This is a very good Mexican Restaurant, the food is excellent, Thursday and Saturday they have $2 Margaritas, and other specials throughout the week. Prices are reasonable and so are the portions, not so much that you take half of it home with you and you won't leave hungry either!

This is a very popular local diner, they offer a wide variety of menu items and have daily specials, the portions will fill you up, they do serve wine and beer and this is a place we recommend for guests wanting to eat locally rather than going downtown.

Drinks & Nightlife
This is the oldest bar in Arkansas, it has bench out front on Central Ave with a statue of Al Capone sitting on it since he was one of it's notorious patrons "back in the day". Yes, we had gangsters in Hot Springs, and this is an OLD bar, featuring live music upstairs every night, and photos of the gangsters on the walls, they serve hamburgers and fries that are very good, the burgers have a bit of a zip to them, and be sure to get a selfie out front with Capone (everyone does). A great place to end your evening with a drink and some live music.

Parks & Nature
This State Park is 300 acres situated inside National Forest. In our opinion, Lake Ouachita is a National Treasure. It is consistently rated in the top 5 cleanest lakes in the country, offering Kayaking, boating, swimming and hiking. The most popular hike is a 4 mile loop that summits at a lookout, in the summertime the water is bath water warm and we go up there several times a week and swim for hours so be sure to bring your bathing suits and towels for the lake (if you are driving).
