Restaurants near Crater of Diamonds State Park

This was probably one of the best meals start to finish I’ve ever had. Our service was spot on, ask for Scott if you are there on the weekend. On of the best restaurant experiences ever. I would highly recommend.

We had an excellent experience at J & S Italian Villa! Food was delicious, drinks were great, eggplant appetizer was beyond delicious! Upon ordering, we asked our waiter, Joe, for explanations of a few items and he was spot on with his descriptions! We will go back again and again if this is the standard of this restaurant! Pistachio encrusted salmon with veggies was more than ample size and tasted great. The seafood pasta, a bit spicy was also ample and tasty! All and all, we were so pleased by our overall experience!

We had a great dinner here on our recent visit to Hot Springs. The Oysters were amazing! My husband and kiddo enjoyed a fabulous steak with Boursin and I had one of the best kingfish dishes! You will not be disappointed! My kiddo refused to share the bread and butter…. It was that good! Our waitress Thania was attentive and genuine and provided great service! Don’t miss this spot if you want a great dinner! We did walk upstairs through the Bourbon bar and it was a much different vibe that downstairs… for the price point, I felt downstairs was more fitting for dinner unless you go for just a cocktail! Enjoy!

Impeccable! My wife and I have dined here on New Year’s Day (our anniversary) for the past 3 years. Always a wonderful experience.

This was a special Christmas buffet at the historic Arlington hotel in Hot Springs, AR. It was very nice with a live pianist playing Christmas songs. There was a wide variety of salad items, main course items and dessert choices. There's also two carving stations and a smoked salmon station. The hotel was beautifully decorated. They had a giant ginger house and Christmas tree. We'll worth the $60 per person.
