About Top of Little Rock
Your guide to Central Arkansas dining
Top of Little Rock exists because Central Arkansas has so much more to offer than chain restaurants along the interstate. While visitors pass through on their way elsewhere, locals know where to find the best Southern cooking, authentic international cuisine, and neighborhood gems that never make the tourist guides.
What We Do
We're here to help you eat like a local. Whether you live in Little Rock, Conway, North Little Rock, or anywhere in Central Arkansas, we want to connect you with restaurants that deserve your attention - not just the ones with the biggest marketing budgets.
Local Knowledge Matters
Central Arkansas is incredibly diverse. The River Market district has a thriving culinary scene. Hillcrest and the Heights offer neighborhood charm. SoMa is the hip new dining district. And the surrounding communities? They're hiding some of the best meals around. We cover it all.
Why We're Different
Most Central Arkansas food coverage focuses on the big chains or treats the whole region as one destination. We know that's wrong. A great restaurant in Conway isn't helpful if you live in Benton. We understand the region's geography and the distinct food scenes that have developed across different communities.
Our approach combines smart technology with genuine local insight. We analyze thousands of reviews and data points, but we never lose sight of what actually matters: helping you find a great meal.
Accuracy First
We work hard to keep our information current. Hours change, menus evolve, and restaurants come and go. We stay on top of it.
Local Support
We're here to help local restaurants succeed. Good visibility online helps bring customers through the door.
Real Responsiveness
Questions? Corrections? Suggestions? We actually read and respond to every message we receive.
Veteran-Owned & Operated
Top of Little Rock is part of the Top Rated Network, a veteran-owned software and digital services company. We bring the same discipline, attention to detail, and commitment to service that we learned in uniform to everything we build online.
How Our Ratings Work
We don't accept payment for placement or ratings. We analyze publicly available reviews from multiple sources to generate scores and recommendations. It's not perfect - no system is - but it's honest. We look at what real customers actually say, not who has the biggest advertising budget.
