    Great high end bar to have a few drinks and an appetizer. We didn't get a chance to try the menu but we really enjoyed our time here.

It's the kind of place you could and would want to be a regular at if you lived nearby. I want to be a regular, and I live 500 miles away. But you can bet when I'm heading that way, I'm stopping in again. I had skipped lunch and was really hungry, but didn't want to get something real heavy either, and I though I had "sort of" done that. I was totaly wrong. Blue Crab Ravioli in an artichoke/spinache alfredo sauce, topped with toasted/roasted mozzarella... I know what you're thinking, cream sauce and cheese? How is that light you knucklehead? Well, I was thinking that ravioli, usually served with 4-6 pieces would be just drizzled in this topping. NOPE. Scalding hot cast iron skillet loaded with ravioli, in that heavy, cheese/cream sauce. But here's how good it was. I took half to go, and had 1/4 of that when I got home 2 days later (always carry a cooler bag kids...) Then I had the remainder for lunch one day. Best ravioli I've ever had, and I want to be Italian and have had a lot of pasta in my life. I sat at the bar, and when people sat down around me, we all started talking. It's that kind of place. It's also dark, dank, gritty, and it's character shows in every space. Did I mention the great tunes? Yep... music right up my alley. Food, drinks, music, vibes... Yeah, 10 - 10 would go back again. And again.

    Wow! Okay as a person visiting the town for 2 days... SKIP THIS PLACE!…read moreI'll be the first to admit the food is DELICIOUS. The service? Horrendous. 1.) Had to continuously interrupt the bartender talking with their friend at the bar. 2.) a DOG was behind the bar. Never seen that before. A public place. No pets allowed. And yet, for the 2nd day in a row a dog is running free. Cute and fluffy! But not the place. 3.) made a very specific request, and would've been fine if the answer was no but the bartender said very enthusiastically "SURE!" And then once the bill arrived I was charged double. I explained the situation "oh, my bad, I misheard you and charged you for 2." That was it. So, it's your mistake for not paying attention because your friend is sitting at the bar but now it's my problem? I think not. To make matters worse? I went to pay using the QR code printed on the receipt and she immediately states "sorry, that doesn't work!" I tried it anyways. It worked! Do not recommend. Lots of cool spots, you can skip this one.

    Our last visit here the rooftop was closed, so we were happy it was open this trip (we went twice)…read more Great views of the historic downtown Hot Springs area. They have bar and table service, and food offerings available. We only had drinks but the food offerings looked fantastic. We enjoyed that at least on our visit, the volume was minimal which allowed us to converse without yelling. Thank you for providing an enjoyable experience in the heart of town

    I saw this place from a hike up toward one of the peaks, and on a hot summer day all I wanted to do…read morewas sit wherever that lovely rooftop was. We kept it in our sites as we descended, and found it to be on the 6th floor of the Avenue Hotel. Its outdoor seating area was lovely. On one side you're just in the tree tops. The other side looks over an underwhelming cityscape, but that's not Rooftop's fault. It's still just nice to be on a rooftop! It started to rain not long after we arrived. We moved under the patio cover, and that was a lovely way to watch and hear the rain until the wind really picked up and we moved inside. It was only around 4pm so we both ordered the mocktail on the menu. It's the only one and pretty simple, but it was quite delicious -- muddled strawberry and 7up. I bet it would be even better with Ginger Beer! Maybe a little high in price for the small size and no booze, but oh well. As the rain continued, we decided to share an appetizer to wait it out. We ordered an olive hummus which was surprisingly decent (I'm not an olive fan normally) with pita chips. I wasn't a huge fan of the pita chips, but they served as a perfectly fine delivery mechanism for said hummus. The staff there was really nice and seemed to get along and share duties well -- in a small place you notice things like that and it made an impression.

