    We went to The Bugler as part of my birthday celebration trip. From the moment we walked in until we left the service and attention were amazing! The host, server, and chef all acknowledged my birthday. They all took the time to make me feel special, including bringing out special appetizers to the table and a beautifully delicious dessert. The meals were delicious as well, perfectly cooked and detailed presentation. We always book The Bugler when we are in the area, it Never disappoints.

    The experience just wasn’t what we have been used to … We are from Hot Springs and are frequent diners… the buffet didn’t live up to expectations or price… $65 pp without included drinks is way more than anyone else in town and the food quality wasn’t even close… Prime rib was cold and no other complimentary sides was main problem …Hopefully an improvement occurs soon; the ambience is worth the effort
