Saltgrass Steak House

I chose Saltgrass as a first date restaurant. It was mine and my dates first time. We both enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, and the service. We both loved the smoked mac and cheese. (Try It). We will definitely be going again!

Unique giant agave plant out front! Visited for the first time on a Friday night with no reservation and got seated in about 20 minutes. Organized staff in front and server was super kind and caring. Food was a little salty overall or else I would have given 5 stars. Great vibe, casual and fun. Clean inside and out, even the restroom.

First time here really enjoyed it, we had reservations which is best to do, because overhearing some of the people coming in without, the wait time is 45 minutes to an hour. The food and service was delicious.

The atmosphere was good. The meal was on point, myself and the bartender had a great conversation while eating my meal. Even though my birthday was almost 2 weeks ago she put a candle on the carrot cake. I recommend Saltgrass to a person who has never been. It's a Texas based restaurant.

Great food! Friendly staff. You may have to wait for a table, but it's so worth it. Sit at the bar while you wait! I highly recommend the spicy margarita!

Nice steak house with lots of options. Steaks are good and servers are attentive. Food portions are great and side dishes are good and inclusive. Quick and easy. Lines can be long, always best to reserve.

Salad was fresh with lots of toppings. Chicken fried steak was crispy and tender. Baked potato was a good size and perfectly cooked. Yeast rolls were soft and fluffy.

I ordered the steak medium, but it came out overcooked. It was tough, and I couldn’t eat it. Even though I told the waitress, she didn’t replace it because the place was really crowded. The chicken, though, was great.

Suly was amazing, funny attentive, and made our dinner experience. Our meal was great, but even if it wasn't Suly's service and hospitality we would of not even cared.

Suly was absolutely amazing. Charming fun and most of all a great server! Will be back soon!

Our server, Araceli, was amazingly attentive, answered questions, and made sure all our needs were taken care of! The food was the best I have had in a very long time. Whatever you order, add the Oscar topping! It's a meal in itself. Can't wait to go back and now that I joined the Landry's club, I've got lots of reasons! See you soon!

First time going to this restaurant it is a Landry s restaurant affiliate. There was a 45 minute wait for a table we sat at the bar. The bartenders were not very friendly or nice but they got our first drinks- we asked for a appetizer menu when we finally got it we ordered the mushrooms and the fried pickles-both were cooked perfectly with great taste and flavor. We cash out and went to our table. Our waiter was exceptional! I had the steak salad- it was good but definitely different- steak was cooked rare (just how I like it) it also had potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, green beans, eggs and blue cheese crumbles only disappointing thing was I asked for no onions and they were on it. The bread served at the table was super light and fluffy- I didn't care for the cinnamon butter.

Yum, we really enjoyed our dinner here. We did experience issues with our reservation and waited about 45-50 min for a table, but it was worth the wait. While waiting for a table we started with pickle chips and fried mushrooms at the bar. The mushrooms were incredible! They were cooked perfectly with a crunchy exterior and a juicy interior. The pickle chips were similarly perfectly fried and flavored. After finishing the appetizers, our table was ready. Our awesome waiter Titus greeted us and brought waters and complimentary rolls. The rolls were soft and delicious. We weren't fans of the accompanying cinnamon butter so Titus brought us regular butter. We ordered the brisket queso with our entrees. Everything was cooked to the right temp. I greatly enjoyed my rare steak and firm buttery broccoli. Overall we enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning!

This was my first time eating here. Very nice clean well run restaurant. I was in town getting some work done and was recommended that I try this place. I ordered the country style steak with mashed potatoes and it was absolutely amazing. Best I can remember having. My buddy got the same thing. It was well worth the price. Service was very good too. No complaints from me. Will go back next time I'm in town

We have had nothing but terrific experiences here. Most recently we went for a Saturday lunch. There was a 20-30 minute wait for a table, but the bar is first-come-first-serve, so bar it was. Did take a few minutes for a Bartender to appear, but he was super busy, and once he did show up he took great care of us. We love Elijah! We had a question at one point and our interaction with the Manager was also terrific. Folks here clearly are proud to take care of the customer. Much appreciated. Food-wise, it's so good! Our salads were cold and fresh with wonderful dressings. Even the croutons were good. Their rolls with cinnamon butter are always melt-in-your-mouth-good. This time I broke away from just seafood to try their Rib combo with grilled shrimp and my choice of mac n cheese for a side. Rib perfection! So good, I would be happy with just those. Shrimp was fine, but those ribs are wow! Husband's Country Fried Steak was also really good. We both took some home and leftovers were great. Prices for the quality, quantity and service are very reasonable. Do note their lunch menu is only for weekdays. Plenty of parking. Easy to get to in Knightdale. TIP: pay attention for Triangle Restaurant Week. We didn't utilize it this time, but the deal was phenomenal!