    This is a great place and we always stop in whenever in Hot Springs. This trip didn't disappoint…read moreand we visited twice. We always strike-up an interesting conversation with people sitting at the bar. Several local beers on tap and we had the Space Force, an IPA, on both visits....very good. We split a Reuben sandwich with fries and it was excellent. I also ordered a side of fried okra, which was delicious and so hot, I had to let it cool before eating. The bartenders are always friendly and will talk if time allows. The whole place has a great vibe. Speaking of the okra, I noticed that on my bill I was charged $13 and change for it. I thought WOW, but gladly paid the bill. The more I thought about it, I figgered it must be an error. On our second trip, I mentioned it to the bartender and asked if it were possibly an error. It was an error and she asked me how to make it right (there was a logical explanation for the error). I made it clear that I was not complaining, just wanting clarification. She asked if a complimentary order of fried okra was OK....certainly! Great place and a Hot Springs icon. Highly recommend and dont skip it.

The Carne Asada was good but the steak was grainy and a bit overdone (what is with the ton of onions all over everything) but the plate was good overall! Mezcal was awesome as well. We come yearly to Hot Springs and this is our first stop for dinner each time. Very much worthwhile!

It's not puréed to oblivion, but is full of chunks of avocado. The food always comes out hot and in a pleasing display. We are impressed with the variety of taco offerings, but have also ordered sandwiches, nachos, chimichangas, and burritos. The portions are always large and we always take home leftovers. Lots of people don't like that they charge for chips and sals, but their location makes it tempting to grab a drink and free apps and then eat dinner somewhere else. They have to pay staff and cover food costs too. My recommendation is the margarita flight-tropical, peach, jalapeño, and watermelon. I'm also a huge fan of the Quesabirrias, but the beef barbacoa and Al pastor street tacos are also great. The Diablos Nachos will make a meal for two. It pleases ages 10-50 every time!

They have…read morebig shady umbrellas and misters along the perimeter, so even if it's hot, it's not miserable. The staff were super friendly and didn't rush us at all. Kid and dog friendly - lots of cute dogs around. :) The beer and root beer are the stars of the show, they're brewed with the geothermal spring water - only brewery in the world to do that! The beer was tasty, and some had interesting ingredients like dill, basil, and jalapeño. I did wish they had a non-pickle flavored sour. I'm happy they offer flights to try different varieties! Food was decent, delicious fries and the elote nuggets were to die for. The bacon on my BLT had a nice peppered flavor. We finished off the afternoon with a root beer float which was lovely! They have a little gift shop (really just a small shelving unit) with goodies you can buy, if you're into that at breweries. We picked up some can cozies for $3 a pop!

    Such a unique restaurant here in Hot Springs. Only brewery in a U.S. National Park. Only Brewery in…read morethe world that uses the thermal spring water. The restaurant itself is located in a historic brewhouse. With all of that being said... you can certainly expect a wait, especially during peak hours. For our party of three at about 11 on a weekday during the middle of spring break, it was about an hour wait. Thankfully, it wasn't too big of a problem. We still had some parts of Bathhouse Row that we had to explore. When there was a spot available, we got the notification through text. We headed on over. We were seated at a table right behind the host. It was shared with another pair but there was enough room so it wasn't too much of a problem. Usually, we don't drink. However, because of the uniqueness of this place, we just had to try. We aren't built for the Beer Bath that allows you to sample all 18 beers on tap. Instead, we opted for the flight which was more than enough for us. I'll be honest... I can't tell the difference at all between the different beers. Nevertheless, that speaks more to my inexperienced beer palate. The four taps that we got were all tasty and lasted us through the meal. For starter, we got the fried cauliflower. Crispy exterior that made our daily veggie intake that much more delicious. Paired very well with ranch. For main, I got Rose's Burger. The bacon jam provided a good amount of sweetness that was balanced by some of the spice from the pepperjack cheese and the savoriness of the burger itself. My mom got the reuben sandwhich. It was standard. My dad got the steak sandwich - it's basically a philly cheese. I thought it was particularly good especially since they use beer cheese made in-house. In terms of serivce, I will say that it was slow at times. However, as mentioned, this place is incredibly busy so definitely gotta give them some grace. In the future, I'd definitely come back again given the quality and uniqueness of Superior Bathhouse
