Very cold beer, excellent service. Quesadillas are a great starter. A/C is nice on a hot day.

Uuuuuuu thats the sound of me groaning because this food is so awful. A fellow coworker and I went here for lunch and we both left very dissapointed. In a rush and wanting to go down to the river district we walked into the first place we saw. Yuck what terrible food. The sandwhiches here are laughable and small. A point where both of us laughed is when they brought out a bag of lay chips as a side. You go to restaurants to get something you can't make at home or easily, a bag of chips seriously? The sandwhich was just done poorly, and bland. I couldn't taste the dill sauce. The reason I gave this place 2 instead of 1 is because service was good, atmosphere good, and I'm sure there is something better there then there sandwhiches. Probably should have gone with the flapjacks. I'm not discouraging anyone for going here, because its hard to give a full review with one visit. I just couldn't reccomend this place.

I eat lunch here every time I go to Little Rock. I also come back at night some times to listen to the bands or sit on th patio and enjoy the weather and cold beer. This place is a chicken shack, don't expect anything more than that. It's not a chicken and waffles shack either (too bad) it is a chicken fingers anyway you like it shack. The decor is covered in original rock 'n roll artistry. It is what all independent eateries should strive for "a defined character for the eatery". You shouldn't visit or live in Little Rock without experiencing the Sticky's.

I've been here three times the first two times I ordered the voodoo chicken fingers and both times they were the exact same as my friend's who ordered original and tasted the same. I only ordered them the second time to see if they would be different and they weren't. Also the service was slow and took upwards of 30 minutes to get some over done chicken fingers. The third time was a class function and when we arrived we were told it would be 45 minutes before we were even allowed to order food and our friends who were already there said they waited over an hour for their food so we just left. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry or want good food.

great food. The chicken fingers are phenomenal and the service is pretty good. Cool place to hang out and maybe see some live music.

This place brings in the best live shows in the city. The drinks are a little overpriced, but not too bad in comparison to many other places in the River Market. The food's great. I LOVE the chicken nachos and the James Brownie! This is pretty much the only bar I like in the River Market.

I make it to LR several times a year. Most times I'd rate Stickyz a 3, maybe a 4 on a good day, but this past weekend I'm going to go with a 2. Came in around 10pm last Saturday (no cover charge if you stay out of the live music stage area of the bar). We were part of a large group of wedding guests that trickled in following the wedding reception. We were happy to find easy seating for 15+ on the patio, but the service was unfortunate. Was told I had to order my food/beverage at the bar. I ordered and opened a tab.. Suddenly a waitress appeared and took other orders at my table. I told her I'd ordered at the bar and was told that I'd have to go up there and check on it b/c they were so busy. I didn't want to annoy the busy bartender (I've been there myself, in the past, bartending and serving food for 4 years) so I waited an appropriate amount of time. Checked on my order and was dismissed. The bartender wasn't rude, or friendly, or apologetic or anything for that matter; void of emotion. I got busy with conversation and lost track of time. The waitress came back around and I again asked about my order, she was sorta friendly and said she would check. Minutes later, out came the bartender with my order. Chicken fingerz are the specialty and that's what I'd ordered with a basket of fries. Fries were room temp; chicken was warm, but overcooked. I ate and wasn't complaining until a friend got her order (same thing as mine) and it looked totally different. Her chicken was perfectly golden and yummy (and only took about 20 minutes, where mine had taken over 40 to make its way to me). In comparing the two dinners I realized what had happened. My order had sat somewhere waiting loooong after it was ready. When they realized it was mine, it was cold, so it was tossed back in the fryer to heat it up. I ate a couple of my fingerz and gave the rest with my cold fries to some drunk friends. I ate one of my friend's well cooked fingerz and it was the same type of yummy that I had come to expect from this place. I didn't complain because I didn't expect any results since they seemed to be understaffed and no one seemed particularly friendly. Leaves me wondering: why is a downtown bar/restaurant so poorly staffed on a Saturday evening? I will probably still go back to Stickyz b/c I like the fingerz (when they are fresh), the patio and the location. Next time I will just lower my expectations if my visit is late night on a weekend.

Got the fingerz....biscuit was cold and dry, fingers were ok but sauces were all bland except for the "voodoo" sauce which was just regular wing sauce...at least it's cheap and the decor is interesting.

Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!! Not exactly a place to bring the kids, especially little ones, but makes for a great date night or girls night out!! Every experience I've had here has exceeded my expectations, from service to the food. We will definitely be back!

I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.

Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.

Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.

Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.

Kristen A.
For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.

Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

Salty Fingerz..... I really wanted to like this place! Cool vibe, prime location and great service. It's downfall is what it's supposedly known for! The chicken tenders!! Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!

Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.

They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.

Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.

My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.

Tanielle J.
The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.

Have been in twice, once for lunch-had a salad that was quote good. Recently was back with out of town family and we went with appetizers. The artichoke fondue is quite good as are the chicken fingers. (Great sauce selection). We also enjoyed the the chicken nachos. My niece and nephew were happy, so I was happy.

Food is absolutely delicious!!! We stopped here on the way to Tulsa, OK. We had chicken fingers, onion rings, and the pizza was to die for! The decor and atomsphere are incredible! Live entertainment was Fire & Brimstone - awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about this place and the show!!! Please stop in, we loved it. From the Flying Eagles MC, Baltimore, MD

The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.

Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!

Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.

I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.

Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.

One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!

Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.

I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!

Sabertooth C.
It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.

Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!

I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!

I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.

Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!

After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...

Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.

I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!

Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!

Two words: Barely palatable. If you feel the urge to stop in, RESIST!!! The service sucks and the food is even worse.

Sticky Fingerz has been the anchor of the River Market for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite places to walk to for fun lunch Fridays. Margarita Fingerz with VooDoo Sauce is the way to go. If you're lucky, you might catch a mid-week Kyoto Boom show, even.

This place as a hold on its followers I will say. Once again I was out with a friend on a lunch date and she suggested this place. I wasnt going to be the one who said no so I agreed. She then called me back and said that she forgot about me not being a fan of this place becuase of the service had fallen and the food was average. I informed her that I was fine with it. I arrived early and we were seated in the non smoking section. Within in two minutes, a waitress came to my table and asked what I wanted to drink. I went ahead and ordered a beer not knowing how long it would be until my friend arrived. The beer arrived super cold and she walked in right after and when the waitress saw she was here she came over and took our order. We each ordered the oriignal fingerz and decided to try four different sauces. voodoo, creamy dill, blue cheese and I forgot the last one. The food was a little crunchy and appeared to be over cooked but the flavor was delicious and the indise was a moist as it good get. After my first bite, I was a fan of these fingerz. WOW. I wasnt expecting that at all. To address a fellow Yelper's comment on it being cold inside, man I agree with you but, they pay thier bill because it was 90+ degrees outside and at least 40 inside. they must like it cold in there.. I bet you you sat in the band area. Those high ceilings help keep the concerts cool in the summer.. I am a fan of Sticky Fingerz now.

We came with high hopes for the Chicken fingers and Fried chicken platters. very disappointed. Chicken was dry and loaded with salt. Had to send back the chicken Soprano because it tasseled like an Oregano bottle exploded onto it. Sorry to give it such a bad review, but I honestly think McDonalds Southern style chicken sandwich is better.

Voodo fingers and fries are a great combo for lunch. Not too hot, but spicy enough to satisfy the hard core heaters. The ruben is also a great meal along with the pizzas. Friendly staff always checking on you. Only gripe is that not enough fries are served with the lunch specials. full bar with smoking, non-smoking, and outside seating. I frequent here for lunch.

Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.

I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!

Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!! Not exactly a place to bring the kids, especially little ones, but makes for a great date night or girls night out!! Every experience I've had here has exceeded my expectations, from service to the food. We will definitely be back!

I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.

Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.

Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.

For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.

My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.

Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.

The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.

Have been in twice, once for lunch-had a salad that was quote good. Recently was back with out of town family and we went with appetizers. The artichoke fondue is quite good as are the chicken fingers. (Great sauce selection). We also enjoyed the the chicken nachos. My niece and nephew were happy, so I was happy.

Food is absolutely delicious!!! We stopped here on the way to Tulsa, OK. We had chicken fingers, onion rings, and the pizza was to die for! The decor and atomsphere are incredible! Live entertainment was Fire & Brimstone - awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about this place and the show!!! Please stop in, we loved it. From the Flying Eagles MC, Baltimore, MD

The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.

Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.

Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!

Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.

I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.

Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.

One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!

Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.

I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!

Salty Fingerz..... I really wanted to like this place! Cool vibe, prime location and great service. It's downfall is what it's supposedly known for! The chicken tenders!! Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!

Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.

They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.

It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.

Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!

I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!

I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.

Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!

Average, but close to my hotel, so they get three stars. Nothing so great to Yelp about.

