Our daughter was in town from Fayetteville for the weekend and asked to go out to dinner....on a Sunday night....in Hot Springs. There are limited options for nice Sunday night dinners, but I remembered Eden Restaurant & was able to make a last minute reservation. We were all really pleased with our entrees (porterhouse pork chop, pasta with shrimp, & an entree salad with chicken) and my daughter said her Lavender Lover cocktail was a nice blend of tart & sweet. The atmosphere was relaxed and the service was good. We had a lovely time. Eden is my *favorite* brunch in town, but we will definitely be coming back for dinner more often, too!

10/10 the atmosphere and food was great. I had crab cakes and beignets for appetizers. Then I ordered the pomegranate lemon drop, it was delicious. I had a Caesar salad with salmon that was on point. No complaints at all!

About the restaurant

Our vision for The Grumpy Rabbit is to serve both Lonoke residents as well as people from surrounding communities and visitors passing through town. We want Lonoke to thrive and be prosperous and believe that leading by example and running a successful business will attract others to the area and inspire similar investment. Our hope for The Grumpy Rabbit is that as an anchor for revitalization, it will become a central location that draws foot traffic to historic downtown Lonoke. Additionally, as we employ both full-time and part-time staff, we are excited to bring new families to Lonoke, and know they will love the area as much as we do!

We made a reservation for lunch for a party of 6. Everything was great from the moment we walked in. The service was amazing, our server was very attentive, and he never left us looking for him for anything. I think the most impressive thing is that all 6 plates arrived at the same time, and all were hot and fresh. The lunch menu has a great variety with something for everyone. My 4 stars on the food, is that there are no options for appetizers or shareables on the lunch menu, but it's definitely not a deal breaker. Marty's is just not talked about enough as a great place for lunch or dinner!

About the restaurant

The Capital Bar & Grill may be the embodiment of Capital’s Southern Comfortable culinary vision focusing on provincial comfort food with a particular emphasis on the bounty of Arkansas. The tools of the bar include the most sought-after liquors, mixers and ingredients. In sort of a back-to-the-future twist, it has been a devotion to handmade classic and custom cocktails (the Aviation vs. the Cropduster) that has established Capital Bar as a nationally-regarded spirits destination. All this said, we strive to create a fun, relaxing experience for all of our guests: The friendly atmosphere is especially suited to business lunches, after-work drinks and get-togethers, as well as special date nights.

Good experience. Excellent service. Exorbitant tax on liquor but not your fault.

Overall good. The automatic 20% service fee on the bill with a tip request is annoying and should be advertised/included with the meal price. Disrespects your staff.
