Intimate setting, attentive service, tasteful and modern urban decor, but the food was the best part of it all. High compliments to the chef. High quality, fresh ingredients in everything. Everything we ate tasted amazing, portion sizes were perfect, left feeling fully satisfied but not stuffed. Will be returning for sure.

There is nothing I like more than a ribeye cooked to perfection however 52 Kilo missed the mark on this one. The Australian wagyu was brought out cold as if it were sitting under a fan while resting. The local ribeye was the highlight of the evening however the grade could be compared to a 15$ cut from harps. The crostini appetizer was extremely delicious - probably one of the only things we'd come back for.The restaurant itself gives a very cozy and romantic feel however the seating proximity to other guests takes from part of the romance.All in all, for the cost and quality, we don't plan on dining here again.

I felt compelled to write this review promptly after leaving. I visited tonight and I really hate to leave bad reviews but I am lost for words. The plus was our server was very nice and attentive but it was extremely downhill from there. I have eaten in many steakhouses throughout the US and had wine lockers in a few of them. I don’t say this to sound pretentious, and I am by no means a food connoisseur but only to say I don’t mind spending good money on good food. Even good money on decent food with a great atmosphere.The place was so small and quiet, it was our table and one other table that exited quickly. I decided to try the Japanese Wagyu which was $32/oz. I don’t have much experience w Wagyu specifically but as I mentioned I’ve eaten at some of the best steakhouses in the US. I know quality. I was told you could cut it with a fork and was like butter. The smallest they had was 3 oz. Ok so $100 for my steak. When in Rome so I went for it. I usually order med, was told to do med plus because of how soft the steak was. My steak was definitely overdone for the texture as I’ve read in some of these reviews. There were 3 parts of gristle that I could barely cut through with my steak knife. I left a chunk on my plate. And mind you this was a 3 oz steak half the size of the palm of your hand for an eye-watering price of $100+. I split an app which neither of us finished and two drinks. My bill alone was almost $200. A steak I ate about 3/4 of which regardless of the rating of wagyu or whatever I’d rate as subpar by any steak standard at any restaurant I’d be a paying customer at, half an app and 2 small drinks. I’m a very understanding person but I am baffled by this and cannot recommend the restaurant. I almost wonder if they gave me the wrong grade of steak. I recommend they revisit their steak options and how they are being prepared. With a price tag and wagyu behind this you’re going to get discerning clientel. I apologized to my friend and was embarrassed honestly for my pricey suggestion.

This is the BEST place to eat in Rogers! The food is amazing and the drinks are even better, you have to try the mezcal. The service is by far the best I’ve ever had. It’s a very calm small welcoming place. It is a complete experience from start to finish, 52 kilo is truly the hidden gem of NWA.
We were excited to try it out despite the reviews of overpriced cuisine that's ultimately decent, but not fantastic. The atmosphere was nice and the restaurant was not busy even though it was a Friday evening, but in our opinion, there are much better upscale dining options around Northwest Arkansas.

This was some of the best food I’ve had in my life. This place puts Ruth’s Chris and any other local steakhouse to shame. I had the Japanese wagyu filet and it was phenomenal. Great customer service and atmosphere too. Will definitely be coming back.

52 Kilo is definitely a hidden gem brunch place. We got seated immediately which is a rarity when it comes to brunch in NWA. Their food was absolutely amazing, the best in NWA if you ask me! The raspberry jam soufflé pancakes were the best pancakes I've ever had and breakfast tacos were great too. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. We always have a great experience at 52 Kilo.
Lovely local spot that is intimate and beautifully decorated. Incredible drink menu that come with a story. The food is exceptional. Pricey but worth it!

We went here for the first time to celebrate our anniversary. It was the worst, most expensive meal we have ever eaten. That is quite an accomplishment for this restaurant since we have been to many high end steak restaurants over the years.

Great food with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The food has been delicious every time I have went. Fried mushrooms are delicious. I preferred the Japanese wagyu over the Australian, but both are good. If you don’t like wagyu, the non wagyu steaks are good.The negative reviews are a bit surprising to me, most seem to come from people going to a wagyu steakhouse and being surprised it’s expensive. It will be expensive, as all wagyu is. Definitely worth a try if you’re in the area.

Atmosphere and service were decent. They were out of the first three sparkling wines/cocktails we requested. Steaks were poor cuts, were massively over cooked, and were weakly seasoned. Tack a $450 bill pre-tip on and it was a massively disappointing date night.

Everything was exceptional but for some minor items. The salad was excellent but it was a bit too salty for my taste. I felt like the Australian brevette was good but a bit overpriced. I think I actually enjoyed my partner's strip steak more, which was an EXCEPTIONAL strip, to be sure. The seasoning of the asparagus was too hot for my partner to completely enjoy, but I must say that it was delicious for me. We brought our own wine and the corking fee was $20. The wine glasses and decanter were top shelf.
