Saltgrass Steak House — Restaurant in Houston

10 days ago, I called Saltgrass in Gulfgate inquiring about reserving the private dining area for my Aunt's 80th birthday on November 29th. All of my information was taken and I was told that they had a lady that was responsible for the private dining area and she was not in that day.

I gave the potato soup a try — not something I usually order. It wasn’t bad, just not a standout. If you’re a fan of baked potatoes and like your food extra chew-optional, this...

I ordered a Filet Mignon "medium" and it was cooked as "medium well". I sent it back to receive another filet mignon that was undercook to "rare". I did not eat it and mentioned it to the manager. The waiter's name is Temo and he was very apologetic but it was not his fault and we told him that. He was a great fantastic waiter and should be commended for his care of his customers. Although they just opened this location, I understand all the staff, including the cooks, are all learning. But they did discount the steaks so that was a good thing. Service and atmosphere...
