We stopped here for snacks in the midst of a day-long drive back home. It was the best food decision we made our entire trip! I got the Alien burger and my husband got the Moon Burger - both were delicious. I highly recommend visiting! THE BEST and most wonderfully unique burgers we had our entire time in Arkansas. Also, try the fried Oreos!

Fun alien theme, with a touch of BigFoot. Not far from I-49, we got off the highway, and had a nice brief drive through the mountains to Neon Moon. We enjoyed our burgers, fries, and onion rings. Pleasant woman running the show. Food didn't take long to be ready. We sat at an outdoor table. One could sit inside the bus if one wished. Worth a visit.

Unbelievably unique and absolutely delicious. Perfect hand cut fries, never soggy from sitting waiting orders, always fresh and pipping hot. Definitely top 3 best burger places in Arkansas. I’m ‘bout to go there now for lunch and love my life.

I rarely can give a 5 star across the board, but this little spot warrants it. My wife and I were in our anniversary, and decided to stop at this place after seeing recommendation after recommendation for it in the guest book at where we stayed. My wife isn't a huge burger person, mainly because it's just a burger. But her words, "This is literally the best burger I've ever eaten." I'd have to come very close to agreeing. We both got the Alien burger. Cream cheese on a burger.... Why not! It was the PERFECT marriage with the jalapeno pepper jam. It was a roller coaster of flavor, spice, and sweetness... Perfectly balanced. If you're going through this area, you won't be disappointed making a quick stop here for lunch.

I saw this little spot while on a road trip. I got the moon burger and it really hit the spot. The moon sauce is so good! Service was friendly and fast and the outside seating was comfortable and shaded. The menu has some really good options. I didn’t take a picture cause I was so busy eating my burger

After hiking White Rock Mountain, my girlfriend and I stopped at Neon Moon in Mountainburg and were seriously impressed. I had the Reuben—perfectly grilled with tender corned beef—and she got the patty melt, which was just as tasty. The fresh-cut fries were crispy and clearly homemade. The vibe here is awesome—laid-back, quirky, and full of personality. It’s all outdoor seating, but they’ve got a retro school bus converted into a cozy dining space, which adds a super cool touch. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the menu had way more variety than you'd expect from a roadside stop. If you're in the area, this place is 100% worth pulling over for.

We had a basketball tournament at Mountainburg, so we decided to stop here for a quick bite. The burgers were good, the fries were really good with their seasoning. There's a lot of cool decoration, I dig aliens. The service was really good and fast. I recommend it if you're driving through here.

I wish I would have gotten a photo of the stuffed tray, but the food was so good we stuffed ourselves with it Everything from the sourdough buns to the dragon burger was excellent. Just pictures of the empty trays and homemade ranch - which was so good that my kid finished with his fingers Go! You won’t regret it.