Another successful visit to Saltgrass for a 40th birthday celebration! We were seated very quickly and our waitress Cheyenne came shortly after. Cheyenne was the sweetest...very attentive and she gave my daughter a sticker which I thought was a nice touch since kids can get antsy having to wait. She kept me informed on my order and made sure we had refills,etc. We ordered the fried pickles and they were very good and had a little kick to them. Not overly fried or greasy. For my entree I ordered Pat's Ribeye with a loaded baked potato and a garden salad. The birthday boy ordered the Classic Steak and shrimp with fries and chicken tortellini soup. My daughter ordered a cheeseburger (no bun) with broccoli. Everything came out hot and fresh. At the end of the meal of course the little one got a sundae! If you ever stop in be sure to ask for Cheyenne! We will definitely be back again.

Took my mom here for her birthday, she has always talked about the location in Texas. The place is nice and big, and it was packed for a Thursday. I made reservations and we were promptly seated. Our waitress was nice, but not on her game. She asked for our drink orders and didn't ask if we wanted an appetizer. I thought that was customary, we start with the brisket queso, and I ordered a beer and my mom got a mixed drink. We then had to ask to place the order for dinner. I had the ribeye with salad Mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts. The only thing hot was the steak. I then noticed everyone beside us had fresh pepper from their server placed on the salad, our waitress offered none. I then went to find my waitress and explained that it was my mom birthday and add a piece of carrot cake to go, you know a surprise. She brings the carrot cake to the table and announces here is the carrot cake! My mom ordered the t bone, salad and mac and cheese. I will say the mac and cheese was great, but I packed much of all my food to heat up at home. I'm not sure I would try them again, unless my mom wants to go, and I doubt that she stated it wasn't as good as the one in Texas

We ordered a steak medium rare and we got one that was overcooked and burnt. They also gave us a whole potato with nothing on it when we ordered a loaded potato. Definitely don't recommend this place.

The pros- they take advance reservations, place is hugely popular, Nadine our server was fantastic, bread tasty, baked potato perfectly cooked. Whiskey and coke perfectly mixed. The cons- very noisy, ask for a booth that helps. The grilled chicken was overcooked. I actually had a hard time cutting it. Oscar filet was ordered medium well but came medium rare. When returned it was messy and the person who ordered it was disappointed with the crab. It is clear they have a good following but our entrees were lacking for us.

The brisket tacos were pretty good. shout out to our waiter Gab! he was amazing and very accommodating/attentive.

I was there several months ago but the wait was not very long. My steak was tender. Our server did a good job of keeping our soft drinks refilled. The memorabilia on the wall made it interesting to look around.

Service was excellent, food was hot to order and very tasteful. The waitress greeted us with a smile and very professional and clean restaurant, I will be coming back!!!!!

Server was excellent - Surprisingly good ribs here. Fried mozzarella good Soup and salad , nice portions. Wish the NC menu had selections from other states - quail ??? Really? No chicken tenders on NC menu- Wish there was a location closer , we were in knightdale on a Sunday - and everything else was closed.

Visited her a few weeks ago, stayed for dinner. It was raining so it wasn't much of a rush but the service was great ! It was my first time there and I loved the bread, the dinner rolls were amazing. All the food that I had was amazing but I did have the tacos to go and to be fair, they were delicious but they were also very spicy which I didn't expect . The ambiance was nice, it definitely gives southern steakhouse and the waitress was really nice.

