There are restaurants and then there are institutions. Restaurants that help define the very fabric of a location. We all have an internal list of restaurants that help people visiting from another place get a taste of our hometown. AQ Chicken is one of those places.

If you want down-home southern cooking and you are in the Northwest Arkansas area, then AQ is a must-see restaurant.

AQ is synonymous with delicious relaxation… why?… well try having a newborn, needing something (and wanting) delicious to eat and not feeling like you’ve got an ounce of energy left. That’s why we picked up the phone, placed an order and ate there 2 times a week until we finally just had to stop due to expanding waistlines. I’m not a big fan of going out to eat, but I certainly enjoy living down the street from AQ.
