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

“Hawg's gluten free pizza is the best I have ever had. I can not tell it is gluten free. the crust is perfectly thin and crunchy. it is a must try.“

“The smoked meat was well seasoned and tasted great. I really enjoyed the brisket and my wife loves the chicken.“

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

“I have a thing that when I’m on vacation, I want to eat at a place that is special to that place. Purple Cow did not disappoint. Delicious food and AMAZING milk shakes. Friendly staff and speedy service was a huge plus too.“

“Great dog friendly outdoor seating and excellent beer selection. Great servers as well.

Issues are always understaffed with ridiculously long waits.

The food is not very good and expensive I try to eat before I go or snack downtown after.

Really sucks as the outdoor seating is easily 5star and dog friendly.“

“Huge servings, delicious and really friendly!“

“Unique national park with rich history, both natural and man made!“

“New Cocktail we created. Yummy !!!“

“The wait was not too long and was definitely worth it. The staff was friendly and we were able to find seating for all four of us. The burger was definitely one of the best I've had! My kids were able to find a very kid friendly meal. My brother got a chili dog and his girlfriend got the chicken salad and they said it was good also. Would definitely recommend!“

“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“

“Purdy handles the downstairs bar like a champ and is a gem of a human. Pizza was very good. Cool spot tucked in the mountainside.“

“The Country Club Panini with smoked turkey, black forest ham, bacon, sharp cheddar, Swiss, and their own honey mustard was wonderful as well as the pasta salad. Atmosphere was relaxed, even though every table was full. Kind and attentive staff.“

“It’s worth the price. It’s clear that the food is elevated. The coffee is superb. And the service is just so good. The atmosphere feels nice. And don’t get me started on the pastries…they’re decadent and too tempting to pass up.“

“Brittany is our girl! From the very first email to the day of our baby shower Brittany and the team at Crystal Ridge Distillery were always so kind, informative, and flexible. Our baby shower was beyond our expectations. We reserved the small party room which was more than enough space for our over 40 guests. There were so many options to add on as well. I can’t emphasize enough how happy we are about choosing The Party Room at Crystal Ridge Distillery. Any of our future events will definite held here! Thank you so much! We can’t thank y’all enough! ?“

“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.“

“So delicious! I love Golden Raised so much!“

“Absolutely love this place! Best bar in Hot Springs!! Not only did bartenders Ashley, Trey and Riven give us great service they also make you feel like family. Johnny in the kitchen makes one of the best deep dish pizza’s we’ve ever had. If you enjoy a chill atmosphere and dim lighting with great live music, Karoke, and exceptional food you’ve found the place!! Can’t wait to come back!“

“amazing food at it's finest“

“Bloody Mary was to die for! Great combinations of lunch for about $10!😋“

“We went Saturday night for my sister’s bachelorette party. It was a BLAST. We listened to Sensory 2 live band and sang and danced for hours. The hostess found us a table even though the place was packed. The drinks were good and cheap!. We ended the night downstairs which was definitely a younger crowd (we are in our mid 30-early 40s) but the DJ still played our millennial song requests and everyone danced and had a great time! Definitely recommend this place if you are in HS.“

“Ranchero was amazing!!!! Best in town! Dont get me started on the margarita (top shelf) EVEN BETTER! The service was astonishing! If I could give 10 stars; I WOULD!“

“kat #3 one of the best and helpful and friendly server there!! 100% recommend her for any families coming to Sam's Pizza pub!!“

“Ate Sunday lunch here yesterday. Meat head pizza “off the chain” good. Build your own awesome! Waiter been there i think 8 years. Outstanding. Wine glasses. Super cute. Loved it 💕“

“Very friendly owner. Great prices. Highly recommend“

“We came in for an early dinner today and were pleasantly surprised! Everything was absolutely awesome! The brisket melted in my mouth it was so good! We shared some desert after we finished dinner (it was a tough decision as we were so full…) and the Bananas Foster cake was brilliant! Thank you, for the wonderful food and spectacular service!“

“Absolutely the best breakfast in town! excellent service and food“

“Our waitress Carol was very attentive to us and her other customers. She provided updates on time to table for every food item. She was very down to earth, friendly, and an all around great waitress!!!! My family said the cheesecake was awesome!!!“

“This is a very nice sushi and buffet restaurant. I've never been there before and was there attending a baby shower for 2 special people in my life.
They have an awesome selection of food to choose from, including pizza and stuff for the kids... I also saw adults grabbing the pizza, so it must be good.
The staff was very friendly and professional.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible.“

“I love the beauty and cleanliness of the Arlington. The room was clean the ac kept us cool. Taking a shower with the thermal water from the hot springs felt amazing!! The staff was very helpful and attentive. They have a lovely pool and hot tub to enjoy! Bring your pet, bring your kids! We had a beautiful view from our room. The Arlington is right in the heart of Hot Springs, so there all kinds of things to see and do within walking distance. If you are looking to get away, or want to check out a great place this is it! You will not be disappointed!!“
