Elegant and beautiful. Owner is from Italy, and you can tell by the food. Don't dare miss out on the lobster bisque. Some of the menu items are a little more pricey than others. However, the pasta dishes are all very authentic italian at a reasonable price. I repeat, DO NOT go without trying the lobster bisque. I made my... more

Portions are huge but everything is ala carte. Lobster ravioli was good but sauce tasted like the base was Campbell's tomato soup. Best part of the meal was the bread and pesto. Piano was so loud conversation across the table was difficult. more

I decided to try for myself before I listened to bad reviews. My wife ordered the chicken parmigiana and she was not disappointed at all. I had the 20-ounce bome-in ribeye, topped with gorganzola cream sauce, mozzarella cheese, and baby shrimp. Fantastic! Two glasses of chianti went well with the meal. We both loved the bread and olive tamponade. The... more

Loved the atmosphere of the restaurant! The food was just so so. I thought it was a bit overpriced. We went during the lunch hour and for almost ten dollars I would think a salad would come with my pasta. My meal of chicken with roasted red peppers over penne was pretty good and my husbands' spaghetti dish was lacking.... more

My wife and I had dinner here about 2 years ago around August 28-30. I had the Beff Boulognese, and became very ill the next day. The restaurant ignored my phone calls and emails. Just wanted to let them know what happened. We will not be back. Ken more

The good - friendly staff; nice wine variety; good musical choices from pianist; complimentary bruschetta was delicious; a website that made the place look like a wonderful spot for dinner; the decor was mostly pleasing and elegant (see exceptions below); dress not too specific for tourists = some jeans, some dresses The bad - dinner too expensive for the quality;... more

I get the feeling that Al Capone, who made Hot Springs his vacation place and owned a stake in its illegal gambling industry, would feel at home at Belle Arti. The building is historic and no doubt Capone drove by it many times. I am no expert on Italian cooking but I can say that everything I have ever eaten... more

Came here for a physician’s dinner a few weeks back and really enjoyed the food and wine. Only problem was that I enjoyed the wine a little to much!!!! Met the owner, very nice guy! more

I hadn't been to Belle Arti in about ten years, but had very fond memories of it, so on our recent trip to Hot Springs we had to see if it was the same. It was our wedding anniversary and we wanted to do something special, and thankfully, it was everything I had remembered - first class all the way.... more
