Really cool place and not super crowded for Sunday brunch. Breakfast burrito and hash skillet were fantastic and lots of food for the price! The best thing we ate was by far the waffles (not pictured) we got multiple sides of them and everyone loved them. Highly recommend getting a savory dish with waffles on the side if you come here.

Wow. Great corn dip, and amazing hush puppies... Because this place has catfish, too! The fajita nachos were quite good, and a huge mound that would easily go three rounds. The catfish was smoking hot, four filets, and heavily seasoned fries, cajunesque, but truly the hush puppies were incredible. Yeah, we are hush puppy snobs. Fun space, with TV sports sadly, and dueling music tracks, but that didn't detract from our enjoyment. The service was a bit brusque, even perfunctory, but it wasn't bad. Just didn't add to our evening. We will totally go back and have the queso and quesadilla, and maybe even some tacos. (We just moved here from San Antonio, and we will go full TexMex tilt. Next time!)

This place was great! We got the house margaritas but did the adjustment with the jalepeno tequila, which was delicious. The salsa duo appetizer was so good, and the chips were perfect. We tried quite a few of the taco options and each was great. The dressing on the side salad was amazing! Our server was friendly and the food was served quickly. We were seated immediately even though there was a bit of a lunch rush. The booths were spacious and spread out so even though it was busy, we didn't feel like we were sitting on top of the other patrons.

My friend and I met for lunch and tried this restaurant out. We were greeted upon entry and seated. Our waitress did a great job explaining their menu and what actually came with what you were ordering and how their platters may differ from other resteraunts. I ordered the fresh mex bowl and I must admit, the portion size was pretty small. There was not a lot of rice but they did add queso to it, which I may have missed that when I looked at the menu. It was delicious but I wanted to eat a little cleaner than that. I got mine made with chicken. The seasoning on the chicken made it a little spicier than what I wanted but my meal was good. It was hot when I got it too. I tried one of my friends nachos and it was really good. The cheese was really delicious and the meat was seasoned well. She said her taco was delicious. It was made with a black corn soft tortilla. I would definitely go back. I did order some churro fries and they were delicious. They came with Carmel to dip them in.

This is an absolute gem! I haven't found anything on the menu I don't like! Locally owned and great variety of food options.

Was in the mood for Mexican food and I have never been here so decided to give it a try. I ordered the fajita steak burrito, a fried fish taco, and a carne asada taco. Everything was delicious. Definitely will be returning. Also give the macha sauce a try if your food doesn't come with it. S/O to Kaitlynn the bartender/server for the great service and drinks!

This is overall a good place. The host on the evening of 9/16 was great, I wish she would have been my server. Bartender was pretty blah and did not seem interested in service or guests which is sad. The chicken sandwich was good and the Old Fashion was good. Advice skip the bar and just sit at a table for service and it is sad I was not offered chips when all other tables had them.

I've now found a place to where if I'm craving burgers and wings this is the place to go. Their wings in the Macha sauce are solid. I think the best in town. Crispy, spicy, sticky, plenty of meat. I mean really solid wings. I finally had the burger, and added fresh jalapeños to it. It was fantastic. Like an elevated dive bar burger. It's a double patty smash burger pretty much. All the ingredients just work so well together. Fresh and the bun is pretty. Even my daughter thought the burger was better than big orange. The Tres Leches cake...stunning. It's not soggy at all or overly spongy and the candied pecans is a really nice addition. We also got the chocolate chip cookie and milk cake. It reminded me of this soft bake Mrs. Fields cookie from the 80s and a glass of milk. That thing was genius. It really brought back a forgotten memory. So way to go! Now...with all this praise, why the 4? The drinks. As excellent as they are, the wait time is so long, you might as well order 2 at the same time. Even the table next to us, got their chips and dip before their beer and wine. It was a solid 15 mins for theirs and it's just beer and wine . Ours was a hot a minute. Like the vibe changed once we were anxiously waiting did our drinks. They either need 3 bartenders or bigger space. Nick our waiter, easily one of the best we've had. Definitely go, it's busy though even after 8 pm. We will be back more often for sure.

It has been awhile. Food was amazing. Fast and friendly service. Blue corn tortillas were so delicious. Each was filled with plenty of meat or veggies. The loaded fries were really good. Plenty of cheese dip on them. The Paloma was so tasty. I could of drank several. Kevin was a great server.

First of all, no one told me Little Rock was rocking like this! People were friendly everywhere I went but when I sat down at Mockingbird, it felt like home. I had one beef and one pork taco with cilantro rice and black beans on the side. I don't know if there are enough adjectives to describe the how and why the flavors did what they were supposed to do. But let's get into this margarita. PERFECTION. If the margs don't taste like these, I don't want them. It's not a drink you can throw back, you have to take your time with it. And it's worth every sip. Interesting thing I learned: the liquor tax in Arkansas is insanely high. I believe the bartender said it's around 32.5% in LR. So if you're visiting the area, go somewhere where the drinks are worth it. Like Mockingbird.
