"I'm from Texas and nothing can compare to Texas BBQ! Everyone has their own preferences though, so don't judge me. I wanted to try McClard's since I was in Hot Springs, as it has a great history and is a favorite among locals and visitors. The staff was very friendly and attentive, but the food was just okay. The sliced beef tasted like pot roast with BBQ sauce poured on top, the beans were different and tasted more like chili beans, which I wasn't a fan of. The ribs were tough and chewy, but the sausage was good. I did enjoy the potato salad and the side of fries with dry seasoning sprinkled on top was delicious. I even bought the dry seasoning to take home, which was the best part. The BBQ sauce was okay, but not my favorite. However, I thought the loaded fries were the best dish in my opinion, and if the cheese was melted on top, it would have been perfect."
