It does look dingy and outdated, but clean so I came in with an open mind. After all this is a smaller town. I'm really glad we went because the food was really good. The complimentary fresh bread and butter they give was truly one of a kind. The sirloin was flavorful, the mashed potatoes were buttery and soft, the Mac and cheese in my opinion was meh but my mom really liked it. We got a piece of turtle cheesecake to go and let me tell ya, soooo good. I do think maybe it's slightly overhyped, but overall was a good experience. I'd go back.

You have to order at the counter and the girl was very friendly. We both had chicken tenders, which were actually nugget in size. I got french fries with my order and my husband opted for fried okra. Food was ok but both of us had upset stomachs later in the evening. It was also pretty dirty in the resturant. So many other options in Hot Springs, I suggest you pick one of those places instead of here.

The menu lights up as you open it and everything on it sounded delicious. The servers, Peter and Emily, were so fun and helpful! They brought out these heavenly yeast rolls basted in truffle butter...what??? I got the market fish special which was grouper, and my husband got the grilled pork chop. Come with an empty stomach if you get the pork chop. It is a very generous portion and is delicious! The grouper was perfection...crispy on the outside, light and flakey inside, sitting atop beautiful spring vegetables and a lovely light beurre blanc sauce. It was topped with edible flowers and micro greens. I regret that I did not take a photo (we were so hungry), but it was just divine. The chef came over to ask what we thought and we told him everything was amazing. The staff were absolutely lovely. We can't say enough good things. This is what a restaurant experience on vacation should be like. What a gem! Hopefully next time we visit we can try the dessert menu! We won't even get into how they make bread pudding out of those delicious rolls...

I wish I could give this restaurant more stars. Hands down the best dining experience I've had so…read morefar in my life. We happened to stumble upon this gem randomly during our trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas not expecting much but wow were we absolutely blown away. First, you walk into a dimly lit, intimate dining area and seated at a table with very comfy chairs and menus that light up for visibility. Next, your waiter is SO knowledgeable about every item on the menu. I had history lessons about the rice production in the area while learning about which dishes to choose. While waiting for your food, you are served an edgy orange-glazed dinner roll that is simultaneously intriguing and comfortingly familiar. A delicious twist on a classic. The head chef also came around serving an amuse-bouche of another experimental apple dish which was an explosion of flavor in my mouth. Food comes- oh my goodness I cannot explain how amazing the Chislic beef tips were. Every component of this dish was just so thoughtfully crafted and well-blended. Each bite was bursting with flavor and energy. My partner also loved the potato soup. Our mains were equally impressive- my fennel rice in particular knocked my socks off. I have never tasted rice so decadent and aromatic in my life. The salmon was of course great but certainly not the star of the show. Finally, the bread pudding at the end was the cherry on top of the culinary bliss we had just experienced. I would drive 10 hours back to Hot Springs just for this restaurant. So sad it has to be so far. Do not miss your opportunity to come here if you happen to be in town!!

Ended up ordering the fish and shrimp combo with fried okra. The catfish was delicious. Good cornmeal light breading with fresh catfish that didn't have any fishiness to it. The shrimp was fried well as well and fresh tasting as well (great amount of breading). Both also weren't oily at all which told us the oil wasn't old. The hush puppies were good as well (also fried well). The side of fried okra was really good in my opinion, none of the sliminess that sometimes comes from okra that isn't cooked well. All in all I would totally recommend this place in the area if you're wanting to try some southern food.

They managed to make this filet so juicy that we wonders if it had been broiled instead of grilled. Either way, it was great. Also had truffle fries and the grilled oysters. The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and just a tad soft on the inside. The way you want them. And the oysters were incredibly flavorful. We splurged with the caviar service the second night. Excellent decision. I hope those who live in the Hot Springs area appreciate what a great restaurant they have.
