Take 5 Bistro - EUREKA SPRINGS

I have to admit, this wasn't our planned destination for lunch or dinner when we were in downtown. It wasn't even on my list of recommended restaurants. However, the restaurant we originally intended to visit informed us that they were only serving charcuterie boards for the next hour, so we decided to look elsewhere. We stumbled upon this small but charming place while searching for somewhere to sit down and grab a bite to eat without breaking the bank. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who quickly seated us. Most of the seating consists of small tables by a window facing the street, perfect for people-watching. There are also curtains for privacy if desired. Despite our tight budget, my fiancé and I shared a soft shell crab poboy sandwich and garlic Parmesan fries, both of which were delicious. The sandwich was outstanding, with a tasty sauce, and the fries were crispy and unique. We regret not being able to try more dishes. I highly recommend this hidden gem in town. It may go unnoticed by many due to its location away from the main shops, but it's a cozy spot worth visiting for a meal.

Our food was delicious, and the service was friendly and fast! AND we got to sit in the window and watch people walk by. ?

Excellent food! Every detail is considered. We had the caprese salad appetizer and the tomatoes were very sweet and excellent with the mozzarella, basil, aged balsamic and olive oil. I had the wild mushroom ravioli which was the best I ever had. The fresh ravioli was filled to the brim with a wonderful ragu of wild mushrooms and the creamy alfredo sauce was sweet, complimenting the mushroom ravioli perfectly. My mom had the trout which was light, flaky and well seasoned. My dad had the soft shell crab po boy which was lightly fried and served with a tasty remoulade. I can't wait to go back again! And, this time, leave room for dessert.

Came to Eureka and was looking forward to eating here. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be open anymore. This restaurant was absolutely wonderful too, one of my favorite places to eat. Fresh pasta, fresh trout, amazing cocktails.....and now gone. It would be nice if businesses would reflect this in advertising.

Bobbi provided excellent service and our drinks were delicious. We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant and we will definitely be returning on our next visit.
