As kids, we believed there was a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow. And after searching for many years, I gave up on that fantasy. But what I do know is that when we see a rainbow, we can always expect something hopeful, don’t you agree? So, even though I haven’t found my gold, I did stumble upon a hidden gem at the end of a rainbow. PJ’s Rainbow Cafe in Mountain View might not have any precious gold, but what you'll find is the biggest chicken fried steak in Arkansas, and that’s a treasure on its own. The chicken fried steak is so big that it could feed your entire family, and you’ll want to try it for yourself. Come hungry and let’s feast on one of the biggest as well as most delicious meals that you’ll have in Arkansas.

If you find yourself in the town square of Mountain View, search for the rainbow and you’ll instantly strike gold.

PJ’s Rainbow Cafe has been a local favorite serving downhome, country-style deliciousness for almost 90 years.

Inside you’ll find exactly what you expect from a small-town mom and pop diner: no frills, walls adorned with old pictures and memorabilia, which gives it so much charm.

The comfy dining room will remind you of grandma’s house. And of course, the mouthwatering food is served with a side of southern hospitality. By the way, bring cash or a check, no cards are accepted.

As far as the menu goes, you can find hearty breakfast items that are served all day long. So, if breakfast is your thing, then this is the place for you.

In addition, the restaurant dishes up comfort food as well as daily specials that include goulash, meatloaf, fried catfish, liver and onions, chicken fried chicken, and so much more.

But what makes this restaurant so special are the massive chicken fried steaks. They're so big they could feed your entire family.

When I said the chicken fried steak was massive, I wasn’t joking. It’s almost as big as the entire state of Arkansas.

Ok, perhaps that’s an exaggeration, but you definitely get your money’s worth. And if you leave hungry, you did something wrong.

Each plate is served with 2 sides as well as your choice of bread. I recommend getting the real, homemade mashed potatoes, they’re one of the restaurant's specialties.

After you’ve feasted, be sure to save a little bit of room for dessert. Reba’s homemade pies are the talk of the town, so you won’t be disappointed.

And yes, the pie slices are just as big as the other menu portions. Did you expect anything less?
