“Delicious! We were staying at the Arlington Hotel and noticed they sign in the lobby for Mamoo’s. We all got the regular size. The White Gold is the perfect ice cream. Will definitely recommend Mamoo’s Creamery, especially during this summer heat.”

“I live in Texas and out here for work was looking for some coffee spots near me and found this place on google saw it had a high rating. So I stop in to say what it was all about and was suggested by the owner that that there iced latte was homemade and was real popular after one slip then I could see why and definitely will be back and recommend it to other and also posted y’all on my TikTok story”

“Awesome small business supporting other small businesses! Bonus - excellent coffee!”

“Smells like a 200 yr old church on all upper level floors. Smell is so strong everything we brought home from one night short stay stinks. Parking was total BS. Said they were full for valet and told us to park a block away on upper level parking garage which was creepy scary at night. The walk to and from and of the garage, and still charged us $20 for parking. Easy check in and out, bed was comfy, room was nostalgic and cool, decor in hallways on each floor is soo outdated forest green and stinky smelly. All they need to do, to revamp this place, is get rid of wallpaper on all floors, drinch everything in antique white paint all walls trim and doors, rip up old carpet put down new, paint and new carpet will help eliminate smell. And remove wallpaper behind where band plays in lobby and paint white. also we went there to watch our brother n law play in band. turn down lighting in lobby during band playing and get some lights to shine on band!! dim those chandeliers!! we didnt stay because the vibe sucked!! felt like a nursing home vibe. stayed on Saturday 12/20/25 mid 40s cple. finally saw Arlington for the first time and stay. im born and raised arkansan.”

“Ice cream was delish and such a fun treat! My three kiddos loved it!!! Workers were the sweetest also!!! 🫶🏽🩷🍦”

“Whatever you order will be better if Cody is your waitress. Best service I've ever had. Most amazing person.”

“This staff and food are top notched and very authentic. Ive had 7 plus items off their menu and each were so good and pleasing. For quite some time i have driven by this place and never stopped. I assure you it was my loss. Take a trip and spend at least one meal with them. You will not be disappointed!!!!!! 10 stars ⭐️ from my family for them.”

“Stopped by the Starbucks in Hot Springs, AR, and overall had a good experience. I got an iced coffee, and it was great — smooth, cold, and made just right. The place was clean, comfortable, and had a nice, relaxed vibe. Definitely a good spot to hang out for a bit.

One weird thing happened, though. A homeless man who had been sitting in the lobby before and after the incident came up and grabbed my coffee right from the counter. The barista handled it really well — they were quick, professional, and immediately remade my drink without any hassle. I appreciated how calmly they dealt with it.

That said, I do think the store should be a little stricter about asking people to leave if they’re causing problems. It would make things more comfortable for customers.

Other than that, everything was solid. The service was friendly, the drink was great, and I’d definitely come back. Hopefully next time it’s a little less eventful. I left the review at 5 stars because of how it was handled.”

“Consistently good. Waffle House always open for those late nights!!”

“We visited about three years ago for a baseball tournament and absolutely fell in love with both the food and the atmosphere. Since we don’t live nearby, we don’t get to visit often, but we decided to make the trip for Glow on the Row and checked our kids out of school early just so we could enjoy dinner here again around 3:15. The hostess, dressed as the Bumblebee Beanie Baby, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. She truly set the right tone. Unfortunately, our experience with our server was the complete opposite. She was inattentive, never smiled, and didn’t check on us once. When I mentioned how disappointing our pizza was, her only response was “okay.” We had to repeatedly go to the bar ourselves to grab napkins, and no one ever offered drink refills or asked if we needed anything. The restaurant wasn’t busy, only about five tables were seated so there was really no excuse for the lack of service. To make matters worse, the pizza was terrible. We ordered a half-cheese and half-Sarah Meadows, but the entire pizza came out as plain cheese; so overcooked and dry that we couldn’t even cut through it with a knife. There was no sauce at all, and the dough was tough and flavorless. Sadly, this visit was nothing like the wonderful experience we remembered. The quality and service have gone downhill, and it’s not the same place we fell in love with a few years ago.”

“The food was excellent and the beer was awesome!!! There beer is made ftom the natural spring at their facility. Bethany gave us the best attention and provided great recommendations! You must try this place when you are in town!”

“Dee is an absolute dream for customer service! He is not only friendly and helpful, he seems to really enjoy what he’s doing and I was there at 8:40 at night at the end of his shift. Thank you for hiring a true gem!”
