    Poor wait time management. 25% food availability upon arrival on buffet. Excellent pork chops, good prime rib with everything else mediocre when food finally became available. Desserts tasted and looked store bought. Kitchen was definitely not prepared for 6:30-8:00 pm crowd. Food became available at 8:30. Disappointing for $60 buffet. Arlington can do better.

    The worse meal we’ve had in years. Very institutional food, meaning “from a can”. The only fresh food was the roast beef, smoked salmon, & lettuce. Totally, totally not worth the price.

    Horrible experience. Our overall dining time was 2.5 hours. It took 20 minutes for service to arrive at our table to take drink orders, despite only 10 tables being served. The server was highly inexperienced. It took another 30 minutes to receive our drinks (we were told the bar in the lobby placed walk ups ahead of restaurant orders), and then another hour (1 hour 45 minutes after seating) to get served food. The order was wrong. Then, the bill was wrong. Our food was served cold. Total check was $240. We were VERY disappointed. We do not recommend this restaurant.

    Great venue. Salad bar, entree and carver stations all very good. Would have given five stars, but dessert options weren’t as advertised. Pecan and Pumpkin pie were the only edible options. Cookies were overcooked and hard as a rock. No cheesecake, lemon pudding, chocolate mousse cake, carrot cake, Tiramisu ? Was told deserts were pretty much all gone? How’s that possible when reservations let the chef and crew know how many are going to be needed to be served? Price point of buffet warrants the full advertised menu; not limited.

    Our reservations were at 2:15 & we weren’t seated till 2:45. Our server wasn’t very attentive. We had the buffet, but had difficulty getting our silverware & water refills.

    Christmas buffet. Shrimp cocktail was excellent. Prime rib was good, but was well done. Server was on point. Desserts were still somewhat frozen.

    The Grand Christmas Buffet was anything but grand. The food was disgusting processed crap!!! For $175.00 for two people I expected much better quality. Cold Sister Shubert rolls, Stovetop stuffing or something similar, overcooked meats…most things were not edible. We will never make that mistake again!!!

    This was a special Christmas buffet at the historic Arlington hotel in Hot Springs, AR. It was very nice with a live pianist playing Christmas songs. There was a wide variety of salad items, main course items and dessert choices. There's also two carving stations and a smoked salmon station. The hotel was beautifully decorated. They had a giant ginger house and Christmas tree. We'll worth the $60 per person.
