Dry Creek Grill

Meant to come for a long time and never did. Really glad, I finally had dinner here. Very pleasant evening. Great and friendly service from reception through the entire dinner. The atmosphere is very nice and the food was excellent. I had the stone fruit salad and the chicken. Both were delicious. Accompanied by a nice selection of cocktails and a good wine list. Absolutely recommend.

We had a big party. Our party sampled from each other's plates. Most of us agreed the food was excellent and we couldn't find any dish that we didn't like! Our server was attentive. Our party arrived with children and he treated them kindly and took their orders as well. We had a great time and a great meal! Unfortunately, the bus person turned off the mood while he was clearing the table. Some of us went to the washroom and some of us were getting ready to go and sitting at the table. Then, he (the busguy) started piling dishes in front of me. In the beginning, I didn't mind but one of the dinnerware slipped out of the plate while he was clearing the plates off the table. It could have dropped on one of us. But "Mr. Bus guy" didn't seem to mind, he continued with the same pattern. "Here, let me push dishes to the side so don't bring them over the children", I said and pushed the dish pile off the side of the children but the bus guy ignored and continued. Bringing plates or even table mats over people's heads is kind of rude and unnerving. Recommendation: swordfish, carbonara, Stroganoff, risotto, half chicken, ravioli, Angus burger, meatloaf, Mac&cheese, baked beans (excellent), French onion soup (pretty darn good too)

We have been here several times and love to sit at the bar. 5 stars for the food and ambiance but service could improve. The female bartender was nice but never checked on us once we received our dinner. In fact another manager took our order because she was too busy. We received our food pretty quickly. Calamari was delicious. We ordered the filet mignon and brussel sprouts with bacon. Filet was so perfect! The brussel sprouts were just ok. Nothing special. Not bad but nothing to make me want to order again. Drinks were delicious! We would've ordered wine but we couldn't get the bartender's attention at the end of the bar. We will be back because we love the food and we get more attention from the chefs and cooks than the bartenders. Best part when you sit at the bar since kitchen is right behind you! Maybe she was just having a bad day. We all have been there! You must try this place at least once. The food is always amazing! The restaurant decor is gorgeous!

I'm from Texas so saying you have Texas style BBQ in California raised some questions. The brisket is perfectly cooked, but the flavor profile is different than in central Texas. That said I'll order it again as it is delicious. This trip I had the meatloaf and it was wonderful, I highly recommend it if you like meatloaf. The salads were fresh and tasty and the creme brulee was over the top. Can't wait to come back for another taste of Dry Creek Grill BBQ

There are some restaurants that offer consistent service, great food and wonderful ambience and Dry Creek Grill is a great example. This hidden gem is an excellent restaurant with exceptional service, drinks and cuisine. We started off with cocktails, Sucker Punch and classic Manhattan. Enjoyed the Korean Fried chicken wings as a starter. Our entrees include their delicious angus prime cheeseburger with fries and a ceasar salad with grilled salmon. Shared a wonderful dessert and an espresso martini. Delightful. The restaurant is in a shopping center off Meridian Avenue and Hamilton. There is plenty of parking. You can also enjoy their fire pit outside the front of the restaurant while waiting for friends or a table.
