow 'Tim's sign.
I'd make sure to go there once a week when I was working down there. Best pizza I ever found in Arkansas. [Reply]

Maybe, the recipe for the sauce is secret and there's places around town that try and copy it.
I'll name one other. It's just a sub shop but they make a sub that I don't see very often. They call it the Royale. It's spicy sausage shaped in patties to fit on a sub roll, and then topped with capicola, cheese, lettuce and tomato.
It's ridiculously good.
It's in Buffalo NY, so it's doubtful anyone here would ever have reason to go there, but I just love their subs.
