Seriously Strong Soulfood
by leapea82
This is the best soulfood - good home cooking place in town. There are some great places to eat on the east side but Arkies can not be beat. Make sure you get the Beef Tips.
- Pros: Your mom can't make food this good.
- Cons: be patient during lunch, line can be long - but moves fast

Great Food
by blove72
Arkies was a great find, we ran across this in the newspaper when they did a story on his restaurant. It's funny how you drive past a place often and never pay attention to it. Well myself and my co-workers finally went and i can say it was great, just as the previos patrons have stated the food is great and yes you pick the one side ya dont want. Service was attentive and food was pleantiful. Will definatly go back for more.
- Pros: Food, Service
- Cons: None

Better than Mom's!
by johnsonax
Some of the best, if not THE best home cooking in Austin. When you order, you don't tell 'em the three sides you want you tell the one you DON'T want: "I'll take the meatloaf, hold the cabbage and rolls".
- Pros: food, food, food!
- Cons: VERY crowded at lunch, but service is fast
