The Box — Restaurant in Little Rock

We saw this place driving by and decided to eat before we went shopping. The prices are not listed on the menu board there are no menus or prices at the seat yourself tables. It took 20 minutes for them to refill the Dr. PEPPER syrup because it was empty. And after that we got our food. I ordered a patty melt with fries that arrived with chips. The burger was dry and very overcooked beyond normal done. The cheese covered just the middle of one side and the grilled onions were about 4 pieces. When my fries came 2 minutes later (now they are fast?) They were luke warm and dark brown with several hard bits. There were 3 occupied rabies by this time. 1 when we arrived. The other person with me got the burger and fry basket special. Total without tip was 28$ I asked for a receipt to see how much the food costed individually and was given one but as I was walking out I saw it was not itemized. Just rang as 28$. We will never go there again. Suggest asking the prices upfront for anyone who does. I wasn't concerned with price and if the food had been reasonably good I wouldn't be...

The Burgers are awesome, the service is questionable. I ordered 2 burger baskets with onion rings instead of fries I was told ok and my order was placed. I ate my food and again the cheese burgers were awesome as were the onion rings. However, when I went to pay the older grey haired woman at the register rang everything up separately (added about 5 dollars to my bill) I explained that I ordered 2 cheese burger baskets and she then informed me that you can't get onion rings on the basket. Now I understand the onion rings are .25 cents more than the fries and expected to pay more but not 5 dollars. I told her I should have been informed when i ordered that what I ordered was not an option. She replied "no you need to tell her not me" speaking of the waitress who took our orders. "I'm not the one who took your order I just rang it up and you can't get onion rings on a burger basket" I just paid and left, but it sure did leave a nasty taste in my mouth. Not sure if I'll...

Think dive bar, greasy food, and everyone is welcome... This place is pretty great and I suspect will be staple of downtown Little Rock for years to come. The atmosphere is casual, but you could encounter a banker from down the street sitting at a table beside a construction crew and another table with state representatives and staff. We all come for the food, which I cannot begin to say enough about. The burgers are their mainstay, but the menu is appealing to a variety of tastes. The staff treats you like you're a regular, and they're fast. This place is great when you want to get out for lunch, but don't have a ton of time to spend away from the office or jobsite.

5 years ago I saw a member of the wait staff apply lotion to her foot while propping herself on the prep station with the hand not lathering her hoof. So yeah... It's authentically a dive with delicious food. *I have observed no such egregious disregards for food...
