Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Hot Springs

Petit & Keet is one of our favorite places in town to eat for special occasions, so it was an easy decision for this anniversary dinner. The food and drinks were all creative, delicious, and seasonal.

We started with meatballs, three-quarters of us had the filet, and all agreed it was 10/10. We ended the night with flourless chocolate cake and then rolled out of the building! One of our guests had halibut, and it was slightly overcooked. We all had a cocktail and were thoroughly impressed by each drink.

Eating at Vault was one of the best dining experiences I have had in quite some time! The staff was attentive, the executive chef even checked on our toddler a few times. And I had the best main course (Lamb Sirloin) I’ve ever had in the last 10+ years. Obviously highly recommend.

I’ve been two times and it was consistently delicious and viably. The price is to be expected for something downtown, but the menu is pretty unique compared to some other options.

My annual brunch with the grandsons was a success again this year. Everything is so beautiful this season. Plus, I left a special ring in the ladies’ room and did not notice until home. When I called, it had been turned it and the Capital Hotel is holding for me to pick up tomorrow! Nice place, nice people, and my young adult grandsons still look forward to our special day every Christmas.