Arrived at opening to a beautifully decorated but empty restaurant that filled quickly. Our waitress, Nadine, was a joy and so very helpful. She made some great recommendations such as the range rattlers and even the flash fried Brussel sprouts. We ordered the Range Rattlers, Wagon Boss Center Cur Sirlon Steaks (10 oz), Smoked Macaroni and Cheese, and Chicken Tortilla Soup. As per suggestion, we also ordered a side of Brussel Sprouts to split. Everything was wonderful and worth the trip. We told Nadine why we came, and this was the primary destination of a multi day road trip. Delia, the manager, even stopped by and thanked us for making the trip. With terrific food and amazing staff, this is a definite location to visit. Even though it is over a six hour drive, I thought it was worth the time.

I love Saltgrass. The steaks are perfectly cooked and very flavorful. The baked potatoes are always good, not dried out and the salad is fresh. I love the fried mushroom appetizer! For the dessert, the carrot cake cannot be beat! It's the best I have ever eaten! We go about once a month, join Landry's and you earn points as well as other perks like priority seating!

My Favorite Restaurant hands down! My hubby and I love the delicious food, exceptional service and the atmosphere is always the best,

We walked out! First let me say that the decor is very pretty. It looks like a steakhouse in Texas with deer heads and country decor throughout (including the meat wall of wines as you enter). And it seems clean. We were advised that there was a 1.5 hour wait (it's Saturday 5:30pm). Ok it's long but there are comfortable benches inside and some things are worth the wait. The hosts were very rude and rolled their eyes when we said we're ok to wait. Within 10-15 minutes of waiting, we see about 5 employees come huddle behind the hosts and look at their iphones and giggling while some tables are emptying from customers leaving. I'm not a restaurant owner, so I don't know how things work behind doors, but with staff acting like that in the front of the restaurant, I'm going to leave and take my business elsewhere. We left.

It may be Salt Grass Steak House on the outside, but the inside is still screaming Lone Star Steak House. The least they could do is put some effort into the interior decor and at least patch the holes in the walls, I am not sure where the profits from the higher than normal priced steaks are going, obviously they are not going back into the dining experience. They do serve some hearty appetizers, the queso fresco comes with a lot of chips and SODIUM, but not much brisket. This one will definitely keep you running back to the bar! I was a bit disappointed in the chuck wagon cheese fries as I was expecting actual fries, not potato wedges. But if you insist on serving potato wedges instead of fries, might I recommend an oil salt and smoked paprika bath to give them some flavor? Cheese and bacon can only do so much for plain potatoes! I felt they served a good steak and controlled the temperature well, but why would any steakhouse that takes pride in their meat serve A1 steak sauce? Instead of slapping yourself in the face, why not serve a house Bearnaise to compliment the meat rather than soiling it. The staff are great and they do travel off the beaten path to provide a good experience. They have an active following in Knightdale, make sure to call ahead for reservations if you plan to dine out. Cheers!

Saltgrass used to be one of my favorites since moving to North Raleigh. Lately, I've been checking restaurant scores because cleanliness and food safety have become a concern. For Mother's Day, I made reservations to avoid the usual long wait. While waiting, my daughter noticed their 92% score, up from 88%. Despite mixed reviews, I convinced my family to stay. Unfortunately, their food arrived cold on a hot plate, while mine, my husband's, and my granddaughter's were fine. The server quickly took the cold meals back, and the manager apologized, promising to fix the issue. I won't return until their score improves.

I visited the restaurant on a Saturday night. It was packed and busy. I'm so glad I made reservations online. The waitress was nice and attentive. I don't remember her name. I ordered the ribs and they were delicious. My friend ordered the Oscar salmon and she said it was delicious and her favorite item on the menu. Another friend ordered a steak topped with shrimp. The rolls with the cinnamon butter were also delicious. I'm looking forward to going back and trying other items.

This might not be fair, but I'm going to say this - not just for Saltgrass, but any restaurant. When a person says "party of one," don't ask if they want to sit at the bar. If they wanted to sit at the bar, they'd ask. Don't try to place them at a high-top table at the bar. And if booth tables are available, allow them to sit at one. I was a party of one today because my husband died unexpectedly last summer from a brain aneurysm. I shouldn't have to explain that to be treated with the same courtesy as more than one person. I'm very tired of hearing "just three," when I go out with my children. I don't dine alone for the very fear of what happened to me here today. Where I have to plead for a normal table so I can have someone else cook my lunch, and a rare moment being responsibility-free while my kids are at activities. Please train your employees to stop using "just" and please don't force me to explain "look my husband died. I wish I weren't by myself" as you try to seat me somewhere unpleasant. Picture is of the terrible table, where I got to see multiple tables staring at me (there were empty booths when I arrived, but I didn't want to continue conversing with the hostess at this point).

