Haven 55 - American restaurant in Pineville - 408 Havenhurst Dr, USA

Great burger! Our server was fantastic and what a view. I was surprised by the interior. I had heard so much about this place over the years that I expected a very nice, upscale atmosphere, it’s very plain and needs updating. With the view of the little falls and river and very good food it’s well worth getting off the beaten path and searching it down, just don’t expect too much atmosphere wise.

I will Focus on the positive side. We had a 16 oz Ribeye for New Year’s Eve Dinner. It was a tasty steak, not up to Ruth Chris standards but very good. The twice baked potato was good. The vanilla crème bru lee was fresh and delicious- the staff was outstanding and very helpful

Beautiful view at this secret little Hideaway place! There's a big river with some Falls and various wildlife that is so lovely to enjoy while you're eating. Have only been for lunch so far and had the salmon sandwich, salad, french fries, fried green beans and creme brulee. All were very good. Servers are nice. Inside is a very plain Decor but it's worth it for all the windows with the lovely view outside!

Such a neat out of way spot to dine by the Elk River. There’s 2 restaurants here, same chef/kitchen. Haven 55 is casually formal, reservations are needed. The tavern is next door and more like a bar-the tavern has a wood fired pizza oven and they offer burgers and bar fare. Aside from the cool location, it leaves a few things to be desired. We ate on the tavern side; while the bartender was certainly nice, there’s nobody waiting on tables. There’s no hostess, and no one bussing tables. For the limited seating they have, a 3 top took up at 8 top table and a 4 top did the same thing. Then there were three 5 tops squeezed into tables sized for 2-3 people. You have to go up to the bar for drinks and to order food. There isn’t a clear line to wait in, you just belly up and hope she’ll get around to you. There’s no salt and pepper, napkins or condiments-you will have to get up and go ask for everything you need. That goes for the check too. After the 3 top at the large table left, we moved over to their table and their dirty dinner plates and beer bottles sat there until we left. The burger I had was decent, didn’t quite meet the edges of the bun, but it tasted good. The produce on the burger was perfect, especially the tomato and pickles. Fries were a little dark, but tasty-they had sat a minute, so not really hot or crispy. My friends had the pizza, see Natasha Kane’s review for that :). I also feel the place could use a good spring clean, the windows were just filthy with spider webs and gnat nests and it was the same for the patio on the haven 55 side. We poked our heads in to haven and every table needed bussing. So maybe they just need more staff? I’ll give them another try in a few months.

Quiet dining environment; nice service and good food with big portion

It took 45 minutes to get our food. There was a large group that came in just ahead of us. The prices were pretty high in my opinion but the hamburger I had was good. The twice baked potato had a good flavor but was very dry. Very limited menu. The service was very good. Kept our drinks filled. Not sure if I'll go back.

Great little place just outside of NWA. Small place. Need reservations. Our server was very attentive and fun, but not overly involved with the table. The food was excellent. We started with the fried green beans which were great dipped in ranch or their house made (mild) horseradish dip. Highly recommend the cedar plank salmon with a twice baked potato. The asparagus was also great.

“Best restaurant around” is only the start to explain how great this place is. From the phone call to get a reservation (yes, you will want to get a reservation) and the fun and friendly hostess who answered the phone to the same excitement that greeted us at the door and throughout dinner, the whole staff experience was phenomenal. Our water and sodas were never empty and the food service was great. Our food choices were the ribeye, New York strip, chicken and salmon options. Even the youngest gave 2 enthusiastic thumbs up to the cheeseburger. Overall this was a top notch experience.
