The players

Wing It Forward

This is a new restaurant entity that has recently opened for business in Little Rock.

Whole Hog

This is an established local restaurant located next to the new business that shares a liquor license and a physical connection.

The details

The restaurant is connected to the neighboring Whole Hog establishment by a garage-style door, though kitchen operations remain entirely separate between the two businesses. A single mixed-drink liquor license covers both venues.

October 1, 2026: The restaurant began operating quietly.
October 8, 2026: The restaurant held a soft-opening for the public.

Market Landscape

The opening follows the broader national pattern of replacing vacated big-box retail storefronts with hospitality and restaurant venues. This expansion increases the dining density within the Riverdale Center footprint.

Customers can now visit the new restaurant daily between 11 a.m. and 10 p.m. for service. The shared access point with the neighboring business allows for convenient movement between the two restaurant spaces.

The takeaway

The soft-opening period is expected to continue for approximately two weeks. Residents should anticipate potentially evolving service adjustments as the staff transitions into regular operations.