Cheyenne made our trip to Saltgrass extra special! Cheyenne has such a great personality and we didn't have to ask for anything. The food was delicious also! I would give Cheyenne 10 stars, if I could.

The food was delicious and our hostess, BREE, was amazing and super kind to us. However, I demanded to see a manger and Amanda came right way! LOL I just wanted to let her know how amazing BREE is and that our experience was great! Oh and Amanda has a great sense of humor! WE HAD GREAT BOOTH SEATS AND THE LIGHTING WAS COZY

Stopped in for lunch after a morning of busy chores. Our server Kayla was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was not super busy, so speed of service was just right. We order salads with Salmon and one with steak. The greens and ingredients were fresh, the proteins were cooked perfect. The facilities are clean and the noise level was average, they had some cool Johnny Cash playing. Overall, great experience.

Our server, Lonnie, was very cool and is keeping this from being a 3 star review. We had a 6:30 reservation and were sat on the dot. We were greeted immediately by Lonnie and ordered waters and cocktails. She was very busy and it took a while for her to get our orders in, but we saw her working and it was ok. Our salads beat the cocktail to the table though, and that was a bit sad...6:56 when it arrived :-( The bread was good but the butter was a bit weird. Baked potato was excellent, but the broccoli was undercooked. One steak was slightly overcooked - not enough to send back, and the other was very overcooked. The replacement took a long time to get there, and the manager was clearly busy upon dropping it off. I just kept it, but it was not better than the first. The actual taste and flavor of both steaks were excellent though. I'd love to have this same ribeye at the correct temperature. As Knightdale is a 30 minute drive and we were just looking to try something different, I doubt we return. Too many nice places in between here and there that are proven. If we do though, I will definitely call ahead and see if Lonnie is working! (also worth a shout out is the hostess, who stopped what she was doing mid-sentence to greet us and get us seated immediately upon arrival)

10/16/22: My boyfriend had a gift card to use that he had for awhile, so I helped him use it after church. :) We had never been here before. They have steaks and yeast rolls, so you can't really go wrong, right. We ordered country fried steak and mashed potatoes, soup, salad, and a grilled chicken meal. My country fried steak had a somewhat spicy coating on it. I absolutely hated the gravy. It was creamy sausage gravy. I don't like sausage in it. It totally messed up my tastebuds. I ended up giving that to my boyfriend. The server was pretty nice. He wasn't that attentive after our food was brought to us, but he was initially nice. Had he come back, I would've sent that steak back. It sat there and got cold, so my boyfriend just took it to go. He is kind of like Mikey from the old cereal commercials back in the day. He eats anything. I won't say I'd never go back. I will just say it would be my very last choice.

Anyone else feels like this is an extremely overpriced Sizzler? So I get a lunch portion of 1/2 rack of ribs @ $18.99 and paid an up-charge for a loaded bake potato @ $2.49, it was a to-go order ... I got 10 strands of cheddar cheese, no butter, which I asked for extra butter over the phone when I ordered, green onions, sour cream and bacon bits, fine but no butter?? A coworker picked up the order ... the ribs, all fatty and more BBQ sauce on the bottom, the part you don't eat (membrane) than on the top, the meat is absolute crap, what meat there was ... I'm so dissatisfied and annoyed at their prices for what is going out the door ... many times before, we've eaten lunch there and it's always just a shit-show ... the kicker is I am not a picky person! I don't get the hype ... save your money people ... so many other affordable options with better quality ...

Without the great server, Sheresa, the rating would be very low. The place was not crowded at 6pm but the place was very understaffed. It took over an hour to actually get our meal. The server was very attentive and brought us more bread and kept us updated with them waiting for another chef. The food was good when we did get it and we were embarrassed for the server. She kept us updated and we enjoyed each other so we weren't in a hurry but sitting people when they didn't have the staff, or updating the customer before they would be seated would have been much appreciated. Thank you Sheresa!

