Kiss the Cook Homemade Fooderie — Restaurant in Paragould

Still amazing food but very disappointed in the change in dine in atmosphere. I have been there twice since they have put in the “lounge” area and both times have been a disappointment. Most people do not want to eat a salad sitting on a couch. There is only seating for 13 people at tables…. One of those tables being a checker table with two stools which is where I had to sit with my 71 year old mom. I am not sure which demographic the business is trying to bring in with the couches and dim lights. Both visits I saw people leaving without ordering because they didn’t have a table to sit at. Yet there are two couches and a chair sitting there facing a tv…. Taking up space. Business is being lost and I ask that they reconsider bringing back the tables. The waitress said that we could get our food to go when a table wasn’t available. We travel from out of town and didn’t want to sit in our car on a cold day to eat our food. Again please reconsider bringing the tables back. If you don’t have the staff to wait tables then perhaps expand self service and customers pick up food at the counter when it’s ready.

Libby and her staff are always welcoming, kind, and friendly . The atmosphere is always upbeat and often they will be singing along with the music as they work. You can depend on the restaurant to be spotless and the soups, salads, sandwiches and all her Dinner on Demand items are always great! I have yet to try them all, but all I have tried are delicious!

It has helped countless people who have gone through a heartbreaking time in their life. 100 percent! It doesn’t go to the staff. During this difficult time with the seating area closed , don’t forget Kiss the Cook, and let’s specify that the tips go to the employees for a change. They...

Maybe it's just because they were busy but it took an excessively long time for someone to take my food order on a day I was in a hurry. Then the waitress forgot to bring the crackers I requested to go with my chef salad. The latter was quite unremarkable: a big pile of lettuce with a little cut up sandwich meat, a few croutons, some Kraft shredded cheese and a little bit of bacon bits. The 1000 Island dressing was ok but there wasn't an adequate amount and I had to pay extra for more. Something here must be really good because there was a huge lunch crowd so I'll probably try it again and order something different. My first visit, though, was less than...