After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...

Ate here tonight. Great chicken fingers! Get original and then get the dipping sauce. Good happy hour as well. We will be back.

Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.

O goodness, where do I even begin? I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!

Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!

Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.

I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!

decent food, just was not impressed with it overall -- but everyone in LR seems to love it... chicken is good...but it is just chicken fingers at the end of the day to me - maybe i had a bad experience, either way i am sure i will give em a second chance in the near future

Jason N.
Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.

Chad E.
I eat lunch here every time I go to Little Rock. I also come back at night some times to listen to the bands or sit on th patio and enjoy the weather and cold beer. This place is a chicken shack, don't expect anything more than that. It's not a chicken and waffles shack either (too bad) it is a chicken fingers anyway you like it shack. The decor is covered in original rock 'n roll artistry. It is what all independent eateries should strive for "a defined character for the eatery". You shouldn't visit or live in Little Rock without experiencing the Sticky's.

I make it to LR several times a year. Most times I'd rate Stickyz a 3, maybe a 4 on a good day, but this past weekend I'm going to go with a 2. Came in around 10pm last Saturday (no cover charge if you stay out of the live music stage area of the bar). We were part of a large group of wedding guests that trickled in following the wedding reception. We were happy to find easy seating for 15+ on the patio, but the service was unfortunate. Was told I had to order my food/beverage at the bar. I ordered and opened a tab.. Suddenly a waitress appeared and took other orders at my table. I told her I'd ordered at the bar and was told that I'd have to go up there and check on it b/c they were so busy. I didn't want to annoy the busy bartender (I've been there myself, in the past, bartending and serving food for 4 years) so I waited an appropriate amount of time. Checked on my order and was dismissed. The bartender wasn't rude, or friendly, or apologetic or anything for that matter; void of emotion. I got busy with conversation and lost track of time. The waitress came back around and I again asked about my order, she was sorta friendly and said she would check. Minutes later, out came the bartender with my order. Chicken fingerz are the specialty and that's what I'd ordered with a basket of fries. Fries were room temp; chicken was warm, but overcooked. I ate and wasn't complaining until a friend got her order (same thing as mine) and it looked totally different. Her chicken was perfectly golden and yummy (and only took about 20 minutes, where mine had taken over 40 to make its way to me). In comparing the two dinners I realized what had happened. My order had sat somewhere waiting loooong after it was ready. When they realized it was mine, it was cold, so it was tossed back in the fryer to heat it up. I ate a couple of my fingerz and gave the rest with my cold fries to some drunk friends. I ate one of my friend's well cooked fingerz and it was the same type of yummy that I had come to expect from this place. I didn't complain because I didn't expect any results since they seemed to be understaffed and no one seemed particularly friendly. Leaves me wondering: why is a downtown bar/restaurant so poorly staffed on a Saturday evening? I will probably still go back to Stickyz b/c I like the fingerz (when they are fresh), the patio and the location. Next time I will just lower my expectations if my visit is late night on a weekend.

Got the fingerz....biscuit was cold and dry, fingers were ok but sauces were all bland except for the "voodoo" sauce which was just regular wing sauce...at least it's cheap and the decor is interesting.

I've been here three times the first two times I ordered the voodoo chicken fingers and both times they were the exact same as my friend's who ordered original and tasted the same. I only ordered them the second time to see if they would be different and they weren't. Also the service was slow and took upwards of 30 minutes to get some over done chicken fingers. The third time was a class function and when we arrived we were told it would be 45 minutes before we were even allowed to order food and our friends who were already there said they waited over an hour for their food so we just left. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry or want good food.

Uuuuuuu thats the sound of me groaning because this food is so awful. A fellow coworker and I went here for lunch and we both left very dissapointed. In a rush and wanting to go down to the river district we walked into the first place we saw. Yuck what terrible food. The sandwhiches here are laughable and small. A point where both of us laughed is when they brought out a bag of lay chips as a side. You go to restaurants to get something you can't make at home or easily, a bag of chips seriously? The sandwhich was just done poorly, and bland. I couldn't taste the dill sauce. The reason I gave this place 2 instead of 1 is because service was good, atmosphere good, and I'm sure there is something better there then there sandwhiches. Probably should have gone with the flapjacks. I'm not discouraging anyone for going here, because its hard to give a full review with one visit. I just couldn't reccomend this place.

This place brings in the best live shows in the city. The drinks are a little overpriced, but not too bad in comparison to many other places in the River Market. The food's great. I LOVE the chicken nachos and the James Brownie! This is pretty much the only bar I like in the River Market.

Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!!

I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.

Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.

Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.

Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.

For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.

My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.

Tanielle J.
The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.

The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.

Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.

Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!

Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.

I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.

Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.

One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!

Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.

I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!

Salty Fingerz..... I really wanted to like this place! Cool vibe, prime location and great service. It's downfall is what it's supposedly known for! The chicken tenders!! Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!

Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.

They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.

A little Dive Bar-esque. Good patio to grab a drink at on a nice day. Strong drinks, good margaritas, ok barfood. Pretty in and out if you're just wanting to grab a quick drink.

It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.

Really solid chicken strips in a quirky atmosphere. Nice servers, good beer. Good location. Check it out.

Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!

I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Great atmosphere, decent food and good live music. Is the kinda place where you can get a quick bite to eat or just hang out awhile and relax in the sofas. The tables are as sticky as the food which was part of its charm! Decent beer selection also.

The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!

I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.

Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!

After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...

Ate here tonight. Great chicken fingers! Get original and then get the dipping sauce. Good happy hour as well. We will be back.

Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.

O goodness, where do I even begin? I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!

Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!

Sticky Fingerz has been the anchor of the River Market for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite places to walk to for fun lunch Fridays. Margarita Fingerz with VooDoo Sauce is the way to go. If you're lucky, you might catch a mid-week Kyoto Boom show, even.

This place as a hold on its followers I will say. Once again I was out with a friend on a lunch date and she suggested this place. I wasnt going to be the one who said no so I agreed. She then called me back and said that she forgot about me not being a fan of this place becuase of the service had fallen and the food was average. I informed her that I was fine with it. I arrived early and we were seated in the non smoking section. Within in two minutes, a waitress came to my table and asked what I wanted to drink. I went ahead and ordered a beer not knowing how long it would be until my friend arrived. The beer arrived super cold and she walked in right after and when the waitress saw she was here she came over and took our order. We each ordered the oriignal fingerz and decided to try four different sauces. voodoo, creamy dill, blue cheese and I forgot the last one. The food was a little crunchy and appeared to be over cooked but the flavor was delicious and the indise was a moist as it good get. After my first bite, I was a fan of these fingerz. WOW. I wasnt expecting that at all. To address a fellow Yelper's comment on it being cold inside, man I agree with you but, they pay thier bill because it was 90+ degrees outside and at least 40 inside. they must like it cold in there.. I bet you you sat in the band area. Those high ceilings help keep the concerts cool in the summer.. I am a fan of Sticky Fingerz now.

We came with high hopes for the Chicken fingers and Fried chicken platters. very disappointed. Chicken was dry and loaded with salt. Had to send back the chicken Soprano because it tasseled like an Oregano bottle exploded onto it. Sorry to give it such a bad review, but I honestly think McDonalds Southern style chicken sandwich is better.

Voodo fingers and fries are a great combo for lunch. Not too hot, but spicy enough to satisfy the hard core heaters. The ruben is also a great meal along with the pizzas. Friendly staff always checking on you. Only gripe is that not enough fries are served with the lunch specials. full bar with smoking, non-smoking, and outside seating. I frequent here for lunch.

Christopher B.
Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.

I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!

decent food, just was not impressed with it overall -- but everyone in LR seems to love it... chicken is good...but it is just chicken fingers at the end of the day to me - maybe i had a bad experience, either way i am sure i will give em a second chance in the near future

Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.

I eat lunch here every time I go to Little Rock. I also come back at night some times to listen to the bands or sit on th patio and enjoy the weather and cold beer. This place is a chicken shack, don't expect anything more than that. It's not a chicken and waffles shack either (too bad) it is a chicken fingers anyway you like it shack. The decor is covered in original rock 'n roll artistry. It is what all independent eateries should strive for "a defined character for the eatery". You shouldn't visit or live in Little Rock without experiencing the Sticky's.

Uuuuuuu thats the sound of me groaning because this food is so awful. A fellow coworker and I went here for lunch and we both left very dissapointed. In a rush and wanting to go down to the river district we walked into the first place we saw. Yuck what terrible food. The sandwhiches here are laughable and small. A point where both of us laughed is when they brought out a bag of lay chips as a side. You go to restaurants to get something you can't make at home or easily, a bag of chips seriously? The sandwhich was just done poorly, and bland. I couldn't taste the dill sauce. The reason I gave this place 2 instead of 1 is because service was good, atmosphere good, and I'm sure there is something better there then there sandwhiches. Probably should have gone with the flapjacks. I'm not discouraging anyone for going here, because its hard to give a full review with one visit. I just couldn't reccomend this place.