I have been to Saltgrass now on three different occasions, the first two times the food was really delicious! I ordered the ribeye all three times and the first two times the ribeye was tender and very flavorful. But this last time the ribeye had very little flavor, it seemed like it didn't have hardly any fat in it which would explain why it didn't have any flavor. The fat that it did have was hard and gristly which is nothing like I've experienced with ribeyes before. I don't like to make accusations but it seems like they are trying to pass off another cut of meat as a ribeye. Either that or they just screwed up. I didn't mention it to the server but maybe I should have?

Wish I could give this place a higher rating but my food was not good at all! I ordered grilled chicken with a side of smoked macaroni and cheese and it came out cold! Chicken was extremely tough couldn't even hardly chew . My brother got a cheeseburger that was supposed to be medium rare and came out well done almost burnt! The service was ok waitress was a nice guy but over all I feel they could need some work. The over all of the place was nice and pretty busy. Restrooms were a little dirty but over all I was not happy with my food.

The food was amazing! Loved the chopped steak! Everyone in my group loved it. Nice clean place. Service was pretty good. The guy that brought the food for our waitress was new and apparently wasn't properly trained on how to pass out food. He reached across one of the people with me, twice, to give my wife her food. All in all it was nice.

Went for family dinner; I will say it was packed! We made reservations & it was still a mess....still make a reservation If you can. Otherwise you'll be waiting an hour and a half or more. Our party had to split up into 3 groups. All across the restaurant. Other than that the food was really good ! Appetizers: we started with the tenderloin bites. These were really good ! (Would recommend). Steak was seasoned well! The onions and mushrooms that were swimming in the chimichurri sauce were delicious! I ordered the blackened redfish. Came with shrimp and lump crab in a cream sauce. Delicious ! My husband had the Texas T bone-urban cowboy style (shrimp and butter sauce). The steak didn't need the add-on. It was delicious on its on. They have some of the best steak I've had. Our waitress was kind & patient. She was attentive and served us well. (I wish I had remembered her name ). Would definitely go back. Maybe during less busy time. Highly recommend.

I was very happy to find a Saltgrass location close to my hotel when I was working in the area. I brought one of my coworkers with me for dinner. We were seated promptly. Our server, Jessica, was excellent. We ordered drinks and an appetizer, and also our meals. She spaced everything out very well, allowing us enough time to finish our fried mushroom appetizer before bringing our soup and salad. She kept an eye on our beverages and brought us refills when our glasses were half empty, which was appreciated. I had the baked potato soup, and it was savory and delicious. My coworker had a house salad and it looked fresh and crisp. My grilled salmon was perfectly cooked, baked potato was excellent too. My coworker was very happy with his steak and asparagus. Food and service couldn't have been better. An excellent experience!

Our server, Leah, was delightful. She was humorous and attentive. Definitely the highlight of our experience. Our food was ok. Steaks cooked to the correct temperature with seasoning but the quality of the meat was not the best. Fried shrimp were ok. I forgot to ask for my dressing on the side of my salad, so it came already dressed which luckily was not swimming in the blue cheese dressing and was pretty good. The barrel aged Manhattan my husband ordered was not good, they added Bénédictine to the mix which made the drink taste off. The restaurant itself was dirty and outdated. All the knickknacks and walls have not been cleaned in some time. It was a holiday, so perhaps the floor had not gotten the attention it deserves but, in general, carpeted flooring gets unclean quickly in a restaurant. Overall, it's a chain restaurant and it's about what you would expect of it.

Food was great! Service could have been better. The waitress lied and said my gift cards had 0$ balance. Ask for manager, and she was able to get my gift cards to apply.

Vaqueros tacos is a waste of resources Shrimp cocktail was a winner!!!!10ct was a meal!

Oh, goodness, how I have never been here before?! Listen, just hear me out. It's a chain but give it a go. They have a ribeye that'll make you happy on the saddest day and brisket queso dip to add the cherry on top. Excellent!! We had the best server named Rachel. She's a sweet girl and very attentive and real. She was on top of things and never let our drinks get empty and responded quickly to our requests. This would make a good laid back date spot or a great family outing because the layout and decor is more of a country/western kind which fits in with good steaks amd they have tv's in the bar area so you don't have to miss the game. I have to also mention the baked potatoes and mac 'n cheese are also fantastic. Oh and eat the bread. Sooo good! The butter is like KINDA like apple butter but more like butter. (Chef's kiss) Will definitely return with any given opportunity.

