I don’t always eat at Saltgrass Steakhouse, but when I do, it is always at lunch and either the Beef Tips with Mushrooms or the Chicken Fried Steak. And it is usually chilly outside. They do a great job with both of these lunch offerings and I really like their Mac & Cheese and Herbed Rice and the garlic mashed potatoes that come with both dishes. The Shiner Bock Beer Bread with honey butter is a great start to any lunch. I can’t say anything about the rest of the menu because I’ve only eaten lunch there and I always go by myself and sit at the bar. It is hard to go there without missing the Blue Coyote which I did visit with friends for impromptu margarita nights with chips, salsa, tacos and tamales. Superior Grill fills that space now, but those were some very good times and the two story wall of tequila bottles behind the bar was always an impressive sight. To me there is always a lingering nostalgia when one restaurant concept replaces another. Round the Corner/Pizza Hut/Serrano’s/Barcadia on Highland Road at the south gates of LSU is a good example of tenants passing through. The Colonel’s Club/Trinity’s/Chelsea’s/Kalurah Street Grill is another venue haunted by it’s past.
