Cottage Inn Restaurant

$$$

A short drive to "the quiet side" of Eureka Springs will deliver a culinary experience that will make you think you're across the big pond. Chef-owner Linda Hager brings her passion for Mediterranean travel to the plates of her guests with dishes like shrimp à la Grecque—shrimp, artichoke hearts, and tomatoes seared in olive oil and garlic, then tossed with capellini pasta and feta cheese. The international wine list offers 15 wines by the glass. Check the website for special wine dinners, scheduled on Sunday nights throughout the year.

Gaskin's Cabin Steakhouse

$$$

Dining in the 1860s log cabin built by John Gaskins as his family home will give you a taste of authentic Eureka Springs hospitality. The steak-house designation is well earned, but pescatarians and vegetarians will feel comfortable at the table, even if their choices are somewhat limited. Plan to enjoy your meal by not being in too big a hurry. Reservations are not accepted, but you can call up to 30 minutes ahead of your arrival to be put on the waiting list.

Local Flavor Café

$$$

Catering to a broad range of tastes, Local Flavor is a real crowd-pleaser—light eaters will appreciate a selection of healthy salads and small plates; vegetarians get a generous nod; and burger buffs can wrap two hands around hearty half-pounders. Kids get their own menu at lunch and dinner, and it's more sophisticated than most. Doing Sunday brunch? Try the gingerbread waffle topped with seasonal fruit, toasted pecans, and real maple syrup. Reservations are taken by phone only, by a live person, during regular business hours—no voice-mail or email reservations.
