BURGERS

Down South, we have a healthy respect for the tender flavours and rich tastes beef dishes can deliver. Southern steak houses, hamburger joints and gourmet restaurants all have one thing in common. They know how to treat beef.

Whether you are hungry for a juicy burger with all of the trimmings, a southern fried steak or a perfectly prepared steak tartar, Southern Chefs bring to the table famous "political" burgers and remarkable gourmet beef based creations.

Doe's Eat Place

1023 West Markham Street
Little Rock, AR 72201
(501) 376-1195
does@doeseatplace.net
Meats Spicy AR [DINING] [ATTRACTIONS] [RECIPES]
www.doeseatplace.net

What has become a Little Rock landmark of national renown -- Doe's Eat Place -- has its origins in the unlikeliest of models, a no-frills diner deep in the delta. But then nothing about Doe's is quite what one would expect from a world-class steakhouse -- except fabulous steaks, that is. A longtime regional favorite, Doe's rose to national prominence during the 1992 presidential election campaign, when Clinton staffers made it their hangout. When then-candidate Clinton was interviewed by Rolling Stone magazine for the September cover story, Doe's was the setting. Throughout the vagaries of political fame & fortune, however, Doe's has maintained its down-to-earth atmosphere. New photographs and clippings may continue their spread across the walls, but the real stars will always be our "eats," including steak you can cut with a fork; burgers, homemade tamales.

The Beacon serves food with a "talk to me, talk to me" rapidity that comforts the regulars and often disarms the unintiated. Not only have presidents given their nod to the Beacon's good 'n plenty food served fast, the Food Network has featured their cheeseburgers.
