Filet Mignon at Cheers<\/p><\/div>\n

I have already written about Cheer\u2019s in Maumelle for lunch a couple of times and have had good results.\u00a0 Regardless of a previously bad attempt at dinner,\u00a0my wife and I gave it another try a couple of weekends ago and had a great time.<\/p>\n

The restaurant in Maumelle is expanding by closing in the outdoor area and moving the bar.\u00a0 The new area looks to be almost twice as big which should be welcome news to those who\u00a0like to sit indoors where it is cool or warm depending on the time of year.<\/p>\n

We started with the friend oysters which were a bit heavy on the batter, but had a really good flavor to them.\u00a0 They used a decent amount of spice and the dipping sauce paired perfectly.\u00a0 Overall they were good and something I may order again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>My wife ordered the Rib-eye with a Red Wine Reduction Sauce and I ordered the Filet Mignon with a Blue Cheese Sauce.\u00a0 You are also given the choice of sides and I opted for a bowl of their chicken and dumplings instead of french fries.<\/p>\n

The waiter did a great job of offering different items and even recommended against the fries.\u00a0 I couldn\u2019t agree more as I don\u2019t see ordering a filet Mignon with french fries!<\/p>\n

As it turns out, the waiters recommendation of another side was spot on.\u00a0 My chicken and dumplings tasted great with plenty of flavor and smooth and creamy dumplings.\u00a0 The spice level was high, which is what I like, and I had no complaints.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Our steaks arrived next and looked wonderful.\u00a0 My filet had a layer of spice seared on the top and was bursting with flavor.\u00a0 It was over-cooked a little (I asked for Medium Rare but received Medium) but it did not impact the flavor.<\/p>\n

I was extremely pleased with the filet and the blue cheese sauce was perfect.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know what they put in the sauce but I\u2019ve been craving it ever since I had it.\u00a0 I can\u2019t wait to go back and have the filet and blue cheese again.<\/p>\n

My wife\u2019s rib-eye looked quite good as well but I was too full to try it.\u00a0 She says it was great and I\u2019ll take her word for it.\u00a0 If you are out for dinner, give Cheer\u2019s in Maumelle a try.\u00a0 They are on the expensive side of things but worth it.<\/p>\n
