Herman's is a NW Arkansas institution. The restaurant earned its place in the AR Food Hall of Fame. Nick, his wife, and the rest of the team know how to take care of folks. Love the old school diner feel.

So, I try this place again today, after a good many years. Gee, what a disappointment. Here's why:Salsa: They serve this salsa with what? Crackers. Never seen or heard of such a thing. Baby back ribs: dry as heck and broke apart like a roast texture. Using electric smokers and no real smoke or rub taste. The BBQ sauce, which I hate to use. It's KC Masterpiece. They're hot is KC Masterpiece with some likely jalapeño juice and pieces. Potatoes: Hard undercooked, under seasoned potato chunks. Really lousy. Au jus: I tried a side, just see what it was like. Some pre-fab lousy au jus. I love old joints like this. But this place is way past its prime. Hardly worth a trip for lunch; let alone dinner.

I've been hunting around Fayetteville all week and finally found a great dining experience. Herman's looks like crack house and claims to be a hole in the wall, but neither description is accurate. Food is great. Wait staff is very attentive and sassy. Although they wouldn't tell me what made the garlic sauce so special. I ordered a steak, but got an a-la-carte rib to try. I picked the rib up and it fell apart in my hand because it was so tender. Steak was a perfectly cooked medium rare and melted in my mouth. Everything slowed down around me while I was savoring the flavor in my mouth. Only dessert option was a basket of lollipops. Great experience over all. If you're ever near Fayetteville it's a must. I was little disappointed that no one got hostile with me. If you stop in there ask for Madeline with a "Y".

Icon. Simply the place to go if you are in Fayetteville. The ribs are fall off the bone but the filet is the star. Get the garlic sauce and thank me later. Take time to look at the pictures and the history. Should be on the historic preservation list! Chef Nick is the man!

Decent ribs, It's not "Malones" or "Jeff Rubys" but has better Chicken fingers. Nice people though!

I had steak that was just ok. It didn't have a grill flavor. A steak house like Outback is a better option. I should've gotten the ribs. I hear they are good.

Used to come here all the time with my wife. Terrible service has turned us away for good. Server threw the check at me in front of my wife, when I asked him why he did so, he began to argue! Will not be back.
