Salt Creek Grille Description:
Central to cooking here is the mesquite grill where steaks, chops and assorted seafood go before the fire. Servings are gargantuan, but then so are the prices. The Grille Chop at $25 is a 16-ounce double-cut glistening beauty, brined in apple cider and served on a mountain of horseradish-mashed potatoes with a side of what the menu calls "Kentucky pole beans" (translation: a ration of undercooked green beans) and a baked apple topped with apple chutney. Seafood is equally appealing. King salmon stuffed with crab, shrimp and artichoke is a house specialty. Waiting for a table at the bar or in the lounge areas surrounding roaring fireplaces is so convivial that you'll be tempted to stay put even when your name is called. Service is young, energetic and a bit spotty. Still, the lovely Mission-style architecture along with the smell of mesquite and the accessible and carefully chosen wine list make for fun dining. The sweetest of endings comes with the signature chocolate ganache soufflé.
