My wife and I have been to Shorty's several times while stopping over on our way to Austin and back and were impressed until they made changes to the menu. The first time I had the prime rib which was to die for. Second trip for another prime rib and it wasn't on the menu any more so I ordered... More

Rib dinner was not as good as I expected but not the worst I've had. Baked beans were too thick but the cole slaw was good. Ribs were tender, not tasty but were edible. I chose it because it was convenient...close to hotel. Will try another restaurant in the future. More

We have eaten at the Shorty Small's in Branson so we chose to eat at the one in Little Rock. I ordered the appetizer size chicken livers in addition to a meal. I could not believe how many chicken livers there were! I was expecting 6 or 7 livers on a plate. Instead, I received a full size dinner portion... More

Because I'm a musician, I'm usually on a limited time frame when trying to eat out before heading to work. That can be an issue trying to eat early Friday evening, and I recognize that many patrons are there for exacly the opposite reason: relaxation. . But my colleague and I had enough time beforehand had we been served in... More

The inside looks like a barn that is half about to fall down, but apparently the waitress said it was on purpose which made it kind of cool. Definitely a "country" atmosphere. They do a good job sticking with their theme. The food was pretty good and wait staff was friendly and attentive. Pretty decent place. More

The atmosphere of this place is wonderful and so is the food. It is a terrific family restaurant and the barbeque is excellent. Very reasonable prices too. Highly recommend this place. More
