- DDr AnnMemphis / West Tennessee •10 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe had just gotten into town and wanted to see the NBA finals game and eat at the same time. It was three of us,a girls trip, and decided on Mainline after checking the reviews. We were not disappointed! The nachos as an appetizer was impressive with the unique way it was served and very delicious. Almost had too many to enjoy my blackberry grilled chicken salad. Both other people were satisfied with their choices. Recommend this restaurant/ sports bar. Great service too.More infoMainline SportsPrice: Moderate• American• Hot Springs•4.3

Discover Hot Springs
Consider yourself lucky if you get hungry in this town. The food scene melds its heartland heritage with an appetite for worldly adventure. Southern barbecue tempts meat lovers with tender and flavorful beef and pork, but a surprising number of restaurants have vegetarian choices, too. Friendly pubs and diners offer familiar American foods and pizza, but regional favorites like fried pickles, cheese dip, and possum pie can enliven menus. For something truly local, tuck into a plate of fried catfish drawn from the Mississippi River. If anyone in your party wants a dinner inspired by other cultures, ethnic cuisines such as Italian, Mexican, and Ecuadorian can offer you some more exotic choices.
