Restaurants in Little Rock

The Bugler is the upscale steakhouse at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and the trackside setting is its clearest differentiator. At $$ pricing with a 150-selection wine list and a chef trained in French fine dining kitchens, it earns a recommendation for race day dining and special occasions. Booking is easy; reservations are recommended when racing is active.

A Southern steakhouse with back-to-back Opinionated About Dining recognition (2023 recommended, 2024 ranked #713) and a 4.6 rating from nearly 800 Google reviews. Doe's Eat Place is the right call in Oxford if serious beef in a relaxed, no-fuss room is the goal. Dinner only, Tuesday through Saturday — book a table rather than ordering to go.
