Big Sky Steakhouse — Local services in Oakdale

On Saturday night before our event, the four of us decided to eat at Big Sky Steakhouse. We were able to be seated without any wait time nor a reservation. We were promptly greeted with a smile and friendliness. Two of us ordered sodas and two of us ordered drink from the bar. Everything came out quickly and we also received some fresh bread and different butters. Our waiter explained all the different types of bread and butters. When we were ordering everything out waiter even asked if we had any food allergies, I don't think I've ever been asked that at a restaurant. That was so thoughtful. We ordered two appetizers, the grilled oyster au gratin and the pan-seared scallops. We ordered our food as well, which was wedge salad, French onion soup, Caesar salad with shrimp, snapper Pontchartrain, 22oz bone-in cowboy ribeye steak, and a seafood pasta. I tried everything. Everything was AMAZING to me except the rice that was under the fish for the snapper. Everyone at the table liked it except for me.

The oysters and scallops were phenomenal. The shrimp were HUGE. The French onion soup was on an entirely different level. Everything came out fast and hot. Will have...

It is very dark so for those who like myself and my family that wear glasses and have trouble seeing in the dark it was not ideal. Other than that it was beautiful decor, we arrived a couple minutes after they opened. They brought bread and butter out however our server did not explain that there were 2 options of bread and what the 3 butters were. Thankfully none of us had nut allergies because she never asked and half the bread had nuts. We had to ask what the butters were as she did not explain. We absolutely loved the lobster bisque however the lobster was still cold in the center. The portions were a great size and food was delicious. My biggest issue is again that we had to ask the server about things such as bread, butter, and also the special we heard the table next to us order it and had to ask our server. Also the mushrooms on the sides menu are mediocre at best...

We just had dinner at Big Sky Steakhouse a few hours ago, and we're beyond impressed. Darius provided knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and hospitable service! We started our meal with a dozen oysters au gratin, which were outstanding. My hubby and I were going to play at the casino after dinner, and didn't want to carry to go boxes, so we opted to share the 20 ounce prime rib. It was at least three inches thick, and cooked to perfection! Darius made sure we both had au ju, and creamy horseradish sauce. He kept our glasses filled, and checked on us often, without being intrusive. Hubby had a massive baked potato, and I chose the mushrooms for a lighter side dish. I highly recommend this restaurant, and definitely ask for Darius, if...
