Our waitress, Abigail, was delightful. Don ordered a cheese steak baked potato and said it was very good. I ordered a chicken supreme. It was the best chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. Grilled chicken chopped in small bites, then onions and green peppers were added to it with just the right seasoning. It was topped with Swiss cheese and on a huge hoagie roll. Half the sandwich was all I could eat. It was served with potato chips and a crispy dill pickle spear
My decaf coffee cup was full and Don’s soda was refilled without asking. The atmosphere was small cafe friendly but business was good. Christian signs were prominently displayed on the walls. You knew you were in the Bible belt. All in all it was well worth the cost and an enjoyable dinner.

I went to this restaurant for the first time last night. The food was excellent. My friend and I both got burgers and we loved them. I asked for ranch with my meal and it was also very good. The drinks were good and strong. The workers were very nice. They were all very young, probably teens, but they did a great job and were friendly. Anytime we asked for anything, they were happy to bring it and when we said thank you, they said we were welcome. That may seem weird to comment on, but so many times I say thank you to the wait staff and they just ignore me and walk away. I give this place a 10/10. I will definitely be back. The only negative I had was it was freezing in there.

Absolutely amazing food!! The service was great too! I got the patty melt and it was great. Every bite made me want more. Some of the best fried okra and chocolate pie I’ve had! Also they have one of the cleanest bathroom I’ve ever used! 10/10 would eat here again!

I was very upsetting being there. It was dead when we showed up and we waited 45 minutes for our food. Not only was it a very long wait but the food wasnt good enough for the price or the wait. Won’t be returning sadly.

We’ve been coming to Roper’s for years and I realized I had never done a review on it. Shame on me! They have good comfort foods coupled with the nicest servers at reasonable prices. Great Christian atmosphere with Western decor to make anyone feel at home. Gravel Ridge’s best kept secret so shhh….tell everyone!

Ropers Restaurant is a gem in Gravel Ridge!
From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warm, family-friendly atmosphere. This Christian-owned and operated diner goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, treating everyone like part of the family.
The food is absolutely fantastic! Everything is cooked in a delicious, home-cooking style that reminds you of a meal made with love. Whether it’s, lunch, or dinner, every bite is satisfying and comforting. And the prices? Very reasonable—perfect for families or anyone looking for great value without sacrificing quality. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy a hearty, feel-good meal in a welcoming environment, Ropers Restaurant is the place to go. I’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!

So, grew up in Gravel Ridge in the 90s. Come home from time to time, have seen this place but never went until 2 days before Thanksgiving 2025. Nice portions, steak was a touch too salty but still nice, chicken rice was great and the Italian sub could have used more lettuce (there was hardly any on there) and maybe less mayo. Overall, good food and when I’m back home, I’ll try again.

GREAT VIBE! FANTASTIC FOOD!
I have passed this restaurant many times and every time they were BUSY! I figured something must great about this place so this time I didn’t pass it by. Let’s start off by saying “Come as you are.” No need for fancy clothes or reservations. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff are super friendly. The food is well priced, well proportioned, and well seasoned! Whether you are passing through or live in the area, stop in, say howdy, and make your stomach happy with a “home-cooked” meal!

Cute little spot for lunch! Staff were all very friendly. Clean restaurant. Hubby and the turkey sandwich and fries. He enjoyed his sandwich but the fries were a bit overcooked. I had the BLT and it was really good. Generous portions of bacon and cooked perfectly for a sandwich. I got the onion rings and they were delicious! Our kids are moving to Little Rock and we’ll be sure to tell them about Ropers!

Ordered a couple steaks for take out after seeing reviews. They were nicely seasoned and decent cuts of meat. My friend’s filet was prepared nicely, my ribeye was inconsistent. The dining room is very old and run down and that made me very concerned about cleanliness. I’ll find a better option next time I’m in the area.
