Old South Restaurant Review

Breakfast with my daughter, was great. Great people, short wait time, and everything cooked to perfection. What more could you ask for.

The food has gone down hill. I like crispy fried chicken, but the last time I got it it was so crispy, almost burned, it was uneatable. The meat was dry. Its been like this with everything I've ordered for the past 8 years. Shame. Will not ever order from them again.

One of the best chicken fried steaks. The yeast rolls are awesome as well. More food to try next time we pass through

Our waitress was so cool ! I wish I would ve gotten her name

Charming diner. They were extremely busy when we arrived but we were served quickly. I enjoyed the Reuben sandwich and the coconut pie was delicious!

The service was great, the food was good, but wasn't anything special.

Glad for the new owners! Food is really good and reasonable!

This place is for the informal, diner experience. Family, local, environment. Had the hot roast beef sandwich, which was great! The opossum pie is a must have.

Love to eat there. Had an amazing waitress. Thank you Amanda for being amazing!!

Their Bacon Cheeseburger is one of the best I have ever had. The bacon was really good, and the hamburger was cooked perfectly. Old South is one of my favorite places to eat.

Excellent food and Southern hospitality. Highly recommend!

Had a steak and it was great. While table was happy with our food. Try their homemade garlic dressing. Very friendly, great service.

Staff is always friendly! And the food is delicious!

I really enjoy eating at Old South! I like to get their salad's, but everything looks delicious! Oh...and their pie! OH.MY.GOODNESS! Their pie is amazing.

I thought the service was excellent and the food was pretty good at a good price. It has a real homie feel and the homemade salad dressing was a big hit

Leighessa was awesome!!! The food was great and they have Dr. Pepper.

I love old dinners like this, the lady at the front desk at my hotel did good telling me about this place. I love breakfast for supper, everything was good. Great bacon! Great service also, Leighessa had big smile and did great even being her first week. I will be back!

Really has some good service and good food and plenty of places to sit

Very polite staff, excellent food. I had the catfish with fried okra and french fries. My girlfriend had the chicken fried chicken, neither of us were disappointed, the cooks clearly know what they're doing.

Great food! Great people! Great atmosphere! Chicken fried chicken was spot on. Sides were awesome. Will definitely be back!

Awesome breakfast. Petit Jean Ham, biscuits and gravy...

Food was delicious definitely going back. The house made salad dressing "old south" is highly recommended. The best "home cooked" meals.

I just had the best chicken fried chicken I have ever had here. Awesome service.

Great Restaurant! Loved the grilled chicken and baked potato.

LOVE this place! I used to eat here often when I lived in Russellville. Best ranch dressing in town. Good prices and plenty of good food!

Had a great time at Old South! Good food good people!

Simple but busy the house dressing is the best I've ever had.

Awesome place to eat & great atmosphere, first time there but we will be going back very soon
Happy, Happy, Happy

Historic place on Highway 64. Good southern food. Service is usually good. "Home cooked" meals.

Breakfast - great food, but getting expensive...ordered Western omelet and it Cost over $15......UGH

This is the most delicious joint in Arkansas. There sides are unbeatable too.

The chicken fried chicken was excellent.
The staff was extremely friendly & attentive.

Got the chicken fried chicken and it was so good glad we stopped to eat there

Not bad portions are small and the bfast burrito would have been better if the hash browns were inside

Great southern style comfort food. The chicken fried chicken and chicken fried steak both very tender. And hey, Elvis ate here! It on national register for historic places. Didn't try the chocolate gravy but possum pie tasty!! Our waitress, Stacy was excellent

We made a special trip to visit this place and it was well worth it. The staff was friendly and the building was amazing (I enjoy art deco style buildings) and the historical significance of this last if it's kind establishment is inspiring. The food brought back found memories of my childhood with classic southern dishes served by a friendly waitress that was as down home as the diner. I left with a full belly and a smile.

ALWAYS a great place. Good food and friendly staff.

This is probably one of the best restaurants in town. I have been going here for years. They have always cared about quality and it shows through the top notch service and fresh tastes. Plus the price point is spot on. Definitely a must if you are looking for a more home cooked feel.

Been a around for a long time kinda tells you that they are good

The wait staff very friendly and helpful . Food has always been . VERY good care quality.
I love the atmosphere with all the Rock and Roll memorabilia and photo s . I Have been going there since I was a baby. My grandma, my mom , My aunt and Myself have all worked there over the years, it's a great Family Restaurant,

Dale and Zack Summit run a good restaurant. The food is very good, and the service is great. Highly recommended!

Good traditional southern comfort food.
Good breakfast and Dinner menus decent lunch. Good Food, excellent service.

This place has awesome food, awesome service, and the price is too good to be true. My husband and I did good to finish our plates and the total price was half the price of other restaurants we have eaten at recently. And the quality of food there couldn't compare to Old South Restaurant. We will definitely be back to eat there many more times in the future.

Nice little place food was pretty good and has nice old time feel.

Good food great people except the old truck driver that helps out lol he s one of the reasons I eat there I m a trucker also

Great food and they make their own Garlic salad dressing so good

Good food every time. Friendly staff. Even when busy.

Great historical location.
Waitstaff meh.

Very good food. Ate there during down hours so service might have been half asleep especially when I brought the menus to the table. Food was terrific though and I do want to go back. Restaurant is on the NHP.

We stopped for dinner this evening and it was wonderful. It was very busy, but we were seated promptly. Our waitress and all the staff were very accommodating. The food was good, hot, and presented nicely. We'll be back.

Great, classic RUSSELLVILLE restaurant, since like 1950? Garlicky salad dressing is great and unique. Excellent southern diner specialties like biscuits n gravy, fried chicken, pies.

It's just a friendly place to drop in and grab a bite to eat. It's an icon to Russellville.

An Arkansas icon. Hometown dinner feel, and really good salads.
