"The overall experience was phenomenal, especially the specials noted by our server. Both I and my boyfriend chose an item from the specials of the day. He had the game special, which was duck for the evening. I had the atlantic cod special. We enjoyed our choices very much. He is from Switzerland and from our conversation, this was one of the best restaurants he's been to in Arkansas so far. Well done Theo's!"

"Not too long ago Theo's was the "other place" to go when seeking a special dinner on Dickson Street. Now it is "the" place to go and for good reason. The dishes are inspired, carefully crafted, and beautifully plated. The waiter cared for a table of eight with aplomb. The guests included vegans, vegitarians, picky eaters, and unabased foodies and the menu was able to accomodate all preferences wihtout having to force substitutions and change menu items. It was a comfortable and enjoyable evening for us as the hosts and out guests. The check came and was as nicely received as was the food - no sticker shock."

"I don't generally give a 5 star recommendation - for anything! Our dinner at Theo's was absolutely outstanding, starting with impeccable service. The food was wonderful, and the presentation was great. I felt very comfortable there; the restaurant was lively and the staff always helpful but never intrusive. The crowd was of all ages. One of my best restaurant experiences."

"We had a group of 8 and all of us really enjoyed our evening. Super great service and food. It was our first time there and we can't wait until we can return. The online site was of great help in selecting your restaurant for our evening diner. They even gave us free of charge homemade ice cream and sorbet because the waiter accidentally dropped a fork. We didn't complain and just laughed. The dessert was fantastic. We highly recommend this restaurant!"

"Atmosphere is casual elegance, warm and comfortable. Nice array of appetizers include fresh oysters on the half shell and scallop civiche' in addition to typical warm appies. I had seared tuna and my wife had scallops with rissoto, both well prepared with good presentation. The wasabi mashed potatos and fried leeks were perfect compliments to the tuna. One of the top two restaurants in Fayetteville and among the best in Northwest Arkansas."

"My wife and I were going to see a show at the Walton Arts Center. We are not Fayetteville residents and chose Theo's based on the online reviews and proximity to the theater. I was impressed and satisfied. Theo's was quick and efficient without being rushed or frantic. The server was very knowledgeable, personable, and attentive without being overbearing or annoying. He immediately asked if we were going to the show so as to time our meal to get us out with plenty of time.The restaurant is dark and cozy. Modern feel and professional. The food was very good. I had the steak frites and the temperature was perfect! (Medium rare is so often over or under done). Overall, an excellent dining experience. And complimentary, valet parking! WOW!"

"We had a reservation, but were a few minutes late. However, upon arrival, were told that the previous party hadn't yet left, and were given the option to wait at the bar. I'm an amiable fellow, and this seemed suitable, so we made no complaint. We felt so bad being late- we were relieved that it was a mutual delay. However, the manager all but bent over backwards to make reparations to us. He bought us a round at the bar- superb Scotch collection, by the way- and once seated, routinely checked on us himself. The food was spectacular; we started with Calamari, and had the filet and pork two ways for our mains, then the molten chocolate and the apple dumplings for dessert. They were narrowly made decisions though- everything sounded enticing."

"I made reservations at Theo's for my wife and I to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. Everything was PERFECT!
They have complimentary valet parking which was a great first impression.
From the time we walked in until we left, we were greeted and congratulated on celebrating our anniversary by several different people, but not in an interruptive or disrespectful sort of way.
I had ordered flowers and asked that they be placed on our table prior to arrival, which they were exactly as I asked.
They comped our desserts and brought us a complimentary champagne toast.