I've been here three times the first two times I ordered the voodoo chicken fingers and both times they were the exact same as my friend's who ordered original and tasted the same. I only ordered them the second time to see if they would be different and they weren't. Also the service was slow and took upwards of 30 minutes to get some over done chicken fingers. The third time was a class function and when we arrived we were told it would be 45 minutes before we were even allowed to order food and our friends who were already there said they waited over an hour for their food so we just left. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry or want good food.
(1)Don W.
great food. The chicken fingers are phenomenal and the service is pretty good. Cool place to hang out and maybe see some live music.

This place brings in the best live shows in the city. The drinks are a little overpriced, but not too bad in comparison to many other places in the River Market. The food's great. I LOVE the chicken nachos and the James Brownie! This is pretty much the only bar I like in the River Market.

I make it to LR several times a year. Most times I'd rate Stickyz a 3, maybe a 4 on a good day, but this past weekend I'm going to go with a 2. Came in around 10pm last Saturday (no cover charge if you stay out of the live music stage area of the bar). We were part of a large group of wedding guests that trickled in following the wedding reception. We were happy to find easy seating for 15+ on the patio, but the service was unfortunate. Was told I had to order my food/beverage at the bar. I ordered and opened a tab.. Suddenly a waitress appeared and took other orders at my table. I told her I'd ordered at the bar and was told that I'd have to go up there and check on it b/c they were so busy. I didn't want to annoy the busy bartender (I've been there myself, in the past, bartending and serving food for 4 years) so I waited an appropriate amount of time. Checked on my order and was dismissed. The bartender wasn't rude, or friendly, or apologetic or anything for that matter; void of emotion. I got busy with conversation and lost track of time. The waitress came back around and I again asked about my order, she was sorta friendly and said she would check. Minutes later, out came the bartender with my order. Chicken fingerz are the specialty and that's what I'd ordered with a basket of fries. Fries were room temp; chicken was warm, but overcooked. I ate and wasn't complaining until a friend got her order (same thing as mine) and it looked totally different. Her chicken was perfectly golden and yummy (and only took about 20 minutes, where mine had taken over 40 to make its way to me). In comparing the two dinners I realized what had happened. My order had sat somewhere waiting loooong after it was ready. When they realized it was mine, it was cold, so it was tossed back in the fryer to heat it up. I ate a couple of my fingerz and gave the rest with my cold fries to some drunk friends. I ate one of my friend's well cooked fingerz and it was the same type of yummy that I had come to expect from this place. I didn't complain because I didn't expect any results since they seemed to be understaffed and no one seemed particularly friendly. Leaves me wondering: why is a downtown bar/restaurant so poorly staffed on a Saturday evening? I will probably still go back to Stickyz b/c I like the fingerz (when they are fresh), the patio and the location. Next time I will just lower my expectations if my visit is late night on a weekend.
(2)Ashley B.
Got the fingerz....biscuit was cold and dry, fingers were ok but sauces were all bland except for the "voodoo" sauce which was just regular wing sauce...at least it's cheap and the decor is interesting.

Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!! Not exactly a place to bring the kids, especially little ones, but makes for a great date night or girls night out!! Every experience I've had here has exceeded my expectations, from service to the food. We will definitely be back!

I love this. The decor is fantastic. The food was very good and very creative. Located in a very neat part of town. Sound guy is a serious pro and super, super nice. We enjoyed everything about it. Long live, Stickyz!

I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.
(3)Noah H.
Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.
(3)Arko B.
Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.
(5)Debbie V.
Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.
(3)Kristen A.
For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.
(3)Bobby M.
Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!

Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.

They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.

A little Dive Bar-esque. Good patio to grab a drink at on a nice day. Strong drinks, good margaritas, ok barfood. Pretty in and out if you're just wanting to grab a quick drink.
(3)John L.
decent food, just was not impressed with it overall -- but everyone in LR seems to love it... chicken is good...but it is just chicken fingers at the end of the day to me - maybe i had a bad experience, either way i am sure i will give em a second chance in the near future
(3)Jason N.
Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.
(4)Jeff H.
Good beer and good food. Out of towner from Houston in town for the week and it was nice to find a place with live music and great atmosphere.
(4)Dianna S.
My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.
(3)Tanielle J.
The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.
(1)Devon W.
Quirky atmosphere but terrible food! Everything sounded great on the menu but had zero flavor or tasted mass made. Drink menu seemed better than food menu so maybe just a place to meet for drinks.
(1)meli f.
A dive bar with ok food! Got their chicken finger speciality but it wasn't anything special. Like the option of sauces and bartenders are generous when it comes to alcohol!
(3)William L.
Been here twice... Must be because I'm a male I get no service... Never come here... Crappy staff
(1)J R.
Have been in twice, once for lunch-had a salad that was quote good. Recently was back with out of town family and we went with appetizers. The artichoke fondue is quite good as are the chicken fingers. (Great sauce selection). We also enjoyed the the chicken nachos. My niece and nephew were happy, so I was happy.
(3)Terri C.
Food is absolutely delicious!!! We stopped here on the way to Tulsa, OK. We had chicken fingers, onion rings, and the pizza was to die for! The decor and atomsphere are incredible! Live entertainment was Fire & Brimstone - awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about this place and the show!!! Please stop in, we loved it. From the Flying Eagles MC, Baltimore, MD
(5)Lara L.
Average. Everything was overcooked and took 40 minutes for lunch to be served. Probably a better bar...
(3)Katherine W.
The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.
(4)Penny N.
Big fan of Sticky's! Had their blue Hawaiian sandwich and it was awesome! I really like their chicken fingers and you can always pick great sauces. Cool environment and great place to hang out on the patio.
(5)Rodney A.
Really awesome atmosphere here. The hamburgers are drinks were really good.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.
(1)Jordan W.
Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!
(5)Paul O.
Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.
(1)Elizabeth L.
Pretty bad. I'd skip it and go to the Flying Saucer instead. We went to both places the same night ... here the chicken was dry and tasteless & the salads looked like taco toppings.
(1)Hannah P.
I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.
(5)Jesse B.
Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.
(1)Kaylie L.
One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!
(5)JEREMY G.
Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.
(5)Amy A.
I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!
(4)Sabertooth C.
It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.
(2)Nick F.
Really solid chicken strips in a quirky atmosphere. Nice servers, good beer. Good location. Check it out.
(4)Lara S.
Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!
(4)Amber L.
I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
(5)Trea Z.
Great atmosphere, decent food and good live music. Is the kinda place where you can get a quick bite to eat or just hang out awhile and relax in the sofas. The tables are as sticky as the food which was part of its charm! Decent beer selection also.
(5)Arturo S.
Unique restaurant and fun menu with plenty to choose from.
(4)Jeff H.
The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!
(4)Dale R.
I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.
(2)Huzefa M.
Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!
(1)Kevin M.
Average, but close to my hotel, so they get three stars. Nothing so great to Yelp about.
(3)Myra P.
After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...
(2)Squishy S.
Ate here tonight. Great chicken fingers! Get original and then get the dipping sauce. Good happy hour as well. We will be back.
(5)Michael H.
Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.
(3)Jenny M.
O goodness, where do I even begin? I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!
(1)Whitney H.
Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!
(3)Emilia R.
Two words: Barely palatable. If you feel the urge to stop in, RESIST!!! The service sucks and the food is even worse.
(1)Bryan J.
Sticky Fingerz has been the anchor of the River Market for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite places to walk to for fun lunch Fridays. Margarita Fingerz with VooDoo Sauce is the way to go. If you're lucky, you might catch a mid-week Kyoto Boom show, even.
(4)Mark H.
This place as a hold on its followers I will say. Once again I was out with a friend on a lunch date and she suggested this place. I wasnt going to be the one who said no so I agreed. She then called me back and said that she forgot about me not being a fan of this place becuase of the service had fallen and the food was average. I informed her that I was fine with it. I arrived early and we were seated in the non smoking section. Within in two minutes, a waitress came to my table and asked what I wanted to drink. I went ahead and ordered a beer not knowing how long it would be until my friend arrived. The beer arrived super cold and she walked in right after and when the waitress saw she was here she came over and took our order. We each ordered the oriignal fingerz and decided to try four different sauces. voodoo, creamy dill, blue cheese and I forgot the last one. The food was a little crunchy and appeared to be over cooked but the flavor was delicious and the indise was a moist as it good get. After my first bite, I was a fan of these fingerz. WOW. I wasnt expecting that at all. To address a fellow Yelper's comment on it being cold inside, man I agree with you but, they pay thier bill because it was 90+ degrees outside and at least 40 inside. they must like it cold in there.. I bet you you sat in the band area. Those high ceilings help keep the concerts cool in the summer.. I am a fan of Sticky Fingerz now.
(4)Robert V.
We came with high hopes for the Chicken fingers and Fried chicken platters. very disappointed. Chicken was dry and loaded with salt. Had to send back the chicken Soprano because it tasseled like an Oregano bottle exploded onto it. Sorry to give it such a bad review, but I honestly think McDonalds Southern style chicken sandwich is better.
(1)Brian P.
Voodo fingers and fries are a great combo for lunch. Not too hot, but spicy enough to satisfy the hard core heaters. The ruben is also a great meal along with the pizzas. Friendly staff always checking on you. Only gripe is that not enough fries are served with the lunch specials. full bar with smoking, non-smoking, and outside seating. I frequent here for lunch.
(4)Christopher B.
Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.
(4)Kate E.
Awesome fingers!
(4)Lee P.
I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!
(5)Savannah C.
Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!! Not exactly a place to bring the kids, especially little ones, but makes for a great date night or girls night out!! Every experience I've had here has exceeded my expectations, from service to the food. We will definitely be back!
(5)Jaimeson R.
I love this. The decor is fantastic. The food was very good and very creative. Located in a very neat part of town. Sound guy is a serious pro and super, super nice. We enjoyed everything about it. Long live, Stickyz!
(5)Toby T.
I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.
(3)Arko B.
Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.
(5)Debbie V.
Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.
(3)Kristen A.
For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.
(3)Dianna S.
My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.
(3)Noah H.
Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.

