For our family, this was such a nice hidden gim in the town of Hot Springs! You walk in and…read moreimmediately you feel like you're teleported elsewhere... it feels like a artsy and offbeat hangout. The inside is uniquely decorated with features such as accordian lights and the original inudstrial ceiling of the building. There was a bit of a wait as the table was prepared. We were then quickly seated. To start off, we got the pepperoni chips. They're exactly what you'd imagine. Crispy pepperoni slices that are served with a side of marinara sauce. Now, don't get me wrong... they were definitely good. However, would I get them again? No. They were more salty than I would have liked. We mainly were looking for a non-carb starter. Looking back, we probably would have gotten the caprese plates. In terms of pies, we got a large half-n-half. For the first half, we got Hot Honey. Great mix of savory with the shredded pepperoni and then the sweet & spicy offered through the hot honey. Then for the other half, we got the Fungal Jungal. There were crimini, oyster, and portabella mushroooms... plenty of flavory as well as a good amount of roasted garlic. This was probably our favorite out of the two. Though both were still good overall! Aside from the food, everything was reasonably priced and service was top-notch! Definitely recommend!

The ambiance is great, availability of dietary options is also great…read more However, if you are a gluten free vegan, skip the vegan cheese. Just do toppings. I ordered a gf vegan pizza from the menu. The regular base price was I think around $22. When the bill came, I was FLOORED. I expected up charges, but it memory serves, it was $37 for my small little gf pizza. I was so disappointed. In no world would I pay (including tip) $45 for a tiny pizza. I enjoyed it, but wouldn't probably eat there again. Plenty of other more reasonable options for a gf plant based eater.

The hype is worth it! And if you get Vernon as your server even better!…read more We stopped by on Saturday night, but too hungry to survive the 2hr wait. The hostess was very helpful (I missed getting her name), but she advised reserving a dough for Sunday. If you don't know about Deluca's Pizza they only make so much fresh dough each day and when it's gone - it's gone. Additionally, if you know your pizzas this is Brooklyn Style. The dough is stretched thin and hand-tossed, creating air pockets contributing to its light and airy texture. This crust is cooked in coal or wood-fired ovens at high temperatures, resulting in a perfectly charred exterior and a chewy, flavorful bite. Knowing this is important when looking at the reviews. Back to our experience. We came back for lunch on Sunday and as she said it would be - there was a sizable line behind they opened and we all got seated. She also said that Sunday is a good time to come and I agree - not so crazy busy! With Vernon's agreement, we had half with The Renzi (red sauce) and the other Jamesy (white sauce) and added Prosciutto on the other half. I also had a Peach Bellini. My husband prefers red sauce and I prefer white so getting both in the same pizza is awesome. We liked both styles. What can I say about the staff? They hustle and are very friendly, but like I mentioned we enjoyed Vernon's attention and information of the menu and the area. On his recommendation we also drive out to Lake Ouachita which was a good drive. We also enjoyed our leftovers.

We went around 5ish on a Friday night and it wasn't busy. The servers were all very helpful and…read moresuper friendly. I think I may have just ordered the wrong thing, and it may just be my taste, but the crust definitely was char heavy. Otherwise it was good. The kind of pizza I ordered was the "Sidetown". It was just kind of bland and needed something. Maybe more sauce? The other thing of note were the headshots of random women on the wall. I asked one of the staff and she told us the owner tells them he's just friends with a lot of beautiful women and has the photos on the wall to prove it. To each their own.

