Silk at Oaklawn Casino (Hot Springs, AR)




🧀🧀🧀 (3 out of 5 slices of Swiss) 

Split a Reuben at Silk, inside the Oaklawn Casino, and I have to say — it was a solid tasting contender in the sandwich game. 

What worked: 
  • The sandwich tasted great and was gone in what felt like seconds. Always a good sign. 
  • The rye was grilled just right, and the flavors were well balanced. 
  • We paired it with onion rings, and they were crispy, golden perfection — maybe the sleeper hit of the meal. 

Where it fell short: 
  • The meat portion was a bit stingy. For a casino restaurant, I expected a bit more heft. Felt a little light, especially for splitting. 

Final take: If you’re in Oaklawn and craving a Reuben, this one will definitely scratch the itch. Just don’t come starving, or consider not splitting it unless you’re also hitting the buffet later.