Two words: Barely palatable. If you feel the urge to stop in, RESIST!!! The service sucks and the food is even worse.

Sticky Fingerz has been the anchor of the River Market for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite places to walk to for fun lunch Fridays. Margarita Fingerz with VooDoo Sauce is the way to go. If you're lucky, you might catch a mid-week Kyoto Boom show, even.

This place as a hold on its followers I will say. Once again I was out with a friend on a lunch date and she suggested this place. I wasnt going to be the one who said no so I agreed. She then called me back and said that she forgot about me not being a fan of this place becuase of the service had fallen and the food was average. I informed her that I was fine with it. I arrived early and we were seated in the non smoking section. Within in two minutes, a waitress came to my table and asked what I wanted to drink. I went ahead and ordered a beer not knowing how long it would be until my friend arrived. The beer arrived super cold and she walked in right after and when the waitress saw she was here she came over and took our order. We each ordered the oriignal fingerz and decided to try four different sauces. voodoo, creamy dill, blue cheese and I forgot the last one. The food was a little crunchy and appeared to be over cooked but the flavor was delicious and the indise was a moist as it good get. After my first bite, I was a fan of these fingerz. WOW. I wasnt expecting that at all. To address a fellow Yelper's comment on it being cold inside, man I agree with you but, they pay thier bill because it was 90+ degrees outside and at least 40 inside. they must like it cold in there.. I bet you you sat in the band area. Those high ceilings help keep the concerts cool in the summer.. I am a fan of Sticky Fingerz now.

We came with high hopes for the Chicken fingers and Fried chicken platters. very disappointed. Chicken was dry and loaded with salt. Had to send back the chicken Soprano because it tasseled like an Oregano bottle exploded onto it. Sorry to give it such a bad review, but I honestly think McDonalds Southern style chicken sandwich is better.

Voodo fingers and fries are a great combo for lunch. Not too hot, but spicy enough to satisfy the hard core heaters. The ruben is also a great meal along with the pizzas. Friendly staff always checking on you. Only gripe is that not enough fries are served with the lunch specials. full bar with smoking, non-smoking, and outside seating. I frequent here for lunch.
(4)Tanielle J.
The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.
(1)Devon W.
Quirky atmosphere but terrible food! Everything sounded great on the menu but had zero flavor or tasted mass made. Drink menu seemed better than food menu so maybe just a place to meet for drinks.

A dive bar with ok food! Got their chicken finger speciality but it wasn't anything special. Like the option of sauces and bartenders are generous when it comes to alcohol!
(3)William L.
Been here twice... Must be because I'm a male I get no service... Never come here... Crappy staff
(1)J R.
Have been in twice, once for lunch-had a salad that was quote good. Recently was back with out of town family and we went with appetizers. The artichoke fondue is quite good as are the chicken fingers. (Great sauce selection). We also enjoyed the the chicken nachos. My niece and nephew were happy, so I was happy.
(3)Terri C.
Food is absolutely delicious!!! We stopped here on the way to Tulsa, OK. We had chicken fingers, onion rings, and the pizza was to die for! The decor and atomsphere are incredible! Live entertainment was Fire & Brimstone - awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about this place and the show!!! Please stop in, we loved it. From the Flying Eagles MC, Baltimore, MD
(5)Lara L.
Average. Everything was overcooked and took 40 minutes for lunch to be served. Probably a better bar...
(3)Jeff H.
Good beer and good food. Out of towner from Houston in town for the week and it was nice to find a place with live music and great atmosphere.
(4)Katherine W.
The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.
(4)Penny N.
Big fan of Sticky's! Had their blue Hawaiian sandwich and it was awesome! I really like their chicken fingers and you can always pick great sauces. Cool environment and great place to hang out on the patio.
(5)Rodney A.
Really awesome atmosphere here. The hamburgers are drinks were really good.

Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.
(1)Jordan W.
Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!
(5)Paul O.
Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.
(1)Elizabeth L.
Pretty bad. I'd skip it and go to the Flying Saucer instead. We went to both places the same night ... here the chicken was dry and tasteless & the salads looked like taco toppings.
(1)Hannah P.
I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.
(5)Jesse B.
Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.
(1)Kaylie L.
One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!
(5)JEREMY G.
Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.
(5)Amy A.
I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!
(4)Ramon L.
Salty Fingerz..... I really wanted to like this place! Cool vibe, prime location and great service. It's downfall is what it's supposedly known for! The chicken tenders!! Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!
(3)Kelly S.
Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.
(3)Sara B.
They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.
(3)John S.
A little Dive Bar-esque. Good patio to grab a drink at on a nice day. Strong drinks, good margaritas, ok barfood. Pretty in and out if you're just wanting to grab a quick drink.
(3)Sabertooth C.
It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.
(2)Nick F.
Really solid chicken strips in a quirky atmosphere. Nice servers, good beer. Good location. Check it out.
(4)Lara S.
Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!
(4)Amber L.
I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
(5)Trea Z.
Great atmosphere, decent food and good live music. Is the kinda place where you can get a quick bite to eat or just hang out awhile and relax in the sofas. The tables are as sticky as the food which was part of its charm! Decent beer selection also.
(5)Arturo S.
Unique restaurant and fun menu with plenty to choose from.
(4)Jeff H.
The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!
(4)Dale R.
I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.
(2)Huzefa M.
Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!
(1)Kevin M.
Average, but close to my hotel, so they get three stars. Nothing so great to Yelp about.
(3)Myra P.
After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...
(2)Squishy S.
Ate here tonight. Great chicken fingers! Get original and then get the dipping sauce. Good happy hour as well. We will be back.
(5)Michael H.
Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.
(3)Jenny M.
O goodness, where do I even begin? I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!
(1)Whitney H.
Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!
(3)Christopher B.
Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.
(4)Kate E.
Awesome fingers!
(4)Lee P.
I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!
(5)John L.
decent food, just was not impressed with it overall -- but everyone in LR seems to love it... chicken is good...but it is just chicken fingers at the end of the day to me - maybe i had a bad experience, either way i am sure i will give em a second chance in the near future
(3)Jason N.
Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.
(4)Chad E.
I eat lunch here every time I go to Little Rock. I also come back at night some times to listen to the bands or sit on th patio and enjoy the weather and cold beer. This place is a chicken shack, don't expect anything more than that. It's not a chicken and waffles shack either (too bad) it is a chicken fingers anyway you like it shack. The decor is covered in original rock 'n roll artistry. It is what all independent eateries should strive for "a defined character for the eatery". You shouldn't visit or live in Little Rock without experiencing the Sticky's.
(4)Joe D.
Very cold beer, excellent service. Quesadillas are a great starter. A/C is nice on a hot day.
(5)Tessa B.
I make it to LR several times a year. Most times I'd rate Stickyz a 3, maybe a 4 on a good day, but this past weekend I'm going to go with a 2. Came in around 10pm last Saturday (no cover charge if you stay out of the live music stage area of the bar). We were part of a large group of wedding guests that trickled in following the wedding reception. We were happy to find easy seating for 15+ on the patio, but the service was unfortunate. Was told I had to order my food/beverage at the bar. I ordered and opened a tab.. Suddenly a waitress appeared and took other orders at my table. I told her I'd ordered at the bar and was told that I'd have to go up there and check on it b/c they were so busy. I didn't want to annoy the busy bartender (I've been there myself, in the past, bartending and serving food for 4 years) so I waited an appropriate amount of time. Checked on my order and was dismissed. The bartender wasn't rude, or friendly, or apologetic or anything for that matter; void of emotion. I got busy with conversation and lost track of time. The waitress came back around and I again asked about my order, she was sorta friendly and said she would check. Minutes later, out came the bartender with my order. Chicken fingerz are the specialty and that's what I'd ordered with a basket of fries. Fries were room temp; chicken was warm, but overcooked. I ate and wasn't complaining until a friend got her order (same thing as mine) and it looked totally different. Her chicken was perfectly golden and yummy (and only took about 20 minutes, where mine had taken over 40 to make its way to me). In comparing the two dinners I realized what had happened. My order had sat somewhere waiting loooong after it was ready. When they realized it was mine, it was cold, so it was tossed back in the fryer to heat it up. I ate a couple of my fingerz and gave the rest with my cold fries to some drunk friends. I ate one of my friend's well cooked fingerz and it was the same type of yummy that I had come to expect from this place. I didn't complain because I didn't expect any results since they seemed to be understaffed and no one seemed particularly friendly. Leaves me wondering: why is a downtown bar/restaurant so poorly staffed on a Saturday evening? I will probably still go back to Stickyz b/c I like the fingerz (when they are fresh), the patio and the location. Next time I will just lower my expectations if my visit is late night on a weekend.
(2)Ashley B.
Got the fingerz....biscuit was cold and dry, fingers were ok but sauces were all bland except for the "voodoo" sauce which was just regular wing sauce...at least it's cheap and the decor is interesting.
(2)Nicholas S.
I've been here three times the first two times I ordered the voodoo chicken fingers and both times they were the exact same as my friend's who ordered original and tasted the same. I only ordered them the second time to see if they would be different and they weren't. Also the service was slow and took upwards of 30 minutes to get some over done chicken fingers. The third time was a class function and when we arrived we were told it would be 45 minutes before we were even allowed to order food and our friends who were already there said they waited over an hour for their food so we just left. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry or want good food.
(1)Gene G.
Uuuuuuu thats the sound of me groaning because this food is so awful. A fellow coworker and I went here for lunch and we both left very dissapointed. In a rush and wanting to go down to the river district we walked into the first place we saw. Yuck what terrible food. The sandwhiches here are laughable and small. A point where both of us laughed is when they brought out a bag of lay chips as a side. You go to restaurants to get something you can't make at home or easily, a bag of chips seriously? The sandwhich was just done poorly, and bland. I couldn't taste the dill sauce. The reason I gave this place 2 instead of 1 is because service was good, atmosphere good, and I'm sure there is something better there then there sandwhiches. Probably should have gone with the flapjacks. I'm not discouraging anyone for going here, because its hard to give a full review with one visit. I just couldn't reccomend this place.

