Skinny J's Paragould

My burger was nasty dry no flavor my fries was homemade had funny taste couldn't eat but 2 and my mozzarella sticks was from box you get at walmart. My husband wanted ribeye couldn't get cause they was cutting them what the heck if they cutting it throw one on grill. Wanted crab cakes out. Lady wanted baked potato next to me she got told only after 5 and its 10 mins till 5 really. I was not impressed at all. 110 bucks later I walked out hungry everyone is different my opinion.

Ribeye was cooked to perfection.

Wide array of menu options. Steaks were too expensive for my business card unfortunately, but I am sure they are great!

Let Big Herb walk you through his experience here. Been hearing mixed reviews and wanted to see for myself. The staff was courteous and professional. Waitress was the best part of the experience. It was 4:30 PM and Big Herb wanted a ribeye. His heart was shattered when he was told that there were none available until 5:00 as they were being cut. Now immediately I was thinking that if they are slicing them, just pop one my way. The menu said baked taters had to wait to 5:00. Odd one but whatever. Big Herb opted for the filet. I wanted crab cakes but they didn't have those. Went with the reuben rolls and they were very good. Had Ceasar side salad and Brussels sprouts. Not too bad. I feel this place is caught somewhere between bar food and trying to achieve a five star rating. There's good things here but plenty of work ahead of them in the kitchen. The wife ordered a burger and fries. She had cheese sticks as appetizer. Cheese sticks are just ordinary like you buy at grocery store and nothing special. Her fries were spiral cut and she said they had an off flavor about them. I immediately noticed her burger. I was expecting a hand pattied beauty but instead, she received a frozen patty that looked over cooked. She said it was very dry and the bun was thick so it made for a struggle. The prices are as others report and way too high. I can get a quality filet at any steak house for 2/3 the price. Not a bad place but we will mostly likely stick to other options.

the food is consistently good

Fantastic service and the food is pretty good. The steak is an A++ but not $40 for 8oz good.

The 8 oz filet done "Pittsburgh style" is to die for. At $43 it's a relative bargain... and that's with two sides (and outstanding service from the attentive, but not hovering, wait staff) Gordon Ramsay in KC charges $69 for the same size cut... with NO SIDES! Carson's, in Sikeston MO gets $65 for a similar cut with 2 sides. My sides were a very large house salad and LG baked potato. Wife had the salad and broccoli ...which would be my only (tiny!) complaint... it's a very small serving. Broccoli isn't a really expensive option and IMHO should be a larger serving. Like I said, a tiny complaint! Overall, it's always an excellent meal... enough so that every couple months we make the nearly 2 hour drive to Paragould just for the restaurant. If we lived closer we'd like to try some of the other enticing menu selections.... but that filet!!....
