Small town… but very nice place. The atmosphere was nice… the service was great… team work was great & we were a large group… servers & staff did great… the atmosphere was warm & inviting… not too bad for a first visit… I’d do it again… and bring some great people in with me. Prices are reasonable… I loved the shrimp taco.

My wife and I stumbled upon this hidden gem in Wilson, Arkansas when they first opened for the day. Excellent place to for breakfast and plan to go back for a dinner date. Walked around the town square as it just adds to the overall environment. Food was on point and service was top notch. They even have a large indoor patio area that can be rented for larger groups. We may just do that. Looking forward to next time.

The food service was very slow, but everyone was pleasant. The food was quite tasty. Lunch is mostly barbecue, salads and sandwiches and very generous portions. I had very good beef tri-tip and it was enough for two meals. Prices are moderate. I had an aperitif, a very large portion of food and a take home dessert for $37. I recommend this.

I have always wanted to try Wilson Cafe since I found it, and man, I am so glad I have finally fulfilled that wish, because it’s everything I expected. First, the cafe itself is beautiful, and so is the town of Wilson, even though it’s in the middle of nowhere. The cafe was a mix of a classic but modern dining experience that was elevated to be high class. It was gorgeous! We started off with the Smithey Cast Iron Rustic Bread, which, with the butter, was so yummy. The heavy amounts of garlic in it made me smile. My boyfriend ordered the Mushroom Gnocchi and I ordered the Pork Chop. I was skeptical of the gnocchi, as most gnocchi I have tried in restaurants were always so chewy it almost always tasted raw and bland, but Wilson Cafe’s did not disappoint. It was flavored perfectly with butter and it was especially great paired with the mushroom. Of course, I though the Pork Chop was much better, and honestly, it’s because it was. The Pork Chop was not dry, which I was scared of because it’s such a thick cut, but instead it was the juiciest and best Pork Chop(sorry mom) that I ever ate. The first bite literally melted in my mouth. The tomatoes on the sides mixed with it perfectly, though I wasn’t a big fan of the lettuce being there because it just got soggy. And don’t even get me started on the deliciousness of the potatoes. I wish Wilson Cafe were closer to Jonesboro so I could go every day, but it’s definitely worth the drive!

Let’s with the food, Good Lord! I’ve roamed and rambled all over the deep south, but NEVER have I had better beignets! The main course (Farmers breakfast) was a great addition to the meal. Staff was polite and attentive and always ready. The decor was very nice not to pretentious with a nice mix of modern/historic.
I highly recommend the Cafe.

Wilson’s Cafe was such an incredible find! The name does not do it justice at all, but that’s what makes it such a nice surprisee! First, of all the interior and exterior of the building are so upscale yet inviting. Light and bright with lots of windows. There was a live flower on every table. I wouldn’t have changed one detail of the decor.
The food was delicious. We started with the Memphis Barbecue Deviled Eggs. Apparently, the deviled egg appetizer changes each day. I can’t imagine a better choice. I had the shrimp grits for my entree, and it was definitely the best I have ever had. There were four very large perfectly fried shrimp over creamy, spicey grits. My husband went with the salmon, which he said was very good. The sides were Delta rice and broccoli. He liked them both, but went on and on about how great the rice was.
If you are a wine drinker, the wine selection is much better than almost anywhere else in Arkansas, much less Northeast Arkansas. The staff is knowledgeable on wine and are very willing to help with the selection. Both staff members that we encountered were friendly, but professional.
My only complaint about Wilson’s Cafe, is that is too far from home for me to visit often. It was definitely worth the drive from Crowley State Park to have a nice Anniversary Dinner. If we are ever this way again, we will definitely swing by Wilson, AR. I would love to try the weekend brunch!

We had a very disappointing dinner experience last night compared to an awesome lunch experience last November. We had a reservation last night, table did not meet my expectations, we waited 30 minutes to get our drinks after reminding the waitress. My dinner plate was missing some of the sides, I had to ask for them. And then the room started to smell like someone is cleaning the grill in the kitchen. All my clothes smell awful. Completely different experience to our last visit when we were welcomed, service and food were awesome.

We visited the place during the lunch hour. Me, and my colleagues were planning for having lunch here for quite some times. Finally we made it. The place looks absolutely fine and posh. It was mostly crowded, and there is a bar too. We sat in a nice table. Each table has a nice, small, showy bunch of flowers. We ordered some fried cauliflowers to start with. They were absolutely yum! Crunchy, a little spicy, fried stuff with a nice sauce on top is the perfect one to begin the meal. They are neither greasy, nor dry, perfectly moist and crunchy. In the main course i ordered a salmon salad. My other colleagues ordered hamburger steak platter and a burger with fries. They found their food quite fascinating too. My salad was amazing. Although i’m not a salad person, i found this one as perfect. The lettuce with avocado and cherry tomatoes , were already seasoned in some dressing. The salmon was perfectly seasoned, and crunchy. The overall meal was very refreshing, and filling. I absolutely loved it. Although i must say, that the service was quite sow. We had to wait for our final check and we didn’t dare to ask for the desert, as it would again take some time to arrive, which was not possible for us. Overall, it was quite a nice dine in experience.
