Gregory's Mesquite Grill — Restaurant in Mesquite

Worst visit yet. Servers as usual are great. Food is usually good, this visit & a past one there were issues with undercooked lobster. This time the crab, were granules maybe from the crab being cut in 1/2 were on the steak & in the crab. There's no way to know for sure what it was. We had reservations as usual. Walked up to Gregory's, a bunch of people were standing in the walkway out front. No hostess. We waited, then saw a couple walk out & wait. We walked to the desk inside to check in. The hostess showed up and looked annoyed, seemingly not hearing us say we were just checking in & had a reservation. We were told to go back outside. She followed & called out 'who's next' curtly into the a group of people. She asked if they had reservations. Look them up & ushered 4 of them inside. She never checked anyone in first to see if their reservation was before the other. While we waited we noticed the dress code strictly enforced sign, 'no sports team shirts or hats' which was funny because the group she took back had both. So, not so strictly enforced? She returned, asked us if we had a reservation. We said yes. She asked through the front desk? We said no through the website reservation system. She finally found it, ushered us to the worst table we have ever been sat at. A table for 2 next to a post, the over full bar next to us & right in front of the kitchen, with narrow path between us & another table. Staff squeezed to pass each other. My husband lifted his water to drink & a waitress ran into him. Every time someone passed their elbow was over our head or shoulder. The line after line of people, hostesses & patrons, bus boys and waiters, even patrons from the restaurant going back & forth to get their own drinks from the bar, went by in a continuous stream, passing us the same way. Then they moved the 2 tables closer to us together arranging chairs in the pathway to fit 8 golfers in hats & sportswear btw haha. Then a waiter with a huge tray, in his right hand came out of the kitchen, the tray going over both our heads, with food steaks & knives on board. Had a golfer at the new table moved, the tray & waiter would have been on us. He loaded the tray again & came back over the table of 8. We waited a while for food & we people watched. We saw someone leave in a matching yoga outfit with Lycra crop tank. I only bring it up because of the sign "strictly enforced". Many times we dine here, there are big, loud, over served groups of golfers which make it difficult for those trying to have an intimate dinner to enjoy. They put these groups in the front room, not in one of the back rooms where they would be less disruptive to people trying to have conversations. This would also be a good place to put them or anyone not following the strictly enforced dress code, which often times are these groups. Putting large groups in the back room makes sense that's not to disrupt intimate dining. After 20 min. of heavy traffic & the incident with my husband's elbow, I decided to document some of the issues to show the problem. Unfortunately, I missed the flyover of the tray coming out of the kitchen, but did get it coming back the opposite way, after a table was cleared. Keep in mind all our waiters were awesome as they always are. We had some of the same waiters we usually have. It's not their fault they put this table where they did. This is just an accident waiting to happen. All it takes is somebody moving their chair to send a waiter with a full tray flying into your patrons injuring people. I highly suggest not placing that table there anymore. By the time our order was taken, I was already a little annoyed 1st by the the hostess who made people feel we were all doing something wrong just showing up for our reservation. She seemed put out. Before our order was taken the traffic was insane. I was not happy with the table. It definitely killed my mood. Where we both usually get steak & seafood, hors d'oeuvres, soup, salads, dessert. I ended up just getting soup and salad, our bill was around $100 shy of what it...

First of all, nice atmosphere, good people, good service. We decide to start with just appetizers and go from there. I ordered the seared scallops and a lobster tail. My friend ordered the shrimp cocktail. My scallops arrived and I was a little shocked to see only 2 one would be considered small, and the other was still in pre-school. Seared would not be a word to describe the way they were cooked. The bed of shaved vegetables and sauce was so bland I actually added salt. So, a half a bite later they were gone and only $14. What NOT a good deal. Next the Shrimp cocktail for my friend $14. It arrived in an attractive glass half filled with sauce shaved vegetables and sone cucumber slices, The 4 shrimp were jumbo size and over all she was excited. When she tried it, she immediately said "oh my god" what is that sauce! Complaining it was very hot. I tasted it and noticed a strong presence of horse radish which cleared my sinuses right away (which I like) but for a 74-year-old woman who did not like spicy it was shocking. The shrimp was not fresh but hard and I used a knife to cut it. So, I moved on to the lobster tail which immediately looked anemic it also was shrunk dry and hard but still it was lobster. Overall, I was not impressed with the appetizers so decided not to proceed with a main course. Best wishes Gregory's may you get a better chef and scallops that are at least in middle school. I can hope one day that your desire for profits doesn't reduce your portion sizes to a baby spoon full. All this for only $75 with glass...

We found ourselves at Gregory’s Mesquite Grill on a recent evening, curious to see how their elevated menu compared to some of the more understated steakhouses I’ve visited across the country. The experience was pleasant, warm, and inviting. perhaps more focused on comfort than innovation, but still enjoyable. Naturally, I had to try their Steak Florentine. It was theatrical, generous, and clearly designed for sharing. While the cut was solid and well-executed, I found myself wishing for a bolder flavor profile or an unexpected twist, something to match the grandeur of its presentation. The Rib Eye checked the expected boxes. It was reliable, satisfying... though I’ll admit I’ve had rib eyes elsewhere that left a deeper impression. The Pan-Seared Salmon came perched atop a pea purée. It was light, well-balanced. There’s something charming about a place that doesn’t overreach. Gregory’s isn’t trying to compete with modern tasting menus or molecular theatrics. It’s giving classic steakhouse energy. With hearty portions, warm staff, and an approachable menu that doesn’t pretend to be more than it is. Is it unforgettable? No. But is it overpriced? Not in the slightest bit. The value is undeniable, and while a few dishes may lack the finesse or complexity that I’ve come to expect elsewhere, they make up for it in comfort and hospitality. You’re paying for a familiar kind...
