on Citysearch Sep 11, 2008Feeling adventurous? Craving something different? How about elk or buffalo? Then head out here. It feels like you're in a cabin in the wilds. They have a great menu that also includes a few vegetarian and fish dishes.... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 25, 2008I am also amazed at the Michelin star. We went there last night for a friend's birthday dinner, so we kept the complaining to the staff at a minimum (did not want to spoil the evening), but this was a very mediocre... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 24, 2007When I see spelling mistakes on the menu, a minor red flag goes up. When the waiter gives us menus before offering a cocktail or water, that red flag gets bigger. Then when he opens the champagne and asks, "Do you want me... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 15, 2007The $90 a head Chef's menu sounded great, complete with wine selection. Problem was the wine kept showing up at least 5 minutes after every dish was served. Tuna was great, quail was weird--it tasted like a minature... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 21, 2007Saddle Peak has declined to the point where not even the lovely setting or interesting decor can justify a visit. The service is non-existent but I recommend you save yourself the effort of complaining because no one... (more)
