Saddle Creek Woodfired Grill

Because of the reason I'm visiting NLR, I probably won't visit this restaurant again, which is a shame.

DisappointingOrdered prime rib medium rareIt was tough and leatheryMy wife's steak was under cooked.

We were seated in the bar areaOur issues WERE NOT service relatedMy husband and I were celebrating our birthdays.

We sat at the bar and tried to get served. Finally left after about 10 minutes. Just an odd overall experience of being ignored. Disappointed as we were looking forward to some seafood

The Saltwater Grill has been a Galveston staple for some time. I was encouraged that the menu has been updated with new items, while preserving some of their best offerings - I swear the Shanghai Delight is laced with Prozac because I'm always happy when I eat it. This time I tried one of their new "naked" offerings, hoping the fish would be allowed to shine. I had the grilled redfish, which was done perfectly - the very thin edges were a little crisp and carmelized but the fish was still moist and flavorful. I did miss the bread - this was one of the few restaurants in town that started with something with substance, so I was quite disappointed when a little crock of crackers appeared instead of bread. The restaurant is very noisy - I was ok hearing my companions but certainly couldn't hear the server well.
