“Everything I’ve eaten there has been absolutely incredible! The service is quick and the genuine kindness shown by the owners is Superb! It’s 10/10!“

“Ate here today with my mom. We'd heard nothing but great things about this place and were not disappointed by the experience. The first thing we noticed was the laid back atmosphere. There were also a bunch of massive portraits hanging all over the place but it was chill. The menu isn't huge, which is nice as it was easy to pick what we wanted. Also the portraits were all of very beautiful women. I wondered if maybe they were all servers there or something. We ordered the Benny Briggs pie and added oyster mushrooms and anchovies. While ordering, I couldn't help but let my curiosity get the better of me and I asked about the portraits. I had a theory that they might have all been the owner's girlfriends. They were all 20-something blonde bombshells, every one of them, but there was one particular portrait that featured the owner with his arms draped around two of the women. The server was so nice! She took the question in stride and while saying that she gets that question a lot, she all but confirmed my suspicions. They were all "friends of the owner." We also ordered the pomodoro with tagliatelle as an appetizer. It was way too much food but so good! The pizza was genuinely delicious. Even with all the add-ons, it wasn't too heavy or bogged down and the flavor was perfect. All we could talk about was the portraits. They all looked so alike. He clearly had a type. There was one exception, however, with a portrait of a woman maybe in her 50's. We surmised this must have been his wife. The pasta was also to die for. A very light but very flavorful sauce. And the house made bread that came with it was simply fantastic. On one small part of the wall was a slew of awards and commendations from newspapers and magazines praising their pizza and burgers. We'd heard about their high quality food, but somehow nobody had mentioned the portraits. The rest of the walls were covered in this man's sexual conquests, real or imagined. And they ALL agreed to pose for portraits that then got hung up in his restaurant? There were SEVENTEEN of them! All in all, a positive experience. Food was a little pricy but great. I will 100% come back, if for nothing else than to let my friends bask in this surreal environment and dine in a midlife crisis trophy case shaped like a restaurant. The misogyny made my mom uncomfortable tho. 3 out of 5 stars.“

“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!“

“My new favorite Restaurant in Hot Springs! The meatballs are fantastic! Gyro I didn't get to eat because I was so full from the appetizers! But trust me, im going to eat it tonight after all the food settles. Can't stop thinking about the meatballs! They had Hoegaarden on draft which was fantastic. The staff was 10/10. 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.“

“Great place to enjoy a game of pool with plenty of tables to choose from. It is non smoking with a smoking area outside. They have pretty good pizza but I suggest ordering to naked chicken wings with a sauce of your choice on the side.Great staff, ask for Jade if you want an excellent server who will make sure your drinks are full and your table cleaned. Jade is always cheerful and gives service with a smile.“

“Nice restaurant at the horse racing track. We were here with a party of 5 on a Monday night. TVs everywhere and Monday night football was on so we he place was packed. They were very short handed in staff but our server did a great job.

We had the meatloaf, gorditas and salad and all were very good. Great portions and $4 draft beer.

Worth a stop if you are near by.“

“The Buffalo Chicken bites are the best thing Sonic has ever had other than sweet/unsweetened tea!“

“First time trying Five Star Burgers today. I ordered through Door Dash. Possibly the best burger I have ever had. It arrived and was so hot I had to let it cool down before I could eat it. I had the double cheeseburger, and everything I wanted was on there. The curly fries were delicious, but that cheeseburger was the star of the meal. It may have been my first time ordering it, but it definitely won't be my last.“

“Before I could even pay for my order, it was being delivered, and it was 100% correct. Great job. This was not just one experience here. We've been then 4 times in 2 months and it is consistently impressive. Best service from any Sonic we've eaten at from Nebraska to Tennessee.“

“Billie was our waitress Food was delicious Service excellent“

“The staff was very fast and kind. I ordered cheese sticks and 2 fried Oreos. Great to eat warm. only $1.00 each.“

“Sonics should all be the same it's why we stop. But, this SONIC was on another level entirely!! WOW! I don't know what they did but the cheddar peppers tasted like they hand rolled them fresh. The cheeseburger was fresh and bun was so perfect. This was an amazing visit to an already known chain, but this location is in a class of it's own. Great work team.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of different options“

“You can’t not go to Sonic, but you can critique an item or an experience if needed. I was looking forward to trying the bacon jam burger. The patty was so over cooked I could barely gnaw through it bite by bite. And don’t expect that beautiful thick layer of bacon jam you see on the commercial. What a disappointment.“

“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...“
