Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

501 Prime offers an "outstanding dining experience" with "amazing" food and "exceptional" service. Guests rave about the "perfectly cooked" steaks and "fresh" oysters. The atmosphere is lively, especially at the bourbon bar. While some find it pricey, many agree the quality justifies the cost. A top choice in Hot Springs.

We had wonderful service. From reception to the servers/wait staff. Great recommendations from them (regarding the menu, local things etc). Would return for sure if we are ever back in the area.

Order the pork chop. If you start eating it at 6:30 p.m., you might be done by 9 p.m. It's that big and that outstanding.

Service was NOT good for the money you spend. The ousters were out of this world! The steaks….definitely nothing to write home about. Super sad. Maybe I had extremely high expectations because this place was highly recommended. Server left our beverages empty several times. We ended up ordering beer from another server. Just not a great experience for spending $300.

Amazing service and food. We will choose a different cut of steak next time but what we ordered was amazing. Our server I believe his name was Scott was amazing! We did have the two fan favs and both were exactly what we hoped for, duck egg rolls and mango Brussels, yum! They did have a birthday card on the table for my husband and topped it off with a candle in dessert 🥰