Update, we went back and the service was excellent and the food amazing. Thanks for training staff

From entering the restaurant, and being greeted in a friendly manner, to final bill, our visit was perfect. Bill, our server, greeted us in a timely manner, even with the restaurant busy, brought rolls and drink order. We opted for the jalapeño shrimp appetizer and loaded potato soup as starters. Both were amazing! A nice twist on the shrimp jalapeño! Their dressings are housemade, and although not a fan of the typical Ranch dressing, theirs is phenomenal. The Bleu cheese was also delicious. The house salad, fresh ingredients including, tomatoes, iceberg, freshly grated strands of cheddar and housemade croutons. Their wedge salad is large enough to share and was equally good. I had the Salmon Oscar, oh my. Only ate half, with side of broccoli. Oh, forgot to mention their yeast rolls, fresh, hot yummy! Served with cinnamon butter. Daughter enjoyed filet, cooked perfectly. Baked sweet potato was large. Son enjoyed ribeye and smoked mac and cheese. Ordered cheesecake to take home. Large enough to share. Strawberry puree, white chocolate sauce. Yes, definitely carried home leftovers, but man. All so good. Looking for to our next visit.

Love going to this place with my mom to share a bottle of wine over some good steaks and a wonderfully made salad. It just so happens the customer service here is top notch. Not only did we get the awesome Ms. Jessica as our waitress but the manager was always in sight and checking in on our table. I was there recently to celebrate a birthday and though they were no longer serving our favorite brand of Reisling, I still throughly enjoyed my Urban Cowboy NY Strip (server with four grilled shrimp and a lemon butter sauce) with baked potato and Caesar salad. The bread was a perfect touch as well. I'm tempted to order takeout from this place just talking about it.

We went to Saltgrass for dinner and my GOD this place is HEAVENLY. We started with fried mushrooms and loved them. We ordered steaks and a kids Ribs platter. The ribs fell off the bone. It was all so amazing. The rolls were to die for. They were light and fluffy and the butter had a strong cinnamon taste to them. Our waitress was amazing and very attentive. She went above and beyond for us. Our food all turned out amazing. Our steaks all cooked perfectly. Potatoes and sweet potatoes were amazing. It was wonderful. We can't wait to go back!!!

We come here often enough, but tonight we had the pleasure to be served by Albert. Best service we've had anywhere in a while! He was kind, quick, and thoughtful-- he made sure our baby's food came out ASAP and it was the first time in a long time that the ticket was timed perfectly so we had time to enjoy our app before the salads came, and then the entrees arrived just as we finished with the salads! Cannot sing his praises enough. He's a keeper, management!

I took my family here and the food was so delicious. The place was busy, but the server still had time to fill drinks. Didn't catch his name, but he remembered I didn't like onions. Highly recommend, ill be back soon! Thank you so much for the great time we had Mr. Manager!

Food was amazing. Ribeye was made as requested medium and it was juicy and tender. Paired with the fried onions and baked sweet potato. Oh did I mention the great cheese fries???Never knew we had this Texas treasure in our backyard.

This is a great establishment in the Knightdale- area, adjacent to the RDU area. Staff is always friendly. A little front check in issues that could improve but overall good spot. This time I had the ribs. 4 out 5 stars but this side salad they serve with it 5 stars. Follow us for more reviews , marketing and entrepreneur promotion on Instagram @trianglemarketingsolutions

This was a great lunch spot, I imagine a great dinner spot as well. When we arrived, there was a line out the door to get in. However, the staff worked fast and efficiently to get everyone seated within minutes. When we were seated we were introduced to our waiter who was very friendly. He brought out the bread first, and the butter that went with the bread was our favorite part of the meal. I know we sound like fatties, but that butter was the best I've ever had. It tastes like it was mixed with cinnamon and honey, and it was soft and whipped. For our actual meal we ordered chicken lavedo with a side of potato soup and Mac n cheese. My husband ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The "favorites" section of the menu came with your pick of a side, and a soup or salad. I had the potato soup and it was good. This meal was very filling. Someone needs to roll me home.
