    Saltgrass

    Not one of my favorite places to eat. Is it me, or is their steak VERY average for the price? That said, I am making the company pay for it, so maybe I shouldn't whine.

    Re: Saltgrass

    You're absolutely right.

    Stop whining if you're not paying for it.

    Not only is it highly overrated food, the service sucks and I usually only tip a nickel.

    Drive down to Bob's Steakhouse in Plano, Texas. Best steakhouse in America.

    We ate at Saltgrass when we were in Dallas a couple years ago. I don't remember the steak being great or bad, just remember I ate one. But they had some shrimp/cheese/jalapeno appetizers that were excellent.

    Re: Saltgrass

    The few times I visited Saltgrass (Lewisville) I thought the ribeye was excellent. The bourbon was good, too. And in plentiful supply.

    If the company's paying for it and you can get away with it, bring a few extra co-workers along - that way you can have more than your share of the booze and hide it in the total. Hey - worked for me.

    I won't order a steak at Outback. Way too many other better choices.

    Did you know that the British spell "whining" as "whinging?"

    Totally threw me when I read some Tom Holt books.

    AND Ruth's Chris is now allowing franchises. They used to be 100% corporate.

    Re: Saltgrass

    Texas Land and Cattle here in the metro are not too bad either. The Headmaster took the new faculty to a place called Blade's Chophouse in downtown FW, is was really good.

    Re: Saltgrass

    Texas Land and Cattle is OK.

    But if I want a really, really good steak, I'll just head over to my father-in-law's house since he's been in the restaraunt industry for...well, a very long time.
    Just imagine there's a really obnoxious graphical sig here

    Re: Saltgrass

    I like Sullivan's, BTW, if we're talking chains. Very good.

    Re: Saltgrass

    Saltgrass is ok, if it's all that's around.

    If you want a great steak, try Papa's Steakhouse in Dallas. Freaking amazing.

    Re: Saltgrass

    Best steaks I've ever had

    1. Emeril's Delmonico
    2. Sullivan's in Baton Rouge (not sure if this is the same Frozen referred to.)
    3. Ruth Chris

    After this you have the chain Outback-type places. They are all the succ compared to the above three.

    If you haven't had a ribeye at Emeril's then you really haven't lived IMHO.

    Re: Saltgrass

    Baton Rouge-I think so. Like I said, it's a chain. Only like 10 restaurants, though.
