Restaurants in Hot Springs

“I tried this joint when I was in town visiting a dear friend! They blew me away with their Cuban espresso shot named Cafe BomBon! You won’t regret ordering their croissants with egg sunny side up :)”

“Very friendly place! Nice vibes, met the owner and he was a real great guy! He works as hard as his employees!”

“This is my go to spot after school. We love these cookies, very flavorful and fresh.

Parking: The parking is beside Old Navy

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly, and will explain the all different types of cookies they have”

“We absolutely love David’s in Hot Springs! My office ordered a huge to go order today and the staff went above and beyond to help my office ladies get our delicious lunch back to the office-labeled well and nothing spilled!! Thank you David’s for our awesome lunch experience!! 🫶🏼”

“My husband and I are in town for a few days and we're thrilled to see there was a Caribbean place in town. We stopped in for lunch and plan to come back this weekend before we head back home. I had the crack chicken, and my husband had the jerk shrimp, both of which were delicious. The menu was trimmed down that day, but the full menu gets served on the weekends, so we will definitely be back for some oxtail, brown stew chicken, etc. The family who runs this restaurant is so sweet and inviting. This will definitely be a regular stop for us now any time we travel through Hot Springs.”

“Food was delicious and VERY reasonable. Service was better than any place we have ever visited. If you are ever in the area, I highly recommend checking this place out.”

“One of THE BEST Greek Restaurants in Arkansas.

When you come to Hot Springs make this destination your planned stop. And hopefully on the day you visit the owner will have made his OWN Delicacy "BAKLAVA CHEESECAKE." Be sure and ask your lovely server if he has some made. IT Is an Undescribable Journey for your tastebuds I can assure you.”

“Great food and great service. We stop here every time we come to town!!”

“Very accommodating and delicious food.”

“We were in town for the weekend and had the opportunity to have dinner for the first time last night. We arrived at 4:45pm to a very full parking lot on a Saturday. Our instant thoughts were, it must be good; we were not disappointed. We were seated almost instantly. After given the a choice between the dining room or the bar area, we chose the dining room, which was spacious and open. The tables were amplly spaced to give patrons and wait staff room to maneuver. Enough about the decor, let's get to the food and service. Penny, our estute server, was prompt in collecting our beverage and appetizer choices. The fresh out of the oven house bread came out quickly to our delight. For our main courses we chose the bacon-wrapped filet and the hickory-smoked ribeye, which were both grilled to perfection and excellently seasoned. Our side dishes of asparagus, baked potatoe and grilled shrimp were also excellent. All of this food saddly left us with no room for the cheesecake dessert. Which we'll have to try the next time we are in the area. We we're also happy to have been approached by the owner to check on our experience, to which we lauded Penny's great service and the excellent food.”

“Visited Hot Springs a few weeks ago and wanted to find a sushi spot. We came across this place and really enjoyed it. Great food, good prices, and an eager to come back soon!”

“This place is so much fun that we went three times. Some of the robots are hilarious.”

“First we arrived at Fisherman’s Wharf, got in quite fast. Very friendly staff we sat and ate dinner with lalo around 6:30. Didn’t get serviced until 6:45, when he came to the table is was very unprofessional and uncomfortable. Overall he did a great job and we got our food quickly, but every time he would approach the table he would have an attitude. The catfish was great, and my husband enjoyed the grouper oscar. 4.3/5* overall”

“Top tier pizza! Thank you for allowing us to have pride there last year. Hopefully, we will see you again this year!”

“Loved 501 Prime! The hostess got us in and seated quickly, she was very friendly, upbeat and had a great personality! Emerald was our server and she was exceptional! Emerald was very knowledgeable about everything 501 Prime, very attentive, friendly and engaged! Actually, not a single employee walked by our table that didn’t stop and engaged in a conversation. Everything we ordered was perfection. Just excellent service and food all the way around. Great experience, we’ll be back!”

“If you like mushrooms and avocados the veggie egg white omelette is very good. It comes with a side of fruit which waa very good as well.

We had one hiccup with an item that came with a meal and without even asking it was removed from our bill. Great management.

In addition, we had a lovely server and I wish I could remember their name.

Vegetarian options: Omelets can be made with onions, peppers, spinach, tomatoes, avocado...”

“First time and OMG it was amazing!! The staff was so nice and friendly. The food was phenomenal. I can't wait to come again. Highly recommend”

I'll be back next trip.”

“Great little coffee house. Coffee is perfect, service was amazing! the batista was the cutest, and so helpful. So happy we found this place!”

“I have done two wellness retreats this month and used Cafe 1217 for lunch both times. Ron was easy and friendly to work with and always professional. The food was perfect and on time. I will use them again.”

“Excellent food. The Wednesday night music was a bonus.”