Rocky's Corner - Good Food, Great Vibes, Even Better People…read more Right across from Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort, Rocky's Corner fills up fast, and it's easy to see why. It's got that simple, spacious diner feel. Family-friendly, a full bar, and the kind of place where just about anyone can settle in comfortably. The pizzas coming out of the kitchen looked seriously tempting. The kind that makes you second-guess your order. But we took the lighter route and shared the Rocky's Salad Supreme and a bowl of minestrone. Both were fresh, satisfying, and exactly what we needed after a long drive from St. Louis. I paired it with a strong Old Fashioned that hit just right. No complaints there. But the real standout wasn't the food. It was the service. Melissa S was an absolute gem. Managing multiple tables with ease, always smiling, answering questions with patience, and actually connecting with people. Not just taking orders, but making the experience feel human. She was especially kind and gentle with my husband, who has mobility challenges, and that kind of attentiveness doesn't go unnoticed. When you're on the road for weeks, those small moments of genuine care stay with you. Rocky's Corner delivers solid food and a welcoming space, but it's people like Melissa who make it memorable.

Emo Night!!!! Every emo anthem was played!…read more We picked this place as it was one of the only restaurants that were open at night. We had just arrived into town and were hungry. There weren't any vegan items so I did the best I could. I asked for a flatbread without cheese. We got drinks but they weren't really strong. Overall we loved having emo night and a meal to eat. They also had games in the back to play, which we got. It was a great night! We did try to go back the next day, but there was a cover, so we decided to go to another bar instead. This was a cool place to go and I highly recommend!

If you're anywhere near this area and don't stop at my favorite little dive bar, you're absolutely…read moremissing out on a top-tier life experience. This place is my must-visit--actually my must-visit twice--every single trip. The vibe? Pure gold. A little gritty, a lot of personality, and somehow both laid-back and rockin' at the same time. It's the kind of spot where the music feels like it's got a heartbeat and the walls have stories (and because they do - read Maxine "Call Me Madam" by Maxine Temple Jones!). And the food...look...the pizza alone is worth a pilgrimage. I don't know what magic they put in that dough, but it's the kind you think about when you're supposed to be thinking about other things. Everything that comes out of the kitchen is amazing--comfort food with swagger. Since I visited last they added ravioli to the menu!! So rich and delicious!! One of the best parts? The people. I've met countless amazing folks during every visit--locals, travelers, characters of all kinds--and every single one adds to the charm of the place. It's got that rare magic where strangers feel like friends within minutes. I have actually met relatives there that I never knew about or heard of!!! The bartenders are the BEST of the BEST!!! The staff is super cool, the atmosphere is electric in that perfectly-imperfect dive-bar way, and it's one of those local treasures you never want to tell too many people about because it's that good. If you want real flavor, real fun, and a place that just feels like home the moment you walk in--this is it.

Rod's Pizza Cellar: A Classic Hot Springs Staple…read more Rod's Pizza Cellar has been a Hot Springs favorite since 1975, and it's easy to see why. Their pizzas are baked in old‑school brick ovens, which gives them that unmistakable, nostalgic flavor you just don't get from modern setups. The menu is huge, with everything from classic pies to creative options like the Godfather and Razorbaccio, both of which get a lot of love from regulars. I personally prefer the Godmother. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, and even though the brick‑oven method means your food may take a little longer, it's absolutely worth the wait. It feels like a true local spot -- the kind of place families have been coming to for decades. A great choice if you're craving hearty, handmade pizza with a bit of Hot Springs history behind it.

The place was fresh. Walls, decor and everything looked fresh and new. No dust, old seating or knicked up walls or baseboards. Also, the rolls are AMAZING! 4 because as nice as waitress was- she forgot our salads. We had to go ask for those, when our pasta appeared and still not salads. Also, the pasta was great, not over cooked, nice lunch proportions; but the sauce was nothing stellar. Honestly, I much prefer Luciano pasta sauce- it's much more authentic. Service was great, nice atmosphere, everyone friendly and busy. I Would go back and back and back.

They both came with lettuce, tomato and onion. We asked for extra dressing. They only gave us one but we didn't see it and asked for it. They gave us a different dressing than what came on it. The cheese wasn't melted and I didn't care for the bread (personal preference). Also, we didn't get our pickles. My husband said he liked his (even though he doesn't like onion). The website said they deliver but when I called they said they don't so we had to pick it up. You take a chance when traveling. I made the wrong choice.