great food. The chicken fingers are phenomenal and the service is pretty good. Cool place to hang out and maybe see some live music.

This place brings in the best live shows in the city. The drinks are a little overpriced, but not too bad in comparison to many other places in the River Market. The food's great. I LOVE the chicken nachos and the James Brownie! This is pretty much the only bar I like in the River Market.

I make it to LR several times a year. Most times I'd rate Stickyz a 3, maybe a 4 on a good day, but this past weekend I'm going to go with a 2. Came in around 10pm last Saturday (no cover charge if you stay out of the live music stage area of the bar). We were part of a large group of wedding guests that trickled in following the wedding reception. We were happy to find easy seating for 15+ on the patio, but the service was unfortunate. Was told I had to order my food/beverage at the bar. I ordered and opened a tab.. Suddenly a waitress appeared and took other orders at my table. I told her I'd ordered at the bar and was told that I'd have to go up there and check on it b/c they were so busy. I didn't want to annoy the busy bartender (I've been there myself, in the past, bartending and serving food for 4 years) so I waited an appropriate amount of time. Checked on my order and was dismissed. The bartender wasn't rude, or friendly, or apologetic or anything for that matter; void of emotion. I got busy with conversation and lost track of time. The waitress came back around and I again asked about my order, she was sorta friendly and said she would check. Minutes later, out came the bartender with my order. Chicken fingerz are the specialty and that's what I'd ordered with a basket of fries. Fries were room temp; chicken was warm, but overcooked. I ate and wasn't complaining until a friend got her order (same thing as mine) and it looked totally different. Her chicken was perfectly golden and yummy (and only took about 20 minutes, where mine had taken over 40 to make its way to me). In comparing the two dinners I realized what had happened. My order had sat somewhere waiting loooong after it was ready. When they realized it was mine, it was cold, so it was tossed back in the fryer to heat it up. I ate a couple of my fingerz and gave the rest with my cold fries to some drunk friends. I ate one of my friend's well cooked fingerz and it was the same type of yummy that I had come to expect from this place. I didn't complain because I didn't expect any results since they seemed to be understaffed and no one seemed particularly friendly. Leaves me wondering: why is a downtown bar/restaurant so poorly staffed on a Saturday evening? I will probably still go back to Stickyz b/c I like the fingerz (when they are fresh), the patio and the location. Next time I will just lower my expectations if my visit is late night on a weekend.
(2)Ashley B.
Got the fingerz....biscuit was cold and dry, fingers were ok but sauces were all bland except for the "voodoo" sauce which was just regular wing sauce...at least it's cheap and the decor is interesting.
(2)Nicholas S.
I've been here three times the first two times I ordered the voodoo chicken fingers and both times they were the exact same as my friend's who ordered original and tasted the same. I only ordered them the second time to see if they would be different and they weren't. Also the service was slow and took upwards of 30 minutes to get some over done chicken fingers. The third time was a class function and when we arrived we were told it would be 45 minutes before we were even allowed to order food and our friends who were already there said they waited over an hour for their food so we just left. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry or want good food.

Uuuuuuu thats the sound of me groaning because this food is so awful. A fellow coworker and I went here for lunch and we both left very dissapointed. In a rush and wanting to go down to the river district we walked into the first place we saw. Yuck what terrible food. The sandwhiches here are laughable and small. A point where both of us laughed is when they brought out a bag of lay chips as a side. You go to restaurants to get something you can't make at home or easily, a bag of chips seriously? The sandwhich was just done poorly, and bland. I couldn't taste the dill sauce. The reason I gave this place 2 instead of 1 is because service was good, atmosphere good, and I'm sure there is something better there then there sandwhiches. Probably should have gone with the flapjacks. I'm not discouraging anyone for going here, because its hard to give a full review with one visit. I just couldn't reccomend this place.

Great menu & an array of items to choose from. Laid back, fun, & inviting atmosphere!! Not exactly a place to bring the kids, especially little ones, but makes for a great date night or girls night out!! Every experience I've had here has exceeded my expectations, from service to the food. We will definitely be back!
(5)Jaimeson R.
I love this. The decor is fantastic. The food was very good and very creative. Located in a very neat part of town. Sound guy is a serious pro and super, super nice. We enjoyed everything about it. Long live, Stickyz!

I've been here before, but it's been a long time. I've meant to come back, but parking in the River Market is terrible. You've basically got to walk a mile if you're not there early enough to get a good spot. Parking is so rough that I've left home to take my family to Stickyz and ended up choosing a different spot in frustration, but I digress... I usually order the Original Fingerz. My favorite thing about this spot is that they've got all these sauces they make in-house (I can only assume...), and they're way different than anything you can get over the counter. On this particular visit, I think my fingerz were overdone; they tasted a bit burned and overly salty. On another sour note, I was here on a Sunday during lunchtime, and someone had propped the rear door open. You know, to let in some air. Apparently there's a dumpster somewhere near too, and it let that sour dumpster smell as well. NOT appetizing. My 4 yr old daughter was in love with the decor. I could scarcely keep her in her seat! Though this visit was a bit of a strike, I'll probably come back within the next year.