“The staff are nice people who can recommend a drink every time. I wish I could get another punch card when I go cause it would give me more incentive to go to this coffee shop. I love the small shack right outside Malvern.”

“Wow! Freshness, authenticity, and quality. We ordered the Salmon Lovers platter and the Nigiri B* platter. Obviously the fish is the star of the show, but when a sushi restaurant puts extra effort into the sushi rice, you know they pay attention to detail. This was very high quality sushi. 10/10 it was made with love. Will be back.”

“Fantastic dining experience! Dom and JoLee always give top notch service and are super helpful. Quality food + amazing service= you just can’t beat it!”

“Brunch stop this morning in Hot Springs at our 1st ever breakfast food truck Will's Cinnamon Shop !

Perfectly proportioned between crust and toppings. I could taste every single item on my pizza! I got the Meat Head. Hubby got a Hot Honey Pepperoni 🍕 and 💥 bam it hits the mark! Absolutely amazing food. Delicious cocktails and it’s a place you wanna hang out in. Thanks y’all 🤩 Tony, Karen, Finn and Rail 🐾🐾”

“I’m so glad we brought our dog on this trip because we came across so many amazing restaurants just by googling “dog friendly restaurants”. This was hands down the best place we ate at as far as food quality and service goes. Everything we tried was AMAZING! You can tell the eggs are sourced from grass fed operations by the rich orange color of the yolks. Two things you HAVE to try if you come here are the Crème Brûlée French Toast and the smoked duck bacon, but everything we tried was seriously so good. My fiancé and I split the shrimp and grits and the best breakfast platter with spicy bloody Marys and the mimosa flight to drink. The blood orange and the prickly pear were our favorite mimosas. This is a must visit when you’re in Hot Springs. We will DEFINITELY be coming back. Shout out to our server Addy for the amazing service and being so accommodating with our dog. We also thought it was really cool of the owner/manager to let the hostess bring her baby to work. I cannot recommend this place enough. Also, really affordable considering the quality of food you get.”

“best place ever! amazing service love the girls working in there”

“Extremely good, fast served food, great passion colada”

“I had been CRAVING strawberry shortcake. For a while I couldn’t find anywhere to get one in town. I finally saw one on Sugar and Spice’s website and had to get it. Let me tell you- it was AMAZING!

Our waitress was amazing! The owner was super friendly! Honestly it's very rare to go out and have good food and service at the same time.”

“This is not just soul food. This is good old fashioned comfort food and prepared and served with a smile in a small town setting. Servings are plentiful and so very tasty. I live 2 to 3 minutes from its front door and will frequent it often Food, Service and Pricing are all 5 Star in this mans opinion. Try it folks you will not be unhappy that you did so.”

“If you're craving a juicy, flavorful burger, you HAVE to check out Frosty Treat! I stopped in for a quick bite and was blown away by their burger—it was absolutely perfect. The patty was cooked to perfection, with that delicious char-grilled flavor you can’t beat. The toppings were fresh, they omitted the bun as requested. The service was quick and friendly, and the prices are super reasonable for the quality you’re getting. It’s a great spot whether you’re dining outside or grabbing food to go. Hands down, the best burger I’ve had in ages. I’ll definitely be back soon to try more from their menu!”

“That was the absolute best Black Bean Burger I've ever had! it was absolutely amazing!”

“Food came out very quickly and came out hot, the tacos were so good and exactly what me and my grandmother were looking for in a taco. They also bring your food and drinks out to you, which is very nice. So i highly recommend!”

“Chicken tenders are soooo good and fresh. Love this place but they need to work on the outside. If you didn't know better you would think they were out of business. Weeds all around. When I recommend this place they always say "didn't that place close". Fix up the outside and make it appealable.”

“We went on a Saturday afternoon,the staff was very friendly told us about the “campfire meals upon walking to host stand. Our server “Olivia” was soo welcoming to my family of 3. She complimented my shirt I was wearing. I said thanks and I told her I had a medical emergency and was trying to get used to my hair not being pulled up as I couldn’t use my left arm. So I was a bit distracted trying to be okay with the new changes to myself. She offered to put my hair up if I had a rubber band to get it out of my face. I almost cried! She also told me she would keep me in her prayers. She really made me feel like family versus just a customer coming in. She is a beautiful gem in this world and we need lots more people out there like her. Let’s not forget the food it was soo yummy! I had the shrimp/sausage campfire meal it was seasoned perfectly except the potatoes tasted off but that could’ve been my taste buds. Our daughter had a strawberry pancake and sausage and bacon. Good size portion she had to bring some home. My husband had chicken fried chicken with 3 sides. I tasted a bite of his chicken it was soo good with that cream gravy. I didn’t get pictures but again it was such a wonderful overall experience! We will be returning soon!!”

Will definitely have to comeby again next time we're in town.”
