Best restaurants near me in Salado, TX

We had read prior reviews and so we did a good job ordering. As in other reviews, the chicken paillard was fantastic. It was very moist and in our opinion was not overly salty. The accompanying greens were good but had a little more vinegar than we would prefer. The mashed potatoes were amazing, favorite thing we ate!! The burger and fries were good as were the biscuits. We had read that the pretzel bites were hard and are glad we did not order them as we overheard the table next to us say the exact same thing that we had read. And we also heard someone commenting that the artichoke dip wasn’t so great and that it needed more cheese. Stick with the biscuit appetizer.

We were there for lunch. I wish the dinner menu would’ve been available.

I loved the lobster tails, scampi style & thought the pasta was a wonderful accompaniment. Also the chopped salad was crisp & had the perfect amount of salad dressing. The only downer was the red fish crudo. The main flavor was an overwhelming lime taste. It would've been much better in a "tears of the tiger" sauce or with some wasabi to make it more sushi-like. Serving it with crackers would help also and the avocados were unsalted. I've tried almost the whole Red Ash menu - the crudo is my least favorite dish. Try any of the other appetizers instead!

This is a fantastic venue for a work lunch. The atmosphere is elegant, and the attention to detail is evident in everything, from the ambient candles in the bathroom to the beautifully presented mocktails we enjoyed. I have two minor suggestions for improvement: first, our table for four felt a bit cramped given the size of the plates, and second, while we ordered three dips, we felt that the pita was not replenished as frequently as we would have liked. Overall, however, I would rate the experience a solid 10/10. I highly recommend this establishment and look forward to returning in the future.

Service and dishes were superb........enjoyed our gathering with our good 👍 friend on a remembrance dinner for the birthday of my sister who passed away 9 years ago 😢❤️! It's a place we continue to go to and it never disappoints!