Stickyz is... Well, it's got character! It's a bit of an odd duck, it's part music venue, park restaurant, part dive bar, and part impromptu art studio. It's fun, and it's definitely an experience. They do have a pretty nice, spacious patio for sitting outdoors, and even the indoor bar tables are mostly by windows so you can check out the downtown through them. The restaurant space is open and fairly spacious, it's usually fairly busy and noisy, but never crowded. Prices aren't bad, the food has been 50/50 1 star and 5 star - the chicken fingers (their specialty!) are excellent, I thought, especially with the amazing variety of sauces you can get with them. Plus, they come in a *giant* basket. The Vegetable quesadilla we had once was about the size of a hub cap, and very good! By contrast, the "nachos" we had at the same meal were chips with some dry ingredients dropped on them. As in, dry shredded cheese half-heartedly shaken over cold chips. The kind of thing that's so vastly different than what it should be that you wonder if someone is messing with you. The table service is... About like the food. Sometimes it's pretty great, other times it's absolutely atrocious (half hour wait for a menu, etc.) the bar is always quick, and the bartenders in the music venue have always been great with me. Their menu, both for food and drinks, is full of all kinds of crazy things, enough that I've been back more than a few times just to try something new. It's not all great, but once in a while it really is! Because of the inconsistency, I can't go higher than three stars. But, all of my experiences here have been positive and fun, so it also doesn't get below three stars. I would definitely say try it at least once, but with an open mind, a chunk of free time, and make of it what you will.
(3)Arko B.
Just a stone's throw from River Market, this is really a wonderful place. The food is good, not excellent. But the music and karaoke is excellent. We were lucky to listen to 3-4 singers who were absolutely wonderful and it was a pleasure to spend our evening there.
(5)Debbie V.
Traveling in the city and wanted a quick bit to eat, Stickyz was right next door to the hotel I was staying at so I made a stop. Quirky decor and Tuesday is Karaoke night on the patio! If you're with friends/coworkers, probably do not recommend sitting outside unless you will be partaking, the music is pretty loud. I ordered their speciality which was the Original Stickyz Fingers with the creamy cilantro and sweet mustard. The food was okay, basically what I would expect from a bar place. Service was great, server was very attentive to our table. I would stop back if I wanted chicken fingers and a beer. Recommend if you're just looking to relax and enjoy a beer.
(3)Kristen A.
For a double holiday (Valentine's and Mardi Gras), they were majorly understaffed. 2 servers for the entire place!!! We waited 30 minutes to even get greeted at our table (which we cleaned ourselves). The nachos were underwhelming. Stick to wings. However, for a pretty day, the outdoor seating was worth it.
(3)Dianna S.
My husband and I went here last weekend to meet up with friends. We did not eat any of the food, and I did not have any of their drinks. We went to listen to the music and socialize a bit. First of all, this place is really a lot bigger than I expected. There's an outside patio area, a front room that is away from the music, and then the back part with the bar and stage. The decor is sort of funky, eclectic, a little bit odd, kind of gypsy. Sort of neat just to look around. Nothing matches, nothing makes sense. But we all had a fun time. My husband did have a few beers with grapefruit vodka which were pretty tasty as far as something like that would go. Never had any issues with service or anything, but then again, we didn't order food. Music was good. It was pretty packed after 10pm. I'd go back again if the opportunity comes my way. Maybe even have some food - apparently they are famous for their chicken fingers. Possibly self-proclaimed famous, but still.
(3)Tanielle J.
The food was passable. Went for lunch. Maybe the drinks and cool atmosphere make up for the bad food most of the time, but we had neither. If you must visit, get the plain chicken fingers or the ones with voodoo sauce, but honestly there's better food downtown. I'd also like to add that our waitress was clearly bored with her job.
(1)Devon W.
Quirky atmosphere but terrible food! Everything sounded great on the menu but had zero flavor or tasted mass made. Drink menu seemed better than food menu so maybe just a place to meet for drinks.
(1)meli f.
A dive bar with ok food! Got their chicken finger speciality but it wasn't anything special. Like the option of sauces and bartenders are generous when it comes to alcohol!
(3)William L.
Been here twice... Must be because I'm a male I get no service... Never come here... Crappy staff
(1)J R.
Have been in twice, once for lunch-had a salad that was quote good. Recently was back with out of town family and we went with appetizers. The artichoke fondue is quite good as are the chicken fingers. (Great sauce selection). We also enjoyed the the chicken nachos. My niece and nephew were happy, so I was happy.
(3)Terri C.
Food is absolutely delicious!!! We stopped here on the way to Tulsa, OK. We had chicken fingers, onion rings, and the pizza was to die for! The decor and atomsphere are incredible! Live entertainment was Fire & Brimstone - awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about this place and the show!!! Please stop in, we loved it. From the Flying Eagles MC, Baltimore, MD
(5)Lara L.
Average. Everything was overcooked and took 40 minutes for lunch to be served. Probably a better bar...
(3)Jeff H.
Good beer and good food. Out of towner from Houston in town for the week and it was nice to find a place with live music and great atmosphere.
(4)Katherine W.
The last two times I have been here, they have been so weird about the seating! They don't have enough seating to be so particular about it. The food was not great. Neither was the service. Our app-chicken nachos-was brought out with plates and no silverware. I ordered the blue Hawaii Sammie. I could not find even a sliver of pineapple. The girls had the sticky fingerz sandwich. It had no type of mayo or sauce or anything. And with the bread they use you really need some moisture. Hubs got the SuperBad, which he ordered without lettuce. So of course it came out WITH tons of lettuce. None of the food was impressive and the wait for some sandwiches and a burger was far too long. Our waitress. Smh. Her "sorry your food is taking sooo long "was not sincere in the least. Not to mention that the was elbow deep in her hair every time she walked by. Let's also mention that when one is waiting so long for food, one has time to really take in her surroundings. Sure, it's a funky place. I'm cool with that. If you want paintings with actual feathers glued to them, go for it! But for the love of everything holy, please knock the dusty fur off of the feathers!! Gah. Overall I think sticky fingerz is so wrapped up in being hip and cool that they forgot to be good or even clean.

This chicken finger restaurant is located in the River Market District in Little Rock. It is full of bright colors, making you happy to be there. This was actually my second visit here. They have beer on tap, including local Little Rock beers. The restaurant is known for their chicken fingers. For their lunch special, you pay $7.99, which includes a soft drink. You can choose between fingers and fries, fingers and soup or pasta salad, or soup and house or pasta salad. The idea is to choose a style of fingers like BBQ, voodoo, teriyaki, etc. I went with voodoo for a hot flavor. Then you choose two dipping sauces. I went with blue cheese and creamy dill. The creamy dill is their equivalent to ranch. I also got fries for a side. The flavor of the chicken and the sauces was great. They were spicy, but not too spicy. My friend got a different type but with the same sauces. Instead of fries, he chose the soup of chicken and sausage gumbo. Besides chicken, they have salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. They have something for everyone. This place is good, especially for a quick inexpensive meal.
(4)Penny N.
Big fan of Sticky's! Had their blue Hawaiian sandwich and it was awesome! I really like their chicken fingers and you can always pick great sauces. Cool environment and great place to hang out on the patio.
(5)Rodney A.
Really awesome atmosphere here. The hamburgers are drinks were really good.
(4)Bobby M.
Sticky's serves only the Stickiest of Fingerz at this Chicken Shack. (Not really, Haha!) The Original Fingerz are my favorite and I eat them with a wide array of dipping sauces as Squishy S. mentioned. My favorite out of all the sauces you ask? Is my go to trio of Dill, Cilantro, and the Spicy Ketchup... It's oh so good! When it comes to the food I've had only good experiences, but I've also only had the Fingerz . On that note... I've always been impressed with their deliciousness. I also have not had any form of sub-par service when I've been at Sticky's. This is always a bonus. The atmosphere is perfect for me, and hopefully for others. I've been searching since I've moved from Tucson for such a spot. (It's close, but not close enough to a little place called Plush.) Sticky's is chill on one side, and boisterous on the other. The live music is not intrusive when you're on the chill end of the bar eating, drinking, and being merry. Plus, after you've had your fill of mingling, and you and your crew want to liven things up. You can make that short venture to the stage and take in one of the many live bands that may be playing at this glorious locale. Sticky Fingerz is an awesome spot in downtown Little Rock. It holds its own and does so with its great live music and unique atmosphere. It's no "Orbiting Plate", and that my fellow Yelp'rs is quite alright by me.

The description of Funky doesn't really do this dump justice. The interior reminded me of a more slightly more bizzare version of a Hunter S Thompson nightmare. Picture in your mind: fortune teller swank meets fraternity house party room meets meth lab. Not only are the furnishings mismatched, they've apparently forgotten what a vacuum cleaner is. The accumulated dirt and debris set new levels of low for me. Nevertheless, even though some on yelp refer to this place as a dive bar, it's actually far, far worse because like the furniture which was clearly salvaged from the city dump - the food is garbage too. Frankly, I've had better chicken fingers at McDonalds. My fingers were overcooked and dry inside and sea shell hard outside. The honey mustard dipping sauce was devoid of both the aforementioned honey and mustard. The voodoo sauce tasted like it was made from a thousand squeeze packets of tomato catsup and tobacco sauce, mixed with water. I ate only half of my plate, and ran out the door. Don't waste your time on this place.
(1)Jordan W.
Best chicken my husband has ever had. And he eats a lot of chicken! He says to get the voodoo chicken with creole mustard dipping sauce. I'm a veggie and got the veggie sandwich. It was legit. The atmosphere was kick ass. Large plush sofas, dimly lit rooms, deep red walls, and funky artwork everywhere. Food wasn't pricey, either!
(5)Paul O.
Food is good really good actually. The service is horrible and when my old lady asked for honey mustard Togo with her sandwich the reply was yes but it's 29 cents. I mean come on now you really need 29 cents for some honey mustard lol. We sat for almost 45 mins waiting on a sandwich and chicken nachos.... I definitely Won't be back.
(1)Elizabeth L.
Pretty bad. I'd skip it and go to the Flying Saucer instead. We went to both places the same night ... here the chicken was dry and tasteless & the salads looked like taco toppings.
(1)Hannah P.
I love Stickyz and go several times a month. I would recommend the jalapeño ginger chicken strips with a creamy cilantro dipping sauce, the almost famous quesadillas or the Queso and Salsa. They have one of the best patios downtown. There is nothing like sitting in the sun, drinking a mother clucker while listening to some good tunes. I also love that the owners work hard to keep the music scene alive in Little Rock by bringing a wide variety of acts to thier stage. I've never had a disappointing experience at Stickyz.
(5)Jesse B.
Screw this place. Sat there for 20 min and never got service. Asked a waitress to help, she stared right at me then turned around and walked away and never showed up at our table. Waved for her to come by 5 min later, still nothing. Asked another waitress for help and she said, "kitchen is closed and kept walking." We wanted drinks you dumb idiot. Asked the bartender to see the manager, never saw one. Left after 30 min of no service. F*ck this place.
(1)Kaylie L.
One of our favorite places in Little Rock! The food is pretty good. I haven't yet found anything I can't live without, but if I dip it in the sirancha, it makes everything better! I would recommend the almost famous quesadilla, or the onion rings. I once brought a couch surfer from California who mostly ate veggetarian. She had the voodoo strip and said they were the best she had ever had! The patio is the perfect place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. A few nights a week during the warmer months they have a live reggae guy with steel drums. On Sunday afternoons they have a live blues band in the dining room. And of course on weekends and some week days there is always a great selection of bands! My friends and I have discovered some of now favorite musicians just by dropping in on the weekend. This venue has a very laid back, bohemian feel, and the staff and crowd that frequents stickyz is always friendly!
(5)JEREMY G.
Sticky fingaz is a great location in the riverwalk district of little rock. There's always good music playing, whether stereo, or live, the food is amazing (personal fave is the manilow) and the drinks are top notch. If you have a couple days to spend I suggest stopping by for sure.
(5)Amy A.
I was here on Valentine's day for my second time. The service was a little slow but our waiter was really polite. It wasn't very busy and it was a little slow to get him to come take an order for an appetizer & my drink to come out, but otherwise great! We had the Arkansas fries for an appetizer with a great taste. We all had various dishes for dinner which were awesome. I love the Dill sauce and the voo-doo sauce. Also, the Motherclucka drink was a hit!
(4)Ramon L.
Salty Fingerz..... I really wanted to like this place! Cool vibe, prime location and great service. It's downfall is what it's supposedly known for! The chicken tenders!! Cooked to a point just shy of burnt, the breading and SALT overwhelm the chicken. I had to have two beers and my tongue was still fried from the sodium. On the plus side...live music, good prices and great location. This place just needs a fresh menu. DON'T come for the food. Eat next door at the Flying Fish....then come here for a drink and music :) Enjoy fellow travelers!
(3)Kelly S.
Boom! What just happened in my mouth? Was it magic? Was it religion? It was a little bit of both... a magical concoction of wing sauce and ranch called "voodoo". All that was missing was a one eyed curandera and a bloody egg. So chicken fingers are what sticky fingerzzzz is known for. Their "chicken special" has fingers and fries so we obliged their unhealthy obsession (and ours) by ordering said special. The place is absolutely a delight visually. See the pics I posted... a big funky inside space with art made by the owner. All of which I want to either buy or replicate. Two areas -- one smoking and one non-smoking - and apparently, a ton of sweet shows that come in. They hand out free CDs with a list of the performances and damned if they didn't put together a great compilation of Blitzen Trapper, Felice Brothers, the Hold Steady, Bruce Robison, JTyler/NorLights, etc. So why the three stars? Those illustrious chicken strips took 50 minutes. Our waitress seemed super on top of it so it must be that in this particular case, there aren't too many cooks in the kitchen (unlike my familial Thanksgiving). Additionally, though there were only two versions of the special (6 or 4, biscuits or fries) we got the wrong number. While I feel like a big jerk for giving them three stars, chicken strips and fries shouldn't take that long or be that hard to remember. If I'm in "the rock" again, I'll go back for some voodoo and some tunes and hope that this time, I get the strips before the second act.
(3)Sara B.
They have a drink called the MotherClucker. It's like a delicious orange popsicle slushy, debatable how much alcohol is really in it, but it was so good, I was literally thinking about it the next day. (and not in that my head hurts kind of way) Maybe I don't get enough sugar, but I've been craving the sugary orange sweetness ever since. The waitress suggested I put a shot of whipped cream flavored vodka in it to make it taste like a creamsicle. It was a heavy poured shot for $5.50, and after I put it in I could definitely taste the alcohol. Yeowza. The food was just ok. I got chicken fingers that were fried within an inch of their lives. All the seasoning and dips seemed like they could be good, there was a lot of variety, it was probably just an off night. The other two people got a salad and a hoagie. They were both ok too. I almost forgot the beer drink special was awesome, especially for a random Monday night. The smoking on the patio was kind of annoying and don't be the person stuck sitting on the bench. The chairs are way lower and you'll feel like you are looking down on everyone high above on your perch.
(3)John S.
A little Dive Bar-esque. Good patio to grab a drink at on a nice day. Strong drinks, good margaritas, ok barfood. Pretty in and out if you're just wanting to grab a quick drink.
(3)Sabertooth C.
It was my first time at Little Rock and it was a mistake to randomly choose a place instead of yelping :(. The signature chicken fingers were dry and too salty for our taste and the voodoo sauce was just too sugary. We also ordered a sandwich wrap which turned out to be another mistake because I had to dig to see where the heck the chicken pieces were - it shouldn't be hard to find since there were only two. To add salt to the wound, the prices were on the high side, too :(. Service was the only thing it had going for it as our waitress was cheerful and nice but I will have to remind myself next time I'm in Little Rock to make sure to not return.
(2)Nick F.
Really solid chicken strips in a quirky atmosphere. Nice servers, good beer. Good location. Check it out.
(4)Lara S.
Just rolled in town for the night and all of the locals told me to eat here. The best thing to get (what they are known for) are their chicken tenders. What's exciting and different about these tenders are that they have a specific breading they are fried in depending on what you want - I recommend the voodo chicken tenders if you like a spicy kick. They also come with your choice of two dipping sauces...I got a creamy cilantro dip but there are so many to choose from! The chicken strips are big and have a lot of meat...you won't be disappointed! Great live music with the steel drum artist tonight!
(4)Amber L.
I somehow just realized that I have never written a review about Sticky Fingerz...for shame! Sticky Fingerz is awesome. First of all, they have a great location in the Rivermarket District. They have a very laid back, cool atmosphere with a really unique look. There is plenty of space with indoor and outdoor seating, along with a stage featuring live bands/musicians that play regularly. On top of that, the food is delicious! You can order numerous chicken finger flavors (I like the jalapeno/ginger, sticky parmesans, & lemony pepper flavors) along with a variety of sauces (the creamy dill & creamy cilantro are my top picks). They also have a variety of interesting sandwiches, burgers, salads, pizzas, and "flapjacks" if you aren't up for chicken fingers. Their flapjacks are crepe style sandwiches, which makes for an interesting and delicious combination. Overall, this isn't your standard chicken shack - it's better! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
(5)Trea Z.
Great atmosphere, decent food and good live music. Is the kinda place where you can get a quick bite to eat or just hang out awhile and relax in the sofas. The tables are as sticky as the food which was part of its charm! Decent beer selection also.
(5)Arturo S.
Unique restaurant and fun menu with plenty to choose from.
(4)Jeff H.
The decor/atmosphere was an eclectic, funky blues, wall of voodoo, got my mojo workin, tutti fruity gumbo. Kind of a homemade House of Blues. Loved it. The service was quick and responsive. Not much on the chatter, though. I had their specialty trademark chicken fingers and gumbo for lunch. 4 fingers and your choice of two sauces. Please try the Voodoo sauce and the Creamy Cilantro. Although the sauces were wonderful, the chicken fingerz were a little chewy. The gumbo was slap yo mama good! By the way, the restrooms are freezing in November! Although there were no live acts on stage, this place celebrates local music, (love live music), their slogan. A Grateful Dead tribute band (Touch), every Monday night for starters. I would love to revisit for the nightlife. They also have a bad ass lounge and a beer garden. All in all, a great experience. Thumbs up from me!
(4)Dale R.
I had the fingers since this is their specialty. Each piece was markedly different in appearance from crispy critter to unfried and uncooked. The fingers eventhough different looking all really had the same tasteless and chewy to really extra dry crunchy texture. Not at all anything to order again. The sandwiches actually looked pretty good, they were out of gumbo at 2pm. The sauces we had were more like plain wrap mustard or bottled poured in a cup sauce. The "vodoo" sauce was really nothing to write about except it was not special. The vodoo sauce poured over the strips was a buffalo sauce from a bottle which was about the best sauce we had if that says anything. The service was less than stellar and not very friendly. It took almost 25 minutes to get a refill of soda. Too bad this is a tourist area with such a mixture of good and bad places to eat. This is one that doesn't happen to be one of the good.
(2)Huzefa M.
Service is just TERRIBLE. July 4th, maybe they were understaffed, but the lady who served us was either was on drugs or had ADD bigtime. After repeating twice, the drink order was incorrect, and when we pointed it out, she made a face and said 'i will have to throw them'. Huh? Restaurant is nice, but employees lack the training and diligence. Negates the food out. Improve your sevice, folks!!
(1)Kevin M.
Average, but close to my hotel, so they get three stars. Nothing so great to Yelp about.
(3)Myra P.
After taking a stroll down the Rivermarket District, I decided to grab dinner at the chicken shack. They had a nice patio, loved the open air atmosphere of the restaurants along the main street, and this restaurant had a cozy feel as I glanced through the open air windows. The decor was cool as I went inside...electic. I sat at a table by the open air window, but wasnt sure if anyone was going to come by or not, so ended up moving to the bar. The bartender was okay--tried to be friendly here and there. She definitely wasn't as attentive as she should have been (especially since the bar wasn't full). Oh well, it wasn't the worst service ever. She actually made a very good cocktail.... I ordered a smoky chicken salad with chopped pickles and bbq sauce and a piece of "fried" cheesecake for dessert. Keep your 5 bucks and ditch the cheesecake. Sounds better than it looks or tastes...lol The salad was good. Just not worth a return visit...
(2)Squishy S.
Ate here tonight. Great chicken fingers! Get original and then get the dipping sauce. Good happy hour as well. We will be back.
(5)Michael H.
Went here in January and they must have forgotten to pay their heating bill because the place was freezing. All heating issues aside, this place has a coffee house feel to it. Lots of cheesy signs on the wall with random quotes from various musicians. Trying too hard. I had the house speciality, chicken fingers, which were delicious. Equally pleasing were the two dollar specialty ales. My tab barely registered.
(3)Jenny M.
O goodness, where do I even begin? I'm from out of town, so when i asked locals where the best place to a late night party in Little Rock was, they told me try this chicken shack. 0_O really? a place that sells chicken fingers is the best bar/party spot in this city? Since i love trying out new places, my friends and I gave this place a shot. It was Sunday night 9 pm when we walked in the door. Immediately we were charged with a $6 cover charge because some band was playing that night. Cool, not a big deal, something we don't normally see in Houston, TX because the bar pays for the band, not the customers. So we walk in, and there is probably 10 people max! Walked over to the bar, immediately we drop $100 buying 2 rounds of Crown shots @ $7 each. With the rest of the customers looking like they were sleeping and bored, we begin to "liven up the place". We buy more shots, we party a little more, the bands playing their musics, other bar patrons actually join in on our fun, and we're having a great time. UNTIL..... miss bar manager comes over and tells our group to "shut up because we're too loud and the band is playing".......... O_O --- that was seriously the face i gave to her because i was so shocked for a bartender to tell her customers to shut up, especially when we are AT A BAR! and we just bought so many shots, tipped her well, and not to mention there was only 10 people in the whole building. Customer service 101 lady, never tell your well paying customers to shut up! needless to say, if i ever venture back to Little Rock, this chicken fingers shack place will not get my business anymore! and the only reason I'm giving this place 1 star is because the decor inside was cool. And becuase they wont let you rate zero stars =/ and BTW - she never even apologized, after we apologized for being loud. Why should we have to apologize?? And miss bartender, if you are reading this - you need to apologize! and PS. learn to smile sometimes!

Let me start by saying this: the lemon pepper 'sticky fingerz' are really good. Fresh, well spiced, good portion. My group enjoyed them a lot. I guess my problem isn't with the food so much as the other factors. For example, when I asked for a drink menu, the server said that they didn't have one anymore. And it was an issue to change the TV to another game even though there was nobody in the vicinity of the TV. Finally, they just have one co-ed bathroom that opens into the restaurant. Iew. In general, it seems kind of poorly managed. Sticky Fingerz seems like a place that would have a drink menu with themed drinks. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the House of Blues with it's voodoo-y decor. So it's cute, but not very practical, in my opinion. I guess I could get those lemon pepper fingerz to go!

Two words: Barely palatable. If you feel the urge to stop in, RESIST!!! The service sucks and the food is even worse.

Sticky Fingerz has been the anchor of the River Market for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite places to walk to for fun lunch Fridays. Margarita Fingerz with VooDoo Sauce is the way to go. If you're lucky, you might catch a mid-week Kyoto Boom show, even.

This place as a hold on its followers I will say. Once again I was out with a friend on a lunch date and she suggested this place. I wasnt going to be the one who said no so I agreed. She then called me back and said that she forgot about me not being a fan of this place becuase of the service had fallen and the food was average. I informed her that I was fine with it. I arrived early and we were seated in the non smoking section. Within in two minutes, a waitress came to my table and asked what I wanted to drink. I went ahead and ordered a beer not knowing how long it would be until my friend arrived. The beer arrived super cold and she walked in right after and when the waitress saw she was here she came over and took our order. We each ordered the oriignal fingerz and decided to try four different sauces. voodoo, creamy dill, blue cheese and I forgot the last one. The food was a little crunchy and appeared to be over cooked but the flavor was delicious and the indise was a moist as it good get. After my first bite, I was a fan of these fingerz. WOW. I wasnt expecting that at all. To address a fellow Yelper's comment on it being cold inside, man I agree with you but, they pay thier bill because it was 90+ degrees outside and at least 40 inside. they must like it cold in there.. I bet you you sat in the band area. Those high ceilings help keep the concerts cool in the summer.. I am a fan of Sticky Fingerz now.

We came with high hopes for the Chicken fingers and Fried chicken platters. very disappointed. Chicken was dry and loaded with salt. Had to send back the chicken Soprano because it tasseled like an Oregano bottle exploded onto it. Sorry to give it such a bad review, but I honestly think McDonalds Southern style chicken sandwich is better.

Voodo fingers and fries are a great combo for lunch. Not too hot, but spicy enough to satisfy the hard core heaters. The ruben is also a great meal along with the pizzas. Friendly staff always checking on you. Only gripe is that not enough fries are served with the lunch specials. full bar with smoking, non-smoking, and outside seating. I frequent here for lunch.

Food was good I had the sticky fingerz "sticky fingerz" with the dill and voodoo sauce which is a Ranch and Buffalo sauce....The Chicken by itself I had original had awesome seasoning I didnt even need the sauce really but it simply added to it. The Beer selection was sub-par but the Diamond Bear is always a winner when I am up this way so it was still good.. The Service was top-notch, only reason it got such a high rating from me. Waitress was attentive but not over bearing, I always had a full glass of beer infront of me so all was good. On top of it all they have live bands almost every night! It definitely a place to visit when in town.

I have never been here for food, but I went to a show here last weekend (Boom Kinetic) and LOVED it! The band was great, but besides that, I loved being in a venue with multiple bars that could handle a big crowd. We liked that we could escape to the back bar when we wanted to get away from the music for a while. And, there's a huge back patio, and even though it was pretty chilly, it was nice to have that spillover space. We'll definitely be back!

decent food, just was not impressed with it overall -- but everyone in LR seems to love it... chicken is good...but it is just chicken fingers at the end of the day to me - maybe i had a bad experience, either way i am sure i will give em a second chance in the near future

Not bad. I had a friend take us here when we were in Little Rock. I wasn't crazy about the service, but the food was unique and was good. I would go back and probably suggest it to others if they were in the that particular area and looking for a place to eat.

I eat lunch here every time I go to Little Rock. I also come back at night some times to listen to the bands or sit on th patio and enjoy the weather and cold beer. This place is a chicken shack, don't expect anything more than that. It's not a chicken and waffles shack either (too bad) it is a chicken fingers anyway you like it shack. The decor is covered in original rock 'n roll artistry. It is what all independent eateries should strive for "a defined character for the eatery". You shouldn't visit or live in Little Rock without experiencing the Sticky's.

Very cold beer, excellent service. Quesadillas are a great starter. A/C is nice on a hot day.
